Chapter 17: He Imprison Her

This rascal!

Although Aaron looked aloof with strangers and had no interest in sex, he's actually shameless!

Katrina feels on the verge of breaking down. She'll go crazy if he doesn't let her go soon.

What does the thief have to do with her? Why does she have to stay here?

In the face of Katrina's charges, Aaron points to the distance between them. "I'm on this site, and you're on that side. How can I be rude to you?"

"You…" Katrina feels so dumbfounded that she can't say a word and settles for killing him angrily with his eyes.

Yes, there are indeed a few meters between them, and he can't reach her with his long arms to cause actual harm to her.

But is it polite to stare at a girl's breasts in the early morning?

If he's not a rascal, what is he?

Of course, Katrina is too embarrassed to mention how he looked at her chest.

As the culprit, shouldn't he know himself?

But he said it so openly!

Aaron isn't normally thick, and his heart isn't usually cold.

Looking at Katrina's angry face, Aaron walks up to her with a slightly raised lip. He easily raises her chin, forcing her to look straight into his eyes. Deliberately lowering his voice to her ear, he says, "Are you using this to attract my attention? Should I satisfy you as you wish to fit the charges?"

His voice is deep and alluring in her ears. She can feel the breath from his nose gently sweeping over her sensitive neck, making her ears unconsciously turn red.

His tall body overshadows her, and his breath is hot on the tip of her nose.

"You... You're such a stickler!

What an unbelievable person!

He's the one who's clearly done her wrong, but he's the first one to accuse her!

She called him out on his behavior, but instead of being repentant, he turned the tables on her.

Katrina doesn't understand how a man who inverts right and wrong can manage so many of his men and such a great business.

Her red lips looked as if they're radiating with a seductive glow. With him pinching her chin, her pink lips open unconsciously, as if they were luring people in. At that moment, Aaron is overcome with a sudden desire to kiss her.

Will the taste of her lips be as sweet as her body?

Seeing Aaron's dark eyes trained intently on her, Katrina gets a little flustered.

What does he want to do?

Why is he looking at her like that?

Does he really want to have his way with her?

Just then, Randy comes out of the kitchen with breakfast. He coughs lightly and says, "Mr. Wilson, Miss Miller, it's time for breakfast."

Randy breaks the strange silence between them just in time to kill Aaron's desire to kiss her.

Aaron loosens her jaw and turns to the table.

Katrina glares at him angrily.

Is her jaw so pliable to be pinched? He keeps pinching her chin every now and then!

Doesn't he know how to respect people?

Katrina has no idea what kind of family did he grew up in, but it seems he didn't receive a good education.

She would feel like a failure if she had such a son.

It's a pity that such a rude and strange man has a handsome face.

Katrina sits across him and eats at the table, looking sullen.

Aaron eats breakfast, ignoring Katrina's look of resentment and chagrin.

After finishing the food on his plate, he puts his knife and fork down and says, "I'll take you out later."

Katrina is stunned. She puts down the glass of milk quickly and leans forward. She can't contain her happiness as she looks at him with big beautiful eyes.

"Are you letting me go? Did you catch the thief? You don't have to bother! I can leave by myself! Where's my bag? Give me my bag, and I'll leave your sight immediately!"

After being held here for so long, it's the first time he offered to take her out of the house. Katrina believes he finally intends to let her leave.

His men brought her here from downtown, and now they're going to send her back. That's great!

But she doesn't dare ask for a ride, in case he changes his mind. She'll go back on her own, no matter how far and tiring it'll be.

Aaron suddenly feels a little uncomfortable to see Katrina so happy at the thought of leaving. Her eyes sparkle when she mistakenly thinks she gets to leave.

Is she so desperate to get out of here and get rid of him?

He looks at her coldly. "I'm just taking you out to buy some clothes. You'll be sent back afterward."

Since she wants to leave so badly, he will imprison her instead.

Katrina gives him an incredulous look. "Clothes?"

"Yes, clothes." Aaron touches his chin and glances at her. "Or do you prefer wearing my clothes all the time?"

Katrina was wearing Aaron's shirt last night. But she did it in secret and didn't let anyone else know.

How did Aaron find out if she never left the room last night?

Caught red-handed, Katrina blushes, "How did you know that?"

In an instant, Katrina's words make Aaron's face flush unnaturally.

He discovered that Katrina wore his clothes through the surveillance footage.

If Katrina finds out that there's a camera in her room, and that he watched her change her clothes yesterday, she will become even more furious with him.

He can't let her find out what he did.

Aaron coughs. "I've lost one of my shirts from the yard. Who else would take it?"

His explanation silences Katrina.

She presses her lips and lowers her head. "Don't worry. I'll give it back after I wash it."

Although Aaron offered to take her shopping, Katrina isn't happy at all.

Hasn't there been any progress with catching the thief?

Will he take her out shopping because he's going to keep her here?
