Noah lit another cigarette and smoked it leisurely. Kim sat in the passenger’s seat and spoke, the sarcasm in her tone was unmistakable. “You’re just awesome, Mr. Noah! It merely took you a few moments to win her heart! “I don’t get it, though. Why would you flirt with her? Do you think Ms. Gwynn is going to change her mind because of Eluned? I beg to differ, Mr. Noah. I find the young lady too unpleasant.”He continued to fiddle with the gilded lighter and remained quiet. He would no longer try to make Gwynn happy for the next few days. He was going to take a different approach instead.…Eluned went back to her apartment. Ewan was still in there. Ever since Noah dealt his reputation a heavy blow, he hadn’t gotten any jobs. So, he was killing time by playing video games at home. He heard the door opening and turned his head sideways to look at her. It seemed she had a good day. He asked casually, “Did everything go well today? We can always go back to Silvercrest if y
At the next moment, however, Noah returned to his stern self again. Eluned didn’t do any work the whole time she was in Sanders Group. Her job, it seemed, mostly comprised of attending meetings and business gatherings with him. Kim was present too, but she did things a little differently.She could put on more casual wear whenever she accompanied Noah to places other than the company. Not Kim, though. Kim always wore attire that clearly showed she was the director’s assistant. Eluned was the one who kept him company at dinner parties. The company provided her with expensive gowns and jewelry. She had to return them after the occasion. However, she always fantasized that there’d come a day when she wouldn’t have to do it because Noah would offer them to her for keeps. As time went by, people around them saw through the young lady’s intentions. Some of them even jokingly said that she understood Noah like no one else ever had. He held a glass of champagne and did nothing to
Noah didn’t duck out of the way. Instead, he took it squarely. Her fingers left a faint mark on his fair cheeks. Even the waiters didn’t care about him when they saw it. They merely clicked their tongue and went about their businesses. At the next moment, he grabbed Gwynn’s hand and dragged her to the elevator. She couldn’t break free. He took her all the way to the underground parking lot and stuffed her into the backseat of a black Rolls-Royce. Her head hit the leather seat heavily. Then, she came to her senses and tried to scramble out of the car. However, he pinned her down firmly. Staring at her with lust, he said sultrily, “I didn’t do anything to her, nor am I interested in sleeping with her!”His voice was as husky as they came. It was clear that he was sexually frustrated. Ever since Gwynn left him, he had never slept with anyone. He did masturbate, but it felt drastically different from the pleasure he got from slipping his manhood into a lady. He was so blue-
At the next moment, Gwynn opened the car door and got out. Ignoring the miserable state of his pants, he stepped out of the car and gave chase to her. However, she ran fast and hopped into a black limousine, which was parked across the driveway. Her car was quickly showered in vibrant colors from the neon lights.There weren’t any traces of longing in her eyes as she sat in it. Perhaps he was wrong. He thought he could blackmail her with Eluned, but he had forgotten an important detail. She was no longer the young lady he used to know. After all, she did something as ruthless as stabbing him in the left chest!Why would someone like Eluned matter to her?He stood in the dark of night for a long time, feeling disheartened. Then, he walked back into his car. He didn’t do anything about his long pants, which were thoroughly drenched. He merely sat in the driver’s seat and thought about Gwynn as he smoked slowly. The moment he finished smoking, he pulled out of the underground p
Eluned finally saw it. Noah intended to use her as a pawn, but she was the fool who thought he really had a thing for her. The bitter truth was that he had never really loved her. Reaching out, he wiped the rearview mirror and said dryly, “I’m going to ask the Human Resources Department to send you a termination letter! You’ll get six months worth of severance pay. That’s that!”With that, he raised the car window. She lost her composure and yelled, “Mr. Noah! Mr. Noah!”However, he had driven away. He despised her. It was true. Maddox had been a big pain in his butt for a long time. He had never liked the man one bit. Be that as it may, Maddox was honest and loyal. That garnered some semblance of respect from him. People like Eluned, however, weren’t worth his attention, not even for a second.It was spring. He went to Gwynn’s gallery at night. He waited for her by the side of the road. Gwynn came out of her gallery at around ten. She clearly saw him, but she pretende
After that, the painter left. Gwynn sat in the coffee shop by herself, intending to finish the rest of her beverage. “Hi, Ms. Gwynn.” She heard a man’s voice next to her.Raising her eyes, she was surprised to see that it was Ewan!He sat across the table. Looking a little miserable, he said, “I broke up with Eluned.”She responded dryly, “I have no interest in whatever’s going on between the two of you.”He got worked up and continued, “Do you want to know why I’ve broken up with her? It’s because of Noah! She was completely different ever since he seduced her. She’s no longer acting like herself. “Now, I’m perfectly fine to break up with her, but I can’t stand the idea that she’s ruining her life for no good reason.”How ironic, she thought to herself. She asked him, “Perhaps you should try taking some sense into her instead, Ewan! With that said, I don’t think you can stop her if she’s set on bringing about her own ruin like a moth to the flame.”He stared at her quiet
Gwynn was dumbfounded. At the next moment, the blindfold obscuring her sight was drenched with her tears. She couldn’t believe this was happening. Her voice was very husky when she asked, “Are you sure you want to do this?”She squirmed fiercely. She let out a scream that tore through the night. “What sort of tragic end must we endure before you stop this madness, Noah?”Holding the back of her neck with his thick palm, he pulled her into his arms. Pressing against her body, he said in a deep voice, “It’s never going to end! We’re going to be together forever, Gwynn!”The time for games was over. He had had enough of indulging in her foolishness. The time had run out on her so-called freedom. From here on out, he’d decided everything. As a matter of fact, the pictures she had taken had long stopped being a threat to him. He had transferred the collaboration to another company. It was all just a cover, though. The collaboration was still firmly under his grasp. She could no
All of this was too mortifying for Gwynn. Noah didn’t love her. He was just asserting his perverted dominance over her. That was all. She did everything she could to not moan, even if she was flooded with tides of immense pleasure. There was even once when the tip of his manhood drove into her deepest part as if he was drilling into her soul. However, she endured all of it with every fiber of her being. She refused to let out a single moan. That’d only mortify her even more. She wasn’t being violated by a man. Instead, she was being ravaged by a monster!After all, only a heartless monster could do what he was doing to her now!Only when she could no longer bear the agonizing torment, did she let out a cry of grief from the deepest part of her soul.No. This can’t be…Why did it hurt so much?Why was the pain this unbearable?!The light in her eyes started fading until there was nothing.Her mind traveled back to when she first approached him. Her heart raced when she ki
