Chapter 134: Are You Mesmerized By Me
On the other end-
"You like guys of older men type?" Nash randomly shot a question at Charlotte before picking up a small cube of watermelon from the fruit platter and popping it into his mouth.
Like a little ruffian, he turned to the man’s direction and, with a smirk, commented, "Your choice is not bad after all."
He then looked back at the girl in front and gave an apologetic smile. "I meant that man! He has quite a good taste..."
"... Screw you!!"
Charlotte shot him a furious look. "What do you men look at, anyway?" she demanded. "He is only six years older than me... only six years older. You like her type, too?"
Charlotte felt a pang of discouragement at his words, but Nash’s next statement was like a slap in the face. "She’s not my type, anyway!" he declared, his evil grin spreading wide across his face.
Charlotte raised an eyebrow. "Hah! You have a pretty varied taste."
Nash chuckled. "Well, I am easy to please and not at all fussy. Even someone like you can get my attention."
Charlotte’s face burned with indignation. "Ugh, you no doubt became the infamous playboy at your school." she retorted, her voice dripping with disdain.
Soon the dishes that Charlotte and Nash had ordered were served up.
After cutting the steak into small bite-sized pieces, He pushed his plate toward her, then nonchalantly took her steak which she had yet to touch for himself. That gentlemanly display of his had her staring at him with much stupefaction.
"What are you looking at? Are you mesmerized by me?" He lifted a brow and smiled.
There was no way could she not admit that his smile... was indeed really charming!
"No hope! I don’t fall in love with someone who is younger than me."
Nevertheless, Charlotte spat her tongue at him before ignoring him and then proceeded to eat the steak in front of her.
Right away, Nash felt a piercing stare, filled with hostility, boring through his back.
He asked the girl, "Your crush doesn’t like you?"
It felt as though she was suddenly poked in her sore spot, which made her lose a bit of her appetite. Eventually, she tossed the cutlery aside and ceased eating.
"Look at your pathetic self.. Sister Charlotte!" cried Nash in disdain .At that, he cut a piece of steak from his plate and delivered it to her mouth. "Come on, open your mouth!"
"I don’t want to!"Charlotte turned her face away.
"Sister Charlotte! Do you want your man to like you or not?"
"You have a way?" Her eyes sparkled with delight.
"Open your mouth then!" he ordered.
Her lips remained tightly shut, however.
"Idiot-" He chided her for her incompetency before urging, "Hurry. If you don’t give it a try, how are you going to find out whether he has any romantic feelings for you or not?"
"?"
She had no idea at all what he was trying to do here.
Nevertheless, she obediently opened her mouth after hearing what he said and took that mouthful of steak into her mouth.
That instant when Ryan saw her parting her rosy cherry-like lips and eating that mouthful of steak Nash was feeding her, an inexplicable surge of fury immediately rose within him.
He even... found that girl Charlotte’s action to be so sexy and teasing to the extent he did not want her to do it in front of other men!
"Sister Charlotte ,your man is coming our way!" Nash suddenly cried out in warning.
Stunned, she tilted her head only to see Ryan, with a long and solemn face, coldly approaching them.
The fact that he had his suit jacket casually draped over his arm obviously meant that he had the intention to leave.
Sure enough, as soon as he came over, the domineering man pulled her hand and coldly ordered, "Come home with me."
"But I haven’t finished my meal yet." Charlotte replied.
"Charlotte, I’ll repeat myself only once." he said firmly. "Come with me. I’ll drop you off at your home."
Naturally, Charlotte did not resist him. She obediently got up and followed after him, instead.
Before she left the restaurant, she did not forget to secretly finger an ’OK’ sign to the guy behind to express her gratitude.
The latter shook his head.
’Tsk Tsk.’
No wonder this sister Charlotte failed to get the man. She doesn’t even know the simplest rule of playing hard to get what she wants.
Back in his car, Ryan’s face was of an awful shade.The two of them had kept their silence throughout the journey.
Since the man did not speak, Charlotte naturally dared not say a word either.
An uncomfortable thirty minutes passed before the car finally came to a stop in front of her mansion.
Charlotte hastily unbuckled her seat belt in an attempt to escape from his car.
Unfortunately before she could push the door to open,a large and strong hand clasped on her shoulder and pressed her back to her seat.
She was seated properly in the seat again before she even showed the slightest reaction.
"Is he your new boyfriend?" The look on Ryan’s face was eerily cold and the gaze he affixed on her was so sharp it could pierce right through her.
"No." She shook her head and told the truth, "We’re only acquaintances!"
We are not even considered friends!
"Only acquaintances?" The man squinted his eyes dangerously as his grave and stern face drew close to her. In his fury, he hooked her chin up with his big hand to force her to meet his gaze. "Charlotte, an ordinary friend of yours can get so intimate with you to the extent of sucking your finger and feeding your food?"
It was only after a good while of staring at the heated man.She even deliberately pressed her face closer to his in provocation such that there was only half an inch of space between them and their breathing. Her gaze remained fixed on his dark orbs as they met each other’s eves She then whispered "Ryan are you jealous?"
With a slight arch of his cold brow, Ryan shot Charlotte a piercing look, his sharp, blade-like eyes gleaming in the dim light. He released his grip on her chin and pushed open the car door, stepping out onto the driveway.
It wasn’t until Charlotte had calmed herself down that she followed suit, alighting from the vehicle.
Despite his cold and grave demeanor, waves of hostility emanating from him, Charlotte found Ryan extraordinarily charming. His domineering and aggressive presence had captured her heart, drawing her in like a magnet.
As she was about to turn in the direction of the mansion..
Bang!
Ryan suddenly reached out and aggressively slammed her against the car, his movements swift and forceful.
Her breaths inexplicably became bated.
Leaning over her slightly, the man lowered his gaze as he looked down condescendingly at her and asked in his deep voice, "How far have you gone with that guy?"
"?" She blinked her eyes at him in confusion.
He then tapped her on the nose before warning her sternly, "Keep a distance from him from now on! I dislike seeing you two together! Do you hear me?!"
Tyrant!! Totally a Tyrant !
In fact, she wanted to shoot back a retort at him, saying,"I too, detest seeing you and Ava together!"
Charlotte stared at his long, slender finger and, all of a sudden, opened her mouth to bite that finger of his which he used to point at her.
She had picked up this trick from her junior.
Sure enough, this young girl in front of him had already been corrupted by that guy’s bad influences just by having a meal with him!
Despite her biting down harshly on his finger, she dared not use her tongue and suck on it. The sight of Ryan’s orbs turning dark and pensive cowed her into hastily releasing her hold on his finger.
There was a row of shallow teeth marks on the flesh of his index finger.
A myriad of mixed emotions flowed across Ryan’s dark eyes as his sexy Adam’s apple bobbed. "Did that guy teach you this trick?"
Does she know exactly what this action means to a man?!
It means... sexual provocation!!
"I learned it from h...online while reading an article.." she murmured.
