Chapter 970 You Can Repay with Your Body
The person who could help her resolve this matter, apart from the person in front of her, was none other than him.
Her social connections weren't complicated, and even through elimination, she could figure out who it was.
"It's you." This time, she did not cower, nor was she afraid. She looked straight into his eyes and said, "You paid for
it, didn't you?"
Although she didn't understand why Bert refused to admit what he had done, she could roughly guess that his
identity must not be simple.
But it had nothing to do with her. All she had to do was find out the truth.
Bert stared at this stubborn face with a dark and brooding gaze. There was fear in her eyes, but more than that,
there was a kind of indescribable courage. This expression left him with an inexplicable sense of gloom and

"Four hundred thousand dollars is not a small amount of money. I've prepared an IOU and came here today to ask
you to sign it. It may take me a long time to repay, but I will definitely return it to you. You can consider it as
interest." She spoke each word with utmost clarity, as if afraid that Bert wouldn't understand.
As soon as she finished speaking, Bert suddenly loosened his grip on her neck, and even the wine cup she brought
in was overturned. "Get out!"
There was a crisp sound in the quiet private room, and Alivia was scared by this sudden movement. She looked at
the liquid flowing on the table and wanted to retreat, but...
Thinking of the 400,000 dollars, she clenched her fists, stood up, and stood before Bert. She took out the IOU
across the table and put it on it neatly. "Mr. Harper, as long as you sign your name, I guarantee that I will never
appear before you again. I will transfer the money to your account."
He looked at that slender, fair hand. Bert raised his gaze to observe that fearless and indifferent face. She was not
weak or timid at all. She had courage hidden beneath that delicate exterior, and it was absolute recklessness and
perseverance.
Bert hated this kind of feeling. It was a familiar feeling.
He took the note and put it between his index finger and middle finger in disdain. "You want me to sign it?"
Alivia paused and nodded with certainty. "Yes." "Do you know what my signature represents?"
This time, Alivia was speechless.
However, evidently, Bert had no intention of giving her any time to speak. "Just casually signing for you? What do
you take me for?"
His words choked Alivia. She didn't think so much when she came. It was not that she pretended to be lofty, but the
source of the money was unknown. It was risky for her to use it rashly. Only an IOU could prove the whereabouts of

the money.
But now, Bert had no intention of signing it at all.
Alivia Graves knew that he was humiliating her in this way and telling her that he was overestimating himself.
But she had to do so, so even if Bert said so, she still braced herself to put forward her suggestion. "Mr. Harper,
since you are worried, you can ask your lawyer to draft a more formal loan contract. I can sign it."
"Heh," Bert scoffed lightly. Seeing her insistence on having a conclusion, he also stood up and walked around the
long table to approach her. "You still want to continue?"
His intense aura hit Alivia like a gust of wind, and though invisible, she could distinctly feel the weight on her
shoulders as if something were pressing down on them.
His aura was so strong that even if she got close to him, she would feel stiff all over.
She swallowed silently. "Yes."
"In fact, you don't have to go through so much trouble. If you insist on doing this, you can pay with your body!"
