Chapter 54 A Deal Priced One Hundred Million Dollars
"Like I said, you could only see my face, " said Hiram. He had already put on the bathrobe that Rachel
had brought to him and was now tying it with his eyes on the vigilant woman.
After Hiram left the bathroom, Rachel heaved a sigh of relief. She stood in front of the misted-up mirror
and wiped off the steam clouded on it. She coyly looked at herself in the mirror.
'Rachel, you are already twenty-six years old. Why are you so shy? Even a younger girl would have
had more courage than you did, ' Rachel thought to herself.
'Hiram was obviously making fun of you. Why did you close your eyes? Why didn't you dare to look at
his body? Why couldn't you just face him directly?
He has a well-toned body, and he has such an honorable social status. You won't suffer any loss even
if you see his body! So why not?'
A few moments later, Rachel stepped out of the bathroom. She saw Hiram leaning against the headrest
of the bed, reading the file in his hands. The loose silky bathrobe didn't completely cover his long and
sexy legs. His muscular and hairy shins were exposed in the air, radiating masculinity.
Rachel felt considerably less embarrassed now. She was becoming bolder. Maybe it was because she
had already seen parts of his body earlier, or maybe it was because she had overcome her shyness
after what she had thought to herself in the bathroom. Now, she couldn't keep her eyes away from
Hiram's body.
She took out a bottle of cold water from the refrigerator and drank a few mouthfuls to slowly compose
herself.
"It's normal for a man and a woman to have mutual attraction to each other. I understand your desire
for me, it's quite normal. You don't need to feel shy about it, "
Hiram said smilingly, looking up from his file and watching Rachel behaving awkwardly.
Rachel abruptly put down the bottle of water and walked towards him. She pointed to herself and
asked, "What did you say? I desire you?"
"Am I wrong? I saw the eager look in your eyes, " teased Hiram. He kept smiling and lowered his head
to look at the papers in his hand, and went on to say, "If you do feel lonely and you can't control your
lust, I'll consider doing my obligation to you as your husband."
"You..." Rachel was dumbfounded by his words. It took her a moment to find her voice again. She let
out a hum, raised her chin and said, "I think you're just doing this on purpose to try and embarrass me,
right?
Or maybe you're the one who is feeling lonely and can't control your lust, am I right?"
Hiram didn't get angry. He turned a page in his file and replied, "Yes, you're right. I desire you. So, are
you going to satisfy my lust?"
"Are you trying to irritate me?" Rachel finally grasped what he was implying. He was beating around the
bush to say that she hadn't truly become his wife. She hadn't done what a wife should do. NôvelDrama.Org © content.
"Am I? I was just speaking the truth. Anyway, at least I had the courage to admit it. But what about
you? You don't dare to admit your desire." Hiram seemed to understand Rachel's weak points very
much. He knew how to provoke her into facing the true feelings in her heart.
Rachel was irritated by his words. Her eyes fumed with rage. She clenched her fists and stared at him.
Moments later, she took a deep breath and walked towards the bed. She pretended to be flirtatious and
said playfully, "I can do my obligation as a wife, too. But, you know, we have a marriage contract. If you
really want to sleep with me... Then okay, I can give myself to you, but I need to be paid for it! I can
give you a price."
If Hiram wanted her to do some thing that was not written in their contract, of course he needed to pay
for it.
It's not like they were a real couple now.
Rachel's words triggered Hiram's curiosity. He closed his file and flung it to the desk before turning
back to Rachel with a playful glimmer in his eyes.
"You need to be paid?" he teased. "Tell me, what makes you valuable? Let me see if you deserve a
price."
Rachel chuckled. She sat on the bed, stroked his silky bathrobe with her fingers and said, "Don't you
think that you've become luckier ever since you met me? I've suffered all your dangers and bad luck
instead of you. Even the trouble in my company last time actually helped you find and kick out a
useless person from the company in the end. So basically, I always bring you good luck. I'm an
advantage.
And what's more... I haven't had a boyfriend yet. Though I had been on blind dates with men, I've never
succeeded in getting one. I haven't had an intimate relationship with anyone. So...I am still a...virgin.
More importantly, I'm legally your wife. You don't have the mental pressure of having to shoulder any
responsibility."
Hiram grabbed hold of her hands and gripped them tightly in his palms. Although she spoke in a
straightforward way, he could sense the shyness in her voice.
Hiram, of course, understood her intention. She was just fighting against him verbally. She didn't really
mean to give herself to him.
However, he said, "That sounds reasonable. Fine, then, what's your price? I'll count it together with
your compensation payment." He waited for her response without loosening his grips on her hands. If
the deal was done, she would belong to him forever.
Rachel wanted to draw her hands back, but his grips were too strong. She could see the seriousness in
Hiram's deep eyes. She took a deep breath. She had no choice but to gather up her courage before
saying, "One hundred million dollars. I want the money now. Can you afford it?"
Hiram burst into laughter. His Adam's apple quivered as he laughed and his eyes lit up. He suddenly
pulled her into his arms.
"Okay, deal!"
His loud and firm voice echoed around the whole room.
"Tell me your account number. I'll transfer the money to you in ten minutes, " said Hiram.
Rachel was astonished. Was he serious? She couldn't believe that this man would be willing to spend
so much money getting a woman.
But if she didn't tell him her account number now, wouldn't she become the most stupid woman in the
world?
He was willing to pay so much money just to take her virginity. No woman would refuse such a large
amount money!
Moreover, he was legally her husband, So there was no need for her to pretend to be noble. Why not
accept it?
"Let go of me. I'll go find my bank card now, " Rachel said in a trembling voice.
Seeing the look in Rachel's eyes, Hiram loosened his grips on her. Barely controlling his laughter, he
watched her stand up and take her card out of her handbag.
Hiram then dialed a number and said on the phone, "Hello, it's me. Transfer one hundred million dollars
to an account. I'll send you the account number soon."
In less than ten minutes, Rachel received a message from the bank saying that her card had received
one hundred million dollars. Seeing the huge amount of money with her own eyes, it finally hit Rachel.
She asked nervously, "Hiram, are you serious?"
"Of course I'm serious. Did I say that I was joking?" Hiram asked.
"But...but...you are spending so much money just in order to have...sex with me? Are you insane?"
Reachel put her hand on his forehead to feel his temperature. He didn't even have a fever. But why had
he given her so much money so easily? It was one hundred million dollars!!
But Hiram looked so relaxed without the slightest trace of a frown, as if it was just a small amount of
money for him.
"Rachel, you will gradually find out that I'm not fond of making jokes, " said Hiram.
Rachel hadn't been aware of how much value she held to him.
