I am teasing you…

"Alright! Alright! How about this? For now, I will tie Alex to this chair, so that he could not escape from here. Then I will wait right outside the door and if you need anything then you can just give me a call? I will come in right away," Aiden suggested.

He only looked at Melissa and even when Alex nodded his head to agree with his suggestion, he ignored his opinion altogether. He continued to wait until Melissa made her decision.  The minute he got a nod from her, he pulled Alex forcefully and dumped him on the chair.

"Hey, I already agreed. If you had just told me, I would have sat on the chair myself. You didn't have to pull me with so much force," Alex complained to him.

But other than giving him a look which meant, 'I don't care', Aiden did not respond to him. Without wasting a minute, he took a thin rope from under the chair and tied him to it.
