Chapter 621 I Never Thought Of Marrying You (2/2)
Jonny gazed at her in silence. He didn't seem to realize he had already fallen deeply in love with this beautiful woman. Yet the mystery surrounding her had gnawed at him.
He slowly bent his head and pressed his lips to hers.

“Who does she think she is? I won’t marry her even if she is the last woman on earth,” said Hiram Rong.
“Marry into a family with tens of billions of assets? How lucky I am! I won’t be so foolish as to break off the engagement. At worst, I can receive money as part of the divorce settlement,” said Rachel Ruan.

Winter took off her helmet and smiled at him. ”Sweet Jonny, president of the Streams Company. I know there must be tons of women who would die to merely hold your hand. You don't have to act so humbly for me.”

Jonny looked at her in all her beauty, then nodded his head.

She started the engine and took off.
Jonny stood in the wind, longingly gazing at the direction she headed, even after she had long disappeared.
When he finally turned around and started to leave, he saw the half cigarette she left on the ground.
