The Billionaire’s Secret Quartet novel Chapter 349

"Hmph, Alaric, and that woman, I'll get you!"

Georgia huffed, her chest heaving with anger.

"Alright, you've had your fun. Time to let go of my hand," Alaric said, trying to pull his hand from Hertha's grip after they had walked some distance together.

Hertha stopped abruptly, looking up at him. "Did I take advantage of you? Wasn't it just holding hands? You kissed me just now. How does that count?"

Alaric retrieved his hand and shoved it in his pocket, a smirk playing on his lips. "Didn't you enjoy it just now?"

Hertha blushed at his comment. Indeed, his kiss had made her feel all soft and fuzzy, like a ball of cotton candy.

Who could blame her, when he looked so devilishly attractive? She had been smitten with him from the moment she saw him, her heart filled with him. When he kissed her, her body instinctively responded.

Hertha fell silent for a moment, her eyes slightly evasive. Then, with an air of defiance, she said, "My enjoyment and your forced kiss aren't related. Moreover, didn't you just call me your girlfriend? Does that still count?"

Hertha asked, her face filled with hope and apprehension.

She had always dreamed of being his girlfriend.

If such a golden opportunity came falling from the sky and she didn't grab it, she would be a fool.

Seeing Hertha's earnestness, Alaric became serious. "Didn't you realize that? I said that to irritate Georgia and make her give up."

Georgia was the heiress of the Reed Group. His family had been trying to push her onto him, hoping he would marry her for a strategic alliance.

Although Alaric was a playboy who loved women, Georgia's temper and tendency to turn violent when upset was something he didn't appreciate.
