Book:The Selfish CEO Published:2024-6-2

“Well …” Sammy Jones gasped, his hand shaking slightly as he clasped his hand, “You, you don’t mess with … ”
Joey Xu wasted no time in taking hold of her breasts and playing with them, his long, slender fingers sliding nastily over the cups and burrowing in, teasingly pinching the tips of her peaches, “I don’t want to be messing around here either, you made me!”
“Where did I …” she felt innocent, her breath catching and her voice softening, “Let go of me … ”
Her eyes were slightly misty.
Joey Xu liked this look of hers, it was much cuter than the usual coldness towards himself. With a thought, not only did he not let go, he caught her lips and wanted to kiss her again.
But …
In the next instant, footsteps came unexpectedly from the next house, followed by the slightest hint of light coming through the doorway.
Days!
Sammy Jones was shocked with cold sweat all over her body, just now the mirth all ran away in an instant, she immediately grabbed Joey Xu’s hand tightly, to pull him out of his clothes, “Others are coming out … you let go!”
Joey Xu didn’t move, he just faintly swept his eyes at the next house. After hanging out in the road for so long, he was extremely vigilant about these movements, so he had long heard the footsteps, which were clearly not coming towards the door.
But it’s okay to scare her.
“Let go of you can, open the door!”
Sammy Jones knows he mixes. Himself and his fight can neither compare to his domineering nor his thick skin. If she was stubborn, she would be the only one to suffer.
“Then you let go first.” Sammy Jones clasped his wrist.
Joey Xu let go of her hand, and she breathed a sigh of relief, hurriedly rummaging through her bag for the key and inserting it into the lock, her fingers still trembling slightly.
The door, it’s open.
Before she could turn on the light, Joey Xu had already dashed in. While embracing her, he brought the door closed. Strong male breath domineeringly wrapped around herself, Sammy Jones heart trembled terribly, instinctively struggled, “You’re not allowed to touch me!”
Joey Xu held her right up against the door panel, eyes burning with the aggression of a wild animal, “Sammy Jones, don’t forget, you’re in no position to turn me down!”
With that, without giving her any space, he pinched her lips and kissed her.
Overbearing, arrogant, sucking hard, as if to suck out her soul all together …
Sammy Jones was trembling even with his heart, so close to not being able to breathe from his kisses, yet, barely grasping at a shred of sanity, remembering what he was, remembering what kind of person he was …
Remember, more than anything, the existence of Hope Cho …
“Respond to me!” Joey Xu commanded in a roughly accented voice as he backed off an inch slightly, gasping and grinding his lips against hers.
His heart was drenched with her, a sentiment he couldn’t put into words, just a desperate desire for her to do the same as him, for her to respond warmly in kind.
Sammy Jones naturally didn’t know what was going on in his mind, his fingers curled up and pinched in his palms as he looked at him with moist eyes, “Joey Xu, I’m a human being, not your plaything …”
He was stunned and looked at her as if he couldn’t understand.
“In the future … you don’t want to come back, count on me please …”
Speaking here, her voice immediately choked. After these words were said, in the future and he really will not have any more interactions, the heart is also cut like a knife pain. But …
The closer you get, the deeper it hurts …
Joey Xu just felt his eyebrows popping and instinctively rejected her, “I told you, sell once, you’re not worth that kind of money yet!”
Sammy Jones laughed back, tears staining the corners of his eyes, “So how many times would you say … you want enough? Now start counting, how many times you want, I give you …”
He breathed much heavier and just looked at her coldly.
“Five or ten times, I can … do it and you go, and then … we should never cross paths again … ”
A sentence, gasping for breath several times before saying complete. The heart is so so painful, like being carved open by a knife with several bloody mouths …
But she had no choice …
Perhaps he could pretend it was all a game and forget about it afterward. But she is not as elegant as him, she can’t afford to play the game of feelings …
Joey Xu’s demeanor chilled inch by inch.
She said it with such determination, as if she had made up her mind a long time ago, without a moment’s hesitation.
As if, between them, there was really just a deal, nothing else but this …
So …
You can say break and break!
Joey Xu suddenly felt like a stupid fool. Women, how many do you want? However, at this moment, it’s not even as dashing as she is!
Isn’t that ridiculous?
Coldly lifting her lower jaw, he looked at her even more coldly, “Now you dare to say such big words, aren’t you afraid that I will really let you die in bed?”
