Chapter 945
Henry was taken aback. He couldn't believe Everly would actually say that. Even when she threw fits at the hospital
previously, she never talked about ending things.
Henry frowned slightly. "Say that one more time."
Everly lowered her head and fiddled with her nails. "I said I'm tired of this. Let's end it."
The arm around her waist suddenly pulled her closer into his embrace.
Henry said through gritted teeth, "I'll give you one chance to take that back."
"Mr. Synder, I've thought things through. I don't want a relationship like this."
"You don't want a relationship like this?"
Henry sneered as he reached out to tilt Everly's chin upward.

Looking at his mocking gaze and listening to his icy tone, Everly felt relieved that she didn't say that. She would just
be making a fool of herself.
"That's not it. I just want to quit. The agreement we signed was for three years. There are only a few more months
left. It'll be almost time after the three-month break you gave me. n
"Quit? Why? You don't want to be a CEO's assistant anymore? You want to work in sales again?"
Everly shook her head, ignoring his harsh tone. She replied seriously, "The past two years have been tiring. I want
to take a long break. Let's end this, Mr. Synder."
"Ms. Hilton, you know you'll have to pay a fee for breach of contract, right?"
Henry thought that would make her nervous since she loved money.
Everly replied calmly, "Alright. How much is it? I'll pay."
"What if I say the amount would be equivalent to everything you've earned so far? It'll be like you worked for free."
Everly's lips quivered slightly. Henry reached out and patted her on the head. Then, he said matter-of-factly, "I knew
you wouldn't do something that dumb. You love money, after all.
"Just rest with paid leave for now. I'll double your bonus, okay? I'll be more careful this time, so you won't have to
suffer through another pregnancy."
Everly didn't reply and just looked at him silently. That gaze made Henry feel unfamiliar.
Even at that point, Henry didn't show any concern for her. He just wanted to satiate his carnal desires. There wasn't
anything wrong with that, though. They had agreed on the price since the beginning.
Everly sold herself out for a price. She fulfilled her material desires but lost her dignity in the process. She didn't
think too much about it back then.
All she thought about was sleeping with a handsome man who was rich and skilled. It was a very enticing offer.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAfter realizing what she had lost in the transaction, it was already too late to regret her decision. The one who fell in
love first was always the loser in this type of situation. She lost.
That was why she felt Henry's words were painful to listen to and his gaze painful to look at.
She didn't have anyone to blame. The rules of the agreement were already set. She was the one who broke the
rules.
It was a monetary transaction, and yet she brought emotions into it. It was like she was cheating in a card game.
"Why are you looking at me like that? If you need more money, I can give it to you."
"It's okay. It's enough."
Everly smiled abruptly. Then, she sat on Henry's thigh and wrapped her arms around his neck like she used to.
She was more sure than ever that the best option was to end the relationship. But she couldn't afford to let Henry
discover her intentions before that.
Everly gave him a seductive look and said, "Triple. I want it now."
"You money-grubbing woman." Henry kissed her on the nose and took out his phone to transfer the money to her.
"Give it to Liv. I feel bad for using her money while I’ve been living here."
"Okay. I'll do that."
