Chapter 210
Yesterday evening, Moira once again found herself at a loss and fled.
When she discussed the matter with Juliet, Moira couldn’t help but blush again. [Juliet, I feel like if this continues, I’ll be doomed sooner or later!]
Juliet: [Don’t be timid, darling! You two are legally married, so be bold and go for it!]
Moira touched her flushed cheek and replied: [No, we have a contract.]
Juliet: [Contracts can be voided by the power of love! If you really like him, just go for it! What’s there to be afraid of? Even if the worst happens, you can still enjoy his body for a while! And a man like Barclay, it’s not a bad deal, right?]
Moira: [What are you talking about…]
She knew it! Juliet’s mind was always filled with filthy thoughts!
Juliet sent several more messages afterward, but they were all similar content.
Moira felt too embarrassed to reply. Could such words be uttered by a single woman? Unbelievable!
She took her phone and went straight to the piano room to practice. Just as she finished playing Felix’s concert songs twice, Rose came up to
inform her that there was a visitor downstairs.
Moira frowned. Today was Monday, and everyone should be busy working
Who could be visiting her at this time? Could it be Barclay’s father?
This time, Moira guessed right. Since she refused Eric’s request for a meeting last time, he had been upset for several days.
Knowing that Barclay would be at the company today, Eric came directly to find Moira.
When Moira arrived downstairs, Rose had already poured water for Eric, but he hadn’t touched it.
Barclay’s father was even more difficult to deal with than Bernice. Eric had been battling in the business world for over thirty years.
Although he had retired due to illness, his aura and authority remained undiminished
Moira was still intimidated by him, but ultimately, she wasn’t truly Barclay’s wife, which made her a bit bolder.
She sat down on the sofa and addressed him, “Mr. Covington.”
She wanted to call him “Eric,” but she was afraid of upsetting Eric and sending him back to the hospital, so she changed her address.
Enc looked at her coldly. “Ms. Jimenez, you’re quite something. Alfie broke off the engagement with you, and now you’ve let Barclay marry
your”
Moira said, “Mr. Covington, you got it wrong. I broke off the engagement with Alfie, and Alfie was the one who got dumped,”
She emphasized her point, but it only angered Eric even more. He said, “You don’t need to pretend to be innocent. I won’t fall for the tricks
like Barclay did)”
Moira felt indignant. “I wasn’t pretending. I was just telling the truth.”

Thu, 4 Ju
It was the first time Eric encountered someone like Moira. “Name your price. How much money do you want to divorce Barclay?”
Moira retorted, “You and Mrs. Bernice are a perfect match, Mr. Covington. Your words are so alike!”
Couldn’t they come up with a different approach?
Since middle age, Eric had only received respect from others. Who dared to speak to him like this?
He was so angry that he slammed his cane hard on the ground. “Fine! Let’s see how long your family’s business can last!”
When Moira heard this, her smile faded. “Mr. Covington, are you suggesting that if I don’t agree, you’ll go after my family’s company?”
Eric smirked. “You’re not that stupid!”
“If you do this and Barclay finds out, won’t he be angry?” Moira asked seriously, but Eric’s expression instantly turned sour.
