Chapter 90: Victoria's Offer

"Aaron, stop!"

It takes a lot of effort for Katrina to push Aaron away from her.

When she gets up from the sofa, she already looks a bit scruffy, and her long silky hair is a little messy.

If she hadn't been so determined to resist, Aaron would've dared take things further with her in the office.

While Katrina tidies up her clothes, she suddenly catches Aaron's half-smile and burning eyes. She's surprised, wary that the dangerous man will consume her and wipe her clean.

"Aaron, take your time. I'll go back first."

Katrina doesn't dare look him in the eye. She hurriedly bids him goodbye and runs away quickly.

As Aaron watches the slender fleeing figure, a slight smile appears on his handsome and charming face. His eyes fill with unspoken love.

The food on the table is getting cold, but he doesn't waste a bite.

It's the first time that Katrina cooked for him herself.

The ordinary home-cooked meal she made seems more delicious.

One of the dishes is sprinkled with some coriander to add flavor. But Aaron hates coriander the most. He picks the coriander out of the dish and finishes the rest.

Katrina runs out of Aaron's office and goes downstairs.

She came over to deliver dishes to Aaron, but she almost got eaten by him as a dish. Although he didn't succeed, she was still taken advantage of several times.

Why does she feel molested?

Fortunately, she succeeded in winning him over.

Aaron was in a good mood when she left, so her efforts weren't in vain.

As soon as Katrina walks out the entrance, Aaron's heelers who have been waiting outside immediately come over to greet her. "Miss Miller."

Katrina nods at them as she prepares to get into the car when a red Porsche next to her blows its horn. Looking up, she sees the car window rolling down.

Victoria's arm drapes over the window, and her red lips part, "Miss Miller, I need to talk to you."

Katrina is surprised. She thought that Victoria had already left.

"Miss Miller." Before Katrina responds, the heelers call her name worriedly.

After all, Victoria is the mayor's daughter, who grew up spoiled and had a strong personality.

The heelers are afraid that Victoria will cause trouble for Katrina. It would put them in a dilemma if they should help Katrina or not.

Katrina smiles at them rea.s.suringly. "I'm going to ask Miss Roberts how to make dessert. Could you wait for me here? I'll come back soon."

When hearing this, the two heelers exchange looks before finally nodding in agreement.

Maybe they're worrying too much.

Perhaps the two ladies really do have something to talk about.

After all, Miss Miller is alone in a foreign country, with no relatives, close friends, or even a female friend she can talk to.

Some topics are only suitable to discuss with another woman. It may be a good way for Miss Miller to communicate with a peer.

They just need to make sure not to let Miss Miller out of their sight.

Katrina gets into the pa.s.senger seat of the red Porsche, and the two men wait outside patiently.

Katrina turns to look at Victoria. "Miss Roberts, can you close the window?"

She knows that Victoria doesn't like her. She most likely stayed behind because she's angry to see her close relationship with Aaron.

Luckily, Katrina also has something to tell Victoria that isn't convenient to be overheard by someone else.

Victoria's pretty face flickers with a little shock when she hears Katrina's request. But she soon composes herself and closes all the windows.

Victoria didn't find her for a friendly chat. She is more unwilling than Katrina to let Aaron's heelers hear her. She thought that Katrina would be reluctant, but she doesn't expect her to get into the car and ask to close the windows.

As soon as the windows are closed, Victoria says aggressively, "Katrina, although I don't know where you came from, I can tell you clearly that a man like Aaron would never love a woman like you.

"No matter what method you use to seduce and confuse his heart, he's only temporarily interested in you. When he gets tired of you, he's sure to throw you away. Be sensible, and leave him already! Don't wait for the time when you'll end up in tears!"

Victoria's voice grows louder and louder as she rants. By the end, she's gritting the words through her teeth.

Katrina is unimpressed with Victoria's threat. "Thanks for the reminder, Miss Roberts."

Seeing Katrina's calm att.i.tude, Victoria's eyes flash with anger.

Victoria just started a quarrel with the woman sitting beside her. She doesn't expect the woman to be so calm and patient. She gets the feeling that all her attacks would only hit soft cotton.

Holding back her anger, Victoria says, "A woman like you who keeps throwing herself at Aaron has only one goal: his money. How much do you want?"

"Miss Roberts, I don't want your money."

"You!" In the face of Katrina's refusal, Victoria suddenly loses her temper, and her tone becomes sharp.

"Although Aaron may protect you now when he isn't by your side, I can kill you as easily as killing an ant! While I'm in the mood to talk to you now, you'd better be sensible so that you won't endeavor for nothing!"

The whole time Victoria is angry, Katrina is calm and reserved.

"Miss Roberts, I don't want your money, but I do have something to ask you."

What can be more important than money for Katrina?

She'll most likely seize the chance and ask for an exorbitant price.

Although she's distraught, Victoria holds her anger and says disdainfully, "Tell me!"

She wants to know what Katrina wants.

"Miss Roberts, I know you like Aaron and regard me as your imaginary rival, but I'm telling you now that I don't want to stay with Aaron at all."

She doesn't want to stay with Aaron?

Upon hearing this, Victoria's eyebrows furrowed in confusion.

"What do you mean?"
