For a long time he had remained on his back, and his breathing sounded regular. Had he fallen asleep?
She turned around to face him and saw that he was looking at her with an extremely complicated expression on his face. His dark pupils were strangely clear in the midst of darkness.
âMr. White...â It was apparent to anyone how guilty that voice sounded, but he pretended no to notice that.
âYes.â He was still staring at her.
âJust sleep.â She told him lightly.
Then, she turned around with her back facing him again. However, he stopped her this time. He sighed quietly as he hugged her, âAlright, letâs sleep!â
He thought that perhaps she was really tired. Although he really wanted it now, but he should respect a woman too!
âI just want to sleep with you in my arms. Can I do that?â His low voice burrowed into Leilaâs ears.
The nervous, gentle and uncertain air created a huge hole in the wall which Leila had just created. She reached out her arms and wrapped it around his waist while snugging her face against his chest. She thought that maybe she could ask Julian tomorrow for the reason someone as masculine as Vincent ended up as a homosexual guy.
They remained tightly hugged together for a long time.
Soon, sleep came to them and it would be dawn soon...
Vincent had gone to work early in the morning, and last night Miyamoto had called to inform him that Owen and him had settled in a hotel. They were going to have fun out there today.
Leila descended the mountain too after Vincent had left.
After setting up an appointment with Julian, Julian sounded pleasantly surprised. When the two of them sat in the café, Julian simply smiled with a distant and nostalgic look in his eyes. âLeila, I know you will look for me!â
âYou know that?â Leila raised her brows.
âVincent has come to me earlier!â Julian smiled.
Leila couldnât find any words for him at the moment.
âThe one who has kidnapped you was indeed me!â Julian admitted. âYou are really smart. I never expected you to discover the truth! That button is limited-edition, and there is no way I can get away with it. Haha... but now I feel really relieved! Do you want to know why I have kidnapped you?â
âI know that!â Leila replied.
âYou know that?â Julian was startled this time.
Leila nodded seriously while she produced a photo from her bag. She placed it in front of him, âIs it because of this?â
Julian was still in a daze, âWhy do you have this photograph?â
âNever mind about how I got it, I want to know what is going on!â Leila stared straight into his eyes.
Julian laughed as he asked another question of his own, âYou donâ believe in Vincent?â
Leila felt a shock going through her when she heard this question. He was right. Did she believe in Mr. White? Was she able to fully believe in him?
Julian smiled as he watched her dazzled expression, âThis is just a photo born of a bet after one of our beer sessions. That time, the members of the student council drank together, and the loser had to kiss a guy. Vincent happened to lose that time! Everyone teased him saying that he would never do that, but that pushed him to do that in the end!â
So that was what happened!
Leila suddenly felt her heart getting lighter!
After bidding goodbye to Julian, Leila left alone. As she walked on the streets, she revealed a smile born out of relief. It turned out that that was just a misunderstanding. She was spooked! That episode also served as a test for her relationship with Vincent.
After getting off the bus, she headed towards the villa. On her way back to the villa, a black car was stopped in the middle of the mountain roads. Two men emerged from the car and they were looking at Leila with a lecherous expression.
âWhat are you doing?â Leila exclaimed.
âWe obviously want to get a taste of you!â One of the men said with a perverted face.
Leila opened her eyes as she felt a throbbing in her head. A devilish face appeared in front of her eyes.
Leila suddenly felt her heart sink. It was Charles!
At the moment, he was lazing by the bed and staring at her. He was dressed in a black casual wear which revealed his chest and its chiseled muscles. His dark pupils were half-concealing his inquisitive glance.
âFinally awake?â Charles bent towards Leila with an ambiguous smile on his lips.
Leila gaped at him with a startled expression as she struggled to sit up. In an instant, an overwhelming sense of dizziness swept over her which caused her to collapse onto the bed. âYouâWhere am I now?â
âA condo unit I have just rented!â An evil smile appeared at Charlesâs lips, and there was a dangerous look in his eyes.
âWhy am I here?â Leila recalled the scenes before she fainted, and she couldnât help exclaimed, âDid you kidnap me?â
Charles twitched his mouth arrogantly, âMiss, you think that Iâve kidnapped you? Do you think that youâre an angel? Me, kidnapping you? What do you think I am aiming for, your wealth or your beauty? It makes sense to say that Iâm gunning for your appearances, but what about money? Do you even have that?â
âItâs not you?â Leila frowned. She tried hard to recall the scene before she totally lost consciousness.
She was scared by those two men, so she had fled on the spot. Those two wanted to chase after her while she ran towards the direction of the bus.
And because it was noon at that time, there were hardly any cars on the road, and a careening car was heading towards her while she was on the road but she didnât notice it. The car tried to screech to a halt, and she came into contact with the car for a moment. Although the impact was hardly anything worth mentioning, she fainted anyway due to her immense fear.
That was where her memories trailed off! Was Charles the one in that black car?
Charles let out a disdainful snort, âYou were almost kidnapped by someone. Vincent has reminded you not to loiter around, yet you donât listen to him.
