Chapter 10 I Want to Possess You Now

In the past, Halley had been disdainful of touching Amanda. After all, an old-fashioned and dull woman would not stir his sexual appeal. But Amanda gave him a lot of surprises today, and only then did he realize that she was like a piece of beautiful jade that could bloom with a dazzling brilliance if he carefully sculpted it. He stretched out his hand uncontrollably... But the beauty he missed so much in the next second avoided him. When his sexual intentions were rejected, Halley had a strong desire to possess her. "Amanda, don"t pretend anymore." He pulled off his tie. "You"ve always wanted me, haven"t you? The employees are off work, and no one will disturb us here." Amanda imagined the happy scene when Halley with Olinka; she felt disgusted. There was a knock on the door from outside. Amanda was about to push open her office door when someone knocked. "Miss Jewell, the CEO of the Byran Group, comes." ...Iverson Byran? What did he suddenly come here for? There was a hint of panic in Amanda"s voice. "Tell him that I"m off work now. I"ll see him another day..." "Why don"t you see him?" Halley looked at her with blame in his eyes. "Do you know how important the Byran Group"s project is to us?" "Well, do you really want me to see him now?" Amanda sneered. How could she forget that Halley was a hypocrite? She didn"t know what this man would look like when he discovered what had happened between her and Iverson. It was because of the awkwardness that Amanda wanted to turn Iverson down. But now, being stared at with dissatisfaction by Halley, she quickly wanted to take revenge. In the end, she invited Iverson inside. Because of his high status, Iverson was often accompanied by bodyguards and assistants. Although many staff were in the office, Amanda didn"t dare to look at Iverson. However, Iverson"s aura was so powerful that no one could ignore it. "Mr. Byran, that project..." Halley said with a fawning smile. Iverson crossed his long legs and leaned lazily on the sofa. His exquisite suit wrapped around his slender waist. His perfect figure, coupled with his expressionless face, made him as dazzling as a god. He raised his hand and interrupted, "I"m looking for Miss Jewell." With that, he looked at Amanda, who was trying her best to keep a low profile. Iverson"s eyes were as sharp as knives as if he could instantly analyze Amanda"s thoughts. "Okay, fine. I know Mr. Byran loves quiet, so I won"t disturb you for the time being." Halley stood up as if he didn"t care at all. "Amanda, you must cooperate with him." The others left, and the office became quiet again. Amanda realized in an instant that she was wrapped in Iverson"s coldness. "Haven"t you proposed a divorce to him yet?" As Iverson asked angrily, Amanda met his gaze in resignation. "I"m sorry, but I have my plans." "Miss Jewell, I"m not very patient. Shall I help you?" Amanda"s temples throbbed. Even though Iverson was just sitting there, his aggressive aura still made it hard for Amanda to breathe. She wanted to run away. "Actually, I..." Before she could finish her words, her slender and fair wrist was suddenly grabbed by Iverson"s big palm. Iverson"s palm felt warm. Amanda looked up and saw his handsome face rapidly enlarging in front of her. Only then did she realize that he was already up. Iverson grabbed her wrist with one hand and put his other hand on the sofa"s armrest, trapping her in his perfect world. His clean and cold aura immediately surrounded her. "Did I fail to satisfy you that night?" Iverson raised an eyebrow and asked in a flat tone. Amanda was startled and looked nervously at the tightly shut office door. "What? Are you afraid he"ll know? Or do you think my identity isn"t good enough for you?" He loosened his grip on her wrist, but in the next second, he pinched her thin chin. "I hope you can give me a satisfactory answer." "How could I not?" Out of nervousness, Amanda instinctively voiced his true thoughts. Last night, she had passed out under his strong "assault." She had never known that a man could have such a strong endurance. Countless filthy images flashed through her mind, and Amanda"s face flushed red. She stood up all of a sudden. "It"s my matter. I"ll take care of it myself. As for my offense against Mr. Byran, let us settle it separately." So what if Iverson"s condition was good? Halley had already broken her heart, and how could she trust other men? "Oh? How are you going to settle the score then, Miss Jewell?" Iverson asked as he straightened his back, both hands tucked into the pockets of his suit. Why was there no end to this? Amanda pinched the bridge of her nose. She had never thought that Iverson, such a high and mighty man, would be so... conservative! "Or do you want to use delaying tactics to shake me off?" Iverson narrowed his eyes, which were filled with anger. Amanda"s lips twitched, but she couldn"t give him a definite answer. Whether it was for the sake of the project with the Byran Group or Iverson"s power, she did not dare to offend him at will. Oh no! She seemed to have gotten into trouble! "Amanda Jewell?" Just as she was feeling conflicted, Iverson suddenly grabbed her shoulder and forced her to face him. He bent down and put his thin lips close to her ear. His deep voice was as pleasant as a cello. "If you dare to make fun of me, I"ll possess you here!"
