Chapter 53 Can I Refuse?
Chapter 53 Can I Refuse?
Hearing my words, Brandon frowned and looked at me unhappily. He probably didn't like me saying
things like that. Men preferred innocent women, after all.
Just when I thought he wanted to say something, Brandon started the car and started driving again. This is property © of NôvelDrama.Org.
I breathed a sigh of relief in my heart, but at the same time, I felt more disappointed. He had reminded
me more than once about the true nature of our relationship.
I was a little depressed as I looked at the scenery outside the window. I was also a little angry, but I had
no position to say anything.
We had no true relationship to begin with. Brandon had already made that clear when he gave me the
200,000 dollars.
Men are notorious for not acknowledging their partners after sex, but women are different. Once
they've had sex with a man, she would imprint on that man.
It was just like me and Brandon. Our relationship started out as a deal, so once he was tired of me and
didn't find me attractive anymore, we would be done.
"After sleeping with you, you are the only woman who has maintained a relationship with me now."
Just as I was lost in my thoughts, Brandon's voice sounded in my ears.
Was Brandon explaining to me?
My heart skipped a beat. I turned to look at him abruptly. There was still no expression on his
handsome face. He was focused on driving and did not even look at me.
"Oh."
In fact, I was a little excited inside, but when I thought of what Brandon had warned me just now, I
didn't dare to say anything more and could only faintly respond.
Soon, Brandon drove to a place not far of from Grizzlimited and brought me to a small three-bedroom
Apartment.
Compared to Brandon's villa, this house was smaller and less grand, but it looked quite cosy.
I looked around and wondered why Brandon brought me here. Was this also his home?
However, a president like him wouldn't live in such a small apartment. He was used to living in a villa.
"Brandon, what's this place?"
After looking around, I looked at Brandon's face and asked in confusion.
"This is the house I prepared for you. When I want to have sex in the future, I will call you in advance.
And you wait for me here."
Brandon shifted his gaze to my face and explained the use of this place to me.
Hearing Brandon's words, the expression on my face became a little stiff, and I didn't know what to say
for a while.
"This is the key. You can either come here when I call you, or just live here."
I looked at the key that Brandon handed me and felt a little flustered. I refused instinctively.
"Um, I don't think I need this. We can get a hotel room or something for sex. I know there are some
small motels that aren't expensive."
Brandon and I only had a sexual relationship. If I accept his key, wouldn't I become his lover? There
was a great difference between the two.
It was hard for me to accept maintaining a sexual relationship with Brandon. If I became his lover now,
my self-esteem wouldn't be able to take it.
"Hollie, I don't want to find a hotel for sex every time. Okay?"
Hearing my refusal, Brandon's handsome face became gloomy, and he looked at me with displeasure
in his eyes. Now I had a full understanding of his character. He must be very angry now.
Being forced to face his gaze, I really wanted to explain, but I couldn't say a word. According to his
character, if I didn't take this key, he would be angry.
"Can I refuse?"
I looked up at his dark eyes and asked carefully.
"What do you think? Do you have the right to refuse?"
He frowned slightly, and his sexy voice rose slightly. Even though he was asking a question, I knew that
he wouldn't accept no as an answer.
Brandon had always been domineering. He expected his words to be taken as a royal decree. and no
one should go against him.
I looked at Brandon's strong eyes and sighed helplessly. Then I took the key from his hand.
"If you need anything in the future, just call me in advance. I won't be living here full time. My friend will
be suspicious."
Evie was actually a very smart person. If I moved here, she would be suspicious. I didn't want her to
know about my relationship with Brandon. After all, our shameful relationship was disgraceful. I didn't
want Evie to look down on me.
Brandon frowned and looked at me without saying a word. I could almost feel the anger in his eyes.
If he had given one of the women who usually surrounded him a house, she would probably stick to
him like a leech. Maybe it was because he had so many women like that around him that do their best
to flatter him, so that was the kind of women he liked.
An ungrateful person like me probably annoyed him. Or maybe he thought that I was trying to play
hard-to-get.
It wasn't that I thought so lowly of Brandon, it was just that after all this time, I could already tell that he
wasn't a kind person. On the surface, he looks like a mature and sophisticated man, but on the inside,
he was bad. This was also why I found it hard to know what he was thinking.
I looked into Brandon's eyes. Just when I didn't have the courage to look at him again, he finally spoke.
"Whatever you want!"
With that, he turned and walked straight to the bathroom.
I heaved a long sigh of relief. I always felt that every time I faced Brandon, his domineering aura was
so hard to stand up against.
I know very well that a man like Brandon is a very dangerous person. A small fry like me should keep
my distance from him.
If I got to know too much, it wouldn't do me any good.
Listening to the sound of running water from the bathroom, I sat on the sofa in the living room, thinking,
"When will our relationship end?"
I wasn't young anymore. Ever since I broke up with Vaughn, my parents had been hoping that I could
find a man to entrust the rest of my life to. They wanted me to marry and start a family soon.
In fact, I also had this plan. Although since I was betrayed by Vaughn, I no longer believed in love.
Those so-called vows were just words of love to coax little girls.
