Leila’s heart throbbed vigorously, and the corner of her eyes were slightly wet. She bit her lips and looked at him unsatisfactorily.
He was suppressing his emotions, but he just frowned and stared at her intensely.
They were standing too close together that they could feel the warm breaths exhaled on each other’s faces.
No one compromised in the end.
But suddenly, Vincent lowered his head and kissed her violently again. He changed the topic, “Make a choice between the Mabel family and me. Who would you choose?”
“Why are you forcing like this?” She widened her eyes, “I don’t want to choose. I’m not choosing anyone!”
Vincent held her hand and embraced her tightly. He suddenly whispered in her ear, “Good girl, I’ll make you choose me. You can only choose me!”
Leila was stunned. Vincent gently held her in his arms as his warm breath exhaled on her ears. He murmured with a gentle tone, “You have no choice! I won’t touch you yet, at least not now!”
Leila’s pale face regained some colour, but she did not respond. She just stood still over there. He let go of his hands, “You’re not allowed to see any man late at night from now on. You can’t date them, let alone watch movies with another man.”
Leila was dumbfounded, “I didn’t watch movies with a man!”
“You can’t do that three years ago either!”
“But you were still my sister’s boyfriend three years ago!”
“I’m your man now!” He casually said with his especially bright eyes.
“You’re still the man of another woman, not mine!” She wanted him to be only hers, but he would never belong to her. She didn’t like this kind of unfair treatment.
He raised his eyebrow and the corner of his lips suddenly tipped into a smile, “Are you jealous?”
“Who’s jealous?” She immediately denied.
He sat up and pulled her up as well. Then, he took his clothes at the side and covered it on her.
Leila lowered her head and said nothing. He walked towards the coffee table by the couch and picked up a cigarette to smoke. The smell of tobacco drifted towards her, “I’ve already sent the computer to your dormitory!”
“What?” She immediately stood up in dismay, “When?”
“After you’ve called me.” He turned around.
“Then why did you call me here?”
“Because I haven’t had any woman here for more than a week!” He said.
“...” Did she hear it wrong? She thought about it for a while and felt unexpected.
“I want you, but you don’t want me! I don’t want to be a rapist!” Leila listened to him teasing her, “Are you afraid of me? Was that night really too terrible for you?”
She pursed her lips and didn’t say anything.
That night wasn’t just terrible, in fact it was awfully terrible. The pain she felt was unbearable. It wasn’t sex, it was death!
“Go change your clothes. I’ll take you out for dinner!”
“Change my clothes?” Her small hand subconsciously grasped his suit as she looked at the torn T-shirt on the ground, “I don’t have any clothes!”
He had torn all her clothes. Where could she change it?
He turned around, “Go look in the closet over there!”
She was stunned for a moment before walking towards the closet. She felt reluctant, but she still stood up and walked over. When she opened the closet, she was startled to see the clothes in the closet. There were at least ten dresses hanging in it, and each of them seemed extremely expensive.
“This, what is this about?”
Vincent walked over, “My woman would never be lack of clothes!”
Vincent’s words sounded behind her. His voice was hoarse, but certain.
Leila was stunned and almost fled away. She didn’t know how to face him!
“Go change!” He said again.
She casually took one of the dresses and ran into the bathroom. Her heart was pounding wildly, as if it was going to jump out of her chest.
“Ahh... this is insane!” Leila shook her head and spoke to herself.
‘Oh god! This was really insane! Who could stand it if he was gentle to me now and treated me violently the next second?
Vincent, what on earth did you want to not torture me?’
Leila was lost in mind for a moment. It was as unrealistic as stepping on the clouds.
In the mirror, she saw her red and swollen lips. It hurt so much! Her eyes were lost and her cheeks flustered, as if she had experienced a passionate moment. He was angry. She knew Theodore was the reason behind his anger, and the Mabel family too. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have asked her that today.
Deciding between these two options, she couldn’t choose!
But just now, she could clearly feel the loneliness, insanity and a trace of panic from him. Was there even a thing in this world that he couldn’t control?
After changing her clothes, she looked at herself in the mirror and organized her hair. Then, she walked out rigidly and held his suit in her hand.
Vincent turned around and saw her coming out from the bathroom. The elegant long dress closely fitted her body, making her body even more beautiful. Her long hair was a little messy, and it was sticking on her red cheeks. Her big and bright eyes rigidly looked at him.
“Come here!” He put an alluring smile on his face and said in a low voice.
She walked towards him and handed over his suit to him first. The suit was blocking between them, while he put his hands around her shoulder and brought her into his arms, “So beautiful!”

the writing is quite childish, but maybe it's just the translations...
