My Billionaire Mom

Chapter 617

"If you like her, I hope you find this marriage arrangement agreeable. There are not many women with good genes like hers," Thomson said.

"Alright, but... you're sure she's really lost all her memories?" Loomis asked, turning to catch another glimpse of Willa on her bed.

"I'm sure. Look, didn't it play out well just now?"

Loomis smiled faintly at the memory. He was a pretty charming fellow, so he could make this work.

He had just been asking out of curiosity anyway.

"But she doesn't seem to trust me ... " Loomis continued. When he had touched Willa's hand just now, her subconscious reaction was to pull back from him and to tell him not to touch her coldly.

This woman was very resistant to his charms.

However, the more she resisted, the more it enticed Loomis.

It was a challenge he could not back down from.

Willa wasn't a bumbling idiot; she was smart. It would be interesting to see how far he could go to convince her that he was her lover.

After all, Loomis was not one to back down from a challenge so easily. Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.

"You're a giant flirt. What kind of woman would trust you?" Thomson retorted.

"Dad, you only have yourself to blame! I've learned it all from you after all ... " Loomis teased.

"You're getting more and more insolent these days ... " Thomson replied without any anger. After all, he was his favourite son after all.

"Alright then. This decision you've made... I like it," Loomis said as he continued to stare longingly at Willa.

She was gorgeous.

She looked so delicate right now that it was love at first sight for him. He had never felt like this for anyone before.

"Well then, that settles it. You do know why I agreed to this, right?" Thomson questioned calmly.

"What is it? Did you want to elevate Willa's status?" Loomis asked, pretending to be confused.

"Stop joking around, Loomis. If you don't get me a grandson in a year's time, I'm getting rid of her," Thomson warned, right before leaving.

When he had stumbled upon Willa's injured state, he had already planned it all in advance.

For an aged man like him, he thought Willa was a beauty. She was 1.72 meters tall and had beautiful features. The children she would bear would no doubt inherit her genes.

They would be tall and good-looking.

The Yeager family was a powerful hidden family, so they needed more descendants to carry their family name into the far future.

Willa could help them do just that.

"Don't sweat it, Dad. I won't let you down," Loomis chuckled as he said.

He proceeded to snap his fingers to summon help.

Within moments, someone made their way over hurriedly, "Young Master, what can I help you with?"

"Get the best congee cooker here at once," Loomis instructed.

"Mr. Alvin has just left. He has a shop to tend to," The other man explained cautiously.

"Smack!"

Loomis had landed a slap on the man's face, narrowing his eyes as he said, "Want to repeat that?"

In fear, the man started to get on his knees, "Sorry, Young Master. Please, hold on a moment. I'll call for him right now."

"Get him back here in ten minutes. If he's not here by then, I'll kill him! Ask him to prepare a pot of congee for me. I want to present it as my own to Willa," Loomis smiled as he said.

With a firm nod, the man hurried away.

Loomis turned to look at Willa through the glass again and muttered to himself with a smile, "Beauty, this is a golden opportunity for you to climb the social ladder I'm offering you. You'd better appreciate this."

Willa did not fall asleep after she was left alone. She had been thinking about that peculiar Loomis guy. If they really were a couple, why didn't she feel even a hint of a passion for him? All she felt was unfamiliarity.

Willa sighed and vaguely recalled the characteristics of the person she had liked. He was someone that she thought was cute. He was younger than her and may even still be studying in university.

However, why did she feel a little sad and lost when she thought about him?

Could it be that he was unavailable? Was she pinning for this person?

Thoughts were running a mile through her head. She was starting to piece together bits and pieces of this person, but the image was really vague ...

A while later, she blinked her eyes open when she caught a whiff of something that made her mouth water.

"Willa, I've made this for you myself, come eat a little. You've always been very fond of my congee. Here, have a taste. It might jog your memories," Loomis said as he brought the food over to her and fed her with the spoon.

Willa shook her head hurriedly, "Thank you but I can eat it myself."

