Billionaire's Sweetheart

Chapter 849

When Elizabeth heard his words, her face was filled with astonishment. "Is there a problem with the management of the company?"

"Yes, I don't feel too good. The people under my command have been hiding so many things from me. From now on, I want to investigate them one by one." Richard said with a calm voice.

"Then how are you going to investigate? I just heard from someone below that you haven't taken care of the company for over three years. You've been busy shooting movies." Elizabeth couldn’t help but worry that he would work too hard.

"Yes, I was indeed too carefree, always feeling that doing what I like the most is not a waste of time, but I forgot that when I set up this company, it was also something that I liked. Now, I want to pick up my hobby and shift the focus to managing the company." Richard's thin lips curled into a smile, and felt that the decision he had made was considered to be timely. If he discussed management after the company was completely taken over by others, it would really become empty talk on paper.

"Think about it yourself. Whatever decision you make, I will support you." Although she couldn't act with him, but as long as he liked to do something, Elizabeth would still raise both hands in support.

"The company's shares have already fallen today, so will they continue to fall tomorrow? What can we do to save the situation?" Although Elizabeth did not know how to manage, she was still extremely anxious about the plummet in the company's shares.

"I'm trying to find a solution. Before work today, every department head will send me a tactic. Don't worry, there will be a solution tomorrow." Richard wasn't worried at all, because he seemed to have already thought of a final idea. This content provided by N(o)velDrama].[Org.

"What solution?" Elizabeth couldn't help but be curious.

"Let's get married!" Richard suddenly extended his hand out and grabbed her small hand, placing it on his chest, and kissed it lightly.

Elizabeth's body trembled, with her beautiful eyes wide open. She stared at him.

Seeing that she was stunned, Richard smiled with his thin lips: "If there's a reason for my decision, I believe those who like me won't be too disappointed."

"Ugh ... Will you really marry me?" Elizabeth was shocked and touched, her mind still blank.

Richard said: "I have already have sex with you, so of course you are my responsibility."

Elizabeth originally thought that he would be able to say something that would move her even more, but she didn't expect that the man's words would be so frank, causing her, who was prepared to be moved, to pause slightly in her heart.

Just because he had her body, he wanted to marry her?

Elizabeth quickly concealed the slight warmth in her eyes and said in a low voice, "The reason I'm willing to stay with you is not because I want you to take responsibility. There's no need for you to…"

"If there's no other way to salvage this fall, we'll get married, okay?" Richard reached out and gently caressed her long hair. With his serene and heavy eyes, it was hard to tell what he was thinking.

Elizabeth's breath tightened. Although she didn't know what marriage signified, she knew that she really had to tie herself up with this man for her entire life. The entire life was too far away, and the only thing she dared to think about was being able to be together with him. That's enough.

"I... Of course I have no objections!" Elizabeth realized that her voice was trembling.

"Elizabeth Jones, let me ask you again. Do you like me or do you love me!" Richard's gaze tightly locked onto her blushing little face, as he waited for her reply.

"What's the difference between liking someone and loving someone?" Elizabeth's mind was still blank. Her mind was filled with thoughts of marriage.

Was she going to marry Richard Hughes?

Was she dreaming?

"There is a huge difference between liking and loving. Like is only temporary, but love is eternal and unchanging." This was Richard's understanding towards love.

"What about you? How do you feel about me?" Elizabeth mustered up her courage and asked as she raised her head.

Richard looked at her seriously, and frowned: "What I can answer you right now is that I like your body. Of course, I also like you a little."

"Then what about Felicity..." When Elizabeth heard him say that he liked her, she still felt a little happy.

However, very quickly, she asked something that she shouldn't have asked.

"She's my sister-in-law!" Richard answered her with complete certainty: "In the future, don't use her to test my sincerity, okay?"

Richard felt that everything that had happened in the past was extremely preposterous, however, for a person to grow up, they would have to experience many different things. Now that he had calmed down and thought about it, he still had to be grateful to Felicity. At the very least, her appearance had stimulated his feelings towards women unlike in the past, when he liked to hide in his own world.

Elizabeth could hear the calmness in his tone and she was stunned. Then, she nodded: "I understand. I will not bring up this matter again."

"Sorry, I'm not a very expressive person. If my answer hurts you..."

"That doesn't matter. It's enough that you like me. Richard, if you are willing to marry me, I am also very willing to marry you. These are my heartfelt words!" Elizabeth raised the corner of her mouth and laughed, as if she was a happy child.

Her pair of eyes, which were as bright as spring, released a glow, slightly stunning Richard and causing him to be a little absent-minded.

"Alright, I'll see what their plan is before making a decision. If there's a solution, we won't get married." Richard's tone became much softer.

"Alright! I'll be going, then!" Elizabeth bit her lower lip. Hearing that it was possible for them to not get married, a trace of disappointment inexplicably flashed across her heart.

What happened to her?

Why was she suddenly worried about gains and losses?

Was this the feeling of falling in love with someone?

In the first second, she was so happy that she was about to jump up and down. But in the next second, she fell back to the ground. These things were beyond her control.

After five o'clock, there were more than ten solutions placed in front of Richard's desk.

Richard looked at them one by one, his tightly knitted brows did not relax in the Slightest.

It seemed that none of the plans that these people had offered had satisfied him.

Thus, he reached out his hand and made a call to Elizabeth.

Elizabeth held onto her phone, and heard his low voice ring out: "Elizabeth, let's get engaged in two days."

Elizabeth felt that the air around her had become much thinner. She bit her lips and spoke with a heartbeat, "Alright!"

"Engagement first!" Hearing that she agreed, Richard's lips curled up into a smile, and his tone softened.

"Alright!" No matter what the man said, Elizabeth could not carefully examine it.

"I'll give you one night to consider it. Give me an answer tomorrow morning!" Richard chuckled. He felt that his words had really shocked her. Wasn't she bold in the past? Why did she sound like a mosquito now?
