"You even pretend not to know me!" Nigel hissed. He was furious. The woman he'd been looking for for the past two years had the guts to forget him. Nala thought back to two years ago. That man mumbled in her ears that his name was... something Anderson? Which means he was THAT MAN! She covered her mouth in shock. 'The world is too small! What is he doing here?!' Nala thought. "Mr... Mr. Anderson?" She stuttered a little, trying to keep calm and get to the point. "Good that you remembered." Nigel gave a deadly glare at Nala. She wanted to run away so much but she just couldn't do it. Kelvin, at this point, has a complicated expression on his face. Was she the girl named Nala that his boss was looking for all this time? From Nigel's expression, he guessed it was really her. "Oh, I see that you guys know each other." Lisa smiled childishly, "That's good. We're here to discuss your bridal design that Manager Lee showed us earlier, Ms. Auria." "Oh the bridal set? It's the newest and the only design, specially made for our precious client." Nala nervously explained to Lisa the conditions. She occasionally looked at Nigel, who was still staring at her without saying a word. He lets Lisa decide it all. Nala felt a hint of relief that this scary man already had a fiancee. She was worried that his fiancee would find out what happened to them 2 years ago. 'I'll get this work done and never see them again, that's it. I can totally do it.' She thought to herself. "Then we'll have it that way. We'll be going first." Lisa stood up and hooked her arm to Nigel's arm but he retracted. The situation turned awkward. Nigel hadn't said a single word to Lisa since they met up there. He only talked to Nala a few times. But Lisa kept her cool and didn't think about it too much. She had to go to the studio to work later anyway and they both came in different vehicles. "Ms. Huang, please go on first. President has something to say to Ms. Auria." Kelvin spoke up. Lisa said nothing and gave Nala a complicated expression. Nala smiled helplessly at her and bowed with respect. She said goodbye again and left with her assistant. Kelvin also went to wait outside the room afterward. Nigel didn't say anything but he kept looking at Nala blankly for a few minutes. The cold room is filled with silence. She nervously fidgets her fingers from time to time. She didn't dare to look at the man. He was too scary for anyone to be around him. "You're good at hiding." Nigel broke the silence and spoke mockingly to Nala. His arms crossed around his big muscular chest. "I..I wasn't hiding. That time I wanted to apologize but you were sleeping, so I left you a note." Nala stuttered to explain. She bit her lower lips and kept her eyes on the ground all the time. "You think a note was enough after taking advantage of me like that?" Nigel stood up and slowly walked toward her with a stern face. Nala took a few steps back until her back touched the wall. She was terrified of this man's scary temperament. She also felt angry at the same time. He knew very well she was drugged and still confronted her about it. "I was drugged that night. I didn't take advantage of you, Mr. Anderson!" She was furious that her cheeks turned light red. Nigel thought she looked cute, so he teased her even more. "Really? Then who begged me to help that night?" He smirked and crossed his arms again, trying to observe Nala's reaction. "You really are a shameless woman." Nala was so embarrassed and angry that she wanted to punch his handsome face! Blood rushed through her face, it made her face even more red. "Back then, I wasn't being myself. Tell me what you want from me, Mr. Anderson. If you want an apology, I will apologize to you again!" She clenched her teeth and stared at Nigel angrily. "I don't accept apologies. They're insincere." Nigel was uninterested in her offer, "Well, there are many other women who would do anything to sleep with me. One even offered me a mansion. What can you give me, Ms. Auria?" He continued and glazed at Nala lazily. "I don't have anything to offer you, Mr. Anderson and I believe you don't need another mansion. You're wealthy enough!" She protested. He's already one of the richest men in the country who had everything he needed. What more could she possibly offer him? She thought. He acted like he was a virgin when he probably had slept with hundreds of girls already. Nala thought angrily. "How about you give me ten million in court where I sue you for taking advantage of me while I was drunk?" He smiled dangerously and leaned very close to her lips. Their faces are only a few centimeters apart. 'TEN MILLION?' Nala was shocked. She flinched backward a bit. A soft bang was heard. Nala expected to get her head banged against the wall but it didn't hurt at all. Something soft is protecting her head from hurting. It was Nigel's big warm hand- "Are you crazy?! Ten million for sleeping with you!" She screamed in horror. But when she realized that he was holding her head, her cheeks suddenly turned even more pink in embarrassment. "What do you think? I'm not an easy person anyone can be close to, let alone spending a night." He shrugged. "Heh, you're just an expensive p********e. What do I even expect!" Nala thought it'd make him angry. Well, it did provoke him. He grabbed her chin forcefully with a cold expression. "I am not a p********e. I'm telling you not to mess with people from a different class like me." His cold dark eyes stared deeply into her soul, as if he was reminding her again not to mess with him. "Come to my company tomorrow, 10 a.m straight, bring your lawyer too." He squeezed her chin tightly then dashed out of the room without looking back. He's furious. Nala, on the other hand, turned pale like a ghost. She learned that she had messed with the wrong person. Ten million. Where is she going to get that large amount of money in 24 hours? She wanted to slap her smart mouth so much! All thanks to that b*stard Jasper, Nala lost her virginity and dignity as well. And him? Where the heck is Jasper now? No one has even heard from him since she broke up with him 2 years ago after the incident happened. What is she going to do now?!! She couldn't even afford a lawyer! ___________________________________________________
