Chapter 3 Getting Herself Into A Trap

Chapter 3 Getting Herself Into A Trap

Angelina was really impressed.

She had just humbly asked Keith to teach her in the room, the all-powerful assistant had already arranged for the room key to be delivered.

Angelina wondered why the assistant could suddenly appear out of nowhere.

Keith smoothly pulled off his tie with one hand.

After undoing it, he handed it to Angelina.

Angelina was speechless. "Thank you, Mr. Fuller. It's so nice of you."

She didn't want to hold onto the "hot potato," but she couldn't throw it away.

She felt that she had gotten herself into a trap.

It was so embarrassing.

Keith looked at Angelina, a barely noticeable smile crossing his lips.

"I want my suit jacket."

Upon that, Niles took the suit jacket from the waiter's hand and handed it to Keith.

The next second, Angelina was draped in a loose black jacket that covered her superior figure completely.

Niles knew that he couldn't be a third wheel at this point. "Mr. Fuller, I'll go back to my room to handle some work. I hope you and Miss..."

The word "Jefferson" almost slipped out of Niles's mouth.

Noticing that Keith had no intention of showing that he knew Angelina, Niles quickly changed his words.

"I hope you and this young lady have a wonderful night."

Keith gave a faint response and then took Angelina's wrist and led her out, heading toward the suite on the top floor as she had requested.

Angelina was dumbfounded.

Things unfolded a bit weirdly, but it was hard to pinpoint what exactly was weird.

Just when Angelina was just about to make up an excuse to leave, a drunken fat man stumbled toward her, intending to make a move on her.

While keeping his grip on her wrist, Keith gently shifted her to a different place.

Because of his height, he practically held Angelina from behind when he moved her.

This gentlemanly and secure movement could make any girl's heart flutter.

The drunk man was intimidated by Keith's oppressive gaze and broke out in a cold sweat, no longer daring to make advances.

The elevator door closed, shutting out the noise outside.

Perhaps sensing Angelina's distraction, Keith asked in a casual tone, "Do you just want to learn how to tie a tie?"

Angelina blinked. "Mr. Fuller, I'll learn whatever you teach me."

"Oh, you're so obedient." Keith stared at her with an intriguing gaze and asked in a low and husky voice, "What if I don't let you go after you've learned?"

Through the elevator's mirror, Angelina could see his noble appearance.

He was so handsome, attractive, and gentlemanly.

If he wasn't a scumbag, he would really be a perfect man.

...

With a click, the door to the suite was closed.

Something seemed to be inflamed in Angelina's chest as the door closed.

Keith held her waist and pressed her against the side of the entrance, wrapping her in his arms.

Angelina bumped into his chest. It seemed that she could feel the pounding of their hearts, and she was unsure whose heart was racing faster.

They were so close to each other that even their breaths mixed.

Keith gazed down at her and asked in a husky voice, "Where's my tie?"

Upon that, Angelina exclaimed inwardly, "Oh, my God! His voice is so alluring."

Her scalp tingled, and a ripple of excitement ran through her as she listened to his tempting voice.

"I...."

Keith gently tucked a strand of hair from her cheek behind her ear.

He chuckled softly. "Don't want to learn anymore?"

To keep herself from falling for this charming man, Angelina exercised all of her willpower. "You smell smoke and alcohol. I don't like it."

Keith's eyes narrowed slightly. In a low and husky voice, he said, "I'll go freshen up. Will you wait for me outside?"

Angelina's voice was barely audible as she agreed.

Keith released his grip on her waist and then took the long tie away from her hand.

Angelina couldn't figure out what he was going to do and wondered, "Isn't he going to freshen up?"

The next second, Keith wrapped her right wrist twice with the silky tie and made it into a beautiful bow.

Angelina's spine tingled as she looked at the bow on her wrist, and she felt like falling into a fluffy cloud.

When she saw him close the bathroom door, Angelina's heart was still pounding, and her heart couldn't help but flutter.

She thought to herself, "Holy crap! I almost got seduced. Wake up, Angelina! He is either a scheming man or a jerk who forgets those angelic bitches after being flirted with by you. What a scumbag! Bastard!"

After confirming her strong stance against arranged marriages, Angelina left the top suite without any hesitation.

After entering the bathroom, Keith took off his wristwatch and casually placed it on the counter.

Upon hearing the faint sound of the door opening, Keith did not go out to stop Angelina but instead continued to undress.

There was still a lipstick mark left by her on the collar of his shirt.

Keith gently rubbed his fingertip over it, as if he could feel her soft touch.

After a long while, he chuckled softly. "You naughty girl."

...

"Mr. Fuller, Miss Jefferson has safely returned to her residence."

"Okay."

Niles should go back to have a rest, but he couldn't help but ask curiously, "Mr. Fuller, did Miss Jefferson not recognize your voice?"

Keith's hand, which was tying his bathrobe, froze for a moment as he glanced at Niles with cold eyes. Belongs to (N)ôvel/Drama.Org.

Niles felt a chill down his spine and said, "Mr. Fuller, please rest early! I'll go back first. Good night."

"Wait a minute!" ordered Keith.

Before Niles could take a step, he abruptly stopped. "Is there anything else I can help you with, Mr. Fuller?"

Keith's tone was very calm. "Go and find out her recent schedules."

"Yes, Mr. Fuller."

...

Angelina wrapped herself in a thin bath towel at the Starlight Bay. Her face flushed after she was soaked in a rose and milk bath, looking exceptionally charming.

She picked up her phone and saw many unread messages.

There of them were from Missy.

"Sweetie, how were things going? Did Ishmael get furious because of your flirtation and decide to cancel the engagement for his innocent girlfriend?"

"I'm really curious about it and can't wait to learn about it. Please give me a reply as soon as possible."

"An emoji of excitedly shouting."

There were also two text messages from Janet, Angelina's agent.

"Come on! I spent a lot of effort getting you to attend a brand's event, but you actually left halfway through? The company is not willing to suppress the negative trending topic about you, so you'll have to face the consequences and accept the curses."

"By the way, Director Gates is preparing for a new play. I've arranged an audition for you as the third female lead. You'll be having dinner with investors this Saturday night."

The agent also sent a specific character introduction. Clearly, it was a malicious supporting role.

Angelina rose to fame from the start because she did a good job in acting a ruthless and malicious supporting role in a popular play. Her performance was so impressive that some netizens still criticized her for even a long time after the ending of the play.

Some extreme fans of the play and jealous female celebrities even spread rumors online that Angelina had plastic surgery and slept with someone for her success.

The company decided to disregard the rumors because they thought the rumors could bring Angelina to public attention.

However, all the fake rumors suddenly disappeared overnight somehow. Angelina had thought things would settle down, but...
