Your Guise Is Slipping, Miss Pearl romance Capítulo 275

410 thousand dollars was nothing to the Sanders.

Christian didn't look at her but just blushed. "How could I ask you for money? Have you ever seen a man ask his crush… his cousin for money?"

"Crush?" Esther was very sensitive to that word and immediately picked up on what he had said. She exclaimed in a shocked voice, "Chris, but you're my cousin!"

Christian clenched his jaw, frustrated by how agitated she had become. "I'm not your cousin. Your real cousin passed away shortly after birth. I was adopted from an orphanage, and I've known about it for a long time."

"But we're still family."

"Why can't I have feelings for you just because we're technically cousins? I didn't work with Lawson Enterprises only to borrow money from them. I wanted to get you out of the entertainment industry. You're a big star, and so many people adore you. Even Mobius has ulterior motives. I might not be good enough for you, but if you leave the industry, I might have a chance. Esther, I really like you…"

Christian began to look unhinged, and Esther sensed it. Alarm bells rang in her head, and she quickly dialed someone on her phone.

"Esther, only I can have you. I've watched you grow up. You can only be mine!" He lunged at her and began tugging at her clothes.

"Esther, you're a woman now, so I can finally have you…"

Christian had lived a rough life and had been in many fights, making him quite strong. Esther was pinned down and could only sink her teeth into his wrist, leaving behind a painful set of bite marks.
