On Fire

Chapter 16 Spend the Night with Me



Chapter 16 Spend the Night with Me

I just arrived at the staircase when a big hand seized me. I stiffened but was ready to hit back, out of

instincts. What stopped me from hitting back was a chiselled face looking at me at close range and

carrying a slight smile.

“Mr. Quinn, it’s you!” I was astonished.

“Are you very surprised?” When he realized that I recognized him, Kenneth Quinn quickly let go of me.

Then he stared at my face and commented with a frown, “Hmm, I think you look better without

makeup.” All text © NôvelD(r)a'ma.Org.

“… makeup is for work.” I mocked.

“Well, the saying goes, ‘a girl dolls herself up for her admirer’, your makeup is so ugly, because you

don’t have an admirer, do you?”

“Er … it isn’t so bad, or?” I touched my face, feeling deeply embarrassed. Luckily, it was already dark,

otherwise, he would notice that I was blushing.

“Ugly, it’s horrendous!” He even pinched my face, I stepped back and protested in a girlish manner. It

felt a lot like we were flirting at that scene.

“Hey, Mr. Quinn, welcome, welcome. I’m Molly, the manager here. May I ask, are you here by yourself?

Would you like a big room or small one?”

Even before the high-pitched voice from my back came to stop, Molly had already past where I was

standing. Her sexy body glided graciously towards Mr. Quinn. Standing in front of him now, with

exaggerated movements, she wanted to caress his body.

“Go away!”

Kenneth commanded icily, along with a cold expression. Molly dared not trifle with Kenneth, she

retreated quickly and bowed, half respectfully, half-jokingly. Kenneth reached out for my hand and

announced in a volume that was neither too loud nor too soft.

“Next time when I visit, remember to appear right on time. Otherwise, I’ll search the whole place

“Okay!”

I did not comprehend why he was so kind to me. I had to admit though, the unfriendly stare he gave

Molly earlier on brought me some secret satisfaction. Even though I had not wanted to stoop so low as

to have a competition with Molly, it did not mean that I like her. I was secretly gleeful over her being

disfavored.

When I glanced back at her, I saw that her expression was as cold as frost. Inexplicably, it sent

uncomfortable vibes in my heart. At this place, having an enemy could be a very dangerous affair.

Then I noticed that Kenneth was staring at me the whole time, I asked uneasily, “Mr. Quinn, how big is

your party? How big a room do you require?”

“Just myself!”

“… then let me get you a small room.”

I led him into a small room. Just as we barely stepped into the room, he pressed me against the wall.

He started kissing me forcefully. That caught me off guard completely, yet I did not push him away.

Firstly, it was because I had in mind what Toby Jones told me before, if I could get close to Kenneth

Quinn, who was an important figure, it would basically mean that I had my ticket to security. Secondly, I

was very curious why his minty breath was so strong.

“Jess, spend the night with me, would you?” He released the kiss on my lips and whispered this

question.