She bit her lip out of a patch of white before saying, “Isn’t that what you said? I’m not in a position to refuse you …”
“Good, Sammy Jones … since you so do not want to have intercourse with me, then I fulfill you this time …” Joey Xu’s voice, stiff and cold as stone. In the heart, it is even cooler like ice.
A paroxysm of pain that he chose to ignore.
“You’ve satisfied me this time, cool, and I’ll never come back to you in this life!”
Her heart, clenched.
Eyes, red.
And then …
His voice, continued …
“Even if we meet someday, we’ll still be a pair of strangers!” He almost gritted his teeth, a sentence that was heavy and desperate.
Sammy Jones’ breath stops and his heart feels like it’s been whipped to the skin …
But …
But harden your tears and choke them down, hiding the bitter taste in your heart all together.
She looked at him with a smile, “Good, then I … thank you in advance for making it happen …”
Joey Xu’s heart felt like it was cracked open, deep and painful.
The more this hurts, the more I want to return this pain to her as well. Bending his head, he bit her hard on the lips, with vengeance, the action was not light, “Don’t thank me yet, wait until you have enough of my bath wish!”
Without waiting for Sammy Jones to reply, the next second, large palms ripped at her clothes.
==
The midday sun, shining through the window.
==
The cell phone ringer sounded in the room at first, abrupt and shrill.
Disturbed by the noise, the woman winced uneasily and lazily pulled the covers up.
Joey Xu is awake.
Against him was the curve of a bare back, snow-white, but all the more tantalizing for those marks he had left behind.
He remembered what they had said last night.
From then on, strangers!
Determined, and relentless.
He Joey Xu is a proud man, and by no means learns to be a stalker, so …
He made her whole!
Cell phone, still ringing.
He reached over and grabbed it and put it to his ear.
Before he could say anything, over there, came Goodburn’s voice.
“Sir, Old Mr. Zhao has arrived at the company and said he wants to talk to you about the wedding with Miss Zhao Yuanyuan.”
“Wedding?” Joey Xu held the two words in a shallow frown.
Subconsciously swept the woman lying on the side of the body, she is still sleeping peacefully, calmly, as if there is no trace of a little bit of being disturbed.
Yeah!
How could she react? What kind of reaction do you expect from her? In her eyes, he is an asshole, rogue, overbearing, and she is by no means a person of the same world, and she is looking forward to clear relations with him, so now even if she knows that he has a fiancée and wants to get married, I’m afraid that she will only be happier!
Thinking this way, he skimmed back his head and said to Goodburn, “Got it, I’ll be right over.”
Joey Xu got dressed and wanted to leave, but, pulling open the door to his room, his feet couldn’t help but pause.
With a heavy look at her, finally, he sank his steps.
The door to the room was brought up, and footsteps, farther and farther … farther and farther …
Far enough to be completely out the door and never heard from again …
The quilt, huddled shoulders, trembled. And then, muffled sobs, resounded through the room …
Bleak, painful …
It makes one’s whole heart clench into a ball when one listens to it.
I don’t know how long it took before she slowly got up from the bed. Every inch of her body felt as if it had been run over by a road roller, and whenever she moved, she was so sore that she could barely stand on her feet. However, she still held onto the wall and barely made it to the hall.
Pouring myself a glass of water, I rummaged through the cupboard again to find the pills I’d bought at the drugstore last time. I had taken one last time, and there was still one left.
With tears in her eyes, she tilted her head back and swallowed the medicine.
That bitter taste that spreads from the mouth, all the way … to the tip of the heart …
This feeling, later, will never come again …
Never again!
Driving all the way to the office, Joey Xu was distracted. Last night’s demand was so fierce that he was even worried if she would be able to hold up today. Grabbing the steering wheel, he could hardly resist the urge to turn back, but wouldn’t it be ridiculous to turn back now?
If she asks, how will she answer herself?
Tell her that he came back to check on her because he was uneasy? She would laugh at his lack of panache, at his stalking, and in the meantime stubbornly tell him that she couldn’t die and to leave him alone! Or that they were two strangers from then on, and didn’t need such kindness from him!
Joey Xu was ultimately not looking back at the thought of her determined look.
He must have been so hung up on her because he was fresh for a while, after all, she really wasn’t his type.
