Chapter 30: The Devil's Lover
Chapter 30: The Devil's Lover
Aiden finished the video patiently, gave the phone back to her, "Well, you're brave enough to do that. Just send the video online."
Ella shivered with anger. All she could respond was F-words.
Wasn't he afraid at all?
"Are you out of your mind? As the president of the Hill Group, aren't you afraid of such a scandal?" She couldn't resist reminding him of the public clout about sex assault in the workplace.
"If known to the media, this kind of scandal would definitely have an impact on the public image of the company. But my team of lawyers will defend for me. And they'll explain the video in a different version, saying that as a female employee of the company, that's you, wants to take a shortcut. And what's more, your trick doesn't work but want to extort."
"In the video, you didn't call for help, and you took the video. It could be said that you had an ulterior motive. Who would believe your word then? When it came to light, it would be you who would be the only person who could not survive in this city. What am I afraid of?"
Ella's face turned bloodless. She didn't realize the only chip she had in her hand seemed to be nothing in front of Aiden.
What's even more ridiculous was that she herself thought his words made sense.
What else could she do?
Aiden enjoyed a triumphant joy. He stood up and walked to her with confidence. He held her with his big hands, with his face buried in her fair neck. His words were with heat, "The video Was good, but the real play was better..."
Ella wanted to hit him but was caught by his big hands in one second. He smiled evilly, "Ella, keep strength so that you can serve me well."
Aiden immediately held her on his shoulders and took her to the lounge.
No matter how she yelled and fought ,Aiden was determined to punish her.
Punish her for daring to reckon on him!
Punish her for turning against him over and over again!
Ella wept out of tears. But he did not show any pity.
This woman challenged his patience again and again, and he would let her understand what the obedience was...
Ella put on her clothes numbly. She was full of hatred now.
Aiden, who had put on his suit coat, enjoyed the shame and anger of Ella and also the tears and despair.
He is becoming more and more addicted to her body...
He had to admit that Ella's body fits his best.
That was why he could not let her go!
Ella put on her high heels, turned her back to Aiden, "Can I go now?"
Aiden walked behind her to hold her. He spoke casually but with a smell of danger, "Stay away from my cousin."
His cousin?
Seeing her silent, Aiden said, "I mean Daniel Nelson."
She did not expect that Daniel and Aiden are cousins!
Feeling her body still not relaxed, he sounded full of warning, "Be my woman, I will let you go in three months,. If you dare to play tricks again, I have a lot of ways to deal with you."
"Can I go now?" Her patience was almost running out.
Aiden tucked an elevator card into her clothes, "You can come straight up to me..."
Ella got rid of him, took the elevator card out of her clothes, and directly ran to open the door, leaving the office without looking back.
In the elevator, she got so angry at herself that she even want to slap herself!
Why did she hook up on him!
Now she is the devil's lover, not a romantic office one, but a toy of Aiden Hill!
Ella kept scolding herself.
But as she looked up, she saw herself in the elevator mirror and instantly regretted.
She forgot the slap print on her face!
What a coincidence! She ran into Daniel.
Ella was flustered and turned away from him, bowing her head to leave.
"Wait."
She froze. Daniel stepped forward, "Where have you been?"
She was even more flustered, "Well, nowhere."
"Ella, come to my office." He was supposed to take the elevator but turned to his office with her.
Ella had to follow him with her head down.
From the other's view, it seemed that Ella would be scolded by Daniel. And everyone seemed happy to see that,
The company is complex with all these people, gossip, and rumor...
In the office.
Daniel took out an ice bag and gave it to Ella. His tone was full of concern, "Apply one. Wait for a moment before back to work."
"But Daniel, I have so much to do today. I have to get back to.."
"I arranged those work for you, just finish them tomorrow."
"Really?"
"I told you my words."
She was relieved that she sat on the sofa and took the ice pack to her face.
Her own hand was strong, literally bet her face to swollen. Exclusive content © by Nô(v)el/Dr/ama.Org.
"You didn't tell me where've you been just now? And, what happened to your face?"
His question made Ella silent again. "It's … just …"
She just couldn't tell the reason!
"Don't be afraid, is it the staff who bet you?"
"No …"
Her denial and non-explanation, made him angry, "Ella, who are you covering up for?"
Ella sighed, "Daniel, I am not covering for anybody. Actually I made the print myself. I can't tell you the specific reason. Thank you for the ice bag. I'll get back to work now."
The atmosphere would only be more awkward if she stayed longer.
At the moment Ella turned the handle, Daniel walked to her,"Ella, you said that you don't have any boyfriend. Can I be yours?"
She looked up in shock. "Daniel..."
"I knew I had a bias against you when you first got into the company. But then I saw your designs. I changed my impression of you. I went online to check your past designs, and honestly, it was excellent. You deserved to work at Hill Group. I think you can get the first place in the competition this time!"
