Chapter 150 - Just Become My Lover?

When the two men, Gavin and Kevin, said goodbye to the ladies, Berry excitedly pulled her friends towards the building. Upon reaching Brione's dressing room, Berry didn't waste any more time.

She grabbed a chair for Mitch and let her sit down. Her eyes were brimming with curiosity. She was not able to have a good sleep right now as Mitch continued to ignore her queries.

"You are not going anywhere today Mitch without answering me!" Berry said, holding her shoulders. There was a playful smile on her face.

Brione could only shake her head while giggling. Berry would not let Mitch escape her interrogation today.

On the other hand, Mitch was watching Berry in disbelief. She was really eager to get an answer from her.

"What happened on your date? Tell us!" Berry asked in her demanding tone.

Mitch rolled her eyes skyward because of Berry's persistence.

"It's just a typical date, Berry. We ate lunch in a restaurant. We watched a movie in the movie theater. We walked and strolled around the park. That's it! Are you happy now?"

Berry and Brione watched her intently. Not convinced by her answer. They were expecting something more.

"Come on, Mitch! Tell us more. How is Kevin as your date? Is he fun to talk to? Did he get bored? Don't tell me you didn't follow my advice?" Berry bombarded her with so many questions.

Brione also nodded her head, anticipating Mitch's reply.

At the mention of Kevin, Mitch couldn't help but blush.

"I knew it! Something more happened! See, your face is blushing! Hahaha. What did he do to you, Mitch?!" Berry said cheerfully, teasing her.

"OMG, don't tell me? He made a move on you in the movie theater? The place is very dark. He could do anything he wanted there!" she added, making Mitch's face reddened more.

"Berry, stop it! Your lewd mind is kicking in again! Nothing happened! We just watched a movie. Besides, Kevin is a true gentleman! He is very thoughtful and fun to talk to." Mitch defended.

"Sigh, I wish he was not!" Berry said, feeling a little bit disappointed.

"Me too. I agree. Didn't he kiss you?" Brione also joined the conversation.

"Brione! Even you??!" Mitch complained exasperatedly.

Brione and Berry let out soft giggles after seeing Mitch's scarlet red face.

"I guess he kissed her. She doesn't want to tell us." Berry said, trying to catch Mitch in her own mouth.

Brione winked at Berry. "Hmm, yes, I think so too. Mitch is hiding something from us. So unfair. I didn't hide anything from you about me and Gavin."

Mitch could only sigh in defeat.

"Alright. I'll talk. Kevin and I had a lot of fun. He was very considerate of me. I asked him if he did regret asking me out. But he said I made his day special. Then… then he kissed me."

"Waaah! He kissed you!!!" Berry and Brione screamed in unison.

Mitch glared at the two women. She was not yet done speaking but they reacted right away and assumed everything.

"He kissed me but just on my forehead!!!" Mitch corrected them. Then she took a deep sigh.

"Forehead?" Brione asked.

"Only in the forehead?" Berry repeated.

Mitch only bobbed her head as a response.

Soon the three ladies heaved a frustrated sigh.

"He should have kissed you on the lips," Brione said.

"How I wish," Mitch seconded.

Berry squinted her eyes at Mitch. "If you are disappointed, then you should have grabbed his head and kissed his lips instead! I told you to become more aggressive!" She slightly scolded her.

Mitch: "..."

Mitch was still in a hot seat when the door of the dressing-room swung open and an uninvited guest entered the room, thus interrupting the three ladies.

Brione's expression became sour upon seeing Derek's face. He immediately went to see Brione when he learned from his assistant that Brione already arrived in the building.

Derek still looked mad. Mitch and Berry didn't know what to say. They could tell that he was still pissed off by yesterday's incident wherein Brione's lawyer came to talk about the termination of her contract.

"Both of you leave! I just want to talk to Brione. Alone!" CEO Derek ordered Mitch and Berry to leave with his stern cold voice.

Mitch and Berry were reluctant to leave Brione because they didn't know what their angry CEO might do to her. But Brione just gave them a reassuring smile as if telling them she could handle Derek so it's okay if they would leave them.

Getting the signal from Brione, Berry and Mitch left the room quietly, looking worried about Brione.

When they left, Derek locked the room from the inside, making sure no one would interrupt his conversation with Brione. He immediately confronted her.

"Was it true? You want to terminate your contract with us?" 

Derek didn't look happy about it. He gazed at Brione with his sharp eyes. He walked over to approach her.

"Yes! I believe my lawyer already talked to you about this."

A cold glint flashed through Derek's eyes when he heard it from Brione personally.

Upon closing their gaps, Derek grabbed Brione's wrist. Using his free hand, he held her chin.

"You are our company's greatest star. Do you think I will allow you to terminate your contract with us? No way, Brione! I will never let you go."

Brione tried to struggle against her grasp. "Let go of me, CEO Derek. Be mindful of your actions!"

Derek just sneered at her. "I already told you that I like you. Why are you playing hard to get, Brione? Do you want to throw away this company that helped you reach your position just because you are already famous now?"

"This is your fault. You forced me to do this. You are making me feel uncomfortable! Let go of my hand now. This is my last warning!"

But Derek refused to listen. "I am the one warning you, Brione. You can't terminate your contract with us. I would not allow you unless you want me to ruin your reputation!"

"What are you talking about?"

"We are the only two people here. I can make the public believe that you tried to seduce me. When you failed, you tried to create a fuss by terminating your contract with us."

"You are crazy, Derek! Everyone already knows that Gavin Wu is my man. Why would I seduce someone like you?"

"I am a CEO and a Chairman, Brione. Gavin Wu is just a news anchor! I am better than him!"

"Why don't you just become my lover?" Derek suggested, with a cheeky smile on his face.

Pak!

Brione reached her limit. She could no longer tolerate him so she slapped Derek hard.

"How dare you slap me?!!" 

Derek felt really insulted because of that slap. He grabbed Brione's arm and pushed her on the wall, pinning her both arms on the side.

He was about to force himself on her and harass Brione. But he didn't anticipate that Brione could fight him. Raising her leg, she threw him a hard kick on his balls.

"Aaaah!!!" Derek's painful scream echoed inside her dressing room.
