Special services?
Could the hotel have arranged this?
“I don’t need it. Please leave this instant!”
“Miss, why don’t you reconsider?”
One of Evan’s restless hands gently grazed her cheek.
What the f**k! Did he just touch me?
Nicole was frantic. With one hand being restrained, she clenched her other hand into a fist and threw a punch at him.
Before she could hit home, her wrist was grabbed as well.
She struggled with all her might, but he held her wrists with an iron-clad grip.
“B*stard, let go of me!”
Evan’s lips lifted slightly. He continued toying with her, deepening his voice so as to conceal his identity.
“You’re a feisty one. Is this you asking me to be rough with you?”
What the hell? Is this b*stard trying to force himself onto me?
Her heart turned cold at this thought. Based on how things are going, this man doesn’t seem to have been arranged by the hotel!
When did he even come into my room?
Why didn’t I hear anything at all?
Based on the strength of his grip, he seems to be a strong man!
I’m just a woman. If he really forces himself onto me and I fight him with all my might, would it be enough for me to escape his clutches?
Or perhaps instead of using force, I should use my brains to outwit him?
Her intelligent eyes gleamed. She cleared her throat lightly and spoke in a cutesy voice, “Ow. You’re hurting me. Let me go first.”
This tone and reaction of hers made Evan’s whole body tense up.
Nicole has never even treated me this way!
But she’s treating a male stranger like this?
From her unusual docile manner, he was sure that she was going to do something unexpected next.
Evan released her wrists. Indeed, Nicole hastily turned on the lights and snatched up her bag from the bedside table, taking out a pepper spray before aiming it at him.
“I’ll spray you to death!”
Right after that, she sprayed it at him.
Evan, who was leaning on his side, immediately turned around and pulled the blanket over himself.
“What the hell! Why are you hiding?”
Unable to use her spray on him, Nicole yelled anxiously.
Evan’s face darkened. Why am I hiding? Did you expect me to just let you use that pepper spray on me?
Even a brainless idiot would know to hide!
“You… You…”
Damn it. I didn’t get him!
It was such a waste of my pepper spray.
No. I have to succeed.
She jumped off the bed and maintained a distance from him before raising her voice, “You! Turn around!”
Ever since Evan burrowed under the blanket, he had been ignoring her.
When Nicole saw this, she pulled the blanket with all her might. Evan did not loosen his grip on it either.
Hence, the two of them entered into a game of tug-of-war. However, his strength was too much for her to overcome. Before long, she became out of breath and stopped trying to pull the blanket away.
“You’re bullying me because I’m a woman, aren’t you? Just you wait!”
With that, she quickly grabbed her phone and dialed Rocky.
The call connected, but before she could speak, her phone was snatched away and the call was swiftly ended!
Nicole whipped her head up and was dumbstruck when she saw the man’s face.
“How… How are you here?”
“Disappointed?” Evan gazed at her with deep eyes.
“No, no…”
She wasn’t disappointed, but completely shocked out of her mind!
How did Evan appear here out of nowhere?
“Am I dreaming?”
She muttered to herself, then raised her hand to slap herself on the face.
She slapped herself a little bit too hard. F**k! It really hurts!
I’m really not dreaming!
She looked up at Evan again, suspecting that she was hallucinating.
She closed her eyes, then opened them again.
Evan Seet, the president of Seet Group, was still standing in front of her, staring at her intensely with that same frosty and arrogant look on his face.
“What are you doing here?”
“Don’t wanna see me?”
“It’s not that. I’m just really surprised.”
It’s as if he appeared out of thin air!
And it was just too sudden!
He didn’t just appear out of nowhere, but the way he appeared was just too…
“I came here to discuss a company project. When I checked into the hotel, I coincidentally spotted you and Rocky eating together.”
Nicole stayed silent for a while, wondering whether he had said that last part through gritted teeth or whether she had imagined it.
Rocky and I ran into each other here. Evan wouldn’t have read too much into things, right?
She mulled over it for a moment, then casually said that she and Rocky had been discussing a collaboration and that they coincidentally ran into each other.
