It'll Come Naturally

"You still have no shame. Why are you always chasing after a man who wants nothing to do with you? Oh, I get it. You are a thug. So how is it possible that you would have any shame at all?" Luke sneered. He used the worst words he could come up with to insult her. "What... What did you just say?!" Michelle widened her eyes at him. Her lips quivered in shock. She knew Luke disliked her but she couldn't believe that he would throw such hurtful words to mock her.

"What, didn't I make myself clear enough? Or do you want to hear what I said one more time?" Luke gritted his teeth and looked her over from head to toe. Despite the fact that he just talked to her so hatefully, he could not help but feel sorry when he caught a glimpse of the sadness that lingered in her eyes. The guilt caught him off-guard. It was strange to experience such a feeling.

"Yes, you are right. I'm a thug and I don't have any shame. That's why I keep chasing after you regardless of what other people think and how they taunt me. But if you think I'll give up on you so easily just because of the way you insulted me, you have another think coming. You underestimate how far I can go!" Michelle felt like her heart was being torn apart, but she still forced a bright smile on her face. He was right. She could indeed be quite shameless.

"Michelle, I'm warning you; stop following me and trying to get close to me. You don't know what I could do to you if you persist." Luke's hand still rested around her neck. He could have strangled her if he exerted enough strength to squeeze her neck.

"Haha! Whatever. So you want to kill me? Just do it then! I'd rather die than live like the walking dead," Michelle said as she closed her eyes and waited for his next move. She suddenly felt relieved. Should she die, she would not have to suffer from insomnia all night long, working out ways to get closer to him. She would not be so careless as to run after a man who looked like him on the street.

"You mad woman! You are not even qualified to be killed by me." Luke finally let go of her. Did she really want to die? Well, he would not let her wish come true!

"Does it make you feel better when you insult me like this? You say that I am a shameless woman but I am not asking for too much. I don't expect you to fall in love with me someday. All I want is for you to allow me to be around you. That's all I ask. It's such a humble request. Why are you denying me?"

Michelle asked him, dejected. She stared into Luke's eyes imploringly. People said that one could not force a person to fall in love with them. Yes, she was a thug, just as he described. She had been spoiled by her family ever since she was a little girl. She was used to bossing around and demanding things. It was not easy for her to accept rejection from someone.

"Can't you just finish this? Why are you being so stubborn? So that's your request, huh? To be around me? Fine! I'm okay with it. But if you try to ask for more, you would be gravely disappointed. I'm not the right person for you," Luke said before throwing her aside. He drove away without any hesitation. After all, he still had work to do. That was his priority. Not some girl who kept stalking him.

This time, Michelle did not make any response. Instead, she stayed on the ground, dumbfounded. Luke's words lingered on her mind. Had he just accepted her request?

The moment Luke drove away, he regretted it immediately. Damn it! Why did he say that? He was just angry and wanted to hurt her. How he wished he could take those words back. But it was too late.

"Miss, let's go back!" Michelle's men walked over and looked at her with concern in their eyes.

"Stay away! All of you, stay away from me!" They were the reason Luke had been so harsh on her. Michelle wished she could hide somewhere and never come out. If these men did not exist, she would not have been a thug in Luke's eyes.

The men stared at her, somewhat panicked at her screams. They didn't think Luke was a good man. He behaved so coldly, as if he was born in Antarctica. It was a mystery why Michelle liked that man so much and tried every possible way to reach him. Luke was lucky that Michelle was into him. He'd better take the opportunity given to him. They would have certainly shot him if he was anyone else.

"Did I not make myself clear? Go away! Are you people deaf? Go away! All of you!" Michelle was unable to control her emotions. She rose to her feet unsteadily and staggered forward.

The men stared at each other. They had no choice but to run after Michelle, otherwise they would be punished severely by the boss if something bad happened to his daughter.

Luke said Michelle was not qualified for him, that she was shameless and a stalker. He used the meanest words to malign her. Still, Michelle did not cry. Instead, she felt like laughing out loud. 'Luke, you look down upon me? I would never have liked you or your cold attitude towards me if I was prone to giving up so easily. Now that I have chosen to love you, I will never stop until I have achieved my goal. I will pursue you endlessly, whether you like it or not. Don't try to escape me, unless you really want to shoot me.'0000
