“Yes, do you have a problem with that?” Hesper looked down and smiled, her hair dropping onto her
collarbones, beautiful and alluring.
“Haha, you know each other. But Mr. Duval, you’re a little too late. We’ve signed the agreement.” The
director of Drogon Tech pointed at the agreement on the table. He was a smart man.
They just signed it and hadn’t even put it away yet.
Rickard’s eyes turned dark as he balled up his fists. “Well, if you’ve come to an agreement, I’ll be the
first to wish you a smooth partnership. Mr. Tyler, I’d like to speak to Ms. Lane in private. Could you
excuse us please?”
“Sure, I’ll be on my way then. Take your time.” Joseph Tyler chuckled and walked out. When he walked
past them, he even whistled.
Benji felt like he wanted to yell at someone. Joseph knew how important the project was to them, but
he toyed with them then signed with someone else. That was just rude!
“You need to go out too,” Rickard said.
Benji was stunned, but when he realized that he was talking to him, he left.
The doors of the room closed. Hesper lazily sat back on the couch and smiled. “What’s on your mind,
Mr. Duval? Are you angry?”
Rickard didn’t reply but instead asked, “You did this internationally?”
“What do you think?”
Rickard thought that she needed to be taught a lesson. He loosened his tie and walked closer to her
then finally pulled her into his arms while she looked shocked.
“You’re getting bolder, Hesper. The old you would never do something so arrogant.”
Under the dim light, his breath was on her ear. Hesper turned her face slightly and looked straight into
his deep eyes. They were like a whirlpool. Once you took a look, you’d be sucked in.
“So what?” She quickly looked away, but Rickard wasn’t going to let her off easily. He raised her chin
with his finger and looked at her carefully. NôvelDrama.Org: text © owner.
“I thought you came back to take revenge, but I guess I was part of the reason for your return?”
“Are you afraid?” Hesper didn’t want to admit that. She just didn’t want to get the short straw.
Rickard, however, smiled and caressed her face. He wanted to teach her a lesson, but now he
realized that he missed how it felt to touch her.
He calmly said, “Afraid? I’m interested to see what you’re going to do to me.”
He then let go and said, “Joseph Tyler is an old fox. You need to keep two eyes out if you’re working
with him. My advice is to be very careful.”
Watching him walk away, Hesper squinted. That was all he had. He sounded tough, but his eyes
betrayed him.
The look that screamed Intimacy was hard to hide.
As for what he said, Hesper wasn’t dumb. She knew that she would be able to take full advantage of
Joseph when she planned to work with him.
The night grew dark.
A Maserati was parked by the road for a long time, Benji curiously took a look at the rearview mirror
and asked, “Sir, are we not leaving?”
“Just a little longer.”
The woman took the efford to dress up for an occasion like this. He wouldn’t be able to relax if he didn’t
see her leave safely.
Hesper walked out flanked by her bodyguards soon after. She had a black suit jacket around her
shoulder and her beautiful, long legs were showing under her skirt.
Even though he would never admit it, he couldn’t deny that she was a lot more attractive than she was
before. The sensualness she exuded from inside out was like an addictive drug.
Even he wasn’t able to get away from this poisonous drug.
