Can't Resist the Billionaire novel Chapter 54

Perhaps this action irritated Christopher again, he reared his head with embarrassment. After a while he straightened up and threatened me with a scowl. "Do not force me into an impasse. Otherwise, no one will like the result. I don't want to ruin your parents' reputation either."

"You... Son of a b*tch!" Christopher knew both me as well as my family very well. Just like he said, my parents took their reputation higher than anything else. If my naked pictures went viral, they may want to die.

"I am a b*stard, but I love you. I don't want to share you with others! Christopher touched my head, but this time he was not as gentle as before. Instead, he forced me to look him straight in his amber eyes. "Jasmine, I have no further demands of you. I just hope we can be like before, is that okay?"

"We can never be like before!" I said, gnashing my teeth in anger.

Christopher's expression froze, a hint of ruthlessness flashing in his eyes. "How would you know if you didn't even try?"

Naomi, standing behind him, saw that Christopher seemed reluctant to let me go. She shouted angrily at her brother, "Christopher, what are you doing? She has already been a slut, and you are still not disgusted with her? We have her naked photos right now, and she wouldn't dare to tell that to Vincent. She then could make us money for years! Dad's usury be paid off by then?"

"Enough!" Christopher was deeply stimulated by Naomi's words. He turned around and glared at Naomi, but it didn't work. Naomi continued to trashed me and persuaded her brother, "Don't be so fool. With money, what kind of woman won't you have? Why do you even want such a slut? It feels not good to be a cuckold, isn't it?" 

"Bam!" Before Naomi could finish, Christopher suddenly slapped her, leaving five red marks on her pale face. Naomi was so scared that she touched her face and did not speak for a long time.

She might not have thought that her brother, who used to love her so much, would slap her face for a woman.

"Brother, what are you doing?" Tears of despair immediately ran down Naomi's cheeks, but this didn't get Christopher's compassion. It only made her angrier.

"Get out! Christopher ordered loudly in a hoarse voice.

Naomi was stunned for a few seconds before she finally understood that it was her Christopher wanted to disappear. She angrily stomped her foot on the ground and fiercely glared at me. Suddenly, she rushed out of the room.

Naomi's gone. Only Christopher and I were still in the room. I looked coldly at Christopher, who was in pain. In fact, I felt upset, too.

It was impossible for me to have no feelings at all for this man, but the hatred to him was enough to instil in me a world-shaking hatred for him.

However, no matter how much I hated him, he was still the man I had chosen and pursued by efforts. To be his girl, I had expended so much energy. This path was truly unforgettable.

"Your sister is right. I am a bitch who's been messed up. You do not have to do this. Did not Vincent promise you ten million to buy me? Is not ten million enough to pay off your debt?"

Christopher's fingers spasmed together, while blue veins stood out on his face. Suddenly he said, "I don't want any money. I just want you back. Do you understand?"

"Huh, Christopher, I really don't understand you. Do you care about me or not? Or Do you see that someone wants me now and reckon I'm still a woman 'in demand' and reluctant to let me go?"

I pretended to be free and easy as I shook my hair and looked coldly at Christopher. I scoffed, "But this world is not as good as what you think. Let me tell you the truth. I really like Vincent right now. He treats me very well and is much better than you, so you can not keep me here!"

"Vincent is a son of a b*tch. If they hadn't forced me, I wouldn't have agreed to such a filthy thing." Christopher seemed to have been provoked. He furiously punched the wall behind me. The wall didn't crack, but his fist was bleeding.

I turned to look at his bleeding fist and frowned. I couldn't a little bear it, but my body didn't move. "What do you mean? Did you even forced by people to do that kind of thing? If you don't agree, who dares to force you?"

"You know nothing at all. You know nothing!" Christopher suddenly withdrew his hand, looking somewhat upset. He hugged his head and sat down beside him on the sofa with an exasperated expression. He sighed with a hesitant expression and said to me, "It's Vincent's father. He's the one who controls everything!"

I looked at him incredulously. Seeing that he did not mean to mock me, I suddenly raised my voice and asked him, "What is going on here? Explain!"

He said that everything was controlled by Vincent's father. Then what role did Vincent play in this matter?

Who should I trust? How could I distinguish among their words?

Maybe Christopher did not want to keep it a secret anymore, so he told me honestly, "My father had borrowed a usurious loan a few months ago for his company that was on the verge of bankruptcy, but he wasn't able to pay it back. So the loan sharks started forced him, and he got sick since then. When we married, our family was in an extremely difficult time. At the time, I was afraid you would see my situation, so I lied that my family did not approve, but I could not bear to let you go, so I had our marriage registered privately with you. I knew I was being selfish, but I really loved you!"

Christopher looked at me with a pained expression as he said, "It's all my fault. If I hadn't brought you to Vincent, he wouldn't have fallen for you. Vincent is the only son of his family, but he hasn't been in a good relationship with his father. In order to ease their relationship, his father came to me and asked me to give you to Vincent. But how could I have accepted that? And then... the next day, I had a car accident and bumped into someone. Everything happened so coincidentally. I guessed that it was done by his father. I asked his father about it later, and his father admitted. But the loan were driving my family crazy, and I..."

"So the car accident was your last straw, and you sold me out just like that?" Although Christopher's explanation made me understand the real reason behind his actions, I still could not forgive him. Who gave him the right to give me to another man without my consent?
