Chapter 362
“Besides, if it weren’t for you, I would’ve lost my closest family. I don’t even know how to repay you now!” Sheila pursed her lips, smiled, and rushed forward all of a sudden to try and sneak a kiss on Severin.
Severin was unprepared for her bold actions the last time around, but he had learned his lesson since then and was on the alert for any sneaky tricks she might try to pull again. As soon as he saw her move, he immediately dodged several meters to the right to evade Sheila’s sudden kiss.
She pouted angrily in response and said, “Why are you hiding so far away? You make it seem like I’m going to eat you up!”
Severin patted his chest and could not help but say, “Now that you mention it, I am scared of that. Luckily, I was fast enough to dodge you, otherwise, you would’ve attacked me already!” “Hmph, don’t you like being kissed by me?” Sheila could not help but roll her eyes at Severin. ” Is there something wrong with me? Am I ugly? Are my thighs not sexy enough? Or are my breasts not big enough? Why do you have to hide from me? Besides, you wouldn’t lose out if you marry me as your second wife.”
Sheila was evidently somewhat angry, since she has always kept up appearances as an upper- class woman and frequently ignored the pursuits of other men. Yet she took the initiative to set aside whatever attitude she used to have and actively lowered herself to try and woo Severin, only to be rebuffed and avoided by him. It made her feel as if no one wanted her, or that she was ugly.
“You look amazing, but I have no plans to do that. You’re also much younger than me too, almost like a little kid!” Severin cleared his throat awkwardly and said, “We’re good friends, and it’d be nice if we could stay that way!”
“No!” Sheila refused outright. “We might be good friends now, but we will be boyfriend and girlfriend in the future, and take it another step further! You know what I mean, don’t you? The point is, don’t even try to abandon me!”
Severin was speechless at how persistent she was. He did not know what to say, so he decided. to just walk until he reached the car before saying to Sheila, “I’ll head home for now, Sheila. Give me a ring if there’s anything you need. You have my number anyway!”
“Okay!” Sheila nodded. She knew in her heart that Severin’s main reason for not accepting her was because he already had a wife. His reluctance to take her as a second wife was even further evidence that he was a good man who did not play with women’s hearts, and that made her like him even more.
If
any other man were in his shoes, they would never have avoided her advances earlier and might even suggest that they go to a hotel right away!
