“Mister Aaron, please stop joking like this!” Annie was annoyed at Aaron for not taking things seriously.
Aaron stopped smiling and looked deeply into her eyes. “I’m not joking. I’m being serious.”
Annie could hear her heart thumping very loudly. She did not believe him. In fact, she felt like he was playing with
her feelings. “Even if you’re serious, it’s too late ’cause I already have a boyfriend.”
Aaron passed her his phone. “That can be easily taken care of. You just need to call him and break up with him.”
Annie was shocked. She shot up from the bed and growled, “Is this how you see a relationship? That you can break
up with someone just like that? You might not respect Marcus, but I do! He’s very good to me, so I’m never going to
break up with him.”
“Do you like him, though?” asked Aaron with a smirk.
Annie’s eyes flashed. “Of course I do! I mean, why would I agree to be with him if I don’t?”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtAaron smiled. “No. You don’t like him.”
It was like Aaron had seen right through her. She frowned and said, “You don’t speak for me! Who do I like, if not
my own boyfriend?”
Aaron stood up and leaned down on her. “You…like…me.”
Annie’s eyes darted to the window anxiously. “I… I… Fine! It’s true. You’re the guy that I like! But what’s the point?
You don’t like me at all, so you can’t expect me to keep pining for you, right? What’s so wrong with wanting to move
on with another guy who treats me well?”
“No! You can’t do that.” Aaron put both of his hands on the closet, effectively trapping Annie between his arms so
that she had no choice but to look at him.
“Why not? Who are you to tell me what to do? I don’t work for you anymore.”
Aaron leaned down closer to her. “Because I’ve realized that I actually quite like you. Why would you be with
another man when we can be together?”
Annie was stunned. She thought she had heard wrong. ‘Did he just say he likes me? Is this…a confession? No,
Annie! Wake up! He’s a serial flirter, remember? He’ll hump anything that moves!’
With that thought in mind, Annie looked boldly into his eyes and said, “Mister Aaron, I’m afraid I can’t agree to be
your girlfriend. There’s no guarantee you won’t cheat on me.”
Aaron smiled, half-closed his eyes, and whispered into her ear seductively, “You should know you’re the first girl I’ve
ever confessed my feelings to. Are you sure you’re going to reject me?”
‘Ha! Only a fool would believe him!’ She recalled all the different women who came out of his office with their
clothes and hair all messed up. She would never believe him!
Annie shook her head to clear her mind. “Mister Aaron, are you saying all this because you can’t stand seeing me
with someone else? So you want to see if you can get me back to prove you’re still as charming as ever? If that’s
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmthe case, I suggest you let me go. I’m not the kind of girl who can fall head over heels just to be dumped in the
end.”
Aaron knew he himself had done a lot of hurtful things in the past. He buried his head into her shoulder and said
coquettishly, “I’m being very serious…”
Annie’s heart started to tremble. ‘What… What is he trying to pull here?’
Even though she told herself not to give in to him, she still found herself unable to hold herself back. ‘Sh*t… I don’t
think I can hold on anymore.’
“Uh… Mister Aaron, I…”
“Shh… Don’t say anything until you’ve heard what I have to say,” said Aaron raspily. He kept her trapped between
his arms.
The reason he buried his head into her shoulder was that he did not dare to face her after doing so many hurtful
things to her in the past.
