Elizabeth turned to glare at him. Robert raised his hand again before she said something more humiliating. Totally pinned on his laps without a chance to escape, Elizabeth had to shut her eyes tightly in fear. How much she looked like a scared kitten emitting a coquettish aura! Robert couldn’t help but smile, finding himself attracted by this pitiful girl.
How come nothing happened? Elizabeth opened her eyes in confusion. Suddenly, Robert, with an evil smile, pinched her hips. Elizabeth grimaced in pain while he laughed more and more wildly.
"Your mother entrusted me with you when she was badly ill. Though not a sage, I will never break my words."
Elizabeth elbowed him while shouting, "I know you have been coveting me! How foolish my mum is to entrust me to you!"
Robert removed his hands smilingly, his tone meaningful enough. "You don’t have a say in our relationship. Behave yourself and I will naturally treat you well and even regard you as my daughter. If you insisted on going against me..."
Elizabeth retorted coldly regardless of his threat, "Who wants to be your daughter? Do you really think you’re my father?"
Though slightly unhappy, Robert happened to sense a tinge of romance in her words.
He produced a smile that made his face more handsome.
"Though not your biological father, I can make you call me dad in bed with my excellent sexual skills."
Elizabeth, badly blushing, gnawed at his lab furiously with great force. She applied so much strength that her teeth even began aching, only to find that Robert, instead of being angry, worked a meaningful smile onto his handsome face. Elizabeth struggled to sit up.
Robert reached out to stroke her chin while saying word by word, "It turned out that you aren’t afraid of me at all. There is no way for you to do that to Marvin, right? Marvin won’t love a girl truly. Even if he would, you would never win his heart. Why not date me then? Is it so hard to leave him?"
Elizabeth tried hard to avoid his sharp gaze as if he could see through her at a glance. She whispered under her breath, trying not to meet his eyes, "You know nothing about what happened between us."
Robert did not retort but lifted her cuff with his fingers.
There was a vague red mark on her wrist, solid proof of how Marvin abused her by binding her hands with his tie.
Elizabeth withdrew her hand, her face crimson.
Robert said word for word, "How come you don’t escape even if being harshly tortured? Do you love him that much?"
With her innermost secret being revealed, Elizabeth turned to look outside the window with embarrassment in silence.
