Chapter 301 - 301: No Other Woman (1/2)

Seeing Erick was dazed, Elle grabbed that opportunity to launch a counterattack. Now, it was her turn to tease him.

Elle put her arms on his strong hard chest. Erick groaned due to the sudden surge of heat inside him. She began to caress his chest using her palms, drawing circles on his shirts. Her touch was adding fuel to the fire of his desire.

”I already told you before, Chief Lee. You have an irresistible charm. Following me here is like you are throwing yourself to me. So who am I to refuse that?” Elle whispered to him seductively.

Erick took a deep breath, trying to maintain his wits. He closed his eyes, fighting the urge to touch her.

He was playing with fire. He thought he could handle it very well but Elle was affecting him too much. He was on the verge of losing his self-control.

All he wanted to hear from her was to admit that she's Elle. Then he wouldn't have to fight this anymore. But Elle was really stubborn. She didn't want to give in.

Elle tiptoed and leaned closer to his ear.

”Chief Lee… stop thinking about Elle. Don't look for a person who's not here. I am the one who's in front of you. I am not Elle. I am Ali… Aliyah Ross.” Elle's voice was so soft and sweet, very tempting.

”Hmm… can I kiss you now? Or do you want to kiss me? Choose one… Either I kiss you or you kiss me.”

Erick could feel her hot breath on his ear and neck.

”I...I-I can't kiss you… if you are not Elle.” Erick mustered his remaining self-control and responded to her.

Elle's lips curled up in a taunting smile. Elle felt that Erick's grip on her waist tightened. He was really fighting it.

”If you can't then I will be the one to kiss you…” Elle said with her mellow voice.

”N-No! You can't…” Erick's ragged and raspy voice echoed inside the comfort room. There was a hint of helplessness in his tone.

”But your body… is telling me the opposite. I know you want it…” Elle continued to tease the poor guy. Her lips already brushed his jawline.

Erick groaned inwardly as he felt her soft delicate lips touching his skin.

'[email protected], Elle! You are driving me crazy!'

”Because my body knows that you are Elle. That's why I want you… so badly.” Erick justified himself.

Erick and Elle, they were both stubborn.

Elle heaved a deep sigh. ”Erick Lee. You are insane!”

”Yes I am. It's because of you.” This time Erick opened his eyes.

He's back to normal. He succeeded in controlling his urge. He was now calm and composed while looking straight in Elle's eyes.

”How long are you gonna pretend?” Erick asked her desperately.

There were conflicting emotions, flickering in her dark eyes right now. Elle looked away first.

”Can't you just see me as Me... as who I am?” Elle asked him. Her words were full of meanings.

Erick saw a gleam of sadness when Elle said those words to him. He was rendered speechless. Then their surroundings were engulfed by deafening silence.

After what seemed like ages, Erick spoke up once again.

”I am sorry,” Erick mumbled as he lifted her chin so that their eyes could meet.

'I told myself that I wouldn't force her. Then why the hell I am doing this? Erick… you are a Dumbfool.' Erick thought to himself.

Elle gazed up only to see Erick's gentle and loving smile. She felt puzzled. 'Why is he suddenly apologizing?'
