Chapter 87 What if I Frighten Her?

In the darkness, a tall figure pressed Cora against the door, causing a momentary panic in her heart.But when Cora heard the familiar voice and caught his familiar scent, she relaxed slightly and quicklyturned on the nearby light.

Their gazes met as the light came on.

Cora sensed a hint of reproach in Byron's eyes.

With what he had said, this man seemed angry at her for not disclosing their relationship.However, Cora dismissed it as an illusion.

Surely, someone as esteemed as him wouldn't care about such trivial matters.

Convincing herself, Cora replied with a light smile, "Mr. Hansen, the unpresentable is me, not you."Nonetheless, something in her response seemed to displease him as a trace of coldness crept intohis expression.

Byron released the firm grip around her waist, and the warmth that was present a moment agovanished. Cora felt somewhat uneasy, for she had sensed his intense reaction earlier when hepressed close to her, but now he seemed distant.

She figured that perhaps it was because Jane was also on the ship tonight.

He must not have time to bother with her.

"Please close the door before you leave for Dr. Yoris."

Without another word, Cora entered the bathroom.

The chilly night breeze was too much for her, and her body almost froze even with her knit dress on.Cora intended to take a warm bath before getting some rest.

However, just as she had taken off her clothes, she found herself suddenly enveloped by Byron'sembrace from behind.

His touch was unexpectedly intense.

"Mr. Hansen, aren't you going to replace Dr. Yoris? She's willing to do what I do," Cora said, recallingthe scene on the deck where they closely stood by each other. Compared with that, her relationshipwith Byron was unpresentable.

"What if I frighten her, and she refuses to shield me in the future? Will you shield me instead ofher

Byron clung to her closely, kissing her fervently as if punishing her.

Cora found Byron somewhat strange tonight.

However, she couldn't help feeling upset when hearing he said he didn't want to frighten Jane."What if she won't be frightened but like it?" She asked somewhat provocatively.

"You don't mind frightening me but worry about frightening Jane. Is my body so cheap that you cantrample over it as you like?" Cora thought.

"Do you like it?" Byron asked, turning the question back at her.

"No!" Cora retorted without hesitation.

Then Byron continued to pressure her body relentlessly, asking, "Do you like it?"

Finally, she had no choice but to compromise. "Yes..."

To salvage her pride, she asked, "When will you give me the rosewood?"

"Tomorrow."

"Can I have it now?"

"No."

"Why?"

"Shut up, or I won't show mercy.”

Byron acted on his threats, causing Cora to suffer a bit.

Meanwhile, Eason drank himself into a stupor after the King Game. He wandered around, searchingfor Cora, apologizing and asking for her forgiveness

"Cora, where are you?"

"I know I was wrong. Come back to me, okay?"

Mia tried to persuade him to go back with her and stop embarrassing himself on the deck. "Eason,let's go back! Cora is with Carter now. She won't come back to you."

"Get lost! Cora wouldn't have ignored me if it weren't for you!" He shouted.

Eason pushed her away, continuing his frantic search for Cora.

"Cora, I won't be with anyone else anymore. Please forgive me. I promise I'll have only you in myheart, and I'll help you restore the Lane family..."

Mia felt her sincere feelings were completely trampled upon by Eason.

But with things already at this point, if she let go now, everyone would know she had an abortion,and replaceing another partner would be even harder for her.

Gritting her teeth, Mia imitated Cora's voice and said, "Eason, will you really help me restore theLane family?"

The man, who had just resisted her touch, now embraced her tightly. "Yes, I will. Thank you, Cora.Thank you for giving me another chance.”

Still intoxicated, Eason kissed her.

Later, it was the second time Mia lay beneath Eason.

Eason kissed her again and again, calling her Cora throughout the night.
