Contract Marriage: Billionaire and His Deaf Wife-Chapter 992: Escape from Danger (Part 3)

Rogers, Jim, and the others were all watching Ou Chunhua’s performance with such astonishment. Because when they looked over, on Gu Nuan’s not particularly beautiful, merely average features, they couldn’t find any trace of the kind of allure that could captivate men, let alone worthy of being called a seductress.

To an old man as wealthy as Rogers, what kind of beauty in the world hasn’t he seen or been involved with? What is Gu Nuan’s level of attractiveness to him?

At most, it’s just that this woman calling him a fraud has piqued his interest a bit.

Rogers scratched his chin: "Previously, someone had whispered a related rumor to me, saying that a person with the surname Gu would come to my place with the intention of causing a scene."

Gu Nuan’s lips curved slightly: "Let me guess, who told you this? Was it perhaps the person wearing the fox mask?"

Rogers’ small gray eyes flickered, and he said, "You seem to know something. But surely you don’t know, there’s a saying that you Chinese often say—"

"Disaster comes from careless talk, right?"

"Exactly!" Rogers raised both hands high, like the male lead singing an aria in an opera house.

The atmosphere at the scene instantly became tense and fraught.

Tang Sili’s usually calm and composed face flashed a trace of pallor, and it seemed that now they were doomed.

Rogers’ eyes suddenly fell on Tang Sili: "Is he your man?"

"He’s just someone who works for money," Gu Nuan said.

Tang Sili lowered his eyes slightly. Subsequently, he stepped back a few paces, distancing himself from Gu Nuan.

Such an action could completely be understood as betrayal of Gu Nuan.

Rogers’ mouth formed an "O" shape, seemingly sweeping over the faces of Gu Nuan and Tang Sili in shock and fear: "Is this how you Chinese do things? I originally thought that the loyalty and righteousness often depicted in your TV dramas were true?"

"There’s nothing strange about it. In this world, who doesn’t love money? That’s why I say, I absolutely wouldn’t spread rumors about you, Mr. Rogers," Gu Nuan said.

Rogers’ small eyes flickered again: "Indeed, you’re a very smart woman. Given that you’ve walked into my territory, even just to stay alive, it wouldn’t make sense to say such things in my place. But, indeed, what you might say once you’re out of my domain is not something I can control, is it?"

Gu Nuan’s chest slowly rose and fell, and she alone knew that besides working hard to steady her breathing to seem under control, she was trying her hardest to save the life inside her that was slipping away.

As for what Rogers was saying to her, whether or not he intended to kill her, it was far less important than the little life slipping away at this moment.

Tang Sili kept his eyes lowered, not daring to look at her condition.

If this continues, not to mention him, even a celestial being would find it difficult—

Rogers took a step forward, reaching Gu Nuan’s side. Looking down at the face of this ordinary woman before him, his strange lips twitched as he said, "Do you think I might still let you go?"

"You can hand me over to the police."

Hahaha. Even Rogers couldn’t help but laugh loudly.

Beside him, Jim glanced at Gu Nuan with a look of astonishment.

What kind of rational thinking does this woman have, to still be able to say something like that at this moment.

"Did you just say to hand you to the police?"
