HappyNovelChapter 764: Silver Fox held Burnet's gaze, hoping for a display of understanding and forgiveness. Instead, he looked at her with a slight smile that didn't quite reach his eyes. "Being friends with you wouldn't interest me. I'm not exactly short on friends," he said coolly.

"If you can lie, why can't I change my mind?" Silver Fox was at a loss for words. Marissa had told her that while they discussed plans outside the car, Burnet, though semi-conscious and bound in the car, had overheard everything. It was clear he knew Silver Fox wasn't actually a lesbian.
After a heavy silence, she asked, her voice tinged with despair, "So what are you planning to do, Mr. Hoffman? You aren't considering puttingin jail, are you? We are like family. Can't you just cutsslack?" "Like family?" Buraised an eyebrow, amusement flickering in his expression. "That's news to me." Frustrated but persistent, Silver Fox countered, "Yes, we are. Xander and I have both trained at the Doomsday Base, making us practically brother and sister. And you're a close friend of Black Snake's husband, so I'm like your family, right?" Burnet's amusement was brief, his gaze turning icy as he replied, "Saying something like that gets you nowhere." Losing her patience, Silver Fox pressed, “Then what do you want?" Bupaused for a moment before stating firmly, "I think we should consider Black Snake's suggestion." "What suggestion?" Silver Fox asked, her brow furrowed in confusion.
"Think back to what you discussed outside the car last night," Buprompted. "Had I not been incapacitated at that time, I would have told you it was a decent proposal." Silver Fox racked her brain, and when she recalled Black Snake's outlandish idea that she should have a son with Burnet, her eyes widened in shock. "Burnet, are you suggesting I should have a son with you?" "Yes," Bureplied firmly. "If you do that, I could forgive last night's incident. Otherwise, I can't just let it go." Silver Fox stared at him, disbelief painting her features. “Are you serious?" "Yes." Bunodded. "You want a daughter to inherit your grandmother's wealth, right? I can agree to that. Our son can inherit the Hoffman family's legacy, and our daughter can take over your family's estate. It works out perfectly." "But why me?" Silver Fox was baffled. "Many women would jump at the chance to bear your child. Why choose me?" Expecting a compliment on her beauty or talents, she was taken aback by Burnet's blunt reply. "If you don't agree, my suffering would have been for nothing." Dumbfounded by his logic, Silver Fox shook her head. The thought was absurd—Burnet, known for his intellect and savvy, resorting to such a rationale seemed implausible.
As the head of the Hoffman Group, he was renowned for his intelligence, wasn't he? It seemed inconceivable that he would propose something so irrational.

As Silver Fox wrestled with her thoughts, a light tap on her forehead O brought her back to reality. BuIt her was eyeing her curiously. "What's on your mind? Aren't you interested?" he prodded.
Regaining her composure, Silver Fox scrutinized him thoughtfully. "It's not out of the question. need to choose someone to father an heir, and you could be the ideal candidate." The corners of Burnet's mouth twitched slightly. Did she really see him merely as a means to an end?
Yet, she seemed oblivious to his mixed feelings and went on, "With my sharp intellect and your striking M looks, our daughter would be both intelligent and attractive. She'd be the perfect heir my grandmother would adore." Silver Fox excitedly clapped her hands, her enthusiasm palpable as she faced Burnet. "Alright, let's do this. Now, explain tohow we go about having babies."
