Chapter 555: Chapter 555

Ethel froze when facing the accusation. “Well, little girl, how can I be blamed for this? Elijah is the one who has scandal with you, ok? Where do I mess with you?”

“Who asked you to leave halfway yesterday? I was almost trapped in the restaurant!” Esther was furious when she thought about yesterday’s joke of calling Elijah as her husband turned to a fact today.

“Well, I’m really sorry about yesterday as there was an emergency for me. I’ll repay you another day, by the way, what’s wrong with you? The reporter said that you and Elijah got married?” Ethel didn’t believe that it was true.

“It’s all scandal, scandal, do you understand?” Esther wouldn’t admit it as it was a forced marriage. She didn’t even go to the registration and she got the marriage certificate just like that, so it didn’t count! She wouldn’t admit it even if she died.

Ethel looked at her then looked at the large group of reporters that were blocked outside the lobby, “This story doesn’t seem groundless!”

“Ethel, it’s all because of you!” Esther couldn’t control herself cursing in a low voice.

“How did I mess with you again?” Ethel felt so wronged.

“Miss Price, the president wants you to go to his office on the eighty-eighth floor!” Meanwhile, the receptionist suddenly showed up in front of them.

“Me?” Esther pointed at herself. “How did he know I am here?”

“Yes, the president called and asked you to go up!”

“I’m not going!” Esther refused directly.

Both Ethel and Mrs. Tyson at the reception desk froze as she dared to go against the president’s order, did she know the consequences?

Esther looked at Mrs. Tyson’s puzzled eyes and only then she realized she had overreacted, after all, how could she disobey the president’s order.

“Ooh...alright, thanks Mrs. Tyson, I’ll go right now!”

But inside her heart, she was cursing Elijah as she didn’t expect that he would know that she was here immediately.

“I’m going too!” Ethel was expecting something interesting.

“Let’s go together!” Both of them went into the lift.

When they reached the eighty-eighth floor, the secretary blocked two of them. “Mr. Kirby, the president said that he would only see Miss Price alone!”

“Why?” Ethel froze.

The secretary smiled faintly. “This is the president’s order!”

Esther shrugged her shoulders, “I’m going in!”

But when she walked to the entrance of the president’s office, she was stunned suddenly as her heart tightened until the door opened. A tall man grabbed and dragged her inside the room.

Ethel took the opportunity to shout, “Elijah, I’m here too!”

But the answer he got was a thud of the door closing.

The secretary smiled faintly, shrugged her shoulders, and returned to her place.

Ethel murmured. “Damn, he must have been fallen in love, this is real!”

Esther who was dragged inside the room was stunned as the tall figure with a familiar aura enveloped her. And fierce kisses made her breathe hard.

Elijah sniffed the fresh fragrance of her mouth, kissing her again and again. His breath hit her face. His eagerness and tenderness made Esther’s whole body tremble.

“Ooh...” Esther pushed him away because he kissed her as soon as she entered, “Pervert, Elijah!”

“Call me husband!” He gasped and hugged her.

Esther struggled as she wanted to avoid his embrace, but she didn’t expect him to carry her to the sofa. She squirmed up and down in his arms as she wanted to avoid and with a soft voice, she said, “Pervert! You are a pervert! You are a madman...”

“Don’t move, babe, otherwise you’ll suffer the consequences...” Elijah’s voice was so soft.

“Pervert!” Esther dared not to move again but looked serious and her voice muffled. “Tell me, why did you call me here?”

“Are you besieged by the reporters?” He asked, “What did you say?”

“I didn’t say anything!” She had been facing the flash lamp and kept her mouth shut.

“Why don’t you admit that you are Mrs. Perry?”

“Why should I admit it?” She struggled, “Put me down!”

It wasn’t that appropriate to sit on his lap while talking.

Elijah released her, “Why didn’t you admit it?”

“I won’t admit it even if I die! I’m not willing to be Mrs. Perry!” Esther lifted her chin and glanced at Elijah arrogantly. What else could he do since she disdained to be Mrs. Perry!

Elijah didn’t say anything but just said, “Come home for dinner as this is an order from Grandpa! Winnie and Hudson will also be there!”

“I’m not going!” Esther shook her head subconsciously. She didn’t know how to face Hudson, especially now that she was married to this damn Elijah Perry for no reason!

She was angry, was she supposed to go just because his grandfather asked them to go back for dinner?

“If you don’t go, you will always be bothered by my grandpa in return, I’m afraid that you won’t be able to stand it then!” Elijah warned kindly.

“What do you mean?” Esther froze.

“If you don't go, I'm afraid that next time, you won't be just besieged by reporters!”

“You mean that the reporters today were under the order of your grandfather?” Esther jumped onto Elijah’s executive chair and sat down while placing both her feet on the desk, acting as if she was the boss.

Elijah raised his head and looked at her. He was lost a while as usually he was the one who gives orders and when he looked at her sitting on his chair, he just felt this girl was so cute, “Yes!”

“Your grandfather is so boring!” Esther pursed her lips. “Why are you calling me here?”

