Hearing the cold and accusatory tone, Valentina pulled back and calmly arched a brow at Kaiser.

"I beg your pardon? I was out. Doing what I wanted to do. Is there a problem?" She replied cooly.

She had thought that something major had happened to him, but seeing as he was asking about her whereabouts, she guessed not. He was just being nosy.

Although she had nothing to hide, the tone in which he was asking questions was not to her liking at all.

"Is there a problem?" Kaiser laughed incredulously while staring at her calm expression before his lips twisted into a slightly bitter smile, and he started listing off her crimes in a cold voice. "You were spotted out drunk with Rio last night after being on a date with him all day, laughing, touching on each other, and clearly having a good old time. And then you didn't come home all night and didn't even have the decency to update me. So, let me ask this again. Where. Were. You?" Kaiser stood up and approached her, his gray eyes flashing angrily as he marched up to her.

Hearing Kaiser's restrained anger and intensity, Valentina almost backed away before standing firm and cooling her gaze.

Although she had been feeling guilty about her actions yesterday getting out to the press, that didn't mean she would tolerate someone questioning her like a disobedient child or employee.

Not even the man that she had come to like.

"If you are saying all that, why are you asking me? You already have an answer in your mind, right? I was out. With a friend. What's the problem?"

"A friend? Heh. You were out. All night with another man. And didn't come home and didn't message me. And you don't think there's a problem with that?" Kaiser asked angrily.

"I don't like the way you're talking to me, and I don't understand why you're upset. I'm an adult. This is not my home. I didn't do anything with anyone, and I don't owe you an explanation about my whereabouts. I haven't done so before, and I'm not about to start now. Since you're so upset, clearly state why you're upset and what you think I did so wrong. I can tell you what I thought I did wrong, but from the way you're spinning your words around, I highly doubt we'll come to an agreement. Will you go first, or should I?"

He saw her stare at him in a challenging manner, although he wanted to calm himself down and speak with her calmly.

He wanted to ask exactly what she did with him, what they talked about, what they laughed about, why she looked so happy when they got so close to each other, and why she let him hold her like that, where she slept last night, whose clothes she was wearing.

He wanted to tell her he had waited all night, worried. Called her phone numerous times and had to rely on media photos to find out that she was okay.

Instead, the words he wanted to restrain just tumbled out of his mouth.

"You want me to state it clearly? Fine. You went out, not a problem. You're an adult, it's your life. You didn't update me on any changes, didn't call, and didn't even have the courtesy of being discreet and getting caught by the media, which I took care of by the way. You're welcome. You come back the next morning dressed in his clothes, smelling like him, after being caught on camera. I warned you Valentina, did I not? I warned you to keep the distance just right because there's a lawsuit going on. To not get too close. After everything I've been doing for you, the money I'm sinking in, and the effort I'm putting in, this is what I get in return? I waited up all night, prepared food, searching for news about while you were cavorting with another man. While you were giggling with him, I was here fixing both of your messes, and the only thing you have to tell me is, is there a problem? This is how you repay me? After everything I've been doing? What the hell, Valentina?"
