Chapter 71 A painful reminder

"You jerk..."

"If you curse again, I'll kiss you again."

I hadn't anticipated her reaction to be so intense, so in a burst of anger, I slapped her on the butt.

"Smack!"

The impact was a bit too much. My hand even went numb.

At first, she was stunned, then tears welled up in her eyes, and she seemed about to cry. I sternly said, "No crying!"

She sniffled, bit her lip, and remarkably, not a tear fell! This contrary woman, obsessed with playing hard to get!

She was clearly very fond of me, but now pretending to be so virtuous.

I gently lifted her chin and said, "It's been over a year. Even a stone would have warmed up by now! Can you honestly say you feel nothing for me? If you can look me in the eye, nod and say no, I'll finish these two projects and leave the marketing department immediately."

My palms were sweating, too. At this point, I had to go all in.
