Dear Sweetheart Chapter 272 Who Do You Think You Are Curtis gazed at Rayna with his sharp eyes. âSo you didnât sign the contract because you want to distance yourself from me?â
âNo,â she answered.
âYou donât look sincere at all when you said that, Rayna.â
Knowing there was no winning against him in an argument, she wrapped her arms around his neck and kissed him.
Alas, she tricked him with this little gimmick.
After the kiss ended, her lips appeared even more alluring. Slightly panting, she repeated, âThis is Mr. Xavierâs fault, okay? He was the one who forced me to sign the contract. Do you understand what Iâm saying?â
Curtis gently rubbed her lips and chuckled. âWho taught you these indecent techniques?â
âAre they indecent?â Rayna was stunned as she replied reflexively, âThat doesnât sound right. Kristie told me ninety percent of all men love this technique the most and that the effect will be stronger if perfume were applied...â
When she saw his amused look, she shut her mouth. Crap... This is so embarrassing! I canât believe I fell for his trap.
He gave the driver another address. Not long after, the car stopped in front of her residential area. Then, she was sent out of the vehicle dumbfounded.
âGo home and rest well,â he uttered before shutting the door.
The car drove away just a second later.
As Rayna stared at the taxiâs taillight, she was still rooted to her spot with a puzzled look. He just... left?
The cocktail reception was almost over when the clock struck ten.
During the whole night, Jasmine had been dealing with guests, so she didnât know about the incident that occurred in the sky garden. When she saw there werenât many guests left in the living room, she packed her things and was ready to leave.
âMs. Sanders.â A middle-aged man suddenly approached her. He seemed slightly chubby because he wasnât tall.
She recognized him.
With a smile, she greeted, âAh, Mr. Cook. I see you havenât left yet. How about I get a car for you?â
âIâm not in a hurry to leave as I want to talk about that advertisement project with you, Ms. Sanders.â Benjamin Cook grinned. His eager look kept circling around her body.
Jasmine remained collected with a smile. âDidnât you say you found a better advertising company, Mr. Cook?â
âIn terms of the design, no company can do better than Sanders Group. Youâre beautiful, and you have vast connections, Ms.
Sanders. So, in the end, I decided that I wanted to work with you.â
âIs that so?â
He nodded, leaned toward her, and whispered, âThere are too many people here. I want to discuss this matter with you in private, Ms. Sanders.â
Of course, Jasmine was aware of what Benjamin meant by that. Just as she was about to reject his âofferâ coldly, she unintentionally saw Theodore leaving a private room at the side with Jeremy.
A sharp look flashed past her pretty eyes before she promptly revealed an amicable smile at him. Not only that, she proactively leaned closer to him. âSure. Let me book a room, and we can have a chat inside. Does that sound good to you?â
Benjamin felt heated when he inhaled her body fragrance. âI knew you would understand me, Ms. Sanders!â
When the two of them left the banquet hall, he inappropriately touched her body.
Theodoreâs expression turned frighteningly grim when he saw that.
âSeems like theyâre heading upstairs.â Jeremy was intrigued. âBut there are only rooms upstairs. Is Ms. Sanders taking the guest to a room for a chat?â
Theodore shot him a cold glance. âWhatâs that got to do with you?â
âLook at the guy. Heâs not even five foot seven. What an unpleasant sight of a man.â Jeremy shrugged. âMs. Sanders is such a beautiful woman. Any man would be moved by her beauty.â
Ignoring him, Theodore strode away.
When the duo arrived at the bottom floor, they saw a taxi thoughtfully waiting for them at the hotel entrance.
Just as Jeremy was about to enter the vehicle, he turned back to face Theodore. âAre you really okay with Ms. Sanders spending time with a man like him? You should know that, for some men, once they get into the mood, they can do anything.â
The look in Theodoreâs eyes darkened when he heard that. Daily new chapters upload Only On Alaniniz(dot)com Then he turned his head back and looked at the hotel, feeling dejected. He cursed under his breath, âD*mmit! What exactly do I owe her?â
Upon throwing the smoldering cigarette to the ground, he stomped on it. Without delay, he twirled around and strode back into the hotel.
