Is she taking care of herself? Why is she hospitalized?<\/p>\n<p>But she misunderstands eventually.<\/p>\n<p>Moreover, she and Steven seem to be getting closer and closer.<\/p>\n<p>What surprises me the most is seeing her in KTV that night.<\/p>\n<p>She actually wants to take off my underwear.<\/p>\n<p>No one knows how fast my heart beats when I see her frightened cute face.<\/p>\n<p>My blood flows directly to where her soft hand is.<\/p>\n<p>People are kicking up a fuss behind us and I can tell that they are just playing a game, but I can&#8217;t stop my feelings.<\/p>\n<p>I pick up my glass and take a big sip of the wine to calm myself down.<\/p>\n<p>I walk over and ask in a low voice, &#8220;What&#8217;s going on?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Someone says, &#8220;We are playing Truth or Dare and she chose Dare, so I asked her to come over, pick a man, and take off his underwear. If I had known you are the only one here, I wouldn&#8217;t have said that.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>However, I feel lucky to be the only one in this room.<\/p>\n<p>If it was another man, I would probably chop him up.<\/p>\n<p>Almost everyone around knows me.<\/p>\n<p>She is a little scared and wants to go back, but how can I let go of such a rare opportunity to tease her?<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Admit defeat. Since you chose Dare, how can you just leave like this?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>I look at her with a smile.<\/p>\n<p>Looking at her eyes, I can tell she becomes even more panicked.<\/p>\n<p>She forces a smile and says to me, &#8220;Forget it, Mr. Frances. You are decent. How can you lose face like this?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>For her, I don&#8217;t mind losing face.<\/p>\n<p>I lean over and whisper in her ear flirtatiously, &#8220;I don&#8217;t mind.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Did you hear what Mr. Frances said? Go!&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Right! Let us see Mr. Frances&#8217; taste on underwear!&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The group is kicking up a fuss next to us.<\/p>\n<p>She seems to have no way to back down.<\/p>\n<p>At this moment, someone pushes her.<\/p>\n<p>She falls towards me and grabs the leg of my trousers.<\/p>\n<p>My most sensitive part feels her warm breath.<\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s enough to ignite my feelings even when I&#8217;m not naked.<\/p>\n<p>My voice becomes rough with suppressed emotions. &#8220;You are so active. Have you been thinking about this for a long time?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Looks like Mr. Frances can take jokes.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Aren&#8217;t these damn rubbernecks going out?<\/p>\n<p>I frown in displeasure and say sternly to the third wheels, &#8220;Don&#8217;t tell me you want to stay here for the show.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The rubbernecks finally leave, leaving only me and her. I suddenly feel something in the air.<\/p>\n<p>She looks so frightened. I end up giving up teasing her and ask her in a low voice, &#8220;Do you think they&#8217;ll let you go if you don&#8217;t finish the game?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>She shrugs helplessly and raises her eyebrows. &#8220;So, are you going to take off your underwear and let me take it away?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>I don&#8217;t expect her to say such bold words.<\/p>\n<p>For a moment, I don&#8217;t know how to respond.<\/p>\n<p>However, I absolutely have to be more imposing than her.<\/p>\n<p>I curl my lips and say to her indifferently, &#8220;Do as you please. I will not resist.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Not surprisingly, she looks at me in anger.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Dirty bastard!&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>This is not the first time she has scolded me like this.<\/p>\n<p>If anyone else calls me dirty bastard, I will definitely be irritated. But when she says this, I&#8217;m not angry at all.<\/p>\n<p>I can only say to her helplessly, &#8220;You have two choices now.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;You can either take my underwear and go back to the game or leave here with me.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>I guess she will definitely choose the latter.<\/p>\n<p>But she is always unpredictable.<\/p>\n<p>She takes a deep breath and stretches out her trembling hands toward my belt.<\/p>\n<p>This damn woman. I almost can&#8217;t control myself.<\/p>\n<p>I take a deep breath, grab her hand, and walk out.<\/p>\n<p>After getting in the car, I don&#8217;t start it realizing that those people are still following and watching.<\/p>\n<p>But she says firmly, &#8220;Don&#8217;t think about it. I won&#8217;t agree.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>What is this woman thinking all day long?<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I&#8217;m above looting a burning house.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Aren&#8217;t you shameless to say that? At that time after the meal&#8230;&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>She stops without finishing her words.<\/p>\n<p>But I know what she wants to say.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I didn&#8217;t touch you that night.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>More precisely, I stopped as soon as I realized she is a virgin.<\/p>\n<p>I didn&#8217;t want to take away her precious first time under that circumstances.<\/p>\n<p>So, I used my hands.<\/p>\n<p>To help her as well as myself.<\/p>\n<p>Of course, I rubbed against her body for a long time. But I definitely won&#8217;t tell her how awkward I acted because I don&#8217;t want to lose my dignity as a man.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;That night, my hands worked hard,&#8221; I say indifferently.<\/p>\n<p>She remains silent for a long time.<\/p>\n<p>My heart beats fast when I see her slightly open her mouth.<\/p>\n<p>However, is she questioning my ability by looking at me like that?<\/p>\n<p>No man can stand this.<\/p>\n<p>I smile and flatter with her, &#8220;I offered you the chance to try my ability. It&#8217;s not too late for you to change your mind now.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Don&#8217;t think too much. I will pay back the money I owe you. As for your request, don&#8217;t even think about it.