Chapter 481 What Can I Do? I Like You a Lot
“Despicable!” Elise scolded.
At once, Kenneth was frozen for a few moments before he turned back to face her.
“Miss Sinclair, I just helped you out, and now you’re throwing me under the bus. Isn’t that unethical?” he said with a troubled look.
“I didn’t ask you to.” Her facial expression was dark.
It was the truth. She would have dealt with the man herself, but Kenneth insisted on butting in.
After a faint pause, she threw the handkerchief that she was holding onto Kenneth. “Take your dirty handkerchief away! If you dare touch me again, I will take your life!”
“Well, that’s feisty of you. But what can I do? I like you a lot when you act like this,” as he said that, he had a smug expression on while he leaned closer to her.
Immediately, she moved her foot from the face of the man on the floor before aiming for Kenneth’s lower body.
Before the damaging kick had the chance to land, he grabbed hold of her leg with both his hands.
“Haha…” With a chuckle, he said with his brow raised, “Miss Sinclair, if you had really landed that kick, you will regret it for the next half of your life.”
“Really…” After squinting her eyes, she made a jump from the support provided by his hand that was holding onto her legs before making a turn mid-air, landing a kick on his shoulder.
At once, he loosened his grip before staggering two steps back. Holding onto the spot where he got kicked, he said in disbelief, “For real?”
“Of course.” Elise regained her composure before she said threateningly, “Keep your dirty thoughts to yourself. Next time, you won’t have the chance to avoid it.”
After saying what she wanted to say, she left without looking back.
Seeing that, Kenneth was left there, unsure whether to laugh or weep.
As he had a very ferocious fiancee, what could he do?
He was the one who picked her, so he had to love her even through the pain!
It had been over an hour since she got back to her room when she heard the door of the room opposite being opened.
She had the thought of sending a text to confirm whether it was Alexander, but she figured that it was faster to open the door and check it herself as she didn’t want to wait any longer.
Just as the door opened, she was met with the closure of the door of his room.
At that moment, she managed to catch a glimpse of his face, but it wasn’t likewise.
Though it was just a little peek, she could see his fatigue, so she didn’t call after him.
Returning back to the room, she picked up her phone to send him some messages.
‘Since you’ve worked so hard for my betrothal gifts, I will excuse you from greeting me tonight. Hehe.’
‘Good work today. Rest early after taking a hot shower.’
‘Goodnight.’
After sending the texts, she went to sleep in peace.
No matter how many unpredicted things happened in the day, she’d feel safe as long as Alexander was by her side.
That was why when both of them opened their doors at the same time the next morning, she couldn’t suppress her urge to hug him as she missed him.
“Do you know? If you don’t come back earlier again, I may get snatched away by someone.” Her tone was soft and it was obvious that she had just woken up not long ago.
As he took in her familiar scent, he quickly sobered up. Without thinking twice, he put his arm around her thin waist before asking, “So, were you seduced by the person who wanted to snatch you away?”
“Of course not.” She said in a playful tone, “But I almost made him lose his ability to reproduce.”
As she said that, she couldn’t stifle her laugh.
Hearing that, he frowned, not knowing whether it was good or bad news.
She didn’t feel anything for him, showing that she didn’t have a liking for him.
