Nicole desperately wanted to break free from Kerr's hold, but the man was having none of it. He ignored her and headed straight for the elevator.
"Too late."
Kerr couldn't help but smile as he saw the look of embarrassment etched on the face of the woman in his arms. He tightened his hold, letting her know that he had no intention of letting go.
He bent over and whispered in her ear, his voice sounding enchanting,
"Did you sleep well last night?"
Hearing what he said, Nicole was obviously stunned and couldn't help but glare at him.
"Quite the contrary, actually, I'm used to sleeping in a larger bed. Whenever there is someone else on the bed, I can't sleep well! "
She didn't want to give Kerr the satisfaction of being right. She was going to drown any chance for him to fantasize, so she expressed her discontent significantly.
But the smile on Kerr's face seemed to linger in her mind, which made Nicole feel all warm and fuzzy, and made her a little dizzy. The cold expression that grazed his face all the time being replaced by a smile was new.
She had to admit, but only to herself, that she liked Kerr's smile.
If she was being honest, Kerr's bed was far from small. Even if the three of them slept on the bed, there was still much room. She just wanted to find a reason to refuse him.
"I will help you sleep well."
There was no sign of displeasure on his face. Instead, a wicked glint flashed through his eyes. 'There is no way you can escape from me!' the CEO thought.
He could always get the woman he wanted easily, but this time, he not only wanted Nicole's body, he also wanted to capture her heart.
"This is my stop."
When the elevator stopped at the floor where her office was, Nicole got her chance and jumped out of Kerr's arms.
As she was about to walk out of the elevator though, Kerr held her hand. Then with a little more strength, he pulled Nicole back and gently tucked the stray hair o
Drugged one night by her ex-boyfriend, a mysterious man took advantage of her in an ecstatic night filled with sex.
To take her revenge, she married the man, and used him.
"As long as I'm alive, I'm still his legal wife, while all of you are just his mistresses."
She remained adamant even when he was involved in scandals with other women.
Eventually she stormed off after she learned that he had betrayed her again.But life brought her back to him a few years later, to his astonishment.
a long time, she answered.
"Nicole, where are you?"
Upon hearing Baron's voice, emotions rushed through her. The events of the previous night came flooding back. She lifted her hand and gently rubbed her forehead to ease the tension that was rising in her head.
"I'm working. What's up?"
She didn't know what Baron was going to say to her. After she left the Fang Group's gathering last night, she didn't contact Baron again. She felt that they should be given a chance to think about what had happened. It was a lot to take in.
"Can we talk? I'm at the entrance of the Gu Group."
Baron sensed the alienation in Nicole's tone. He didn't blame her, because he knew that what his mother did last night had pushed her over the limit, and that was his fault.
"Can't you just tell me over the phone?"
She stood up and walked to the window. The floor was so high that she couldn't see Baron's car. She didn't know how to face him now.
"I have something to tell you. It won't take too long."
He didn't expect that Nicole wouldn't want to meet him face to face. There was an obvious sense of loss in his tone, but he had to tell her in person.
"All right."
Nicole didn't want to lose her friend because of last night's occurrence. After all, in Manhattan, Baron did help her a lot.
