OMG!!! My Crippled Husband is a Hot, Powerful CEO-Chapter 151 – Heartbreak Fund

Violet almost believed it was before she remembered he was Alex’s best friend. As such, Aiden would always be around.

"Goodbye, Aiden," she said, breaking his last shred of hope. With a forced smile, Aiden turned around and never looked back again, though he hoped that Violet would have a change of mind and call him back.

Dialing Alex’s number, his message was short. "Alex, this is goodbye. I will keep you updated on the events of New Orleans."

Alex was strangely saddened. After receiving the video, he felt that it was over and Aiden’s words proved it.

"Take good care of yourself out there, my dear friend." He had wanted to inform Joanna but felt it wrong for them to control Violet’s life.

If Bennet made her happy, then who were they to stand in her way? Violet returned to the restaurant, seeing a relief sigh on Bennet’s face.

Oh, how she wished she could tear it off, especially when she had to fake being nice the whole time.

If only she could be herself around him at this time, how she was with Aiden but things were different with Bennet.

She needed something from him and as such, she had to continue with the pretense.

"So, will you marry me?" Bennet asked once again, Violet looked eagerly at the people in the restaurant.

"Of course, I will but there are a few things we have to set straight."

A crisp frown lifted the corner of Bennet’s lips as she asked after rising from the floor. The ring was still on his finger.

Violet sat and beckoned him to take the seat in front of her, onlookers were filled with disappointment to not have seen the happy final moment.

"What are you talking about?" Bennet asked, Violet smiled at him and asked seriously. "Do you love me?"

"Of course. How could I beg you to marry me if I don’t love you?" He sounded so helpless, Violet would have believed him if she hadn’t been in contact with Sadie.

"Well, I’ve had a lot of men tell me the same thing but, in the end, they break my heart," Violet pointed out, Bennet was slightly relieved.

For a moment, he thought it was going to be something serious but he figured that all Violet needed was the assurance that he was not going to break her heart.

"I will never break your heart, V."

Violet forced a smile and stared seriously at him. "That’s what they always say."

"So how do you want me to prove it?" He asked eagerly, Violet smiled profoundly. This was the part she was waiting for and it dropped like a bomb.

"Well, I was thinking that we open a Heartbreak Fund, if you know what I mean."

"What is a Heartbreak Fund?" Bennet asked with a confused expression, Violet explained.

"A Heartbreak Fund is a fund set up in case of heartbreak. What is expected is that we both deposit fifty percent of our investments plus savings into this account."

Bennet was thinking through the suggestion and was glad she mentioned both of them, which meant it just wasn’t going to be his money.

This was interesting, making him believe that Violet indeed wanted them to have a great future together.

"So, you want us to have a joint account where we both deposit half of our savings and what do we do with it?" He asked, ready to comply if that would encourage her to accept his proposal.

"Well, in case you break my heart in the course of the marriage, everything in the Heartbreak Fund would be mine together with fifty percent of all we make together after the marriage and vice versa."

A smirk lifted the corner of Bennet’s lips. He had no intention of leaving her, especially when she belonged to a very wealthy family. He was certain that her contribution to the Heartbreak Fund or whatever she called it would be even more than his because her family was richer.

"If that would make you marry me, then I will make the deposit seventy percent and if I do anything to break your heart, then you can have all that belongs to me, even if we aren’t married yet."

Violet smiled profoundly, and typed a few things on her phone. They were changes she was making on the document to bind them together.

"In that case, sign the document I sent to your email."

Bennet removed his phone and without hesitation, signed the electronic document. A few minutes later, the completed document was sent to both of them.

"The document is signed so you can’t refuse to marry me," he said proudly, Violet embraced him and kissed him on the lips.

"Since you have proven to take good care of my heart, let’s get married first thing tomorrow morning."

Bennet froze instantly. He still needed time to finalize the divorce and if he showed the least sign that he was still married, then he would lose everything with a blink of an eye.

He began to think if had just been tricked but tricked. Nervously, he replied.

"Why the rush? Our wedding must be big so give it three weeks," he said seriously, Violet smiled.

"In that case, no sex before marriage," she shrugged, Bennet’s teeth gritted together.

He couldn’t afford to push her too hard and had to accept the obvious. After all, the divorce would take place in barely a week.

Until then, that idiotic woman could continue to service him. "Alright. I will begin working on the marriage so we have to arrange for both our parents to meet by next week," he said, Violet smiled profoundly.

"Sure, and remain a good boy."

That night, Violet could not keep her excitement to herself and rushed to Joanna’s house, bumping into Alex at the entrance.

"Violet, you look excited," Alex said with a forced smile, guessing it was because of her marriage proposal.

Violet was not ready to answer to Alex and looked around curiously, Alex decided to save her the stress.

"Joanna is upstairs. I will get her for you." He went to get Joanna, who was excited at the mention of Violet.

Even as he excused himself, he had a feeling the conversation involved Violet’s relationship and spied on them through the CCTV.

After learning the truth that everything Violet was doing was to save a girl, Alex dialed Aiden’s number.

"Aiden, I have good news. Violet is not who you think she is."

Aiden was glad to hear something positive from the other end of the line but his response broke Alex’s heart.