You deserve to get raped and murdered afterwards!â
âAre you out of your mind?â Leila was stunned for a second before an impatience crept into her face. She then got off the bed.
Just as she was about to put some distance between him and her, his huge palm suddenly swooped down and cupped her waist. With just a pull, her whole body lurched towards the bed once again. She was now pinned underneath the weight of his body.
âLet me go...â Leila screamed out while struggling in shock.
âDonât move!â Charles fixed her waist in place as he secured her hands above her head in order to limit her movements.
âLâLet go of me...â Leila frowned as she almost couldnât catch her breath due to his weight. She could only fight back with her legs as she attempted to kick him away.
âDamn you, didnât I tell you not to move?â Charles howled in a hoarse voice, and there was a trace of lust burning in his eyes. If it were not for her reduced state at the moment, he would have long gobbled her up. âWoman, I have saved you. Shouldnât you repay my kindness with your body?â
âLet me go... Ugh...â Leila was nervously trying to push him away, but she was suddenly assaulted by his kiss, and in the meantime she couldnât even react. She could only widen her eyes in shock.
He was kissing her madly and violently as if he was trying to savor all parts of her lovely and delicious body. He sucked on her lips aggressively to take in the sweet taste, and his lips were entwined with hers ceaselessly, like sucking on honey which he couldnât get enough of.
Leila didnât dare to catch her breath while a hard glint shone in her disgusted eyes. She was afraid that she would inhale his breath, a strangerâs breath, which she hated the most. She would rather suffocate to death due to his endless onslaught of kissing than to go along with his movements.
âYou fool, breathe!â Charles finally let go of her, and his handsome face now bore a pair of blood-seeking eyes. Her tender lips somehow had the scent of sweets, which easily aroused him.
Leila heaved heavily as she raised up her right hand, seemingly wanting to give him a slap. âYou... bastard!â
However, her hand was easily grasped by Charles and she was pulled in. His devilish face approached her with a mocking smile, âI am getting more and more turned on by you. I only want you!â
Leila was suppressing her anger as she glared at him impatiently, âYou bastard, I am Vincentâs wife, and you are his friend. How can you do this to your friendâs wife?â
Charles enclosed Leilaâs struggling figure into his embrace, and his steamy huge hands were caressing her pale and soft face. There was a strange heat in his eyes, âWhat about that? Macey used to be his girlfriend, but that didnât stop me from sleeping with her. Do you think that you...â
âGet lost!â Before Charles could finish, Leila abruptly cut him off, âIf you dare to touch me again, I will make sure to kill you!â
âKill me? Do you have what it takes to do that?â Charles narrowed his eyes as he blatantly traced her skin and put his hand into her undergarments.
Leila couldnât stop her body from trembling as her eyes took on an angry expression. She didnât stop struggling, âRemove your dirty hands, you disgusting, and vile person!â
âVile person?â There was a flash in Charlesâs eyes as the sarcastic smile became even more apparent on his face, âYouâre right. I am indeed a vile person. But what if I tell you that Vincent is the one who has asked me to do this? He wants to test your loyalty towards him!â
âImpossible!â Leila shook her head violently, âHe would never do that!â
Charlesâs suspicious glance swept over her indifferent face. He asked with doubt, âHow can you be so confident towards Vincent? Have you forgotten? Macey used to be his girlfriend, and he even allowed me to sleep with her. Why do you think you are different?â
âStop messing with our relationship!â Leila said with conviction, âI have full trust in Mr. White!â
âYou foolish girl! Do you really think that he cares about you that much?â Charles let go of her as he got up with a faint smile playing over his lips, âListen to this!â
After saying that, he switched on a recording pen, and out came Vincentâs low brassy voice, âI really want to know what kind of person she is too!â
âAre you sure you want to test her? Arenât you afraid that I will really sleep with her?â This was Charlesâs voice.
âIf that happens, she doesnât deserve to be with me!â Vincent replied.
Leila was stunned. What did this conversation mean?
Charles switched off the device and looked at Leila with a smirk, âYou foolish girl, do you still believe in your Mr. White? He allows me to get close to you!â
âIs that so?â Leila laughed lightly, âAre you trying to get me to believe you with just this conversation? Are you telling me that Mr. White is the one who has asked you to approach me?â
âThat is indeed the truth!â
âIâm sorry, but I will never believe in you! Iâm sorry, I believe in Vincent!â Leila stood up, âCharles, let me go. I will pretend that nothing has happened today. I canât decipher the meaning behind your actions, and I am not interested in the reasons too. Can I go now?â
Leila was indeed shocked when she heard that conversation, but she knew that it could very well be forged. Charles had his own purposes in the first place, so he was someone she wouldnât trust! This was like that photo containing Vincent and Julian. She didnât want her mind to wander anymore.
Trust was paramount in a marriage.
âYou donât believe me?â Charles raised his brows as he contemplated the weight of her words. However, what he felt more was a sense of defeat, because he still couldnât comprehend this strange woman who wouldnât believe and entertain him, and he was a guy with so much charisma.
