Chapter 77 - Im taking the room! (1/2)

”There is no signal to make phone calls and no internet connection. Nothing... the doors of all the buildings are also locked. Where are we gonna stay?” Bella Lim's eyes widened with exasperation.

”You accept the so-called punishment just like that?” Eric Wu asked. He found her acceptance of the current situation as weird. If the person in this situation wasn't her, he or she would probably be panicking as they were talking.

Bella Lim nodded her head and smiled, no words to reply to his query. Instead, she asked him about their accommodation. ”I need a bath, clean clothes and something to eat. Do you think Madam Olivia thought about it before leaving us here? Her plan would fail is she ignored these requirements,” she talked casually.

Eric Wu lifted an eyebrow. He thought about what she said for a while before coming to a full understanding. He let out a soft laugh, staring interestedly at the woman in front of him. Something was stirred inside him at her intelligence. For whatever reason, he found her extremely appealing.

All these while, most of the women he was introduced with were trying to look sėxy by revealing their skin, yet he found them unattractive.

But, what was the situation right now? Bella's comment actually made him see her as the sėxiest woman ever! Holy, could someone tell him this beforehand so he could be ready?

Eric Wu frowned, trying to calm himself down.

'Damnit!' he internally cursed. At the same time, he scooped Bella Lim off the ground, hoping that this skinship was enough to tame his beastly side.

”Eric!” the lady screamed in shock. She stared at Eric Wu in disbelieve. How dare him?!

”So you already knew her plan all along? Then, allow me to make her wish come true. Bella, we're going to have the whole day as our first date,” he declared with a laugh. His brown eyes stared deeply into her blue pairs of eyes.

Bella Lim bit her lower lip as she was really embarrassed. Never would she thought that Eric would take such a measure to tease her. She regretted trying to act cool when she found out about Madam Olivia's plan because it only made Eric let go of his worry and acted however he wanted. Little did she know about the conflict he was facing inside.

She struggled in Eric Wu's strong arm, however, the man was also fighting her effort. ”Don't struggle, you'll get hurt. I'll carry you to my mom's living quarters. It's far from here,” he said firmly as Bella Lim's wasn't trying to hold down her strength. Who would have known that there was powerful energy in her small body? Eric Wu facepalmed. He tried to flaunt his strength, but she made his attempt to almost fail. However, this was good, her fierce comeback was helping him subdued his beastly self.

Eric Wu lips curled to a smile as he thought that Bella Lim was truly a one of a kind woman! Who was she really? He was curious.

”What did you just say?” Bella Lim stopped her struggle as she stared at Eric Wu's chin. The man lowered his gaze, providing a better view of his handsome face.

”Hmm, what?” he grinned as his feet moved, leaving the garden and heading towards the walkway between the two residential buildings.

”Eric, you better put me down!” Bella Lim struggled again. From what she noticed, Eric Wu knew what she was asking about but pretended to ignore it. Therefore, to get the answer she wanted, she knew she had to free herself first.

Bella Lim spectated her surroundings and noticed that they were now heading towards a gate hidden by the climbing and rambling red roses. This was her chance! She was confident that in order to open the gate, Eric Wu had to loosen his grips on her. She had to wait for the chance to happen!

”Madam Olivia is your mom?” he heard her asked. Eric Wu stared at her for quite sometimes then he walked to the gate and pushed it open. Bella Lim's eyes followed his action and she gasped when she saw a cute cottage standing not far from where they were standing. She subconsciously walked forward and stopped right next to Eric Wu.

”Don't do anything or today will not end well for you,” she warned and the man laughed in response.

”Bella,” he called for her.
