Chapter 148 - escape

"Then, you have to take responsibility. Marry me! *hic*"

Dragon smirks seeing her merry flushed face in a closer look. He must admit that she looks rather cute and charming.

"Can you offer me anything?"

Seraphina slightly tilted her head in confusion. She wordlessly blinks a couple of times as she seems to ponder about his words. Seeing her innocent look in between her hiccups, Dragon let out a light chuckle.

"Little Miss, if we are talking about marriage… don't you think our current position is inappropriate for our discussion?" referring to her who's literally on top of him as she was proposing, his brows raised.

"Ohhh…" she acknowledges yet, Seraphina didn't budge a bit which made Dragon's brows knitted. Hence, Dragon was forced to hold her shoulders, assisting her to seat properly.

As they both straighten their posture, Dragon leisurely crosses his legs as he turns his head to his side. While Seraphina on the other hand charmingly acted to be prim and proper.

"Now little girl, tell me who sent you. If you speak now, I'll spare you." Dragon was done playing with her thus, he got down to business bearing his aloof and cold demeanor. The spacious room immediately developed a bone-chilling atmosphere. Yet, Seraphina was unruffled with his change of attitude.

"Beauty, it's your fault for letting me have a glimpse of you! I have a keen sense of smell to beauties like you!" Seraphina spoke in a matter-of-factly tone. She was about to leave earlier, alas, she indeed had a glimpse of his attractive side profile, which urges her to follow him. She added,

"You know beauty, I am supeeer happy I wanted to get married! hehe."

"Is that so?"

"Yes! Because I get to be myself! I can wear this cute dress and I am not fat anymore!"

Just as she prattle about the cause of her jubilation, the door was slammed open. Few men in a suit appeared right before their eyes with a gun aiming at them or rather to her. However, Seraphina had a rather confused look instead of fear. She slightly leaned closer beside her, she whispers,

"Beauty, did you offend someone?"

Although her words were supposed to be a whisper, alas, since she was drunk, her words were audible enough to reach the ears of the men in suit. Their faces twitch hearing her audacious words to their Big Boss.

'Miss, don't you see who are we aiming?'

"I don't think so. Maybe, they got the wrong room." Dragon's brows raised seeing her unfazed reaction. He then glances at his men as if giving them a warning. His men immediately notice his hint thus, they reluctantly lowered their guns as they complain deep in their hearts.

'Boss, there is only one room here.' Unbeknownst to everyone's knowledge, their thoughts actually unite telepathically. The last time the enemy sent a woman to seduce Dragon, she ends up being thrown to the lowest of the ranks in the famiglia to have a feast with her.

In retrospect, no woman got close to him even if they throw themselves n_a_k_e_d. Which cause the rumor that dragon was gay and likes men. However, now, he was actually covering the girl up. Though she looks harmless and innocent, they could not be deceived by her appearance since she has beaten up their colleague.

Seeing that the men in a suit were distracted, Dragon senses an ominous aura emitting from the girl beside him. Before his thoughts could process, Seraphina kicks the small table. Her kick was evidently powerful as it flew in his men's direction.

Everyone was caught off guard to her assault including Dragon. By the next second, she grabs Dragon's hand and drags him outside. Dragon was stunned by the unexpected strength of her small hand that was gripping his. Just when he was about to stop her tracks, she reassured.

"Beauty, don't worry. Your husband will protect you!" though they were literally running, her genuine smile suddenly had an impact on his heart. It made him in a daze as his body unconsciously followed her command.

Glancing at the hallway, some of his men that guarding the place were knocked out. He then shifts his indiscernible gaze to the person in front of him who's holding his hand as they both escape.

'Who are you?' he unconsciously questioned.
