Twins - The Unforeseen Legacy of My Ex's Uncle-in-Law novel Chapter 135

But she should still have feelings for him, right?

She used to be so crazy about him.

How could she ever think he is less than Enoch, with his disabilities?

With a defiant mindset, Harlan spoke up, "Drusilla, can we go back to how things were?"

He always had this air of superiority around her. In particular, after their divorce, his career took off even more. And that boosted his sense of pride.

But now, he was lowering himself and practically using a pleading tone.

Drusilla was about to counter his infuriating remarks when she was caught off guard by his request. She looked at Harlan, noticing his serious expression, and realized that he wasn't joking.

"Have you… lost your mind?" she retorted.

Harlan had his gaze on her. He took a deep breath and said, "You are going after the Taylors and cozying up to Enoch all just to get under my skin, right? Fine, you've succeeded. I can't stand seeing you with him! So, can you stop now?"

"Get under your skin?" Drusilla replied. "You think I went after the Taylors just to irk you? What's in it for me? Does annoying you make me get the house? Does it mean the kids no longer need to eat?"

Hearing her, Harlan frowned and said, "Is it just about the house? I'll give it to you! I said I would! And I can take care of the kids too! Just leave Enoch, and we can talk about anything."

"You'd take care of the kids?" Drusilla was surprised.

He had despised those kids, even going as far as divorcing her to avoid having them around, and now he was offering to take them in!

Harlan replied, "I'm not broke. How much could it possibly cost to take care of two more kids? You think I can’t afford it? You don't need to worry about that."

"And then what?" Drusilla challenged him. "I come back to you, and we're together? I listen to you, never seeing another man? Who do you think you are?"

She could hardly contain her laughter at his presumptuousness.

A married man literally wanted to take her in, huh?

Harlan insisted, "Who am I? Do you have no feelings for me after all these years? I can give you what you want now! I'm willing to come back to you, so just be grateful! Don't wait till I change my mind."

Listening to his self-righteous tone, as if coming back to her was a favor she should be eternally grateful for and saying yes in tears, Drusilla could hardly believe what she was hearing.
