Sir, Madame Has Run Away Again!

‘What Kind of Person Do I Think You Are? Of course, you are a beautiful woman to me!’ Richard smirked and gave me a nonchalant look.

“I think you misunderstood me. Yes, it is true that I would like to do the interior design of your company building, but I would like to achieve this through my skills and not through indecent business.’

‘Is that so? Then you’ll have to think twice, Miss Lilian.’ He was now trying to advise me, still looking like a hypocrite despite being rejected by me. ‘As a married woman, your value will go down no matter how beautiful you are. In contrast, I’m an eligible bachelor, and you can thank your lucky stars that I’m interested in you. So what’s so bad about becoming my wife? I will protect you and help you get what you want.’

‘You?’ I snorted. ‘Richard Tyson, I thought you were a gentleman for your polite behavior, but in fact you are a despicable person. Do you think I’m going to sell myself just on the interior design of a building?

‘Of course it’s not about the design; I just want to give you a chance for a fair deal. If you agree, I can give you anything you want, and yes, you can refuse too. However, you will have to consider the consequences of rejecting my offer, as there are many interior design companies with many famous designers. By the way, here’s a reminder for you: Jolene from Figuro Design and Co. has already approached us for collaboration talks.’

‘Fuck you!’ I cursed, unable to contain my anger the moment Jolene’s name was mentioned. It seemed like he knew there was some disagreement between the two of us, so he actually used it to tease me. This asshole, who was worse than Eric, could go on dreaming for an eternity for me to give in. ‘You can give the project to whoever you want, but you’re wrong if you think I’m going to give in to it. I have something else to attend to, so I won’t stay any longer!’

With that, I turned to leave, but I heard her voice coming from behind me. ‘Not bad. What a personality you have to swear like that!’

The tone of voice he used now was completely different from before, but the way he acted already disgusted me so much that I didn’t stop and continued to march forward. As I walked down the small path, a figure passed by and blocked my path.

‘What is it? Where are you going in such a hurry? Eric’s irritating voice reached my ears.

Just the sound of his voice was enough to infuriate me. ‘Get away!’ I spat impatiently without raising my head.

‘What if I don’t go?’

‘President Walker, didn’t you know that not even a dog would block the way of others?’ I shot back at him coolly.

‘Your tongue is getting sharper, you even dare to insult me ​​now. Looks like I need to teach you a lesson or you’ll only get worse,” he hissed through clenched teeth and dragged me into a side pavilion.

‘Eric Walker, what are you trying to do? Let me go!’ Cursing and kicking, one of my kicks landed on his calf. As he didn’t expect it and was unprotected, he screamed in pain.

‘Well done, Lillian Hawkins. Looks like we’re going to have to do this the hard way!’ he stated ruthlessly and carried me off.

Startled, I screamed and yelled, ‘Let me down, Eric Walker! You are exaggerating!

‘Be quiet if you don’t want me to push things further.’ He even had the nerve to threaten me now.

‘Let me down or I’ll scream for help!’ Anxious, I remembered that asshole Richard was still after me. If he had seen how Eric was treating me now, he would just despise me even more.
