CHAPTER 25: CHAPTER 25: WANT TO TAKE IT BACK?

Jared Quinn lowered his gaze. The girl sitting on him barely weighed anything, and now she was staring at him with a shocked expression. Due to the recent fright, her softly outlined features were tinged with a light blush, her pink lips slightly parted, full and enticing,

and instinctively he thought of the way she felt when he touched her in the bath two nights ago...

The large hand restraining the girl’s body shifted up an inch.

Suddenly, it was as if a hot stove was pressed against Melody Thorne’s back, the searing heat pulling her back to her senses. She realized that Jared Quinn’s large hand had already moved up her back.

The light in Melody Thorne’s eyes quickly dimmed. She glared at him angrily and lowered her head to bite Jared Quinn’s neck, exclaiming, "How dare you take advantage of me?"

In a previous life, she had suffered so miserably at his hands. How could this man still dare to take advantage of her?

Jared Quinn "..."

The veins on his forehead twitched. It was always Melody Thorne shamelessly trying to take advantage of him. When did he fall to the point of taking advantage of her?

Melody Thorne bit him and quickly retreated from his body. She knew very well the ruthlessness of the man in front of her and wouldn’t be foolish enough to confront him head-on, at least not now when she’s not yet his match.

Just as Jared Quinn’s large hand reached out to grab her, Melody Thorne had already moved several steps away, her clear eyes tinged with a bit of coldness, full of wariness towards him.

Like a little rabbit awaiting slaughter guarding against a big bad wolf, that inexplicable expression made Jared Quinn somewhat upset,

If this had been the Melody Thorne from before, she would shamelessly want him to sleep with her. After just a few days, her changes were truly not minor!

"Come here," Jared Quinn extended a large hand to her, his deep voice as cold as ice holding an irresistible force.

Melody Thorne glanced at his outstretched hand, becoming even more defensive as she stepped back, particularly when the air suddenly went quiet,

It was as if she saw the Jared Quinn from her past life again, the Jared Quinn who filled her with fear.

Watching her constantly retreating steps and guarded expression, Jared Quinn’s eyes suddenly darkened; clearly, he was losing patience, and he stood up, striding towards her. In a blink, he was before her,

his long, elegant, and noble-fingered hand pinched her chin, those deep eyes carrying a penetrating warmth, "Coming to my room late at night just to play hard to get? Hmm?"

With his reminder, Melody Thorne suddenly remembered why she was here. Playing hard to get? She was here to get her camera back!!

"You took my camera today. I want it back!" Melody Thorne exerted all her strength trying to pry open the man’s large hand, but his grip was like a vice that wouldn’t budge.

"Just want the camera back?" Jared Quinn’s words were squeezed out from between his teeth, with a hint of anger.

Even he didn’t know where this anger came from, but it inexplicably made him feel suffocated at his chest.

"Yes, let me go first."

Jared Quinn looked down at the little woman in front of him. She was indeed quite petite. He could almost squash her with one hand, but lately, this woman had been continuously slipping out of his control, making him very displeased.

His large hand moved away from her chin. His exceptionally handsome features took on a layer of frost as he stepped towards the drawer containing the camera. "If you want it back, you’ll have to wait until I’m done looking at it!"

Melody Thorne "..."
