SWNOVELS Chapter 20
Chapter 020 Drag Her into the Room
It rained heavily the next day.
The temperature difference in LA. between day and night was huge, and the rainy night was even colder.
Stacey sat in Hogan’s car, which drove all the way from the Barnes Group to Hogan’s villa.
The scenery on the street flashed before Stacey’s eyes quickly, and the car windows were full of raindrops, blurring her vision.
The thought of living with Hogan made Stacey feel pain in her heart. She was not willing to live with him. Faced with Hogan’s oppression, Stacey felt very helpless.
The two were silent all the way, and the atmosphere in the car was eerily quiet.
A sudden ringing of the mobile phone interrupted the silence between the two. Hogan held the steering wheel with one hand and took out the phone with the other.
Stacey glanced vaguely, just to see the word Kama displayed on the phone screen.
Hogan pressed the decline button and hung up Kama’s call.
“Why didn’t you answer? She might have something urgent.”
Even if Hogan threw Stacey on the road again, Stacey would just accept it, at least she could escape again today.

Stacey deliberately lowered her voice, but it still made Hogan slightly displeased when he heard it.
After all, Stacey was his woman, and when other women called him, she didn’t feel jealous at all?
The car turned a corner and drove into the villa area, then stopped steadily. Stacey was almost dragged into the house by Hogan.
The maids and bodyguards waiting on the first floor bowed and called politely, “Mr. Barnes, Ms. White.”
He dragged Stacey into the room and locked the door. Hogan pulled her into his arms and kissed her passionately.
Stacey’s mind went blank for a moment.
Hogan didn’t smell perfume today, but a faint smell of tobacco. Hogan was a heavy smoker.
He couldn’t wait to carry her to the bed, and Stacey grabbed Hogan’s skirt. She knew this was her fate today, no matter how much she tried to struggle, it would come sooner or later.
Her clothes were buttoned by Hogan, but the next moment, Hogan’s movements suddenly stopped.
The scars on Stacey’s body were shocking.
Apart from the purple pinch marks on her wrists and the hickey marks on her body, there were lots of scratches.
She didn’t have these when she was with him last night, and Hogan frowned, “How the hell did this happen?”
“Just scratches.”

Stacey’s answer was a no–brainer.
Hogan’s eyes darkened, Stacey was with other men besides him? This was something Hogan couldn’t accept.
“Who did this?”
Hogan’s cold voice sounded, and a tyrannical aura instantly surrounded Stacey.
“No one, I made them myself.”
Hogan was kind of stunned, “Do you have masochistic tendencies?”
“No, no.” Stacey shook her head hastily, her mind was running fast, and then she found an excuse casually, “I was allergic to your perfume last night, and it was itchy.””
In a word, Stacey put all the blame on Hogan.
Hogan raised his fist at her, then slammed into her angrily. Facing the unknown pain, Stacey stared into Hogan’s eyes.
To Stacey’s surprise, Hogan’s fist slammed hard on the bed beneath her.
Looking at the scars on her body, Hogan lost interest.
“You are safe today.”
“Thank you.” Stacey let out a long sigh of relief. Although she was happy, she resisted showing it in front of him.
“Save that.” Hogan got up and straightened his clothes, then he took out his phone and dialed downstairs, “Martin, the chef can leave now, Stacey will cook dinner today.”

“Mr. Barnes?”
Hogan had two senior chefs, two maids, Martin, and a group of housekeepers. Even though he lived in a villa, he lived like a king living in a palace.
But just now Hogan said that the chef could leave and asked her to cook?
“Are you deaf? Go down and cook.” Hogan scolded, turned, and walked away.
Stacey was left alone in the room for a moment, and she said displeasedly, “No, I won’t cook for you.”
But five minutes later, Stacey still appeared in the kitchen.
Doreen was in charge of helping Stacey, and Martin stood behind Stacey respectfully, with a slight smile on his lips, “Ms. White, are you living here now?”

Martin’s impression of Stacey was not bad, and his initial concern stemmed from the fact that Stacey was Hogan’s stepsister.
Hogan brought her to the villa later, then Martin knew something more. Before Stacey, Hogan never brought home a woman other than Kama.
Hogan treated her differently. Now Stacey lived in the villa, once she was pregnant with his boss‘ baby, she would be Mrs. Barnes in the future.
“No, I just live here when it is even number.”
“So that’s the case. Ms. White, no offense, can you cook?”

“What do you think?” Stacey waved a knife in front of Martin. Although her cooking was not as good as the restaurant chef’s, she could cook.
Martin nodded with a smile, “Then I’d better not bother you.”
Stacey didn’t know if it was notified by Martin, or Hogan just came on time. As soon as the food was served, Hogan appeared in Stacey’s sight.
Hogan walked to the table and sat down, took a sip of the soup, and brought it to Stacey’s mouth, “Drink.”
“Mr. Barnes, if you don’t trust me, why did you ask me to cook?”
He thought she had poisoned her food?
“Martin watched as I cooked.”
“Drink it.” Hogan didn’t seem to listen to Stacey’s words at all, and he gave the order again, with a serious look on his face.
Stacey was speechless and leaned over to drink it.
Seeing this scene, Martin turned and left silently. It was really rare to see Hogan care about others when eating.
Hogan took a bite of her cooking, it looked good and tasted good, so he ate in silence with no other expression on his face.
Stacey pursed her lips, whether it was delicious or not, he should make a statement anyway.
He just kept silent like this, and it really bothered Stacey very much not knowing what he thought.

After Hogan finished, he put his knife and fork on the table. His eyes fell on Stacey’s face, and he said, “Follow me upstairs” Then he just turned and left.
Stacey froze.
What?
Hogan was done, but she wasn’t yet!
Martin and Doreen didn’t know where to hide. For a while, Stacey was the only one left in the living room. Since she was almost finished eating and to prevent Hogan from losing his temper, Stacey followed Hogan upstairs.
Hogan held her tightly in his arms for the whole long night.
Stacey huddled against his chest, and she could feel Hogan’s heartbeat clearly.
So that night, Stacey couldn’t sleep at all.