“Didn’t I tell you to stay at home?” He said.

“I’m here to settle a score with Ethel!” She lifted her gaze indifferently and glanced at Elijah who had a gentle face, “I hate you for keeping track of my whereabouts!”

Elijah was faintly stunned then went speechless.

Suddenly, Esther was attracted by a cute cartoon desk in the office. “Oh my god, whose kid’s desk is this! It is so cute!”

Elijah took a glance. That was the desk which he asked someone to send it here today and it was for her. She probably had less than three hours of classes per day in the university and he wouldn’t let her play around for the rest of the time. He just wanted her to finish her homework under his sight.

Esther simply walked to the desk which had a cute rabbit cartoon pattern on it and sat down on the chair which had the same pattern too. “This is fun!”

She was still a kid after all!

Elijah sighed, “Do you like it?”

“Well, it is quite funny!” Esther said. “Why is it in your office? Isn’t it kind of not matching with your office?”

“It’s for you!” He said.

“For me?” She was stunned.

He walked to her and leaned on the desk while glancing at her. “You are my child!”

Esther’s face blushed, “Are you taking advantage of me?”

He pulled her up and embraced her tightly for a while without saying anything. There was a great desire in his mind to say something, but in the end, he was just hugging her. Yet, Esther heard a heart leaping against his chest.

“Hey! Let me go!” Esther coldly pushed his body away, but he didn’t want to let her go, instead, he held her, even tighter domineeringly then made himself sit on the cartoon chair. Esther once again sat on his lap.

Esther frowned at his face uncomprehendingly as she tried to see his intention from his face, but she couldn’t.

He looked at her too, but his voice was soft, “What are you looking at?”

He was always holding her so why shouldn’t she always look at him?

Esther suddenly spoke, “You prepared this desk in your office not because you want me to be with you even after class, right?”

His eyes showed a hint of appreciation. “Thank God, you are not too stupid!”

“Why?” She asked again in a silly way. “I don’t want to see you!”

“You have to put up with me even if you don't want to see me!” He said.

“You are unreasonable!” Esther pouted to show her complaint. “Although the table is cute, and I like it very much but I feel sick at the sight of you!”

Elijah raised his eyebrows, “Do I make you lose your appetite?”

She looked at him, although he was very good-looking, not the look that would cause people to lose appetite, she still ignored her conscience and said, “Yes!”

“Aren’t wives supposed to be with their husbands?” He asked rhetorically.

“Who is your wife?”

“You!”

“I’m not! You are the one who forces me to do so! Do you think you are powerful? Do everyone have to listen to you and obey you?”

“I don’t think I am...”

“Then why do you keep imposing your wishes on others?”

“Will I still be considered as imposing my wishes on you if you obey my order obediently?” Esther looked at him in anger.

It felt like he was really sick as he kept on using the question as an answer to reply to me! “The question is why I have to listen to you! I don't want!”

Elijah stared at her coldly as he didn’t feel that there was a problem with his answer. Who would Esther listen to if she didn’t listen to him! “It’s fine for others not to listen to me, but not you!”

“Why?”

“Because you are my wife!”

“I’m not!”

“You are!”

“Is you who force me! You a vile man!” She was annoyed when she thought that he applied the marriage certificate by himself, “I’m not someone you can bully or order around, don’t try to frame me!”

Elijah was furious and his face looked serious when he looked at her little imperious face. He stared at her for a long time but finally decided to put up with her and said, “Let’s go for dinner first!”

“I’m not going!” Esther obstinately twisted her head which meant that she didn’t want to listen to him! She wanted to pass the message to him that he should stop acting like a boss in front of her!

“Esther...” Elijah said in a low voice, there was no more annoyance in his eyes and he sounded doting. The anger provoked by Esther had long disappeared when he looked at the pair of big eyes on her face which were staring at him provocatively.

He reached out and wrapped his hand tightly around her but when Esther was about to refuse, he embraced her even tighter and said, “Esther, no one can refuse my order! Be obedient and don’t make me angry!”

“You are the one who is making me angry!” Esther was so angry inside that she felt that no matter what she said, he would just ignore everything and send her back to where she was!

He lowered his head to seek her lips, but she dodged left and right to refuse and said, “I don’t want you to kiss me, I don’t love you and I hate you...”

But she was still kissed by Elijah. The tip of his tongue reached in and tangled with hers. After a while, he was finally willing to let her go with a gasp, “Esther, do you really hate me?”

“Humph!” Esther turned her face away and asked herself. Did she really hate him?

The thought gave her some headache, so she gritted her teeth. “Yes, just hate, I hate you to death!”

Elijah looked at the time and it was almost time, “Let’s go shopping for some clothes!”

“Why do we need to buy clothes?”

“To go home for dinner!”

“Why do we have to buy clothes when we go home for dinner?”

“Esther, why do you have so many questions?”

“Humph!” She simply shut up, but she was still pouting.

He leaned forward and kissed her lips again, “No pouting, from now on, I will kiss you for every pouting!”
