The hot mist within the shower created quite a steamy atmosphere.
Ace towered over Joanna as he pinned her to the wall and murmured, "Is this close enough for you? Can you see everything clearly now?"
Joanna felt light-headed, her face burning up in embarrassnt. She tried breaking free from his grasp, huffing in rage. "Let go of , Moran! I know you’re a homosexual, so drop the act!"
"Homosexual?" Ace narrowed his eyes, visibly confused. ’How did this crazy woman co to the conclusion that I like n?’
"Aren’t you?" Joanna decided to take this opportunity to ask more questions. "Is your lover really Mr. X, the largest shareholder of Crystal Group? How long have you guys been dating? Was Alice just a scapegoat for your secret relationship?"
Ace stared at her incredulously, unsure if he should stay mad at her, or laugh at how ridiculous she was being.
He leaned down towards Joanna, brushing his lips against her ear as he said softly, "Do you really think I like n?"
"I..." Joanna’s mind went blank as Ace ca closer.
He only had that small white towel on, so most of his body was exposed. She didn’t dare let her eyes wander, and averted her gaze awkwardly. She felt like she would get neck cramps if this went on any longer.
"I don’t care about your sexuality! Just put so damn clothes on! You’re making feel really uncomfortable!" Joanna said helplessly, trying to escape.
"So that ans you have no idea if I like n or not?"
"Of course not! I..." Joanna looked up defiantly to say sothing, and as she did, Ace captured her lips in a searing kiss.
Joanna’s eyes widened, and heat coursed through her body. Joanna didn’t have much experience when it ca to kissing, but it felt like she was about to surrender to him....
"How about now? Do you now know if I like n or not?" Ace asked huskily as he
reluctantly pulled away, his eyes locked on hers.
Joanna was feeling dazed, and her heart was racing in her chest. She had never expected things to turn out this way.
"Are you still not sure yet?" Ace asked seriously, lifting her delicate chin with a single finger, "You know I don’t mind showing you the answer using another way, right?"
Joanna still hadn’t snapped back to her senses just yet, and she was rather confused. "What do you an?"
Internally, she was kicking herself. ’How could I let a re kiss ss with my head like this?!! Without any explanation, Ace picked Joanna up and carried her bridal-style, walking straight towards the
large bed within the suite.
The entire ti, Joanna was in a state of confusion. It was only when he placed her on the bed gently did she realize that the situation was getting out of hand. "Listen to , Moran, I..."
The man placed a finger over her lips, his voice thick with desire. "Don’t play hard to get. You’re an adult, so you should know what other thods I can use to prove it to you."
Ace’s eyes were dark with desire, and it looked as if he was about to kiss her again. Joanna was like a tiny little lamb who had willingly offered herself as dinner.
It would be quite a waste of her ’efforts’ if he didn’t take the opportunity to ’teach her a lesson’. Additionally, he’d be able to convince her that the rumors regarding his sexuality weren’t true.
"I’ve already cut ties with you, but you keep coming back to tease . Since you want so much, I’ll just have to give you what you want, right? Otherwise, you might say that I, as your ex-husband, am being too selfish."
"You’ve misunderstood!" Joanna protested with a gasp. Her entire body felt like it was burning up from within. She did realize that her actions were quite misleading, so she couldn’t put the bla entirely on him for this misunderstanding.
"I really did co here out of curiosity, and I wanted to see just what the famous Mr. X looked like! I never wanted to sleep with you! If I still liked you, even just a little bit, I wouldn’t have divorced you, right?" Joanna protested desperately as she tried pushing the man away.
The passion in Ace’s eyes was instantly replaced with frost as soon as he heard this. Still on top of her, he asked, "So, do you still believe those rumors?"
"No! I don’t! I don’t!" Joanna shook her head, her expression showing that she was truly convinced.
The atmosphere suddenly beca tense.
Ace’s handso face looked extrely displeased as he continued staring at the won below him. After a while, he snapped sharply. "Leave now!"
’Is he... letting go?!’ The woman thought in shock. She didn’t waste any ti and imdiately scurried off the bed and out of the suite.
As soon as she was outside, she searched everywhere for Julian.
’I need so answers from that punk! How on Earth did he get the password to the suite? And why did he push into that hellhole?!’ Unfortunately, she couldn’t find the man, despite having looked through every nook and cranny.
’Damn that guy! He’s a complete mystery!’ She was actually starting to wonder if she had been hallucinating, and had imagined his presence there. After all, it was quite odd for a popular idol like him to be at such a place.
She had always associated idols with crazy fans and idiocy. Hence, she didn’t think he’d have anything to do with a technology summit at all.
Joanna was no longer in the mood to search for the man anymore, so she simply took the elevator and headed downstairs. As she arrived at the exhibition area in Stellar Group, she noticed that there was a crowd at her company’s booth.
"Who’s in charge here? Have them pack their bags and leave right now! They’re fired!" A large man in a black suit roared at her employees.
