Twins - The Unforeseen Legacy of My Ex's Uncle-in-Law novel Chapter 271

Harlan spoke with a certainty that bordered on arrogance, "Since I've asked you to come here, I'm pretty sure we won't be disturbed."

The night had wrapped its cloak around the backyard, a place seldom visited at this hour. Its remoteness promised privacy.

Drusilla, with a hint of mockery in her voice, retorted, "What's this about? You lured me to this secluded spot because your wife's pregnancy has left you... unsatisfied, and you're hoping for a scandalous rendezvous with me?"

Despite her disdain for the man, Drusilla couldn't help but take jabs at him with every word she uttered.

Harlan's face darkened upon hearing her insinuations. He released her hand abruptly, his voice tinged with disgust, "In your dreams! Looking at you now, you're beneath me. You've been shacking up at the Taylor estate, sharing a bed with Enoch every night, haven't you? I have standards. I don't touch anything that's been handled by others."

Now, more than ever, she seemed utterly shameless.

It was as if he was facing a rascal with whom reasoning was futile.

Harlan never imagined there would come a day when he'd be left speechless before Drusilla.

Just then, footsteps approached, breaking the tense silence. "This is the spot!"
