The image of her biting her lip stoked Clayton’s desire. Grabbing her head, he lowered his head and took her mouth.
isabella’s hands were trapped between them.
Clayton’s other hand reached under the hem of her top and stroked the smooth skin on her back.
The driver wiped the sweat from his forehead and peeked at Johnny in the passenger seat. Fortunately, Johnny was still straight–faced, making the driver feel that the world was still familiar to him.
They had been with Clayton since he took over Rayson International, and that was a long time.
The driver thought, “Mr. Murray only had men working close to him, and women were kept at a distance. Take Ms. Vaughn, who’s closest to Mr. Murray, as an example. She has never ridden in the same car with Mr. Murray. The public has always speculated about Mr. Murray’s sexuality because of the male–only staff and Mr. Maguire around him. We’ve never doubted Mr. Murray’s virility and are used to his indifference toward women, but did the sun rise from the West today? Johnny is indeed the best special assistant! His willpower is amazing! I’m ashamed of myself!
However, he didn’t know that Johnny was merely suppressing his shock. The image of his aloof boss had shattered.
Johnny was so impressed with Isabella that he nearly worshipped her. He thought, ‘From now on, she’s my role model.”
The car stopped at the mansion.
Clayton was amused to see Isabella, who shrank like a critter the second he let go. He opened the door and got out of the car. He then opened her door and pulled Isabella, who wished she had quills all over her body, out of the car.
The moment Isabella struggled, dizziness washed over her, and Clayton immediately held her. Worried about falling, she unconsciously hung onto Clayton’s neck. Feeling pleased, he walked into the house with a wide smile.
“We’re home, my dear wife,” Clayton whispered in Isabella’s ear.
Isabella struggled desperately, ignoring the gasps from the maids they passed. Clayton only released her when they arrived in his bedroom. Instead of releasing her, his action was closer to tossing her onto the bed.
Isabella fell on the springy bed, sinking into the covers. She got up, looking like a mess. Her hair was messy, and her clothes were wrinkled.
Her shoes were gone.
She stood barefoot on the carpet in front of the bed, combed her long, messy hair, and looked up at Clayton in front of her. “You’re being unreasonable, Clayton!”
Clayton shrugged. “What reason do you want, Mrs. Murray?”
Isabella was stunned and thought, ‘Reason?
n? What reason?
Clayton admired her dazed state. He noticed afunny side of hers. Once he interrupted her thought, her reaction would slow momentarily, and her expression was cute, just like then.
“The prenuptial agreement!‘ Isabella remembered.

“We agreed to sign a prenuptial agreement.” Isabella was a little flustered.
Clayton shrugged. “We’re married now, though. It’ll be a postnuptial agreement if there’s one.”
Isabella gnashed her teeth. “Okay, let’s sign the postnuptial agreement then.”
Clayton nodded. “Okay, what are the terms?”
Isabella started, “Our marriage is fake…”
Clayton cut her off, “Wrong. We got our marriage license from the City Council, so it’s a real marriage.
Isabella argued, “No, that’s not what we agreed on!”
Clayton insisted, “Yes, it is. It’s a real marriage, and we’re a legitimate married couple.”
“No! No!” Isabella denied it in a panic. “You… You tricked mel” Isabella trembled with anger.

Clayton said innocently, “You originally gave me three days to consider marrying you, Mrs. Murray. You even said you would give me half of your assets after marriage and would draw up a prenuptial agreement. I thought for half a day and agreed to marry you.”
Then, Clayton rapped out with a sincere and affirmative tone, “Yet, when I went to you, you sold me to your sister behind my back and earned 1.5 million dollars. Since you got that money using me, I think Ideserved 1.2 million dollars, so I gave you 300 thousand dollars as remuneration. I first took 301.5 thousand dollars from you, and you still owed me 898.5 thousand dollars. Then we negotiated that if you married me, I would give you 150 thousand dollars. We got married, and I’ve transferred 150 thousand dollars to your account. Have I tricked you? I don’t think so.”
Isabella stared at him dazedly and thought, ‘Every word he said was true. It’s the damn truth, but this is all wrong. I could’ve gotten 300 thousand dollars without a hitch and even gotten rid of having to sleep with a man, so how did it turn into me owing him 898.5 thousand dollars? I had 301.5 thousand dollars in my account, and now only 150 thousand is left. What’s more, this damn man has taken advantage of me! Damn it!‘ Anger coursed through Isabella at his manipulation,
While she spaced out, Clayton stepped forward and circled her waist, pulling her close to him. He leaned down and whispered in her ear, “Mrs. Murray, we’re married now, and we’ll be doing something that husbands and wives do.”
“Something that husbands and wives do?” Isabella looked at Clayton confusedly.
Clayton chuckled and kissed her lips.
Realization dawned upon Isabella as she struggled desperately. Clayton reached under the hem of her shirt and grasped her waist tightly. When she gasped from the slight pain, he took advantage of the opportunity to slip his tongue into her mouth.
He was more assertive than in the car. Isabella breathed faster, and her body softened. When she realized what was happening, Clayton had pinned her on the bed. Her clothes were taken off, revealing her tanned body. The air conditioner was on full blast, raising goosebumps across her bare skin. Isabella panicked, grabbed the covers to cover her body, and recoiled. “No! No!” Her big eyes were pleading him..
The sight of her body on top of his black covers fanned his desire. He grabbed her hand, yanked the covers, covered her with his own body, and kissed her on the lips until her mind went blank. Sweet words were whispered in her ear, and a light, feathery kiss followed.
Isabella wept softly, then felt her tears being gently kissed away. Soft, comforting words were whispered into her ear again.
Finally, Isabella fell asleep. When she woke up, she felt pain all ov