With a smile, Jeremy shook his head. âWhy canât he just say what he thinks?â
Jasmine had booked a room with the hotel. Just as she brought Benjamin into the room, he eagerly locked the door.
She chuckled when she saw that. âLook at how eager you are, Mr. Cook.â
âHow can I calm down when I have a great opportunity to âchatâ with a beauty like you, Ms. Sanders?â Giggling, he dashed toward the bar, took out a bottle of red wine, and popped it open.
As Jasmine mumbled about how she was feeling tired, she strolled into the bedroom.
Once inside, she covertly left the room and saw Benjamin removing something from his pocket. He threw a pill into his mouth before throwing another into the red wine bottle. As he did that, he kept licking his lips and smiling sinisterly.
It gave her goosebumps when she saw that. How disgusting! Does Mr. Cook think heâs outstanding just because he has a listed company? He intentionally refused to collaborate with Sanders Group in the past, yet now heâs trying to play hard to get! If I didnât see Theodore earlier, I wouldâve felt too disgusted to look at him even a second longer!
Soon, Benjamin brought the two glasses of red wine into the bedroom. He felt as though his body was on fire and licked his lips when he saw Jasmineâs fair, slender legs as she lay on the couch.
When he arrived next to her, he handed a glass of red wine to her. âHave some wine, Ms. Sanders.â
âThank you.â As she pursed her lips into a smile, she grabbed the glass. However, she didnât drink it, even after he emptied his glass.
Then, Jasmine placed the glass on the coffee table. âI donât feel so good right now. I donât want to drink.â
âItâs fine if you donât want to drink.â Benjaminâs voice was gentle, but he was gazing at her like a wolf.
The doorâs locked. While I may be a bit short, I still have the strength of a man. Besides, now that Iâve swallowed the drug, even if Jasmine doesnât drink her wine, I can still subdue her all the same! Licking his lips, he leaned closer to her. âAbout that advertisement. Iâll pay for the cost, but you still get to enjoy fifty percent of the profits. What do you think?â
She appeared shocked. âAre you saying youâre going to put Sanders Group in charge of the advertisement planning, pay for it, and when the profits for the perfume roll in, youâre going to split fifty percent with Sanders Group?â
âThatâs what I meant.â Benjamin grinned with narrowed eyes and touched Jasmineâs hand. âI admire your capabilities, so I want to establish a long-term collaboration with Sanders Group. Thus, weâre going to share what we earn equally.â
âThat doesnât sound too good.â Biting her lip, she removed her hand away from his. âThe outside world will no doubt speculate about our relationship. What if your wife comes knocking on my door and claims that I have seduced you?â
âI call the shots in my family. She wonât even look left if I tell her not to.â He could feel his body burning up due to the effects of the drug. âAs long as you can comfort me, Iâll give you anything.â
Licking his lips, he pounced toward her.
Jasmine speedily stood to the side and smiled. âAre you drunk, Mr. Cook?â
âI am drunk. I want you, darling.â Again, Benjamin licked his lips while looking very wretched. Just as he tried to get up from the couch, she stepped on his body.
Her high heels were directly pressing on his crotch.
A chill ran down his spine as he shrieked in pain. His body was convulsing, and he felt as though someone had severed his limb tendons. He couldnât muster any strength at all.
Staring down at him, Jasmine smirked.
âHow dare you play hard to get with me when your companyâs garbage?â She slapped him again and again. âDo you think Iâm a gullible little girl?â
Glaring at her, Benjamin stuttered, âY-You...â
âDo you really think you deserve to sleep with me?â She stepped on him even harder with a sneer. âYou should look at yourself in the mirror and see just how ugly you are! You canât even be compared to a strand of hair on my manâs head!â
