“I’m kissing my girlfriend.” James quickly slid into his role. “This is not a crime, is it?”
Sophia feigned shyness as she said, “We’re not kissing here! Wait until we’re home!”
He grinned. “All right, all right. I’ll listen to you for now. I’ve prepared a candlelight dinner for tonight, so we can enjoy a romantic night later.”
She could only blush coquettishly at his words. Even though she wouldn’t even dare look at Arthur’s face, she could feel his eyes glued on her.
Arthur saw everything when James went straight for Sophia’s lingerie in the closet and kept them in the suitcase.
At last, Sophia zipped her suitcase and lifted it from the ground. She passed her luggage to James, who naturally took it from her.
Then, she walked toward Arthur, who was waiting at the door and mustered the courage to look into his eyes which seemed to have a deep meaning beneath. “Mr. Weiss, I’ve decided to live with my boyfriend. Thank you for your hospitality.”
Arthur grabbed her wrist without giving her the opportunity to resist. “Come with me for a sec.”
“Hey! Mr. Weiss! Let go of me!” However, he didn’t spare her any time to struggle out of his grip as he led her toward his study room.
“You! Let go of my girlfriend!” James shouted from behind, but Sophia was already being pulled into the study room by Arthur and the door shut with a loud thud.
Sophia could only feel Arthur being oppressive before he pinned her against the door. His fresh scent enveloped her as he leaned forward to question her with a cold tone. “You dare to flirt with me when you’re already dating someone?”
Raising her head, she saw his stony face and ice-cold eyes.
She insisted, “I’m sorry, b-but I never flirted with you.”
“Never? You didn’t stop me when I kissed you in the hotel that day. Can’t you remember?” If that was the case, Arthur would help Sophia to recall that day’s events.
Her cheeks flushed as she nudged him. “Don’t do this. My boyfriend’s not far away.”
