Katrina breaks the awkward silence first, "Miss Roberts, I made some dishes. Would you like to try some?"
Victoria"s pretty face is full of rage, and she grits through her teeth, "No need!"
Eat the dishes that the tramp made? She feels like she"s going to get sick.
Victoria"s heart burns with anger. What concoction did this b.i.t.c.h feed Aaron to make her stay with him?
The innocent and harmless appearance is extremely deceitful.
Victoria walks over in her high heels and picks up her bag.
She feels a twinge in her heart at the scene. Since her father suddenly called for her, she can"t stay any longer.
Glaring at Katrina, Victoria bids Aaron goodbye. "Aaron, I"ll come back another day."
Aaron doesn"t ask her to stay. He just nods his head casually.
After Victoria leaves, Katrina feels slightly uncomfortable. She feels the hatred in Victoria"s eyes.
It seems she came at the wrong time today.
Unintentionally, she b.u.mps into Victoria and most likely disrupted her private time with Aaron.
No wonder Victoria hates her so much.
As a girl, Katrina knows well enough that Victoria likes Aaron.
Victoria always comes to visit Aaron from time to time to try to get closer to him, but she always unintentionally appears and stirs up trouble.
In the midst of Katrina"s thoughts, Aaron looks up at her. "What are you thinking about?"
"I... "Katrina speaks carefully, "Miss Roberts doesn"t seem to like me."
Aaron"s eyes grow darker to hear her soft and waxy voice, which seems a little sullen.
Although Victoria didn"t dare behave too presumptuously in front of him, she wasn"t very friendly to Katrina either.
Especially during the banquet, when Victoria pushed Katrina into the pool. Her actions that night further ill.u.s.trated her hatred for Katrina.
Although Aaron has long been dissatisfied with Victoria because of this, she"s still the mayor"s daughter. He doesn"t want to ruin his relations.h.i.+p with the mayor and behave disrespectfully.
Otherwise, he wouldn"t even spare the time to indulge her.
Since he found out the truth, he began to fight back for his woman.
With one arm around Katrina"s shoulder, Aaron rams her into his arms. "I love you. That"s enough, and it doesn"t matter how she feels."
His voice is deep and powerful, and she can feel the warmth of his chest as he breathes against her.
Even Katrina, who meant to leave a good impression, unconsciously turns red, and her heartbeat suddenly quickens.
She gets the feeling of being loved.
From childhood to adulthood, few people aside from her dead father would care about her like Aaron. It"s as if he wants to s.h.i.+eld her from all the danger and gossip.
At that moment, how could Katrina be indifferent?
Katrina almost becomes obsessed with his gentleness. But she soon calms herself down.
She came over to please Aaron and give him the impression that she"s willing to stay. To put it bluntly, she came to light the fire and fanned the smoke to delude him.
How could she succ.u.mb to him and lose herself to his sugar coated bullets?
No, she has to remain strong and immune. She has to pretend that nothing happened.
After all, Aaron is the great villain who imprisoned her against her will. For her freedom, her future life, and her spirit, she must fight him to the end.
As Katrina struggles in her heart, Aaron suddenly releases her from his embrace. With a slight frown on his face, he demands, "Katrina! Why aren"t you jealous to see another woman in my office?"
When Victoria walked in after her phone call, he didn"t see anything wrong in Katrina"s face. On the contrary, she asked Victoria to stay for a meal!
Aaron couldn"t help grinding his teeth at the memory of seeing Victoria at a pet store. Katrina told him back then that they made a good match.
This stupid, unreasonable woman!
She isn"t jealous or angry at all. She doesn"t care for him in her heart in any way.
Whenever she even glances at another guy, he wants to make that man disappear. But she has no feelings about him being in the presence of another woman.
Is she still trying to push him towards someone else?
Aaron"s question puzzles, Katrina"s mind,
"Er... "
She feels really tired.
As expected, Aaron"s character is unpredictable and outrageous. She was almost touched by his aggressive hug earlier. But now, he immediately changes his expression.
Just a moment ago, Katrina was only embarra.s.sed and felt no jealousy. The bitter emotion was something she didn"t feel.
"As a matter of fact, a little bit." Katrina has to answer defiantly.
Aaron"s face goes darker. "Just a little?"
She still doesn"t care much about him?
Looking at Aaron"s somber and slightly terrifying face, Katrina feels oppressed by him. She"s powerless to resist him and unable to escape.
Aaron grits his teeth and says coldly, "Think about how you can compensate me!"
Compensate him?
Katrina feels a bit wronged and retorts, "If you made me jealous, you should be the one to make it up to me! How could you expect me to make it up to you?"
His logic is completely twisted!
Hearing Katrina"s words, Aaron immediately smiles. His handsome face is like a sudden clearing after a storm, dazzling and captivating enough to prevent people from looking away.
Even Katrina is almost seduced by his beauty. Her eyes blur for a moment before she suddenly comes to herself.
Aaron"s thin lips open gently. "Fine." he says slowly.
Watching the smile on his lips and feeling his searing gaze, Katrina suddenly feels something is wrong.
Sure enough, Aaron pins her down on the couch in the next instant. Antic.i.p.ating his next move, Katrina quickly pushes him away. "Aaron, what are you doing?"
Is this his compensation? Why does she feel like he"s punis.h.i.+ng her?
"Of course, this is my compensation." Aaron says.
Gentle and domineering, he bends over her and kisses her lips. Long fingers slip into her clothes and caress her body.
"Aaron... Let me go... "
They"re in the office, he"s too brazen and unscrupulous!
If someone comes in now, she would feel mortified for herself.
His employees might a.s.sume that she"s the one seducing their boss in the office.
