The Heiress He Underestimated
Chapter 90
Chapter 90 Game OnElera felt like he’d slapped her. “Is that really what you think? That I’m just humoring you?”“I think you’re a woman with twenty billion dollars and multiple successful careers who married a stranger because he made a good pitch,” Drakonius said. “And I think somewhere along the way, you’ve started to confuse partnership with something else. But Elera, I’m dying. Even with your treatment, even with the Chimera Protocol working, I’m on borrowed time. And I won’t let you waste your feelings on someone who has an expiration date.”“You don’t get to decide that,” Elera said, anger flaring now. “You don’t get to tell me what I feel or why I feel it.”“Then tell me,” Drakonius challenged. “Tell me honestly. If I wasn’t sick, if I wasn’t this tragic figure you’re trying to save, would you still be here? Would you have even looked twice at me?”It was a trap question and they both knew it. If she said yes, he wouldn’t believe her. If she said no, she’d be confirming his worst fears.“I don’t deal in hypotheticals,” Elera said instead. “You are sick. I am trying to save you. That’s our reality. And in that reality, I’ve come to care about you as more than a patient or a partner. But clearly, you’ve already decided what I feel and why I feel it, so this conversation is pointless.”
