Chapter 402
Almost immediately, Eric’s mischievous personality surfaced. ‘Scream if you dare, but I’m not scared at
all. If anyone comes, I’ll just say it was you who seduced me. Let’s wait and see who gets embarrassed
in the end.
– You do not have shame? His statement pissed me off so much that I couldn’t find other words to say.
If anyone saw Eric holding me like that, ten out of ten people would definitely think I was the one who
seduced him. After all, he was known as one of the most eligible bachelors, while I was just a married
woman. No one would believe that the usually aloof President Walker would get his hands on a married
woman.
I didn’t think even I would believe it.
While I was lost in thought, he carried me off and walked briskly on his long legs. Soon, he brought me
to another pavilion and put me on the ground.
The moment my legs hit the ground, I jumped away from him, keeping a safe distance as I glared at
him. ‘What the hell are you trying to do, Eric?’
For some unknown reason, I would lose my temper easily these days. I would swear over the smallest
thing, the F-word slipping out of my mouth softly. However, Eric’s face was solemn as he said, ‘Speak
civilly, Lilian Hawkins. Don’t blame me for being rude if you swear again!’ This belongs © NôvelDra/ma.Org.
‘I don’t need to be polite to someone like you, who is despicable, untrustworthy and loves to snitch on
others,’ I retorted, trying to be encouraging.
‘Looks like you’re addicted to profanity, so I don’t mind teaching you a lesson today.’ Without the
slightest hint of a smile on his face, he approached me. ‘I hear it’s different when you do it
outdoors. The scenery here isn’t bad, so I don’t mind undressing you here!’

‘You *ssh-‘ The last syllable caught in my throat when I saw the look in Eric’s eyes. Height would
actually strip me naked if I cursed at him again. A wise man would not fight when the odds were against
him, so I guiltily backed up a few steps and warned, ‘Don’t do anything foolish and tell me directly why
you brought me here.’
‘I just want to have a heart-to-heart with you!’
‘We have nothing to talk about!’
‘There is if I say so, then sit down!’ he ordered, his arrogance growing with each word.
Looking around cautiously, I sat down in a chair in the pavilion.
He then got up and walked over to me, but as soon as he sat down next to me, I immediately moved to
a seat further away from him, closing the distance between us. Snorting, Eric said, ‘You’re doing well,
aren’t you? You act so suspiciously and set all your guards against me like I’m a thief, but you were so
brazen with Richard. Do you trust a stranger that much?
‘Don’t mention that *idiot to me!’ Right after I said that, I looked at him anxiously and felt a sense of
relief when I saw that he didn’t seem to mind that I had cursed again this time. ‘That Richard is
inhuman! More inhuman than you!
‘Do you have the nerve to curse him when you don’t even reflect on your own behavior?’
‘And my behavior? What did I do wrong?’
‘Aren’t you admitting you did something wrong? Do you know Richard?
‘No.’
‘If you’re not, then why do you trust him so much that you spend time alone with him?’
‘I… I thought he just wanted to talk about official business with me.’
‘Official business? Why isn’t he discussing this in the office but here in such a location when it comes to
official business? As a woman, you are not reserved at all and easily agreed to a man’s request without
defending yourself. Do you not know that by doing this you are only hinting to the man that he has a
chance?