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>With that, she suddenly asks me in confusion, &#8220;How much is your car?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;4.5 million,&#8221; I reply and know why she asks this.<\/p>\n<p>She widens her eyes and asks me doubtfully, &#8220;Your car is 4.5 million, but the repairing alone costs 1.8 million? Are you kidding me?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>I can tell this woman doesn&#8217;t understand.<\/p>\n<p>My car is a limited edition in these many years. It&#8217;s priceless and not in the market, so it&#8217;s certainly expensive to repair it.<\/p>\n<p>Of course, I don&#8217;t care about the money. All I want is to tie her down.<\/p>\n<p>I take out a few receipts from the side and hand them to her.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Here are the receipts. Take a look. My car is imported and the paint alone costs 600,000. The adjustments and the freight also cost. There are also a lot of fees that you don&#8217;t understand. You can do installment payments.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>She purses her lips and says sullenly, &#8220;I&#8217;ll pay you back. Thank you for helping me tonight. I&#8217;ll treat you to dinner sometime.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>If a hero saves a beauty, shouldn&#8217;t she pledge to marry him?<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;m a little dissatisfied with her answer.<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;ve always been proud and mighty and will feel embarrassed to tell her that I&#8217;ve been loving her secretly since high school and have done so many things for her.<\/p>\n<p>Since I&#8217;ve decided to start over with her, I don&#8217;t want to mention the past.<\/p>\n<p>After calming myself down, I say to her in a deep voice, &#8220;Jane, do you know the Louis Group lost tens of millions because of what Frank did? Although for the Louis Group, it&#8217;s a drop in the bucket, do you actually think one night with you costs this much? Don&#8217;t overestimate your value.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>This is not my innermost thought.<\/p>\n<p>I don&#8217;t know why I say this.<\/p>\n<p>Am I losing my mind in front of her?<\/p>\n<p>However, what&#8217;s done cannot be undone. It&#8217;s impossible to take my words back.<\/p>\n<p>She becomes even more disappointed.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;So, do you mean &#8230; you won&#8217;t help me?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Her body becomes stiffer and stiffer.<\/p>\n<p>But we are too close, and my desire rises again.<\/p>\n<p>I want her, and I can&#8217;t control myself.<\/p>\n<p>As long as I see her, my so-called self-control that I&#8217;m proud of becomes a breakable bubble.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I didn&#8217;t say that.&#8221; I&#8217;m all over her with my hot desire against her softness.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;If I&#8217;m satisfied, I may agree to help you. It totally depends on how hard you work.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>We do it again, but she seems to be very reluctant.<\/p>\n<p>I know I have to find a way to keep her with me.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Move in and live with me. If you serve me well, I will definitely let Frank go.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>She shakes her head and says to me, &#8220;I don&#8217;t have to live here. I promise to come as long as you need me.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Does she think that I only want her for my sexual desire?<\/p>\n<p>What I want is to have her by my side.<\/p>\n<p>She is the first person I want to see every morning when I open my eyes.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Do you think you have the right to bargain with me?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;m very glad that I have something on her, so she has to compromise.<\/p>\n<p>As I expect, in the end, she can only agree. &#8220;I will go back and pack my things.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Hearing this, I nod in satisfaction, walk over, and put my hand on her shoulder. &#8220;Good girl. Listen to me, and I may be mercy. You don&#8217;t have to pack your things. I&#8217;ll buy you what you need.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>I think all women love to hear that.<\/p>\n<p>But I just happen to forget that she&#8217;s never the same as any other woman.<\/p>\n<p>And that&#8217;s why I&#8217;m obsessed with her.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I have to go back and pack up. There are things that money can&#8217;t buy.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Since she insists, I don&#8217;t stop her.<\/p>\n<p>Anyway, she will be mine.<\/p>\n<p>I request her to cook for me before she goes back to pack up.<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;ve been wanting to try the dishes she cooks for a long time.<\/p>\n<p>She cooks two bowls of noodles, which are much more delicious than I expect.<\/p>\n<p>After the meal, I send her back to Steven&#8217;s place to pack her things.<\/p>\n<p>I can tell that Steven doesn&#8217;t want her to leave at all. The way he looks at me is hostile.<\/p>\n<p>This time, I&#8217;m even more certain that Steven likes her.<\/p>\n<p>Looks like I make the right decision to let her move out of here before it&#8217;s too late.<\/p>\n<p>Then, she moves over.<\/p>\n<p>I have to work overtime at night. So, I prepare another bedroom for her in order not to disturb her.<\/p>\n<p>Although I really want to hug her to sleep, I&#8217;m already lucky enough to be able to see her every day.<\/p>\n<p>One day, Anny comes again.<\/p>\n<p>I think she just drops by to visit me. But as soon as she speaks, my heart almost stops.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-650","chapter","type-chapter","status-publish","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/icuow.top\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/chapter\/650","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"http:\/\/icuow.top\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/chapter"}],"about":[{"href":"http:\/\/icuow.top\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/chapter"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"http:\/\/icuow.top\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=650"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
