Chapter 61

Nell was at a loss for a moment before snapping back to reality.

She was in utter disbelief that she actually swayed to the man’s seduction and shared a kiss with him. They were in such a provocative and dangerous position too!

Crying out in alarm, she tried to get up.

However, the seat Gideon sat on was close to the desk.

By abruptly erecting, her waist bumped onto the corner of the desk. Nell shouted in pain before falling back.

Gideon’s face saw a change of emotion.

Catching her, he reached out to rub on the bruised spot.

“Why can’t you be careful? Is it hurting? Let me take a look.”

The man’s large hand snatched around her waist with only a thin layer of cloth in between. The scorching heat from his palm aroused tension in her body.

She pressed on his hands, which were eager to check on her wounds, and shook her head.

Although her misty eyes threatened tears from the pain, she gritted her teeth and insisted. “I’m okay, it’s not painful.”

A furrow formed between Gideon’s sharp brows.

Without a word, he sullenly lifted her and took strides to the bedroom.

Frightened, Nell put up a struggle but it was no use. She grabbed him by his clothes and blurted, “Gideon Leith, what are you doing? Put me down at once!”

There were many maids present at home and they were watching from downstairs too!

Turning a deaf ear, Gideon walked past the corridor under the maids’ widened eyes as he carried her to the bedroom.

Upon contact with the bed, Nell took a leap off.

Gideon let her be and instead, darted her a cold stare before turning to retrieve a tube of cream from a drawer.

“Take off your clothes!” He coldly said.

Nell clenched onto her clothes. With flushed cheeks and downcast eyes, she averted her gaze.

“I can do it myself.”

She extended her arm to take the cream in his hand.

At the sound of a scoff, he moved past her hand and pulled open her clothes.

“Ah! Gideon Leith, what are you trying to do?”

Nell shouted as the man bound her hands over her head, pinning her on the bed. Her tender legs were constrained by his knee.

The woman’s resistance swallowed into the pillow, leaving only vague whimpering.

With a stiffened face, Gideon examined the red marks from the accident on her fair skin.

In a span of two minutes, the wound was showing signs of bruising.

Keeping a straight face on, he twisted open the cap and squeezed some cream on his hand before pressing it on her wound.

“Sob... Ouch...”

Nell indistinctly screamed.

Gideon unleashed his sharp tongue. “For a person who’s afraid of pain, you sure act thoughtlessly! How old are you? Didn’t you see the desk that was in the way?

Nell felt wronged.

He was the one who took advantage and kissed her, yet she was injured and being nagged at!

Following her refusal to speak, Gideon continued, “Cat got your tongue?”

Panting with rage, Nell turned and yelled at him, “I don’t want to talk to you!”

Her red face and teary eyes reminded him of a fiery cub whose fangs were pulled off.

Gideon could not hold back his laughter.

His coarse fingers grazed her wounds.

His breathing turned heavy.

Nell caught the drift. The flirtatious and dangerous sensation pulsing through the man’s fingertips threw her in a sea of emotions.

She quickly remarked, “Are you done? Let go of me if you’re done.”

This time, Gideon did not persist.

By any means, he knew what was to come if he leaned closer.

After the man stood up, Nell got on her feet and straightened out her clothes.

Gideon turned and went to the washroom.

It was long before he came out.

Having an idea of what he went to do, Nells’ face washed in a darker shade of red.

She had a feeling that the longer time spent with this man, certain areas of their relationship would come at risk.

However, it reflected the man’s gentility from another aspect.

He indeed kept true to her conditions made prior to the marriage.

Without her permission, he was not to take her.

Nell could not help but curl the sides of the lips.

Gideon proceeded to pour two glasses of water. Upon his return, Gideon looked intently at her.

“I can allow Xinghui to join under Anning International but I have a condition.”

“What“s the condition?”

“You are to join Anning International as Chief of Public Relations.”

Nell was taken aback.

It never crossed her mind that he would make such a request.

Gideon explained, “Anning International may have a rapid growth but it has its flaws. Although we have an advantage in resources, the meteoric development raised questions in our talent department, especially in public relations. I hope that you can come over and help me establish a powerful PR team.”

Nell was stunned.

She had already noticed the weakness in Anning International’s public relations department while on Simon’s case.

Otherwise, the uncomplicated case would not have been dragged on two weeks.

In the end, it was settled with her assistance.

However, knowing was one thing but hearing it from Gideon was another thing.

Nell was actually quite reluctant.

One, she had to sort out Xinghui. Her hands might be tied if she were to take over Anning International.

Two, she would be working directly under Gideon if she were to take the Chief of Public Relations position in Anning International.

For personal and other reasons, Nell was not willing to be Gideon’s subordinate.

Just as she hesitated, Gideon added, “You’ll have priority to choose any resources from Anning International as long as you say yes.”

Nell’s eyes lit up.

“Really?”

“Of course.”

“Okay! It’s a deal!”

The difference between the sharing of resources as a subsidiary company and priority in resources was a stark gap.

One was picking scraps from other’s leftovers while the other got the freedom to choose from a pot of freshly-made stew.

It was basically upgrading Xinghui to a VIP!

Chapter 487 The End Pt. 5 Nell was radiating with joy.

She would take it even if the cost was working in the same company as this man.

Infected by her elation, Gideon arched his lips.

“Are you selling yourself just like that? Are you sure you’re not gonna give it another thought?”

Nell blinked her eyes.

The pair of bright eyes pinned on his. “Oh, you’re going to take advantage of me?”

“...”

This girl had taken a course in making a comeback!

Having had her way, Nell grinned from ear to ear. She took two steps back and waved at him.

“President Leith, so it’s decided then. I’ll demand a contract from you tomorrow. Don’t bother going back on your word. I’ll be taking a shower now.”

She sprinted into the washroom with her clothes.

Watching as she made a run for it, Gideon broke into chuckles.
