CHAPTER 506: CHAPTER 506: ASKING FOR A BEATING

The man kept taking Ava Sterling’s words as nonsense, as if he couldn’t hear, so Ava Sterling stopped being polite.

She didn’t answer the man again and directly went for it, grabbing the man’s hand and twisting it swiftly, making him cry out in pain.

But Ava didn’t care about the man at all, twisting his body around, then she took the opportunity to kick the man on the butt, causing him to stagger away from her instantly.

Ava’s voice was irritable and full of anger, she shouted sternly, "Get lost! If you dare to hover around me again, believe it or not, I’ll kill you!"

Ava Sterling could hold her temper with Poe Vaughn, but she had no such patience with others. Constant harassment, constantly testing her limits, this person deserved a beating!

If she didn’t use force, this person would definitely push his luck.

Ava understood these kinds of men too well.

Of course, as a beauty, Ava Sterling had experienced such approaches countless times before.

She’s seen all sorts of men trying to chat her up, emerging endlessly. But to sum it up in one sentence, don’t give them an inch, because they’ll take a mile.

This time, the man didn’t dare to do anything more. He looked at Ava Sterling and then ran away in fear.

It was clear Ava was a rose with thorns, but he hadn’t expected the thorns to be so terrifying; if mishandled, lives could be lost.

Beauty is beautiful, but life is more important.

Ava Sterling watched as this man finally disappeared, the anger in her eyes still burning.

She’s rejected him, spoken kindly, yet he wouldn’t listen; action was the only thing he understood.

He truly deserved to be abused.

Now that the annoying person was finally gone, the air around her was clear and quiet again, Ava withdrew her gaze, calmed her mood, then picked up her phone to continue watching her TV, continue studying.

She could have had more time to study, but this person had wasted some of it, Ava really regretted not kicking him a few more times.

Thinking of this, Ava’s brows furrowed, her expression became increasingly displeased.

At this moment, at the end of the corridor on Ava’s left, Poe Vaughn stood there, watching the person in front of him with her phone.

He had witnessed the whole scene just now; when Ava said "get lost," she was like a furious lion, mercilessly dealing with the man, he saw it clearly.

He didn’t come over, just stood there watching her, watching how she dealt with those men who flirted with her, watching her anger, displeasure, and disgust.

She made no attempt to hide it.

Including her current displeasure, obviously conveying her dislike of the man just now.

She was always quick-tempered, impatient; if people didn’t listen to her, she’d show no mercy.

This had never changed.

At this moment, the weight in Poe Vaughn’s heart dissipated, the darkness in his eyes gradually faded away, he returned to his usual self, that serene and unwavering demeanor.

No one could affect him, no one could sway him.

He raised his step and walked over.

Although Ava Sterling had been very angry and irritated at first, as she watched TV and got into the plot, she gradually forgot the unpleasantness just now. Her mind was completely absorbed in the TV, in the actors’ performances.

She didn’t know Poe Vaughn had returned, didn’t know he had seen the entire scene just now, and didn’t know he was walking over right now.

The corridor was covered with thick carpet, Poe Vaughn’s leather shoes made no sound as they touched the ground.

He watched the person ahead leaning against the railing, constantly looking down at the phone. Under the light, that pretty face gradually calmed, gradually focused, in the manner of someone seriously studying and researching, very compliant.

His eyes lingered on her as he silently walked over, quietly closing the distance between them.

Ava Sterling’s mind was completely on her phone, not noticing any movement or atmosphere around her.

However, when the door dinged suddenly, Ava’s brows furrowed.

But she still hadn’t realized it was Poe Vaughn returning; she just felt that this sudden sound had broken the silence, disturbed her, making her instinctively displeased.

She kept on watching her TV, kept on studying.

Clearly, she had forgotten about Poe Vaughn, forgotten where she was.

Poe Vaughn walked over, neither calling Ava Sterling nor acknowledging her, directly heading to the door, taking out his room card and unlocking it.

The door dinged, then clicked open.

He grasped the door handle, opened the door, and went inside.

Ava Sterling heard the ding and felt annoyed, but when followed by another click of the door opening, she became quite irritable. Her brows knitted tightly, and she immediately raised her head, following the sound, then saw that tall sturdy figure entering the room.

Ava Sterling was stunned, then looked down the corridor, then at the person walking into the suite.

Her lips parted, her eyes and face full of surprise.

When did he come back? How did she not notice at all?

Before Ava could think more, the suite door was about to close in front of her eyes, she hurriedly said, "Wait, wait!"

Quickly went in, snatched the door from Poe Vaughn’s hand, and slammed it shut with a bang.

The sound was loud enough to make the entire suite tremble.

Ava Sterling herself was startled by this sound, she hadn’t thought she was so forceful, making such a loud noise.

However, Ava didn’t think much, she covered her startled heart and looked at Poe Vaughn.

Poe Vaughn was unfazed, stepping toward the bedroom.

He wasn’t scared by the loud door slam, nor did he care about Ava, as if Ava was air, completely ignoring her.

Ava Sterling’s expression momentarily stiffened.

Is he still angry about what happened earlier?

It was just a kid, was it necessary?

Although Ava thought Poe Vaughn made a fuss over nothing, she had no choice; he was the sponsor. Even the smallest issue presented to her, she had to take seriously.

So, without hesitation, Ava immediately tossed her phone onto the sofa and quickly ran to Poe Vaughn, then suddenly hugged him from behind.

"Honey, you’re still mad~"

This remark was coy, nothing like the fierce manner she had shown to the men outside who tried chatting her up.

It could be said there was none of that, she seemed like a different person.

Poe Vaughn halted his steps.

Then, he raised his hand to remove Ava Sterling’s, not letting her embrace him.

Ava’s hand was taken away by his large palm, she was stunned, then quickly hugged him again, even crossing her arms, tightening her grip.

She quickly said, "Poe Vaughn, it was just a kid, don’t be mad."

"A kid barely out of diapers, why bother with him?"

"You’re an adult; if you argue with a child like this, people will laugh at you."

Ava Sterling originally planned to use a gentle approach, but this man was clearly unyielding, and she didn’t think there was any issue with the youngster kissing her, so she wasn’t going to humor him, she directly spoke.

Of course, she couldn’t let him leave; if he left, how could they communicate?

Communicating with him when he was angry was already difficult, and if she let him go, it would become even harder to communicate, and the problem would remain unresolved.

That was not the outcome she desired.

Thus, issues needed to be addressed promptly, without any procrastination!
