The Enticing CEO's Chosen Bride novel Chapter 1138

Cicely's eyes widened, her heart pounding in panic. It wasn't until she crashed into a familiar chest that she felt some comfort.

She stumbled into his arms, her legs awkwardly positioned. She squirmed a bit, but the man's grip tightened around her waist, lifting her up and then setting her back down, this time she landed on the floor.

But the man didn't let go. His long arm wrapped tightly around her waist, pressing their bodies together. She struggled a bit, but his grip only tightened. Finally, her hands braced against his chest, her tense body gradually relaxing.

Her hair was disheveled from the struggle, a blush staining her carefully made-up face. They were face to face, their breath heavy with the smell of alcohol, hard to tell whose was stronger.

Or rather, whose stench of booze was thicker.

"Mr. Diaz, can't we have a straightforward conversation? Do you find it enjoyable to corner me like this every time? Or do you find it thrilling to flirt with me behind your girlfriend's back?"

Seth reached out and held her delicate chin, his fingers feeling the warmth of her smooth skin, his eyes squinting at the sarcastic smile on her face.

His fingers tightened, pulling her closer. His breath, tainted with alcohol, brushed against her nose, stirring her long eyelashes.

"Who told you to work, huh?" His voice was low and threatening.

Cicely smiled, a subtle warmth in her eyes. "No one forbade me from working, I need to earn money, Mr. Diaz."

Seth watched her fake smile quietly, finding it even more annoying than the flirtatious smiles she gave to others.

Not to mention... The way she and Claud were laughing so naturally together.

"I treat you like a VIP at home, yet you're out here serving others? Cicely, you really know how to stir up trouble."

"Can't take it anymore?" Her fingers traced his chest, climbed up his shoulder. Her red lips slightly parted, her words laced with a hint of alcohol. You could see her agile little tongue behind her pearly teeth.

"If you can't take it, let me go. What's the point of spending money on someone who constantly irritates you?"

Seth's face hardened, his lips pressed tightly together, the hand holding her chin unconsciously tightened.

"Let you go? You found a better sugar daddy, and want to be kept by him immediately?"

"Does that concern you?"

Cicely looked closely at the handsome face of the man; even when he was angry enough to turn blue, he was still infuriatingly good-looking.

"Seth, what's your intention and position in meddling with my life? Based on our previous relationship, we're just ex-husband and ex-wife. In short, we're no different from strangers. From the current perspective, you're a man, I'm a woman. Men and women can have friendships, romantic relationships, even sexual relationships, lovers... But is our relationship normal? Haven't you been annoyed, fed up, and disgusted with me? What now? Can't live without me?"
