Chapter 28
After everyone left, Aidan Lucas turned and walked into the bathroom.
As soon as the bathroom door opened, a petite figure approached him.
“Are they gone? That scared me to death… I thought they were going to break in. How did you do it? How did they believe you…”
Lily Gray patted her chest, completely unaware of her appearance.
Aidan Lucas narrowed his eyes, very satisfied with what he saw.
The oversized white shirt had become loose and disheveled after a few tugs, and through the wide-open collar, he could take in the full view of her body below it.
There were marks on her porcelain-like skin where he had kissed her last night.
The woman was still describing the tense situation just now, but he was gradually filled with a strange feeling.
A glimmer of fire flashed in his eyes.
“Lily Gray.” He suddenly spoke, interrupting her.
“You… know who I am?” Lily Gray showed wariness. If he knew who she was, that meant he wasn’t a man she had met by chance after getting drunk.
“Not only do I know who you are, but I also know… that soon, you’ll become my woman.” He gently pushed her against the wall, placing both hands on either side of her head, trapping her between himself and the wall.
Bang!
That was the word that popped into Lily Gray’s mind.
“Listen.” The man’s voice rang in her ear, “I’ve already given you a week to think about it, but clearly, your performance this week has disappointed me. So…”
He reached out his slender fingers to grip her chin, “This time, I won’t give you another chance to think about it.”
“You…” Lily Gray’s mind went blank for a moment, and it wasn’t until the man’s thin lips touched hers again that she slowly came to her senses.
Her memory of last night was blurry.
When she woke up this morning, she was too panicked to notice any similarities between this man and the one from before.
But now, as the confusion and tension faded, she suddenly realized…
This man’s kiss, his domineering style that nearly suffocated her, closely resembled the man who had taken her first time.
“Who are you, after all…” When the kiss ended, she finally found a chance to speak.
“What, you still don’t know who I am?” His forehead pressed against hers as he looked at her charming peach blossom eyes filled with confusion.
He reached out to tuck a loose strand of her hair behind her ear: “If you don’t know who I am, then why do you keep provoking me again and again, hm?”
She shook her head, her face full of helplessness: “I’m sorry, Sir, I didn’t mean to…both times.”
The first time was an unintentional intrusion, but she had to admit that she had deliberately retaliated against Austin Lucas, causing the outcome. The second time, obviously, she had been drunk last night.
And this man, he had probably been at the banquet too.
Fragmented memories told her how forward she had been last night. She could almost imagine herself, drunk and pulling him straight into the room.
“I – I know it may be hard for you to believe, but… both times, for me, were just accidents. I hope you can… can forget about this.”
As she felt the atmosphere become oppressive, she continued: “If you want compensation or have any other demands, you can tell me, 1 promise… I’ll do my best to satisfy you..”
