Chapter 49 - You are someone very special to me. (2/2)
Small drops of tears dropped down her cheeks. His heart ached witnessing her tears, ”Why are you crying? Was the kiss that rough? Let me see”. He stepped forward to touch her lips with his thumb but she swatted it away instantly.
”Little Cat...”, he called out. His eyes were fierce enough to kill anyone.
She stepped back to distance herself from him, ”It's not Little Cat. My name is Wu Lifen. I am working under you that doesn't mean you can do whatever you want”. Her eyes darkened.
She continued, ”What do you take me as? I am not like the girls that threw themselves to you and willingly wished to be toyed by you. Don't take yourself that highly Mr.Wang”. The words jabbed hard, piercing every inch of his heart.
He understood that what he has done was something wrong, but was it that wrong that it aggrieved her so much. He wasn't wrong, she do gave him the permission when her movements started to compliment his but then why is she feeling so unfair. That doesn't matter now, the thing that matters now to him was she was feeling terrible and all these are because of him. He wanted to crush himself for this.
She continued in a harsher tone, ”I don't know what offended you that much. I won't say that you were jealous before because I know you can't get jealous, that too over me. That's completely impossible”, she smiled slightly but her smile was engulfed with sadness, ”I am not that capable. I am just a common girl, can't be compared to those high class socialites that belongs to your high class society”.
”But for not offending you any more. I want to clear a thing. There is nothing in between me and Gu Jingche. I was just talking with him casually when you were busy with your own affairs there. I didn't wanted to talk at first but that would be a little rude for a common girl like me, who has accompanied you there and then was left alone. I am sorry, if that offended you”, she paused and looked at him.
There was a deafening silence for few minutes. Their eyes were locked with each other. He squinted his eyes to clearly see each and every expression in her eyes.
He then lunged forward pressed his thumb against her cheeks to wipe off her tears, ”I am sorry”, his eyes filled with guilt and pain, ”But don't you ever say that you are someone common. You are not, you are someone who have piqued my interest. I am sorry for treating you that harsh. But you were right you can't be compared with those high socialites that disgrace themselves everytime throwing those wicked tantrums”.
He cupped her cheeks and lifted it up slightly so that he can gaze deeply into his eyes, ” You are someone very special to me. Don't take yourself that lightly. You are always my Little Cat, I was a little possessive for you because I can't afford to share you with anyone else”.
Lifen felt butterflies in her heart when she gazed deep into his unwavering eyes. She lost all her words of anger, her eyes softened witnessing this soft side of his. Was he the same person whom the country consider a cold brutal demon of business? Then how come he is so soft to her?.
