Adam's Temptation ✔️

7. Ignore

Chloe Richardson

"What should I do, Rebekah?" I question.

"The sheer black one. Definitely." She said and I mentally face-palmed myself.

"Not about the dress, about Adam Stalin." I said and she shrugged her shoulders.

"I'm really hungry to think. Can we go to a restaurant before getting in all the thinking?" She said and I nodded my head.

We're at the mall currently. Adan's sister, Rose Stalin is celebrating a big success of her jewellery line Rosa's and has invited some of Adan's clients to the big celebration. I'm invited too since I've signed a campaign with Fashion and the city and am their newest member.

I'm at the mall with Rebekah, searching for a dress for the party. I've settled on a dark blue dress with uneven end and thick straps. It was sleeveless and sorta transparent. Rebekah wasn't in the town that night so she isn't going but is here to help me nevertheless.

I quickly paid for my dress and got into Rebekah's car. We choose a fancy restaurant and drove there. Once near the restaurant, the driver parked a little far and so we got off.

There were some paparazzis waiting by the restaurant. God knows why were they here. As soon as they saw us, they started clicking photos. It's a good thing I was dressed nice today. I wore a pencil skirt with a sheer black crop top and black stripped heels. I had carried my blush pink clutch and accessories were all cute.

We both stopped for a moment before the entrance of the restaurant and gave a pose to the paparazzis. Waving them a quick 'hi', we walked inside the restaurant.

"So, he's still ignoring you?" Rebekah asked once the food was served.

"Yeah."

"You really like him don't you?" She asked with a smirk and I nodded my head.

What's the point in hiding it.

"Personally, I think you should just go to his house and seduce him until he breaks." She said and my eyes widened.

"Really?"

"Sure. He wouldn't be able to resist your smoking hot body, baby." She said flirtily and I nodded.

"In fact, your dressed perfectly for it. Just go there and seduce the hell out of him." Rebekah again smirked.

"Sounds like a plan."

"Sir, Miss Richardson is here to see you." The maid said as she knocked at Adam's study's door. Some shuffling was heard and after a moment passed, the door flung open. Adam stood there in his usual suit with a frown on his face.

"What're you doing here?" Was the first thing he asked and I furrowed my eyebrows at him.

"Hi, what's your name?" I turned to the maid and smiled politely.

"Crystal."

"Crystal, you can take the evening off and the same goes for your colleagues." I said and she nodded her head, walking away immediately.

"Adam," I turned around and saw him. He was still eyeing me up and down. His mouth a little open and his eyes a bit widened. He cleared his throat and looked me in the eyes.

"Why did you dismiss my maids?" He said emphasising 'my'.

"Because. I wanna talk." I said and Adam turned around and leaned against his desk.

"Why are you ignoring me?" I said and crossed my arms against my chest. His eyes fell on my cleavage and his lips parted again for a second.

"It's not like I talk to you for hours, Chloe." Damn, the way he says my name.

"Yes but you're acting as if you don't know me every time we crossed paths in your brother's office the last two weeks."

"It's nothing. Go home. Stop wasting my time." He said and crossed his hands too.

"So you're gonna pretend like the kiss never happened." I said and his eyes snapped towards me, as if he wasn't expecting me to bring the topic up.

"I don't wanna talk about it." He dismissively said.

"Oh but you will. I don't care if you don't wanna. I wanna know. Was that kiss so bad? Was I that terrible? Is the though of having something with me that bad in your mind?" I questioned and my voice broke a little at the end.

It hurts when a person you think you can have a relation with ignores you, loathes your existence, behaves as if you don't exist. It hurts so damn much.

"Stop talking, Chloe. Please go home." He said and clenched his jaw, again looking down.

"I won't leave until, you tell me why you're avoiding me." I stood my ground and his forest green eyes snapped towards me. Anger swam in his eyes as he took a step towards me. He held my waist in a soft grip and pressed me against the wall.

"Because every damn time that I look at you, I start loosing control over myself. Every second of every hour of my day all I imagine is our sweaty bodies pressed against each other in my bed. Whenever I look at you, all I wanna do is grab you, chain you to my bed and make heavy, steamy and rough love to you until the only word that comes out of your sweet mouth is my name." And without thinking I pressed my lips against his.
