RankNovelChapter 2789 Asking her for help felt degrading, yet he rationalized that it was for her benefit too.
Tilda regarded him with surprise.
In her eyes, Keanu was someone defined by his pride.
He wasnt the type to ask for help-at least, he hadnt been in their school days.
But here he was, vulnerable and pleading for her assistance with Lyndon.
It didnt seem like him at all.
She hesitated.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtI dont understand business, Keanu.
Even if I talk to my husband, theres no guarantee hed listen. Keanus gaze remained fixed on her.
Tilda, if you were my wife, Id do anything you asked because I love you.
The implication of his words hung heavy in the air.
If she asked Lyndon and he didnt comply, wouldnt that mean he didnt love her? Tildas heart clenched slightly as she brushed a lock of hair behind her ear, falling silent.
She sensed the subtle challenge in Keanus words, and a question lodged itself in her mind: would Lyndon truly agree to work with Keanu if she asked? Probably not.
Because, in the end, he didnt love her enough to do whatever she wished.
Keanu, seeing the flicker of doubt in her eyes, pressed on, My boss mentioned that if you could help secure the partnership, theyd offer you a share of the deal.
A share for me? Tilda repeated, caught off guard by the unexpected offer.
Keanu nodded.
Yes.
Youre married to Lyndon, and his assets are partly yours.
I imagine you wouldnt want to see him giving away whats yours to someone else, right? He hesitated briefly, recalling Scarlets advice before he spoke again, carefully choosing his words.
Tilda, I know youre a kind person, but the world isnt always kind in return.
No matter how comfortable your life may seem, money still matters.
If you and Lyndon arent meant to be together forever, wouldnt it be wise to secure your own financial future? That way, no matter what happens, you wouldnt be left empty-handed.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThe more Keanu spoke, the more unfamiliar he seemed to Tilda.
Had he changed that much, or had she simply never known him as well as she thought? She frowned, her expression questioning.
Keanu, is this really what you believe? she asked quietly. Or is someone putting these ideas in your head? ve Instead of answering directly, Keanu countered, Do you find anything wrong with what I said? Tilda paused, considering his words.
I dont want to comment on whether youre right or wrong, but I don't m believe relationships should be about calculating gains and losses. Maybe Im a bit of a romantic, but I dont want to reduce my marriage to a business transaction.
I dont want to obsess over maintaining a title or strategize about how to divide assets.
Because Im already wealthy, Keanu.
I dont lack money.
She looked at him directly, her gaze unwavering.
Her words were simple but carried a clarity that left him feeling strangely small.
