After what seemed like an eternity, Michael rested on top of me while panting heavily.
I could feel his heart racing due to the vigorous exercise we had just done.
After a while, he propped himself up on his hands and looked down at me.
“Did it feel good?” Still flushed from our passionate entanglement earlier on, it made his question sound extra amorous.
A blush of embarrassment flashed across my cheeks immediately as I turned to face away from him. How was I supposed to answer such a straightforward question?
“Nope,” I answered.
That was the only answer I could give as I couldn’t possibly have told him that I enjoyed it. That would be too embarrassing.
“Really? You were moaning in pleasure just now. Were you faking it?”
Michael was not upset with my answer. Instead, he cocked his brows as the corners of his lips curled into a sexy smile. In addition to his topless body, he looked extremely seductive.
After hearing what Michael said, my face turned as red as a ripe tomato and I was too shy to continue looking at him.
Was there anything that the man did not dare to say? Who would be able to fake those moans in the middle of doing it?
“It’s getting late. We should get up and get ready for work,” I said in a fluster. Michael’s intent gaze was making me uncomfortable.
I wanted to push him away, but he did not budge at all.
“Why are you in such a hurry? I’m the boss, yet I’m still here. Why are you so eager to go to work?”
I glared at Michael after he said that, feeling a little angry. We had already finished doing the deed. What else did he want? Was he thinking of doing it again?
“We should hurry if you want to do it one more time.”
I opened my arms and closed my eyes, waiting for the man to take action. It must be because he was not satisfied. So, he did not want to let me go.
Michael froze for a second before giving me a puzzled look. After he processed my words, he raised his brows and replied, “It seems like I did not satisfy you even after trying so hard just now. Well, I really can’t tell that you have such a high drive. Does it mean that I need to work harder to satisfy you in the future?”
I resisted the urge to give him two tight slaps after hearing his reply. Did I say anything to imply that my sex drive is high? Indeed, he had a strange way of thinking.
“I just thought that you’re not satisfied. Otherwise, why would you refuse to get off me? Do you know how heavy you are?”
Since he wasn’t planning on doing it again, why was he still laying on top of me? Did he really not know that I could hardly bear his weight?
“If there is time, I can pleasure you again. But, I think we’ll have to wait till tonight,” Michael said as he got out of bed.
I heaved a long sigh of relief after he left. I got dressed as well.
I intended to take the subway. However, since Michael insisted that he would fetch me to work, I gladly accepted the offer.
He was driving slowly towards the office. When the car stopped at a red light, he took out a jewelry box from his pocket.
“This is a present for you,” he said as he tossed it into my arms.
I noticed that Michael had an awkward expression on his face. He was looking straight at the red light, avoiding my gaze intentionally.
I looked at him in surprise and opened the jewelry box at once. What greeted my sight was an exquisite diamond necklace.
The piece of jewelry was stunning as it sparkled under the rays of the sun. More importantly, it was a gift from Michael. However, I could not accept such an expensive gift.
“Thanks for the present but it’s too expensive. Please take it back as I can’t accept it.”
The diamond necklace must have cost him at least tens of thousands. How could I accept it when I already owe him so much?
I closed the box and handed it back to Michael. Diamonds were a girl’s best friend. However, I really should not accept any gifts from Michael anymore, let alone an expensive one.
“I won’t take back what I have given. If you don’t want it, I’ll throw it out of the window right now.”
Michael’s smile disappeared after I rejected his gift. Right then, he was about to throw the box out of the window.
“No! How can you throw this away!”
How could the man throw away a diamond necklace that cost tens of thousands without feeling anything at all?
“Since you’ve rejected it, there’s no point in me keeping it. Do you expect me to wear it myself?” Michael replied with a cold expression.
Obviously, he was angry that I had rejected his present.
“You can give it to your girlfriend. You don’t have to get rid of it. After all, it’s such an expensive item.”
I lowered my head as I said the word “girlfriend” in dejection.
“Anna, from now onward, you’re not allowed to mention the word ‘girlfriend’ in front of me!”
Michael’s icy voice echoed in the air as he glared at me coldly, obviously upset.
How could his emotions change so quickly? Was I wrong to say that?
Emma was indeed his girlfriend. Why was I not allowed to mention it?
“So—”
Michael interrupted my speech, “You have only two choices now—accept the present, or I’ll throw it away!”
