Chapter 210 Desire To Conquer


    J soon forgot her encounter with Kent, thinking it was a trivial episode, and carried on with her


    work. However, that evening, as J walked out of thepany, she was shocked to see Kent''s


    sports car parked at the gate.


    J''s colleagues saw Kent getting out of the car and began whispering to each other.


    "Hey! Who is that man? Gosh, he is so handsome!"


    "Is he waiting for his girlfriend? He looks like Kent Perkins!"


    "You mean Kent Perkins from the famous Perkins Bank?"


    J was speechless. She wanted to sneak away. Unfortunately, Kent had seen her and was


    walking toward her.


    "Miss Lind, you were busy in the morning. Do you have time to have dinner with me now?" He


    walked towards her. Kent was wearing a nnel suit; his coat was casually slung over his arm. He


    looked like a real gentleman.


    J hated the confidence in his tone.


    She stopped and looked at him. "How do you know my name?"


    Kent thrust his hands in his pockets and looked into her eyes. "It''s easy. I''ll tell you during dinner."


    "Sorry, I don''t have the time," J hissed through her teeth.


    At that moment, the setting sun cast an orange hue on her face, softening her angelic features. She


    looked breathtaking even without makeup.Content ? N?velDrama.Org 2024.


    After a moment''s pause, Kent returned to his senses and asked patiently, "Do you have any specific


    restaurant in mind that you''d like to try?"


    J was speechless. ''Did he not hear me?''


    "I don''t want to have dinner with you, Mr. Perkins. I hope I don''t see you ever again," she said


    bluntly.


    Before Kent could utter another word, she turned around and left.


    J thought that Kent would stop following her. After all, someone like him, born into a wealthy


    family, would have pride and self-respect.


    However, the next morning, Kent was standing outside the Larson Group building again with arge


    bouquet of roses.


    J looked behind him and saw the driver holding boxes of expensive gifts.


    J ran away as soon as she saw him. However, Kent stopped her before she could escape.


    His face softened when he saw the anger zing in J''s eyes. "Miss Lind, don''t worry. I just want


    to give you these," he said, handing the gifts to her.


    "I don''t want it, Mr. Perkins. Stop pestering me; it''s disgusting!" J snapped as she ruthlessly


    pushed the bouquet away.


    She couldn''t control her anger anymore.


    Seeingj storm away, Kent burst outughing.


    He somehow found her adorable when she got angry. Poor J was oblivious that her constant


    rejection had only aroused Kent''s desire to conquer her.


    Kent always went after the things he couldn''t have ever since he was a child. He liked the


    challenge. He had a kick out of the things that were out of his reach.


    Kent sighed and threw the bouquet into the trash can on the roadside.


    There were thousands of ways to get a girl, and Kent was sure at least one such trick would help


    him get J.


    The repeated failure made him realize that constant persuasion wouldn''t work on her.


    He had to find a way where she couldn''t refuse his offer.


    A smile emerged on his face. He immediately picked up his phone and made a call.


    "Yes, this is Kent. I want you to customize new uniforms for our bank staff. Give the project to the


    Larson Group, and ask their best designer to do the job for us."


    Kent had never failed in getting what he wanted. This time, he was determined to get J.
