C3 Chapter THREE

Gray's fingers were tantalizing, but I could see very clearly that there was not a hint of passion in his eyes.

He was messing with me.

I was damn pissed, so I bit his index finger. However, he did not move at all; he just kept staring at me.

What the hell?

I clamped down my teeth with greater force, but he still did not react. In fact, he had a look of amusement on his face, as if he liked what I was doing.

I gave up. I could not keep doing that to my boss anyway. He was still my boss despite the circumstances. I couldn't afford to mess with him.

I let go of his finger and he slowly pulled it out of my mouth.

Just when I was letting out a sigh of relief, his finger slowly reached in again. After he did this three to four times, I suddenly understood what he was trying to do.

"Fvck you, beast!" My face was red with embarrassment as I pushed him away.

"Ha!" Gray laughed. My anger made him very happy. He laughed so hard that he revealed a row of white teeth. He seemed to be in a very good mood after the prank was successful.

Bastard! I hope you get hit by a car and become a vegetable for life!

My wishes towards him were pretty nasty, and I dared not voice them out.

Even after I got off work I was still fuming, cursing him silently in my heart.

"Arianna, what did the boss need you for, and why did it take so long?" Sasha asked me as we both left the building.

I told her everything. "It is a pity that my great career in this company is ruined!" I sighed exasperatedly.

Sasha's eyes shone brightly, "Oh god! Life is even more melodramatic than a TV drama! I am so glad that such a beautiful thing has happened to you! You are so lucky!"

"Good thing? How the hell is this a good thing?" I retorted angrily.

"Why isn't it a good thing? CEO Gray Dexter is a handsome man with a high position and authority. I heard that his family background is pretty good too. I think that you might as well make the best of it and make him your boyfriend."

"Who cares about a boyfriend? It's not like I have any plans to get married in this lifetime. It's not like you don't know!" I was really pissed.

"We're already 27 years old, so we should have sexual needs, right? Even if we don't get married, it's still good to have a relationship with such a handsome man! Besides, you're going to have his child." Sasha retorted.

"Shush! Lower your voice." I only wanted a child and did not want to have anything to do with any man.

A few days later, I realized that I had spoken too early.

There were a lot of things to do that day, so I stayed back to work overtime. When I finished working, I started to leave when I realized that it was raining heavily. I didn't bring an umbrella with me, and it was already very late. There was no one in the company anymore. I couldn't even borrow an umbrella if I wanted to.

I resigned to fate, leaned against the pillar and waited for the rain to subside a little.

A BMW drove out of the underground parking lot and slowly stopped in front of me.

The car window rolled down, and Gray Dexter raised his chin at me, "Get in the car."

I hesitated. I hated being told what to do, especially by a man, and a man as cocky as Dexter.

I expected that he would ask again, even give me a chance to think, so you can imagine the shock on my face when he rolled up the car window without as much as another word.

The car was about to drive away and I shouted, "Wait!"

I scrambled into the car. Gray turned his head to glance at me and sneered.

"What are you laughing at?" I was a little drenched.

"I thought you were tough." He started to mock me once the car started moving.

"A wise man submits to circumstances. I'm smart and know when to be stubborn and when to be docile." I said as I leaned back into the car seat. Working overtime was quite tiring.

He didn't say anything, and the car was quiet.

Under normal circumstances, I would be nervous since I was in an enclosed space with my boss, but because I had slept with him, nervousness was thrown out of the window.

Soon, I was home. I was undressing when I remembered that I had left my phone in Gray's car.

Shlt!

How could I have been so careless? My mother had called me during the ride, and I definitely forgot to put the phone back into by handbag.

I decided to go to bed. I would ask Gray for it tomorrow.

I was just about to step into the shower when I heard a very soft knock on the door.

Who could it be?
