Chapter 188 - How To Cut A Diamond?(2) (2/2)

”Yeah!” He answered her honestly as he scratched the back of his head.

”Aprehend his actions.

”It will hurt a little.” He murmured softly making her confused.

He grabbed her ankle and twisted it at an angle, causing a stinging pain in her ankle. ”I'm sorry.” The man apologized to her before putting her sandal back on her foot. ”Wait for a minute.” He muttered as he stood up, straightening his coat.

Slowly, the pain in her foot, began to subside. She tried moving it when the pain died down. To her surprise, she could move it in all directions without flinching. She looked up at him in surprise. ”What did you do?”

”I used to sprain my ankle a lot while I was learning kickboxing, so I learned this little trick. Don't try this yourself, you may end up making the pain worse.” He replied to her.

”I didn't get your name, if you don't mind.” Stella asked him.

”Blythe, Blythe Jameson. At your service.” He added with a dramatic small bow, making her giggle.

”Is he still looking here?” He asked her.

Stella was at a loss for words when she heard him. She frowned in confusion but soon realized what did he mean by his question. She bobbed her head up and down. ”More like glaring daggers at your back.”

Blythe chuckled at her answer. ”If he comes after me, don't forget to save this humble man.”

”He knows you, doesn't he? Her sudden remark was more of a statement. It was only then she realized that he has been standing in a way all this while that his back was facing towards the table Adam was sitting at.

”Don't worry. I have got your back.” She added sarcastically, making him shake his head at her idea of sarcasm.

”Isn't it time to deliver the final blow?” Blythe asked her, making her eyes glint with mischief.

She extended her hand towards him while pointing towards the stage where only a few couples were dancing to the soft melody that the band was playing. ”Shall we?” She asked him with a bright smile, making sure that Adam could see her hand and smiling face.

Blythe took hold of her hand and guided her to the stage like a true gentleman. All this while he made sure to keep looking at Stella so that Adam couldn't see his face, or else the game would be over. Once they were in the center of the stage, he twirled her around once while turning himself around so that his back was facing Adam. He caught her in his arms but made sure to keep a distance between them.

Wilson had told him about her a couple of times. He adored her like her own sister. As for him, he had nothing but respect for her. Even though she was just Adam's secretary, her business sense was way too good for someone of her age.
