His Dangerous Love

Chapter 119 Force Her to Accompany Guests

Nola paused for a moment and carefully chose her words. "Mr. Roberts, like Mr. Larsen, is involved in underground businesses."

In Nola's words, Mr. Roberts had a glorious past. Years ago, he and his two brothers almost monopolized all the underground business in Oakpool.

Until Jefferson made his move.

At the beginning, the three of them wanted to use their old tactics to stick together, but Jefferson was clearly not the same as the stupid businessmen they had dealt with before.

Mr. Roberts's two brothers were rendered helpless by Jefferson's methods and Mr. Roberts couldn't afford to challenge him alone. He watched helplessly as Jefferson gradually swallowed up their territory.

As Jefferson's power grew stronger in recent years, Mr. Roberts's living space became smaller and smaller.

Now he could only pick up the scraps that Jefferson didn't want.

When Elianna heard this, she understood.

It must have been Mrs. Gentry who appreciated Mr. Roberts's strength and befriended him.

But now, thirty years had passed, and Mrs. Gentry had changed her target to Jefferson.

But...

Elianna furrowed her brows, the Gentry family clearly did legitimate business, why did they have to associate with these people?

Suddenly, she remembered something Jefferson had said before, "The Gentry family is trying their best to cater to me."

What exactly was the Gentry family doing behind the scenes...She thought.

"Anna?"

Elianna snapped out of her thoughts. "Sorry, Nola, I was lost in thought, what did you say?"

Nola looked worried. "I was wondering if Mr. Roberts did anything to you?"

Seeing her genuine concern, Elianna recounted what had happened inside.

Nola's worry deepened when she heard the story. Her eyebrows furrowed even more. "I'm sorry, Anna. I've caused trouble for you."

"How is it your fault?"

Nola hesitated and bit her lip. She first looked toward where the servants were standing not far away, and then pulled Elianna to a secluded spot.

"Mr. Roberts was originally interested in me."

Elianna instantly understood what she meant.

Mrs. Gentry was still hoping to use Nola to get close to Jefferson, so she must not have let her accompany Mr. Roberts.

Elianna didn't know how they had negotiated, but they had changed the person from Nola to her.

Nola still blamed herself. "If I could have gained Mr. Larsen's recognition, mother wouldn't have to deal with Mr. Roberts, and you wouldn't have to... sigh."

Elianna found her self-blame unbelievable.

As a well-bred young lady, she was forced to do such a dirty thing and yet she blamed herself even though she hadn't done well.

It had got to be said that the Gentry family's brainwashing education was really deeply ingrained in their bones. Têxt belongs to NôvelDrama.Org.

Elianna calmly said, "Don't blame yourself and it's not something you can control."

Just then, a servant came towards them.

"Ms. Gentry, Mrs. Gentry wants you to come in."

-

In the living room.

When Elianna entered, Mr. Roberts had already left.

Mrs. Gentry's face was pale, indicating that their conversation just now hadn't been pleasant.

After she saw that Nola had accompanied Elianna in, the frown on her face deepened.

"Who let you in?"

Nola was about to explain, but Mrs. Gentry cut her off. "Never mind and I have something to tell you."

"Tonight, you take Elianna to Mr. Roberts's place and teach her some rules."

"Mother, Anna has never been to Fantasy Club before, why don't I..."

"Shut up!"

Mrs. Gentry sternly reprimanded, "You can't even do the things I assigned you, yet you have the leisure to meddle in other people's affairs! Get out!"

Nola's face turned pale. She wanted to say something more but Elianna shook her head at her.

"Yes, Mother."

After Nola left, Mrs. Gentry turned her gaze to Elianna.

Elianna stared back at her. "Mother, are you asking me to sleep with Mr. Roberts?"

Mrs. Gentry glanced at her. "Are you going to refuse?"

"Although we haven't had a formal wedding, I am already married to the Larsen family. Once it's known to the Larsen family..."

"I heard that your brother's condition is not good after waking up."

Mrs. Gentry sat on the sofa, still condescending with her tone and pace, stepping on Elianna's most painful areas.
