âMr Larios, can you please stop messing with me like this! Belinda was pissed. Chase always played tricks during their conversations.
The smile on Chaseâs face faded, and he looked at her seriously. Tm not joking. Iâm serious.â
Belindaâs heart started to pound louder. She didnât believe what Chase was saying, feeling like she was being toyed with. She made her position clear. âEven if you are serious, itâs too late now I already have a boyfriendâ
Chase handed her a phone. âItâs easy, just make a call and break up with Jacob.â
Belinda was stunned, she stood up angrily. âMr. Larios, is this your attitude towards relationships? Can you break up just like that? You may not respect my boyfriend, but I will! Heâs good to me, I wonât break up with him!â
Chase smiled. âDo you really like him?â
Belindaâs eyes flickered for a moment. âIs that even a question? If I didnât like him, why would I be with him?â
Chase chuckled. âNo, you donât really like him.â
Belinda frowned. âDonât make decisions for me. If I donât like my boyfriend, who else can I like?â
Chase stood up and walked closer to her. âActually, you like me.â
Belindaâs eyes trembled, and she looked nervously towards the window. ââ¦I⦠do like you! But whatâs the point? You donât like me, so am I supposed to waste my life on you? I have someone who is seriously pursuing me now. Is it wrong for me to want to develop feelings with him?â
âNo!â Chase backed her against the closet.
Chaseâs arms surrounded Belinda, and she could only look at him, asking angrily, âWhy not? How dare you control me? Iâm no longer an employee of your company!
Chase lowered his head. âBecause I found out that I really like you! We both like each other, so why do you need to develop feelings for someone else?â
Belinda was stunned.
Did she hear it wrong? Chase said he liked her?
Was he confessing to her?
Ne, come on! Wake up!
He was such a player! He was nice to everyone, almost every woman liked him.
After thinking about this, Belinda showed a resistant attitude again. âMr. Larios, your likes are too promiscuous; I canât bear it!â
Chase chuckled. He squinted his eyes as his eyelashes slightly trembled. His voice was gentle and charming. âIâve never told any other woman that I liked her. This, is the first time Iâve confessed so seriously. Are you sure you want to reject me?â
Who would believe him?!
He always brought different women into his office, stayed in there for a long time, and when they came out, their clothes and hair were all a mess.
Now, he was here, pretending to be innocent?!
Belinda kept herself extremely sober. âMr. Larios, are you reigniting your desire to conquer because Iâm with someone else? Do you want to test whether your charm still works on me? If so, please spare me!
I really canât play love games with you!â
Chase also knew his past behavior was too reckless. He lowered his head and buried his face in her shoulder, pretending to be weak and helpless. âIâm really seriousâ¦.â
Belindaâs heart skipped a beat.
What was this strategy?
Even though she was clear-headed, which girl could resist when the man she liked showed such weakness in front of her?
She was really at her limit.
âMr. Lariosâ¦â
âDonât reject me yet. Let me finish.â Chaseâs voice was a bit husky. His hands were propped against the closet, not letting Belinda leave, but not touching her.
He buried his face in her shoulder because he felt ashamed. The shameful things he had done in the past made him feel inferior in front of her.
