Chapter 147 Deal?
Chapter 147 Deal?
When Ann came out of William's ward, the sky had completely darkened.
The hospital corridor was long and silent. Phillip suddenly appeared, grabbing Ann's hand and walking
towards the stairs, which made her a little flustered.
"Phillip, what are you doing?"
Ann tried her best to break free from Phillip, but he became even more forceful as if he wanted to break
her hands.
Finally, he stopped at the empty entrance of the building.
Before Ann could react, she was controlled by Phillip to the back wall.
Phillip lowered his head, looking at the panicked Ann. He noticed her flustered and evasive eyes, which
were even redder than before.
"What happened? Why are you avoiding me?"
What surrounded her was all his aura. She had nowhere to run.
She reached out to push him away, but just as she touched the corner of his clothes, she suddenly
withdrew her hands as if she had been electrocuted.
In the end, she could only put her hands behind her back, her fingertips unconsciously digging at the
cracks on the marble wall behind her.
She turned half round, leaving only a fragile profile that seemed so delicate.
"I didn't avoid you," Ann said softly.
Hearing this, Phillip's eyes sank. He raised lifted Ann's chin, forcing her to make eye contact.
He could feel that owing to his touch, her body froze obviously and her eyes became panic and
helplessness and more darkened.
His tone unconsciously became a bit cold, and his hand that was pinching Ann's chin also slightly
tightened.
"Now you still insist you didn't hide from me?"
Ann felt some pain because of his strength. She wanted to pull it away, but he easily grabbed her Content © NôvelDrama.Org.
hands and held them above his head.
Knowing that she couldn't break free from his grasp, she was frustrated, her eyes dimmed, her lips
curled into a bitter arc.
"Phillip, I don't like you this way."
Phillip watched her condescendingly, who became so abnormal just for only going out for a while. His
thin lips were tightly pursed, and his eyes were filled with bone-chilling coldness.
"You are always like this. No matter what my wish is, as long as you think it is right, you force me to
accept it."
Ann took a deep breath, tears flashing in her eyes as she raised her head to look straight at Phillip.
"I promised to be with you just because you kept chasing me shamelessly. You are the president of the
Moore Group. If I offend you, I could even have trouble in living in River City..."
Phillip tightened his grip on Ann, causing Ann to frown in pain.
When she recovered, her lips curled into a mocking smile.
She looked straight into Phillip's deep and dark eyes, chuckling.
"Do you know? I hate Karl for his disbelief, and I hate your constant pestering. If it wasn't for you, how
could he have misunderstood me? But it doesn't matter. I didn't love him at all. Nowadays, there is no
pure love between men and women. It is just a deal."
"Deal?" Phillip narrowed his eyes coldly.
"Yes, what you like is just my body and appearance. What I want is just the money and power you can
provide for me..."
After a pause, Ann looked at him, quirking up her lips, and wanted to make a mocking and pleasing
expression.
However, when she met Phillip's eyes, which seemed to be able to see through everything, there was
still panic in a twinkle in her eyes.
She bit her lower lip to maintain her rationality and said in a cold tone.
"You may not know yet, but I have already obtained a recommendation letter from Kerr for a top
overseas studio. This way, even if I leave you, I can still obtain fame and power!"
"Oh? Then why are you not leaving?"
"Of course it is because you are the president of the Moore Group, the dream lover of all women, which
is enough to satisfy my vanity. I just played with you for a while before getting tired!"
"So, you said you loved me and agreed to be with me. Is it all a fake?"
Phillip's voice was very soft, like falling feathers.
However, it was also like a ringing in Ann's eardrums.
Ann could not help but shrink her neck and turn her head slightly. She could see Phillip's face just close
to hers.
The cold expression on his face had completely disappeared.
Under the light, his facial features were elegant, soft, and almost transparent.
His handsome eyebrows were slightly folded, his long and thick eyelashes slightly trembling which half-
covered the eyelids. It was impossible to see through the emotions in his eyes, but it made others feel.
Right now, he was fragile and sorrowful.
Because of her.
Ann felt her heart tighten. As if being bewitched, she moved closer to Phillip, trying to calm him down.
The moment she got closer, she saw a pair of dark eyes surging with burning flames that could almost
swallow her.
The Battered-Body Trick!
Ann restored her rationality and wanted to retreat. But how could he give her this chance?
Phillip grabbed Ann's slender waist and pulled her closer. Their bodies were tightly intertwined.
"Have anyone told you that you are not a good liar?"
