Chapter 108


    Before ra could utter a word, Anders, who had been standing behind her, grabbed her wrist


    and red coldly atn. “Sorry, Mr. Hayes, but that’s a no–go. We’ll have to pass on your…


    ‘generosity.” With a firm tug, he pulled ra to his side, shielding her like a guardian angel.


    A sting shot throughn’s heart, and his eyes darkened with an added chill. “Did you really think I


    came here to talk shop with you today?”


    He slowly approached ra, leaned in, and whispered with a low chuckle in her ear. “If you don’t


    y along tonight, believe me, I’ll trash Anders‘ joint!”


    ra looked up to meetn’s smoldering gaze. She knew he wouldn’t let her off the hook that


    easily. Biting her lip in determination, she facedn with a steely look. “Dancing with you, Mr.


    Hayes, would be my pleasure. I trust you’re a man of your word.”


    Anders immediately stepped in front of her. “ra, he’s baiting you. You’re not dancing with him.”


    ra lifted her head to meet his gaze. “Anders, trust me, I know what I’m doing.”


    Their exchange left Mr. Marco brimming with suspicion. Pointing atn, he asked, “Have you met


    them before?”


    ra shook her head quickly. “Marco, we’re not. Since Mr. Hayes is interested in discussing a


    partnership, shouldn’t we extend our warmest hospitality?”


    “This girl is precious to me. Don’t you dare mistreat her,” Marco warned.


    This dance should have been reserved for the Hayes Corporation’s anniversary celebration.


    On that day, ra was supposed to ben’s girlfriend. But she betrayed him, sneaking off to


    the rooftop for a secret rendezvous with Anders.


    !


    Recalling all that had transpired,n’s gaze upon ra turned frosty. He leaned in, his breath


    warming her ear as his husky and spellbinding voice broke through her defenses.


    “ra, you owe me this. Don’t pretend you’re the victim here.”


    ra’s cool gaze met his, her voice calm and even. “After tonight, can I consider my debt paid? Will


    you leave me and Anders alone then?”


    “Do you really think I’m the type to be cuckolded and swallow my pride? If you want me to let you


    and Anders off the hook, it’s not impossible.”


    He leaned down and bit her earlobe, his voice a low growl, “Spend the night with me.”


    ra stopped in her tracks, anger ring in her striking eyes. n, in your dreams!”


    “You’ve loved him for seven years, haven’t you? What’s one more sacrifice? Besides, it’s not like


    we haven’t been together before. One more time won’t make a difference. Think it over.”


    Hearing this, ra’s hatred intensified. She shovedn away, her eyes zing. n, you’re not


    only blind but

    heartless. You want to sleep with me? Go to hell!”


    She grabbed a ss of wine from the table and threw it in his face. Then she stormed off without


    looking


    back.

    The red wine dripped downn’s smooth cheek, trailing along his chiseled jawline into his stark


    corbone. Unustomed to such disrespect,n immediately went after ra, intent on dragging


    her back for a proper punishment.


    But a shadowy figure blocked his path.
