Realisation!

With Jim's sudden appearance, she get shocked and lost her balance but somehow managed to stand still.

"Didn't you go abroad?" With her thumping heart and sweat all over her face, she was breathing heavily.

Seeing this little hedgehog acting like an adorable but furious cat, Jim couldn't help himself to giggle, "Yep, but it was all done yesterday, so I came back."

"So? You miss me?" he asked with more enthusiasm and in teasing manner.

She moved her aside to avoid a direct contact with his eyes, "Huh, no!" At this moment, she is regretting in her heart to even come here and getting stuck in this awkward situation with the Devil (Jim Chin).

"I'm done with the office, bye bye..." raising her jade like hands in a manner to stop him from coming more closer, she gazed at the door to escape from the claws of this wild dog.

But suddenly a glow of diamond entered in Jim's eyesight. His keen eyesight with his fast brain immediately think about the existence of this ring which Tina was wearing in her 'Ring finger' and this fact only refers to one thing, which is that someone gave her an engagement ring!

And that 'Someone' is the person which Jim perfectly knew.

His immediately turned in rage and grabbed her tiny hands with brute force, "Tina! Where did you get this right?"

"Did Siao Paiming gave it to you?"

Although Jim shouted at the top of his lungs but fortunately his office was soundproof otherwise the staff or security would definitely rush to his office after hearing his voice.

Jim didn't realize but his manly force is too much for Tina to handle as she groan in pain, "Let me go! You are hurting me."

But her pale face which was suffering from pain didn't affect Jim's mood, instead of letting her go he used more force, "Take it off! You are not allowed to wear a ring from another man."

Although Jim's pain was severe and the sight of Tina wearing an engagement ring of another person made him heartbroken but his method was wrong, he shouldn't have used force on her but now it was already too late.

She yelled at him with the same tone, "Stop saying such silly nonsense!"

Her sudden words and loud voice made him realise the situation and he gradually loosened his grip on her hand.

"Listen! This is the engagement ring which Paiming gave me and we are getting married soon!" She cleared the matter of the ring in just few words and also gave Jim a sudden stroke of thunderbolt.

"I can fulfill obligations in the contract for the Chin Group.....but you and I can't be together! So stop pestering me...ok?"

Although her mind was clear about what she said but her heart had many doubts about this.

'Yes..The distance between us is too far, we can't be together.... You should know that...' A black cloud of thoughts again surrounded her heart.

Just as she was bothered with her own thoughts, a sudden reply came from Jim, "Do you love him?"

The room fell silent, it was just a momentary silence but the heaviness of Jim's words on her heart was grave, Jim's sudden question took her by surprise and her eyes looked at him with mixed feelings but she immediately suppressed her reactions and said in a low tone, "Of Course...I do love..."

Jim suddenly grabbed her by hand, "You're lying!" He could completly sense that she wasn't telling the truth, his heart can feel that she is not true with her feelings.

"You!" Jim's unexpected force made her stunned but she just couldn't resist this time because she was feeling uneasy in her heart about her previous reply.

Just as she was thinking about how to react, Jim's overwhelming words struck on her again, "If you don't like me then I might give up but I know that you also have feelings for me! Don't you?" His agressive words were like a tiger's roar which can even break a mountain. Tina remained silent and just listened.

"Tina, I can feel you like me, but you just don't wanna admit it!"

" No..." Her weak reply was just like a calf's shivering in front of a Tiger's roar.

"You're just afraid that you are too ordinary and I'm brilliant! You're afraid that I just like you on a whim! So you dare not to face your heart! Tina you love me!"

Although Jim's words may seem like he is just bragging about him briliantness and richness but some of his words were right, it was exactly the same as she was thinking in her heart, like someone just put a mirror of her thoughts in front of her.

"No...No!" At last she couldn't handle the pressure because she didn't had the guts to face this reality so soon and she suddenly broke free from his grasp and ran away while denying this.

"Tina..." Jim couldn't stop her as she ran in full speed and he just stood their with a pale face.

'I don't admit it!'

'You said I liked you.... I'll never accept it!'

'I have accepted Paiming's proposal.'

'Its a Foregone conclusion!'

Dozens of thoughts were running wild in her mind as she was on her way to the exit door at her full pace.

Tina shut her eyes for a moment to calm her wild thoughts but as soon as she reached to the exit, a strange girl appeared at the front.

"Miss Tung!" That girl shouted her name like she was waiting for her to appear.

Tina immediately stopped her wild thoughts and shifted her focus on this strange girl, "Yes?"

"Can I talk to you?" She asked in solemn tone.

"But I don't know you...." before Tina could say further, she continued, "My name is Wendy! And I'd like to talk to you about Siao!"

Tina's eyes widened with surprise after listening the name of that person.
