Even her voice became tender and soft, "Alexander Kingsley, I... I can't wait any longer, just take me here." She was merely using this as a temporary measure to prevent him from asking further questions.
"Carla, I hope you answer my question directly. Think carefully before replying, I don't want you to lie to me." He restrained the agitation within, asking her in a deep voice.
"Answer my question first, then take your time afterwards."
His insistence on getting to the bottom of everything only made her more uneasy. Seeing there was no way out, she finally spoke, "I haven't hidden anything from you. I just have a man now... As for what happened between us that night, I hope Admiral forgets it."
"It's etched into my heart, how can I forget?" He smirked, lifting her chin, his voice laced with an erosive charm, "Seems I really shouldn't treat you too well!" Because every time he treated her kindly, she could soar to the heavens.
Ha.
"..." She bit her lips, remaining silent.
