Chapter 927 Refusing Is Useless
“If you won’t speak, prepare yourself for a visit to the hospital.” Ariel was skilled in kickboxing, making it
well within her abilities to break someone’s bones. Upon saying that, she tightened her grip once more.
Tearing up with pain, the woman yelped, “Ow, ow, ow! You’re hurting me! I’m Clara Hissinger, Mr.
Abbott’s niece and your cousin! Let go of me now!” “Cousin?” After hearing Camren’s name, Ariel
pondered for a moment before letting her go.
Clara soothed her aching wrist, her seductive features twisting into a furious expression as she said in
a hurt and indignant tone, “I only came over because I heard that my cousin was here and wanted to let
her know that Mr. Abbott’s family doesn’t need to pay for their meals in Wegas, but this is how you
repay my kindness!”
Ariel’s eyes narrowed, a glint flashing past her eyes as she pondered the plausibility of Clara’s words.
While she was distracted, Clara seized the opportunity and collapsed on top of Danny, sneakily shoving
a name card into his suit pocket.
“Damn, stay away from me, you jinx!” Danny wanted nothing else but to stay away from her. He
immediately pushed her away before stumbling to his feet and taking refuge behind Ariel.
“Hehe, you’re adorable.” Clara laughed uncaringly, sending him a coy and charming gaze as she said,
“We’ll have plenty of time to spend together in the future. I have an appointment later, so I’ll be taking
my leave. Bye, Ariel. Bye, Danny.”
After giving Danny a flirtatious look, she turned around and sashayed away, her winsome appearance
lingering in their minds long after she had departed.

As soon as the sound of her heels faded away, Danny began to shiver in an attempt to shake his
goosebumps off, saying disdainfully as he walked away, “Who exactly is that woman?”
It was the first time he had seen someone clinging onto their brother-in-law as she had. The others
exchanged glances at his question, just as unfamiliar to this strange yet unruly woman as him.
“Miss Hissinger really is Mr. Abbott’s niece. She grew up abroad, so her personality is a little unusual.”
Gale voluntarily offered his opinion.
Though his words were implicit and did not touch on her imprudence, the rest knew what he truly
meant. Fortunately, the minor incident was disregarded soon after.
After returning to the hotel, Elise sought Alexander’s opinion. “What do you think about Gale?”
“He’s an opportunist who knows how to manipulate people’s hearts and minds. He’s very ambitious, but
he’s also very good at hiding it,” he replied, hitting the nail on the head.
“What if Wendy sent him?” Elise asked dubiously.
“We should wait and see for now.”
After all, he was from BJ Biotech, which made him useful, and Alexander didn’t want to let this trump
card go to waste.
He walked over with two glasses of red wine and handed one of them to Elise before taking a seat next
to her. “We’re on someone else’s property, and it won’t be easy to defeat them. That’s why we have to
take the time to deploy the right people or we’ll get into trouble if we’re too hasty.”
Although they arranged to visit Wegas long ago, their plans had been brought forward, resulting in the
deployment of most of Smith Co.’s men being cut short. To avoid unnecessary complications,
Alexander wanted to make sure that every step of the way went as smoothly as possible.
Just as he finished speaking, Alexia immediately barged in while yelling, “Emergency! I have an
emergency!”
As she ran, she dove into Elise’s embrace, whining with a serious expression, “Mommy, where’s my
sister? I’m going to grow up before I get a new sister!”
“I agree.” All of a sudden, Irvin appeared by the entrance with his hands in his pockets, his uncaring
expression making him seem both callous and cheeky.
Hearing that, Alexander pursed his lips slyly before he turned around to gaze at Elise affectionately.
“Mrs. Griffith, stop resisting and live up to the people’s expectations.”
When she saw him feigning innocence, Elise was instantly filled with denial and scooted away from him
forcibly. “Kids, consent is important in our family. It’s my belly, so it’s my rules. If I don’t want a child, I
won’t have one, okay?”
“I refuse!” Alexia protested heatedly.
“Refusing is useless!” Elise refuted in a heartless voice.
“Hmph!”
The mother-daughter duo simultaneously crossed their arms before their chests as though they were
two furious dolls. The sight greatly delighted Alexander and Irvin as they both wore matching smiles.
Suddenly, Alexander called out to her. “Honey.”
“What? Mmph—”
The moment Elise turned around, Alexander instantly leaned forward and pressed a kiss on her lips.
Caught off guard, she attempted to push him away, but the slippery couch caused her to sink further
into his embrace instead. Elise’s face turned red, and she began hitting him with her small fists.
What is he doing? The kids are still here!
“Oh, that’s great! I’m going to have a sister!”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAlexia recalled that Irvin had explained in the past this was a game that adults used to express their
affection. Hence, she assumed that the more they expressed their affection, the sooner she would
have a sister, and began to clap wildly next to them, leading to an awkward sight—Alexander ‘bullying’
Elise while her daughter cheered them on. Fortunately, Irvin tactfully swept in and carried his sister out
without forgetting to close the door before he left.
After hearing the door close, Alexander became even bolder, easily loosening Elise’s guard using his
familiarity with Elise’s body. Elise wasn’t a match for him and was only able to leave herself to his
devices. However, she refused to take things sitting down, and she tormented him wildly as soon as
she was on top, her anger only dissipating after seeing him begging for more. With their children’s
support, their long battle finally ended in the night, and they fell into a deep slumber.
…
Meanwhile, in the Cuber Residence, Jamie led Princess for a walk on the lawn, circling the manor until
they approached the villa, where he deliberately slowed down and played with Princess where he
stood. Soon, his efforts were not wasted. Gale’s car emerged by the manor not long after the sky
darkened, showing that Narissa just had another perfect date.
Jamie lowered his head and swung the leash in his hands, his eyes despondent. As he looked into
Princess’ eyes which were still somewhat melancholic, he scoffed coldly and couldn’t help but laugh at
himself mockingly. What he lost to wasn’t Gale’s power, nor was it Narissa’s impatience, but it was his
indecisiveness. In the end, he had gotten what he deserved.
A long moment later, he returned to his senses and tugged on the leash irritably. “Time to go back,
Princess.”
The tamed dog now depended on him even more and immediately did as she was told, wagging her
tail and running back. After returning to Princess’ room, he fed her some food and took a seat, leaning
against her bed as he muttered to himself.
“Look, I’ve treated you, so you have to help her from now on, all right?”