"It's okay, I don't mind feeding you. Come on, open wide," Loomis smiled as he scooped up a spoonful of the congee, ready to feed it into her mouth.

"Really, there's no need for this. I'll do it myself!" She exclaimed.

Willa had retreated to the far end of her bed. She really did not feel good about this man.

She was sure that she would have never tolerated anyone as forceful as Loomis before. Surely the person she liked wouldn't act like that.

Loomis frowned a little at her but quickly replaced it with a smile, "Alright then, if you insist."

It had been a long while since Willa had last eaten, so she was awfully hungry. She had to eat something now to replenish her strength.

After she finished the food, she felt somewhat better.

"Let me take you out for a walk ... " Loomis offered, stretching out his hand.

"Please stop trying to touch me. Look, I can get down myself. I don't like people touching me," Willa said as she got out of bed by herself.

Her recovery was going immensely well. When she had woke up before, she barely had the energy to walk. She willed herself to get better quickly so she could remember the person that was occupying her mind at the moment.

"I used to hug you all the time in the past and you've

never refused me. But now... have you really

forgotten me?" Loomis sighed, looking

heartbroken.

"I'm sorry but I don��t remember you at all ... " Willa said, feeling a little helpless. Her memories had been presented to her in different forms of hazy dreams, so she had an inkling about the people she had used to know. However, this man here was a complete stranger to her. She had no recollection of him at all.

Was this because she really had amnesia? Or was this some sort of ploy? "Sigh, the doctor did tell me that you were seriously injured. He said that it would cause short-term amnesia and that you might forget about me ... To be honest, I'm incredibly upset about that, but I'm so glad that you survived that fall. We can make up for the lost memories together in the future," Loomis said gently.

"Make up?" Willa questioned in confusion. Did she really lose her memory and forgot about this man?

"Yes, let's build new memories together," Loomis reached out towards her again, trying to hold her hand in his.

"Don't touch me!" Willa snapped, taking a hurried step back from the man which almost made her lose her balance. Then, she continued in a panic, "I need some time. I'm sure I'll remember it soon ... "

"Alright, I'll give you time. Be careful," Loomis said in reply, trying to cover up his outrage at this woman's stubbornness.

He found her stubborn nature equally enticing as well. She had become more attractive to him now. He wanted to conquer her.

"I'm sorry, I shouldn't be yelling at you like that. But please understand that I just need some time alone," Willa lowered her voice.

After all, he had saved her life. It was not right for her to raise her voice at him.

"It's okay. Rest up a little, alright?" Loomis replied softly in dismay.

"Are you really my lover?" Willa asked once more.

"Alas, I don't think I am now ... " "Can you briefly tell me what happened between us?" Willa asked then, feeling curious. She really had no memory of their time together at all.

"Of course! Well, we first met at a gathering. When I first spotted you, you had been all on your own, so I wanted to come to say hi to you. When I got over to you, you actually refused me! You even slapped me! I didn't know what to do with myself after that. But a little while later, you eventually came up to me and apologized. We became friends after that ... "

"The first time I kissed you was on the rooftop. At that time, the moon lit up your features and you looked mesmerizing ... I couldn't resist but give you a kiss that day and you haven't refused me ever since," Loomis said with a smile as he recalled their 'memories'.

"On the rooftop? No, no, I distinctly remember it being the lawn ... Yes, it was outside the bar! A man had kissed me, it was just a slight peck on my lips. That was my first kiss ... " Willa muttered to herself.

The situation was not going great for Loomis.

In his annoyance, he had managed to think of a way to spin this around, "You still remember your ex.boyfriend? "

"Ex-boyfriend?" Willa echoed. She was at a loss.

"Yes, don't you remember what he did to you? He was abusive! He always treated you like dirt! He would always beat you, yell at you... Have you forgotten all that? The person who took your first kiss is a b*stard!" Loomis exclaimed.

"A b*stard?" Willa was confused beyond belief now. She did not understand why she would cherish this kiss so much if that was the case. It simply made no sense!
