Falling For My Mysterious Wife

Chapter 285

At that moment, Elaina seemed to be glowing. Jalen was enchanted for a long time.

“Ella.” Jalen looked at her and felt inexplicably excited. “So, are you willing to be my girlfriend?”

“No.” Elaina shook her head. Under Jalen’s disappointed gaze, she continued, “I need more time to test your sincerity.”

Jalen’s eyes lit up again, and the corners of his mouth could not help but rise. “Alright, I’m not in at hurry.”

As long as Elaina was willing to try and accept him, Jalen could wait as long as she wanted.

Elaina did not continue this topic. She started to talk about the factory. “I’ll get someone to draw up a new contract and send it over later. You will still have 40% of the shares as before.”

“No need for that much. 10% is enough,” Jalen said. He did not refuse like before but did not accept so much.

Elaina frowned. Jalen explained, “This is what you deserve. Sue wants your life. Your life is much more valuable than this factory.”

If not for Quincy being his friend, Jalen felt it was not enough for the Krause family to give everything it had to Elaina as compensation.

“But… You saved my life.” Elaina smiled bitterly. She really owed Jalen a lot.

“That’s different. Don’t think about using these shares to repay my kindness. The debt can only be cleared with you marrying me,” Jalen chuckled.

Elaina rolled her eyes at him. Jalen was lying on the bed and still not serious.

“Have a good rest. I’m still waiting for you to cook for me,” Elaina said as she walked to the door. After waving at Jalen, she disappeared into the sick room.

Jalen watched her leave, but he was excited.

He felt he finally gained something from his efforts. Elaina was starting to accept him. Given more time, he would definitely win her back.

When Graham came, he saw a smiling Jalen. Graham was really shocked.

“Mr. Halton? Are you alright?” Did Jalen suffer a recent blow to the head? Then what about the Halton Group?

In just a moment, Graham thought a lot.

Jalen ignored him, but Graham quickly reacted. “Could it be that Ms. Gainsford has agreed to be your girlfriend?” Content protected by Nôv/el(D)rama.Org.

In his opinion, it was the only thing that could make Jalen happy.

Jalen said, “Not yet.”

“Then why are you…?” Graham did not understand.

“Soon.” Jalen thought about it and told him about Elaina’s reaction. After all, Jalen was not sure himself. “Tell me. Is she going to accept me soon?”

“Yes.” Graham nodded. “I think Ms. Gainsford feels your confession is not formal enough.”

“What do you mean?” Jalen immediately sat up with a serious face.

Graham couldn’t help but laugh. He realized that ever since Jalen fell in love with Elaina, Jalen seemed to have become a different person. Jalen was less detached.

“Every girl wants a romantic confession. I think Ms. Gainsford is no exception.” Graham, who had been single for many years, expressed his opinion.

Jalen was silent. Thinking about it carefully, he realized he was casual every time he asked Elaina to be his girlfriend. No wonder she did not agree!

As if suddenly finding a solution, Jalen became spirited. “Then what do you think we should do?”

“Well…” Graham was embarrassed. “I have never professed my feelings to anyone.”

Graham never had a crush on anyone, so how could he have any experience of romantic relationships?

“Within a day, I want you to come up with at least ten plans,” Jalen ordered him, not caring whether

Graham had been in love or not.

Graham was stupefied. He was just about to say he had no experience of this when Jalen beat him to it.
