Chapter 145 Be My Instructor
Evelyn was a little surprised. “How did you know that?”
She was quick-witted, but as soon as she said it, she regretted it. If she said that, wouldn’t it prove that Huston was right?
“I told you to keep a distance from Charlic. Do you believe
me now?” The man’s cold gaze swept over her like an elder reprimanding a child who had done something wrong. He stared at her seriously.
Men understood men the best. Charlie’s performance was enough to show that he had a good impression of Evelyn.
Knowing that she would not be able to hide it sooner or later, she rubbed her nose resentfully and muttered in a low voice, “Who would have thought…”
She had never had any improper thoughts about Charlie, so his confession was very unexpected to her.
“Tsk!” Seeing that she was talking back to him, Huston raised his hand as if he was going to hit her on the head.
She was so scared that she shrank her neck and hid aside. She hurriedly said, “A gentleman uses his tongue but not his fists!”
“A gentleman?” Hearing those two words, Huston laughed coldly. “In your eyes, am I not an old hooligan with a bad
temper? How did I become a gentleman now?”
Seeing that she didn’t speak, he retracted his hand and stroke her head. “You’re a wise woman who is able to stoop or stand erect.”
She smiled awkwardly and muttered discontentedly, “Why can’t you forgive me when I admit defeated…”
Huston’s eyes narrowed and his voice sounded like he was gnashing his teeth. “Say that again!”
Evelyn was smart. She knew she could just complain, and she would never dare to mess around when Huston was angry. When she saw that he was about to get angry, she immediately restrained herself and said, “Oh, just tell me if you want to be my instructor or not.”
Huston glanced at her and asked, “Do you want to be my disciple?”
Disciple?
It seemed that he could say that.
Evelyn said, “Well, it’s almost the same.”
The corners of the man’s mouth twitched. So many people were eager to learn from him, but she seemed to be compromised.
Huston leaned back slightly and placed his hands on the bed behind him. His posture was lazy and sexy. His sharp black eyes
tionally. He said, “It’s not
impossible. It depends on your performance.”
She didn’t expect him to be so pretentious. She moved her butt away from him and said, “Forget it if you don’t like it.”
Huston nodded thoughtfully and said, “Sure. Anyway, whether your work goes well in the future depends on your performance
now.”
“Are you threatening me?” said Evelyn.
Huston said, “I’m teaching you the ways of the world.”
“…You’re so high-sounding. Are you using your position for personal gain and trying to impose hidden rules?” As she spoke, she folded her arms tightly across her chest. “You’re using your power to target a newcomer like me!”
Huston was amused by her expression. His thin lips curled into a smile as he looked at her calmly. His voice was low as he said, “Even if I want to impose any hidden rule upon you, I would have done so long ago. What do you think? Are you satisfied?”
