Loving You In Secret

Chapter 316

Vicky felt as though the man was teasing her like he was teasing a little puppy; he would give her a glimpse of hope but only to disappoint her in the end.

“Alright, then.” The man was not offended by her objection and simply went to turn the light off.

Vicky then heard the sound of him removing his mask. Her heart sank as she blurted out, saying, ’I don’t need your help today.” This content is © NôvelDrama.Org.

“So what?’

Her breath caught in her throat.

“Miss Shaw, are you really that naive?”

She shoved him away and ran out of bed without even bothering to put on her shoes.

The man was caught by surprise and fumbled backward. He chuckled with amusement and said, “I do like to play tag.”

He slowly closed in on her.

The room was spacious and dark, but Vicky had been in the room for the past three days and knew her way around, so she darted toward the direction of the door.

When she came into contact with the cold doorknob, she tried to open the door, but it would not budge.

Her blood ran cold.

“It’s a digital lock that can only be unlocked with a fingerprint and password.’ The man’s voice was heard from behind her.

Vicky turned around to find a dark figure approaching her.

She backed away and leaned on the door as she struggled to catch her breath. “I don’t feel so well today. Tomorrow… Can we do this tomorrow?”

“Sure.”

Vicky froze in disbelief. “What did you say?”

“I can let you rest for a day, but it comes with a price.”

“What kind of price?”

“I haven’t thought of it yet. You can pay me back when I come up with something I want.’

Vicky did not know what trick he was playing, but the bait he dangled before was so tempting every single time that she could not resist taking it even when she knew that it was a trap.

She could only make the best of her situation and said, “Okay.”
