Task NO.1 How to Pursue Miss CEO novel Chapter 152

“I don’t care. You’re not allowed to do that.” Averting her gaze, Selena knew her resistance was almost futile. With Pierre’s status and personality, she wasn’t in a position to oppose anyway, as she could only obey his wishes. However, she was determined to go against him.

Never perceiving their relationship as a proper one, she assumed that it was a transaction of sorts that would allow them to each obtain what they desired. It wasn’t until they started the relationship that she realized she in fact had hopes for it going somewhere.

“I don’t think it’s appropriate for you to do this on our first date. Being in a relationship means that we’ll have to love each other before we have sex.” Hearing her own words, she was aware how ridiculous she sounded by trying to imbue the concept of love to a man who only knew about transactions, as she deemed him incapable of love.

Meanwhile, he was staring at her calm expression. Due to how close he was to her, he could hear her heart pounding. He also noticed she was shivering out of fear. She’s afraid? But why? Is she afraid that I might hurt her?

Despite noticing that Pierre didn’t utter a single word, she dared not turn to look at him. She figured that her protests fell on deaf ears, as he already exercised an incredible amount of patience on her as things stood. “I can’t deny you if you insist. We’re merely engaged in a transaction anyway.”

“Focus on the movie!” Without warning, he reverted into a gentleman, surprising Selena. Turning to check on him, she saw his face illuminated by the flickering lights from the screen, which made him look even more morose. Averting her gaze, she tidied her disheveled clothes.
