Talented Heiress: A Rose With Thorns

Ellen let out an annoyed click of her tongue, but her attention quickly shifted.

'Not far away, a man stood with his back to her. Though she couldn't see his face, his tall, athletic frame in a fitted black suit radiated confidence.

But what really caught Ellen's attention was his backside. She couldn't help but exclaim, "Wow, what a nice butt!"

"Baby, where are you?" His deep, velvety voice sent a shiver down her spine, making her ears tingle with its magnetic pull. Yvette blinked, her voice soft as she tried to sound casual. "At the restaurant, having dinner with some friends."

"Really?" Wilson's voice was flat, but something about it made her feel a little uneasy. She bit her lip, trying to steady herself. ""Of course-

Before she could finish speaking, Wilson said in a dangerously calm tone, "Baby, turn around and look at the booth behind you."

Her heart skipped a beat. She blinked, her body freezing up as she slowly turned her head.

There he was, dressed in a white shirt with a button undone. His intense gaze was fixed on her, a teasing smile tugging at the corner of his lips. Wilson looked effortlessly charming, but there was an air of danger about him that made her heart
