His Real Wedded Bride novel Chapter 1276

Black had heard so much about Holley from his elders ever since he had been abroad. They said that this woman had outstanding and remarkable talent in the business area. They mentioned how much she contributed to Tarsan Corporation, and that if it weren't for her, Rachel's company would have gone bankrupt.

He looked around, sweeping his gaze throughout the crowd inside the booth. As soon as his eyes landed on Holley, his gaze stayed on her. Truth be told, he had been stealing her glances every now and then. In those times he did, he was able to observe that Holley was taking pictures of those men who were flirting and having fun with the hot girls in their arms.

Not long after, those people exited the booth, leaving Holley and Black alone.

Holley looked at her shots when she felt another presence in the booth. As a matter of fact for her as well, she had been observing Black discreetly, glancing only at him when he turned his eyes away. She concluded that he was the unpredictable kind of man. He was young and charming, yes, but Holley knew that outside appearances could be deceiving if not real. This time, however, she felt him staring at her.

Then again, it was her principle not to go near or associate herself with people beyond her control, and she never failed to follow it no matter how tempting it was to get to know him.

Before standing up from her seat and heading straight towards the exit, she turned to look at him. As soon as she caught his eyes, she flashed a subtle smile at the man.

As for Black, the smile caught him off guard, leaving him falling for that enchanting beam. His mind took him elsewhere, and when he finally came back to his senses not a moment longer, Holley was nowhere to be seen. Panicking, he jumped to his feet and hurried out of the booth, hoping that he would still be able to catch up to Holley.

Meanwhile, Holley hailed a taxi just right outside at the entrance of the hotel.

The vehicle stopped in front of her, and as she was about to get into it, a loud voice reached her ears, calling out her name.

"Miss Ye! Wait!"

Holley turned around and immediately caught sight of Black, running towards her.

Her eyes fell on the handsome Black and stuck like glue, making her heart race. Finally, Black reached her. He was standing tall in front of her, his shadow casting a long shade on the ground. As she stared at his well-structured face, her mind started to fly elsewhere.

Deep inside, Holley was convinced that Charles was the only one she loved. She never fooled around with other men unless she had to.

She knew that this rapid heartbeat wasn't because she fell for Black. All she wanted from him was to get his shares in Tarsan Corporation. Moreover, there was no doubt that this promising, rich man admiring her made her feel good inside, because it was something she didn't get from anyone else.

Rachel claimed that she was in love with Charles, but she never refused to have intimate relationships with other men, making Holley think that her boss did not truly love Charles. That was one of the reasons she despised Rachel, and she always had been. It even infuriated her, because her claim to love Charles felt like an insult to him.

As for Holley, she thought that she was different from Rachel, and she believed that no one could ever top her love for Charles. She was convinced that her love for him was pure to the point that she was unwilling to make love with other men. She promised herself that she would wait for the day that she was going to be good enough for him. When that time came, she would give herself to him wholeheartedly and would treat him right, letting him fall in love with her more and more.

Holley's train of thought was interrupted when she felt like Black had just spoken. She turned to him and asked, "What?"

Black looked at her and chuckled before repeating his words, "I asked where you were headed to. I can give you a ride." Under the bright lights of the hotel's exterior, Black gazed at Holley intently with deep affection evident in his eyes. With a face and eyes like that, no one could have the heart to turn down such an attractive man's offer.

"Oh…Well, I… I just felt…suffocated inside the booth, so I just left without thinking of any place to go. How about you?" As she spoke, she lowered her head shyly, not wanting to meet his eyes for hers might betray herself, which made her look slightly awkward.

Black's eyes widened a little as he caught the underlying meaning between her words. 'After all, she is a girl. Watching those men having fun with those women most probably made her uncomfortable, ' he speculated.

"Well, I don't want to stay there, either. Would you like to take a walk with me? The night is still quite young," he replied, taking a quick glance at the night sky filled with stars as he tried to hide the nervousness in his voice.

Since he was born with a silver spoon in his mouth, it was unavoidable meeting a lot of women who tried to throw themselves at him, most clearly just for convenience. Thus, it was so long before that he couldn't even remember the last time he felt serious about a woman and desired to be in a long-term relationship with her as he did for the time being. He wondered if it was perhaps when he was about sixteen years old.

Being with Holley made him wonder as well what was truly wrong with him or if these feelings were anyway. He could point out just by the look in her eyes that she was an ambitious woman, someone who would do anything to get what she wanted. Even then, he still could not help but fall in love with her at first sight to the point that there was that desire to have her burning inside him once more.
