CEO’s Surrender With You I Can Never Win novel Chapter 1

Chapter 1

“Bryan Turner, will you marry me?”

This woman’s announcement sounded extremely loud and unexpected in this luxurious private room.

To be fair, women threw themselves at the tall and devilishly handsome man relaxing on the sofa all the time.

Yet this woman was probably the first to boldly announce her intent so brazenly.

And the ugliest one out of all.

Hard for anyone to ignore the noticeable birthmark that had extended from her cheek to the tips of her brows.

Bryan sat languidly on the sofa with an air of nonchalance. But his sharp eyes sized up the woman coldly, just like a panther sizing up its prey. Other than that, he gave no indication that he heard her gutsy declaration.

Just when everyone thought that the insane woman would be thrown out of the private lounge, the corner of the man’s lips curved upwards.

Audible gasps were quickly smothered.

The devil smiled?

The confused patrons took another glance at the woman standing before them.

No matter how they looked at her, she was remarkably unappealing! Especially her dark yet sallow complexion and a large birthmark on her cheek.

Since he was facing the woman and had his back to his boss, Harry Miller, Bryan’s assistant, missed that miracle.

He was busy trying to drive the loopy woman out the door.

“How did you get in here you crazy woman? Get lost!”

Harry had seen many women try all sorts of ways to seduce his boss but it was his first time seeing one attempt to do so while wearing a dirty t-shirt and jeans.

Harry rolled up his sleeves and was prepared to drag the woman out of the room when a cold, aloof voice stopped him in his tracks.

“Stop.”

Bryan had been studying the strange woman from the moment she broke into Gin Bar. She had somehow successfully paralyzed their entire building’s security system within mere moments and then managed to escape from the encirclement of highly-trained security guards that were sent to capture her.

Despite his outward indifference, Bryan was intrigued.

All that just to propose marriage to him?

The shocked spectators started to whisper among themselves.

“Someone pinch me, is Mr. Turner actually interested in that crazy woman?”

Their astonishment was understandable since Bryan was not only handsome but also rich and powerful.

Looking back and forth between the two, nobody could wrap their heads around the possibility of such a pairing.

Harry froze in his tracks.

“Sir?”

Did he make a mistake in his boss’s orders?

Perhaps the boss said to stop her…

Bryan’s next words drove all doubt out of his head.

“Leave us.”

Harry’s jaw dropped open as he finally understood that he, and not the crazy woman, was the one being kicked out.

“Sir, this—“

Bryan leveled an even stare at Harry, “Hm?”

The perturbed assistant swallowed whatever he was going to say.

“Please excuse us,” Harry said and quickly ushered everyone out the door, considerately closing the door behind him and standing guard right outside.

He was ready to rush back in and throw the wild woman out.
