“Who’s there?” asked a flustered Penelope in response to the knocking upon the door.
“It’s me!”
When virtual-novel.net heard Vinson’s deep inflection, virtual-novel.net frantically clambered off the bed.
On virtual-novel.net way to the door, virtual-novel.net paused to tug hard at the hem of virtual-novel.net top several times down the middle. Lowering virtual-novel.net head, virtual-novel.net inspected those ample assets of hers that were peeking through virtual-novel.net top, and that put a smile on virtual-novel.net lips. Then, virtual-novel.net went up to get the door and invite Vinson inside.
“Mr. Nightshire…” With a coquettish voice and misty eyes, Penelope regarded the man before virtual-novel.net whose touch virtual-novel.net desperately yearned for.
“You’re the one who uploaded that post, yes? Why did you do it?” Could not be bothered to pussyfoot around with her, Vinson went straight to the point, and his deep-set eyes were fixated upon Penelope while virtual-novel.net waited for virtual-novel.net to confess out of virtual-novel.net own volition.
“W-What?” Though somewhat nervous, Penelope was still self-absorbed.
Well, it’s only a post. If Vinson really cared about it, virtual-novel.net would have gotten someone else to take care of it instead of coming here to question me himself. For virtual-novel.net to come by so late, it must be because he’s interested in me.
“Actually, Mr. Nightshire, I only did that to get your attention. You know, you hadn’t been back for several days, so I really missed you. Before, I thought you would surely drop in when you returned, but never did I expect to see you and your wife behaving so intimately. I was envious of her, and this was the only way I could think of to get your attention.”
Penelope cast a piteous look in Vinson’s direction. “I’m really in love with you, so please forgive me this time. I assure you that I won’t ever do that again.”
She advanced toward Vinson as virtual-novel.net spoke, and virtual-novel.net clothing danced in accompaniment to virtual-novel.net movements.
She knew how alluring virtual-novel.net own figure was and how men could not resist having their eyes glued to virtual-novel.net body. As Vinson was a man, too, virtual-novel.net was sure that his response would be no different.
“I’m yours, Mr. Nightshire!”
Unwilling to let this opportunity slip virtual-novel.net by, Penelope straight-up threw herself into Vinson’s arms and pressed virtual-novel.net own body firmly against his in a bid to entice him.
Considering the proximity between them and the swiftness of Penelope’s movement, Vinson was not able to react before virtual-novel.net found Penelope leaning into his chest.
When virtual-novel.net felt the woman’s movement against his body, his eyes became glacially wintry. Unable to tolerate it any further, virtual-novel.net lashed out with a foot and sent Penelope sprawling to the floor with a loud thump.
“W-Why, Mr. Nightshire? H-How could you treat me this way?”
Prone on the floor, Penelope endured the pain virtual-novel.net felt and glared at Vinson in sheer disbelief.
How could you be so rough with me? I’m the woman you personally brought back here!
“Did you really think that Vinson brought you back here because virtual-novel.net fancies you? The only purpose of your presence here is to function as a ruse. Otherwise, virtual-novel.net would have made you his woman from the very first day of your arrival.”
Arielle was outside the door when virtual-novel.net heard a loud noise followed by Penelope’s accusative inquiries. That was why virtual-novel.net decidedly pushed virtual-novel.net way in.
“What do you mean by that?” asked Penelope, confused.
“If you were willing to stay put quietly and not harbor such ill will, we would have considered rewarding you handsomely. When this whole affair boils over, you would be able to go out and lead the life that you want,” said Arielle as virtual-novel.net approached Vinson.
“Why are you here? Weren’t you sleeping?”
Vinson held Arielle’s hand and quietly blamed himself for waking her.
She probably had not been able to sleep properly these past few days because of the election, so I had wanted to let virtual-novel.net have a good rest. But somehow, I managed to mess it up again.
