Three Treasures: Spoiled Wife Goes Wild

The woman's clear eyes suddenly widened, "You investigated me?"

"You suddenly left last night, even if it was for my hospitalized brother, it still needs to be confirmed for your safety." Justin Battleson said indifferently.

"For your brother?" Sophie Allen sneered, mockingly said, "If you really cared for your brother, would you have said those words to me while he's in the hospital?"

"Just testing you," he answered loftily.

Sophie furrowed her brows, biting her teeth in secret.

This man was obviously bullying her!

"Which hospital is Ryan being treated?" she immediately asked.

She did not want to continue this back-and-forth with his older brother; at the moment all she wanted was to borrow money from her fake husband.

"What, trying to tattle to my brother?" Justin scoffed, his mood spontaneously lightening.

"I have no need to tattle, I simply have a small private matter with him." Sophie avoided the man's direct gaze.

Justin's eyes darkened as he somberly said: "If there's an issue, you can find me."

"No need." Sophie immediately refused.

"I know you have a relative in need of surgery, and you want to borrow money from Ryan." The cold, deeply certain voice.

Sophie, having been enlightened about his investigations, was no longer surprised. She simply said, "Yes, to borrow money."

After confirming this, Justin slightly bent down, their bodies about to touch.

Sophie wanted to avoid him, but the man's hands were gripping the table's surface, effectively trapping her within his arms.

She wrinkled her brows in discomfort.

In the next second, she heard his indifferent voice in her ear, "Ryan's in the ICU."

Sophie blurted out in surprise, "Is his condition that serious?"

The instant those words left her mouth, she happened to meet the man's cold gaze, causing a chill to run down her spine.

"I can lend it to you." Justin released his grip, standing up straight and gazing down at the woman before him.

Sophie hurriedly shuffled to the side, remaining on guard as she said, "No need."

Three simple words of refusal again.

Justin squinted slightly, sneered, "You're so close with Henry Hudson, didn't he waive your medical fees?"

"Mr. Battleson, Mr. Hudson and I are friends. He kindly helped me, but I don't want to owe favors." Sophie retorted.

Sophie met his inquisitive gaze undeterred, her eyes silently proclaiming, "Ryan promised to lend me the money. I also wrote an IOU, which is why I am planning to find him in the hospital. I'm not simply taking the Battleson Family's money, I will repay it."

Her tenacity left Justin slightly taken aback.

"If there is nothing else, I will leave first." Sophie didn't want to share the same space with this man any longer.

The pressure he exuded was too overwhelming, she was feeling stifled.

Moreover, there had been very awkward incidences between them.

Just as Sophie turned to leave, her arm was abruptly held back.

Sophie turned back to meet the man's icy stare, and felt a shiver run down her spine.

"Is... Is there anything else?" She was inexplicably afraid of him.

The man's lips slightly parted, "You're still in college, repaying this money without interest will take at least ten years."

"I know, repaying this money might take a very long time, but that's what Ryan agreed on." Sophie was somewhat worried.

She was worried that Justin would intentionally cause disruption, so she quickly mentioned her husband who was still in the intensive care unit.

"Sophie Allen, you should actually consider my conditions." Justin's eyes were deep, his long eyes exposing a hint of a smile.

Sophie was taken aback, his conditions?

He said last night... one million for a month...

"No need to owe him, no need to repay, consider it carefully and find me when you're ready." The man said darkly.
