Chapter 14



“What are you doing?” He asked her, his tone cold and distant and was a huge contrast from his once warm one during the surgery.

What was she going to do? Arianna didn’t need to be told twice, she lied immediately; it was a reflex action.

“I was trying to adjust your mask, it seems it went awry during the surgery,” she blushed, intentionally lowering her gaze and appearing to be timid, “You’re quite a handsome man,” Arianna hinted that she might have seen a bit of his appearance.

The man narrowed his gaze at her, regarding Arianna intensely. A moment ago she didn’t hit him as a shy woman until now. Was she acting or what? Well, he hardly knew the woman, why wonder much about her?

If only the man had superman hearing, he would hear Arianna’s heart pounding hard in her chest even though she looked calm. She had taken a huge risk by hinting that she had seen a trace of his face? What if he turns out to be a well-known mobster whose identity can’t be known and ends up killing her? God! What has she gotten herself into? This was all because of Ruth, she wailed inwardly.

Arianna pulled her hand a bit and that reminded the man that he was still awkwardly holding onto her and he released her immediately. He readjusted his mask by himself and she took that opportunity to look at him again.

.....

For someone who just went through surgery without any anesthesia, he was still awake and didn’t even show a trace of pain or weakness. Wow, he was really strong and her type of man.

“Am I that handsome?”

“Huh?” she was startled by that question. It came out of nowhere and took her by surprise.

Arianna only smiled at him politely.

“That’s not an answer,” He still wanted a response to his question.

“Well...”

“Well...?” he cocked his brow

“You obviously know you’re handsome, why do you still need to hear that from my mouth?” Arianna said to her own very surprise. Whoah, she must really want to die.

“It’s more interesting hearing someone else confirm that,” He said smugly.

Arianna rolled her eyes and finally told him what he wanted to hear, “Fine, you’re handsome, are you satisfied?”

He smiled and that action warmed Arianna’s heart, he looked less intimidating that way. Speaking of which, why was she even beginning to get comfortable with him? She was supposed to stay away from him for Christ’s sake. This man wasn’t in her league. He was beyond her.

“Do you have a boyfriend?” He asked, startling her.

Wonderful, just as she was about to keep a distance from him, he delves straightforwardly into her private life.

“I don’t think I’m entitled to tell you about my private life,” She answered him with a formal tone.

“There’s nothing private about having a boyfriend, so answer me, do you have a boyfriend, yes or no?” he commanded her.

God, was he commanding her? As if she was going to make it easy for him anyway.

She smirked and drew closer to him, “Why are you so interested in my boyfriend? Do you want to be my boyfriend?” she teased him innocently.

“Yes, if you want me to,” He answered straightforwardly, leaving Arianna dumbfounded.

“W-what?” She stuttered, a bit dazed by his confession right now.

“I would be your boyfriend only if you’re truly faithful to me,” He added immediately, “And of course, you’re single,”

What the fuck, Arianna blinked her eyes twice to ensure she wasn’t seeing and hearing things. How had their harmless conversation turned into this?

Arianna was flustered, a blush creeping up her face and she cleared her throat awkwardly. What the hell was this? Does this player think she’s easy to get? Just because he’s handsome doesn’t mean she’d fall under his spell – as far as he doesn’t try to seduce her. It wasn’t her fault that she’s a sucker for beautiful faces.

“You’re a good joker,” she laughed nervously.

But then, he said with all manner of seriousness, “I believe I wasn’t joking,”

“Huh?” her jaw dropped.

He went on, “I’m single and don’t go about wasting my sperm on unnecessary women, that means I’m not a womanizer. However, as a man, I do get relief from time to time. But then, I’ve never had a serious relationship and I’m suddenly interested in starting one with you,”

“Why me?” the question blurted out from her mouth.

“One, you’re beautiful, and don’t try saying that I’m only interested in your beauty, the eyes are first attracted to the subject before the rest of the body. Secondly, you appeal to me – you’re kind of interesting and trust me when I say hardly had any woman interested me,”

Whoah, she must be in a fairytale, Arianna wondered. What in the name of God was going on here. This all seem like some kind of drama.

“However, I live a thrilling lifestyle and I might not be that guy to bring you roses but my heart I’d offer to you and all money could ever buy,” He enticed her.

He lives a thrilling lifestyle? That meant he was a criminal and that was a huge turn-off for her.

“Sorry, but I’ll have to decline your offer, and really, it’s an honor that you even considered me that way,” she rejected him, respectfully.

His gaze narrowed at her suspiciously, “Why did you turn me down?”

Arianna threw her hand up, “I’m not just ready for any relationship and even if I do want to, how can I date someone I don’t even know his name?”

He suddenly smiled, “That’s not an issue, my lady,” he took her hand amid her reluctance and kissed it. He then slowly glanced up at her saying,

“You can call me Elijah,”
