Chapter 4

The man was crazy to propose such a thing to me! The nerve! For a second, I couldn’t speak because of shock. No, it wasn’t just a normal shock. I was enraged at his dirty proposal! “How dare you!” I shouted at the bastard.

“Take it or leave it, Miss Selena, but I won’t settle for less,” he continued.

“One million dollars isn’t less, you arrogant bastard!”

“For some people, it’s huge; however, I don’t need your money, Madam. So, if you will spend a night with me, I will gladly leave in the morning. Decide now before it’s too late,” he stated.

I narrowed my eyes at the man who dared to flip the situation. I was the one to make the first offer, but he managed to call the shots with just one sentence that disturbed my senses! “You are crazy if you believe that I’m going to have sex with you. For your information, you are not my type,” I informed him, but he just chuckled at my response!

“Are you sure? Look at me, Miss.”

“What do you think you’re doing, Lee?” I shouted at the man who dared to take off his shirt in front of me. “Ah, you must have assumed that those rock-hard abs will be my weakness. I’m sorry to disappoint you, Lee, but it’s not enough to make me horny,” I told him, and he just raised his eyebrow while putting his clothes back, then he frowned. I smiled upon discovering a weak spot on him, and I could use it to my advantage to torment him even more. “You are gorgeous for a man, Lee. I like your eyes, they’re so expressive, and your teeth are not crooked. I also liked your lips; they are so damn kissable. And of course your long, blonde hair; It would be fun to hold unto them tightly while doing it. However, I am engaged to someone else, and it’s only fair to let him touch me first.”

“You are trying to be funny, aren’t you, Miss Selena? You can’t fool me, you know.”

Once again, I glared at the man who looked down on me just because he saw me in a compromising position. “I don’t care if you don’t want to believe me. Why Lee? Is it hard to accept that someone like me refused to spend a night with you? Come to think of it, you’re good-looking, yet I am not interested in you. Don’t you think there’s a hidden reason behind my decision? Maybe, you have a body odor that irritates my nose, or you lack down there,” I said while pointing at his crotch. I smiled when his cheeks became red with rage. He pointed his finger at me, but he wasn’t able to say anything and ended up sniffing his underarm.  

 ”I now understand why you are unable to find a partner who can assist you in relieving your itch! You’re maybe attractive, but you are the most vicious lady I have ever met in my life! Aren’t you so arrogant for a slut, Miss Selena?”  He retaliated with even stronger remarks, which caused me to recoil in frustration.

 ”I am not who you believe me to be! I'm not a slut at all!” I confronted him with a yell. In response, he bowed his head and went towards the...connecting door? I followed him into the connecting room when he opened the door and walked in. “I'm still talking to you! You are not permitted to walk away while I am still speaking, damn you!” The man just ignored my presence and proceeded to strip his clothing down to his boxer shorts!

“I’m going to take a shower now, and if you really want to talk to me, you can follow me inside,” he said.

“My God, Lee! Aren’t you the most frustrating man that I have the misfortune to encounter?”

“Baby,” he replied.

I glared at his back when I didn’t understand his response. “What did you say?”

“You should call me ‘baby’ if you want me to follow your order,” he stated before grinning at me.

“You’re a lunatic!” I screamed at him for being impossible. His statement made me shake my head in disbelief that I had wasted a few minutes of my time following him and speaking with him when he was clearly not worth my time!

I stormed out of his room and returned to my own. I was frustrated with the arrogant man next door. While trying to control my temper, I attempted to contact my father, but his phone remained unreachable. A feeling of frustration had built up inside of me, and I had no way to let it out! Now that someone had taken up residence in the room next to mine, I couldn't afford to be negligent.

I could place a large item next to the connecting door to prevent Lee from opening it from the other side! What an excellent concept. Right away, I went in search of something I could use to block the connecting door, and there was only one object that was heavy enough to be moved - my bed!

I pushed on the upholstered bed with all of my might, but it refused to budge. Was it possible to use the couch instead? I put my strength to the test, and as it began to move, I pushed even harder.

When I succeeded in blocking it, I chuckled to myself at the notion that he would no longer be able to disturb me in my room. What should I do in this situation? It was difficult to keep my head from hanging on the side of my bed as I attempted to figure out how I might get the bodyguard to resign from his post.

I was so frustrated when an excellent idea popped up inside my head. Well, there was a saying that if you can’t beat him, then join him. I chuckled at the thought of making his life miserable inside my domain. If my plan worked, sooner or later, he would leave the residence without looking back.

On second thought, I had another problem to deal with; my fiancé. My father failed to mention his name, and he just told me he was marrying me off to one of his friend’s sons. He has several friends in the business circle, so how would I know which son I was arranged to be married to?

Suddenly, I felt suffocated inside my room and decided to go out to get some fresh air in the garden. As expected, the bodyguard was waiting for me outside the door. While I studied his expression upon seeing me in my over-revealing outfit, I decided to use him for my benefit.

“Follow me,” I ordered him. Instead of going to the garden, I changed my mind and returned to my bedroom. “Do something for me, Lee. I need you to list down all of my father’s friends and their sons, especially the unmarried ones.”

“Why?”

“I want to know who I am getting married to,” I answered in a low voice because, honestly, the idea of marrying a stranger didn’t appeal to me. “You can use my laptop to work,” I said before giving him access to my computer.

Lee turned out to be an obedient fellow and followed my order. As soon as he sat down on the coffee table by the window, I started to undress, and the rustling of clothes may have alerted him because he glowered at me with disgust. I knew I was playing a dangerous game, but he started it! 

“I’ll just be in the bathroom if you’ll need anything,” I said before sashaying my hips in front of him, and I heard him groan.
