A Vengeful Girl novel Chapter 37

Charles kept his voice down.

He leaned over to Linda and whispered those intimate words to her ear.

Linda blushed a bit more as Charles drew close.

"Go away! I am changing your dressing. Get your hand off me." said Linda while she pushed Charles away in order to break free from his hug.

Charles hugged Linda ever more tightly and had not the slightest intention of letting her go. During the struggle, Linda accidentally pressed on Charles's wound.

Letting out a gasp of pain, Charles face went deathly pale.

In a panic, Linda froze still and asked tentatively, "Well? Are you OK?"

"Not OK."

"I've told you not to move. Look where it has led you..."

Before she could finish her words, her lips were kissed by Charles.

"Charles Mu, let go of me! You pervert, scum!"

Said Linda with a slightly irritated tone. Although she was angry, her voice now sounded a lot less intense than it was before.

"Linda, "

A hint of yearning flashed through his eyes as Charles tightened his hug. It looked as if a wild beast was proclaiming its sovereignty over its turf.

"Cut if off. We have an agreement and you promised not to force yourself on me."

Although overwhelmed, Linda still maintained her senses and something told her that she should reject his aggression.

She wanted to reserve that moment with someone she loves. However, with Charles, she could not tell if she loved him or not.

They were just putting on a show. She could play along when they were in public.

But she could not bear the thought of doing it for real.

"I did not force myself on you. I am asking now."

Linda hesitated as she could hear the sound of Charles's pounding heart.

"No, let go of me, Charles Mu."

However, Charles didn't stop at her rejection.

Infuriated by his brazen refusal, Linda yelled, "Charles Mu! You jerk! If you want it so much, you can always find other women! Why force my hand?"

Upon hearing those words, Charles loosened up her grip on her hand.

Under the light, his otherwise gentle look was replaced by a cold, furious face.

Linda promptly broke free from his hug and stood up.

"Linda Xia, you are clever, " said Charles with a cold look on his face, his chiseled fingers clenched together. "You are right."

Somehow, Linda appeared to be upset by Charles words, for she lowered her eyes, her long eyelashes quivering out of sadness.

"Young Master Mu, would you please lay off me. You know all along that our marriage is only about seeking revenge. I did not agree to do such thing with you!"

Standing up from the bed, Charles slowly walked up to Linda with his cold, sharp eyes fixating on her as if he was to see right through her.

Looking at her gloomy face, Linda was a bit terrified and started to step back slowly.

"Bang, bang, bang..."

A sudden series of knocking sounds broke the heavy air of the room.

"Come in." said Charles in his usual indifferent tone.

Paul pushed the door open and walked in. Sensing that something was wrong, he lowered his head and said, "Young Master, we've found something concerning Walker Chen's death. And also, Her Ladyship had called asking you to come back home to join the company of His Lordship and Her Ladyship of the Qi clan tonight."

"Alright. Tell her that I will be back at 6.pm."

"Very well. There are also the files of Walker Chen. They are in the police station. Should we fetch them on our way back home?

"No need. It can wait. Now let's us head to the Qi's. I want to pick up Amy myself."

Paul gave Charles a confused look and then cast his eyes on Linda. He found Charles's look very strange and wondered if those two had had a fight a while back.

However, he dare not say a word.

"What? Charles Mu, if you won't get them, I will fetch them myself!" Linda was a bit infuriated by Charles's attitude. His refusal was clearly meant as a punishment for her turning him down.

Charles, however, simply turned around and gave her a glance before putting on his clothes and leaving the room.

Five minutes later, a kick-ass limited model of red Bugatti Veyron came roaring out of the garage and drove away from the villa of the Mu clan.

Back in the room, Linda took a few steps forward and plunged herself right into the soft king size bed.

Feeling wronged, Linda felt like crying.

She thought she must have pissed Charles off.

Nonetheless, she thought that she had done nothing wrong.

A girl's virginity was too important to be lost to a man she did not love.

To Linda, Charles was a bit of a myth, arrogant and easily changing. Sometimes he could be very gentle, but the next second he would change into such a cold figure that deterred everyone.

Why would this Young Master Mu consent to this engagement?

He must have gotten bored of all the conventional Ladies of wealthy families and wanted to have a change of taste instead.

Bun had come into the room once to check on her. Linda simply shook her head and told her that she was exhausted and just needed a good rest.

All Bun could do is drawing close the curtain and closing the door. She then headed to the kitchen and had the chefs prepare some desserts for Linda to eat when she woke up.

Bun was told that sweet food could lighten up people's mood.

Meanwhile, Paul was driving closely behind Charles in another car in full sweat.

Paul was worried as Charles was racing at the speed of 200 mph and he was having a hard time catching up with his Young Master.

It was way too fast and way too dangerous.

Luckily, Paul was not a lousy driver and he barely managed to catch up with Charles.

Paul broke out a smile when he saw Charles's car pull up in front of the police station. He was convinced that those two must have had a fight a while back. Although Charles refused to help Linda, his action told a different story.
