âObviously I was afraid that you wouldnât be able to concentrate on work!â She had a stern look on her face. If he had not seen the guilt in her eyes, Neil might have actually believed her.
âIâve finished all my work for today, and Iâve been waiting for you to come back.â
Silvia was speechless.
Noticing her silence, he chuckled and whispered. âSilvia, a businessman doesnât go back on his word.â
She gritted her teeth and looked at him with annoyance. âWho told you I was going back on my word?!â
âSince youâre not, change into this.â
When he handed her a bag, Silvia finally realized that she had fallen into a trap.
âNeil, youâre doing this on purpose, arenât you?!â
She glared at him, but her ears turned red.
Neil nodded and admitted unapologetically, âYes. This is what you promised me.â
The two of them exchanged looks for a moment before Silvia snatched the bag out of his hand. âYouâll have to wait till tonight!â
âRemember to change into it before dinner.â
The only response he received was a door slammed in his face.
Neil left after he looked at the closed door and smirked.
Silvia only sighed in relief when she heard his footsteps getting further away.
She blushed as she looked down at the sexy spaghetti strap dress in her hand. She cursed herself for having a momentary lapse in judgment and agreeing to wear that dress during dinner.
There was no turning back now. If she did not wear it at night, she had no idea what else Neil would come up with.
However, the thought of wearing something so revealing filled her heart with shame.
Silvia hid in her room the entire day.
The housekeeper left after she finished cooking in the evening, and Neil finally went upstairs to knock on Silviaâs door. âItâs time for dinner.â
Silvia had been preparing herself mentally all afternoon. The moment she heard his voice, it felt like she had heard the Devilâs call. âGo ahead! Iâm coming down!â she shouted.
âAlright.â
Once Neil was gone, her gaze fell on the almost translucent lace dress. The whole dress was made up of sheer lace except for the important parts, which were covered with white fabric. She could already imagine how she would look in the dress.
Following a moment of hesitation, she finally changed into the spaghetti strap dress.
She walked into the bathroom and saw her reflection in the mirror. Her face turned red with shame. Even her body had a pink hue due to the embarrassment.
She would rather die than walk out of there looking like this.
She pulled out a shawl from the cupboard and put it on before she exited her bedroom.
The dress was incredibly short, and it barely reached the base of her thighs. If she took larger steps, her underwear would be exposed.
Silvia walked slowly, and just as she reached the stairway, Neil stepped out of the kitchen with two bowls.
The first things he saw were her fair, slender legs. His breathing instantly grew a little heavier.
He moved his gaze further up and frowned when he saw the shawl, which was tightly wrapped around her body.
âSil, I donât recall the shawl being part of our deal.â
Silvia was mortified as she gritted her teeth and said, âNeil, donât cross the line!â
He placed the bowls on the table and gradually approached her.
With every step he took, Silvia felt an increasing sense of danger.
âDonât you come any closer to me!â
