Forced Into Marriage: My Husband’s Too Mean novel Chapter 69

Lindsey closed her eyes to suppress the nauseous feeling and said, "I’ll say it again. I don't have $20 million and don't think for one second that Zayn will give me any money."

"You little brat!" Stephanie Lindt wanted to scold Lindsey again, but she was stopped by Henry, who said, "Lindsey, we really have no choice. How much do you have then?"

Lindsey smirked sarcastically and thought, ‘I’m just afraid you’ll think what I have is too little!’

"$100,000 and not a penny more." This was Lindsey's final concession.

The couple opposite her looked dissatisfied and Lindsey was even prepared for more nonsense.

However, even though Stephanie looked dissatisfied, she looked at Henry and in the end, Henry said, "Then let's start with $100,000."

His tone was so reluctant as if it was Lindsey who owed them money.

Lindsey's intuition was wrong, but she could not understand where the problem lied.

At the same time at Zayn's office.

Quentin placed the photos on Zayn’s desk and said, “President, Henry Juhl and his wife kept pestering Madam these past two days. These are the photos.”

He had already changed the way he addressed Lindsey and Zayn did not stop him.

Zayn picked up the photos and looked at them one by one. There were even photos of Stephanie reaching out to pull Lindsey, but she dodged her.

He then thought of Lindsey’s awkward smile yesterday. This woman was really hiding something from him.

"Check if anyone is behind this." Zayn did not believe that the Juhls would suddenly look for Lindsey after they had been bankrupt for so long.

"Also, leak news of Shaun's return to Henry Juhl and his wife."

......

“Lindsey Juhl, will you give me a break? Look at how much trouble you've caused me lately!”

Lindsey was severely reprimanded by the Director and her promotion was canceled.

In the office, Fenly and a few others spared no effort to slander her, and Lindsey suddenly felt exhausted.

All of these people think that she was an easy target.

They should look in the mirror before trying to bully her.

Before leaving the office, Lindsey handed the two documents in her hand to Fenly and another girl.

"The Director asked for this. Mr. Juhl will come back and check it himself, so I want to see it on my desk before work tomorrow morning. This other document is a few important client information and it’s highly confidential. Organize it and send it to the Director privately. Don’t leak this information." Lindsey explained with a stern face.

Although the two of them were reluctant, they still took over the documents. After all, Lindsey was still their team leader.

Zayn did not pick her up from work today, but Lindsey did not mind. When she took the bus home, she almost missed her stop.

Mrs. Wendy saw her depressed face and was worried about her. She was about to ask Lindsey what was wrong when Zayn came home.

The two of them were deep in their own thoughts and did not say a word throughout dinner. It seemed like they had returned to their previous way of getting along.

Zayn wiped his mouth and put down the cutlery in his hand. He looked at Lindsey, who lowered her head to eat one bite at a time, and he suddenly opened his mouth.

"Is there anything you want to tell me?"

Lindsey lifted her head. Besides looking a little dull, there was nothing out of the ordinary. She replied, "No."

"Huh." Zayn sneered, turned around, and went upstairs.
