Chapter [6]

Noah pov:

"How did you..." I was going to ask her. But she cut off me.

"I'm a swimmer! Or in another meaning, I used to be a professional swimmer! Worldwide champion actually," she blurted out, staring away as if she remembered an old bad memory about being a swimmer.

"Why?!" I narrowed my eyes.

"Why what?" she whispered, still staring away. This girl could read in between the lines; no one ever did that before!

"Yes." I moved closer, paying attention to her.

She looked straightaway and deeply into my eyes. "I miss my old life," she sighed.

I opened my mouth to say something, but I couldn't find a word! I wanted to ask her a lot about her life but that might take a long time.

I mumbled, "Why am I curious about you?"

She rubbed her chin confidently. "Because I know who you are!"

She said her words and left me with a bewildered mind and walked away. 'Who sent her?! Why she keeps saying that she knows me?! What did she mean by that?!'

I pulled her arms tightly grabbing her to my chest. "Who are you?"

She gazed at my hand and raised an eyebrow. "I'm the only woman that will accept you and accept your real identity without fear! Because I want to," she said to me boldly and released her hands from mine. I pulled myself away trying to understand her words. She's smart, mysterious, but that gave me a warning to not trust her!

"Where are you going?" I hollered at her, stopping her moves.

She turned her head slowly to me. "To change my clothes; they told me there's a party tonight!" What? She will attend?!

"It's for businessmen and politicians!" I narrowed my eyes.

She shrugged her shoulders. "So! I still could go! I'm your girl!" She winked and rushed away to the suite. I don't know why I didn't believe her. It was as if she was hiding something. I wonder if fate bumped her into my path or she planned for meeting me!

I finished some meetings and fired some of the employees. I made some calls. I forgot about the breakfast and the lunch because I was so busy.

I was surprised by Selena who stormed into my office and placed her hands on her waist, interrupting my meeting "So, do you think that I'm a slave?!" she murmured.

I widened my eyes, flabbergasted at her reaction. "What?!" I gestured to all my men to go out. At least there wasn't any businessman with me because her attitude could make my reputation go down.

She frowned and crossed her arms over her chest. "I didn't eat anything, I'm hungry! If this is the kind of relationship you are talking about, then I prefer to be single!"

"Why didn't you eat anything?!" I raised my brows in curiosity.

She huffed. "Having a boyfriend! Living together! This means we should eat together! Sleep at the same time! Taking a shower at the same time! Do shopping with each other! Almost share everything!" she explained annoyingly.

I cleared my throat based on her view of the relationship. I have never been into a serious one, but in my life and in my country, there's nothing like that! Beyond any doubt, she's unique and different.

"I don't know about that!" I said, glaring at her with a plain look.

She looked me up and down. "Say sorry."

I shook my head, thunderstruck. "What?! I never used that word!"

"You will! Now! Or I'm going," she smirked, heaving repeatedly in a childish way.

I grind my teeth "Fine! Sorry."

She stepped closer to me, placing her arms around my neck and licked her lips seductively. "I like dangerous guys like you. Anyway, see you at the party."

I pulled her back. "What? Are you going alone?! Wait for me!"

She chuckled, teasing me with a wink. "I'm going with another man. See you handsome!"

‘What?! Another man! Who the hell dared to invite her?’

I rushed, trailing after her like crazy. Thanks to her, I didn't change my suit! I was so angry!

I spotted her kissing one of the French businessmen. I kept my eyes on her from afar, then a few minutes later, I stormed inside the ballroom and everyone bowed their heads to me in respect. Except her; she was glaring with a big smirk as if she wanted to tell me she wasn’t afraid of me! As if she wanted to tell that she was not impressed by my money.

I pulled her hand and pushed the French businessman away. "Why are you with him?!"

She innocently smiled, teasing me. "I do like him, I like French men!" and she gave me her back, ignoring me and opening a conversation with this man again.

I gazed at him with a death glare; he trembled and gulped. I pulled her by her waist and whispered huskily. "You are mine! Stay away from him."

She licked my ear and whispered. “I am not yours and I like him!"

"Don't make me..." I hollered, then paused.

She laughed hysterically. "What?! I told you I hate blood!"

"Who the hell are you?" I groaned loudly with a snort, making all the businessmen stop breathing. Everyone knew my bad temper and when I looked like that, it means someone would die.

"Selena! Is that you?" A familiar voice shouted out her name.

"What?! Steven! The son of the most famous Italian ambassador and...?!" I mumbled, almost losing control over my hands. I tightened my grip on her arm until Steven pulled her to him, kissing her cheeks.
