24: Chapter 24 I Want Her to Serve Me (24)
It seems that this gentleman often deals with such matters; his assistant is already handling it with practiced ease.
Gan Yuan glanced at the check in his hand.
“The gentleman is in the room.”
He does as he pleases and then dismisses the other party with a mere check afterwards?
Pushing aside the assistant in front of her, Gan Yuan strode out of the restroom and headed straight for the master bedroom door.
By the time the assistant rushed to stop her, it was already too late; Gan Yuan had pushed open the door to the master bedroom.
Inside, Huangfu Jue was still clad in that set of soaking wet clothes, standing in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, gazing outside, lost in thought.
Hearing the sound of the door being pushed open, he assumed it was the assistant entering and didn’t even turn his face, simply tossing over two words displeasedly.
The assistant, having been by Huangfu Jue’s side for several years, of course, understood his temper.
Just by the tone of his voice, he knew that the gentleman was in a very bad mood—it was not the time to provoke him.
Gan Yuan shook off the assistant’s arm, her wet shoes stepping over the Persian carpet to come face to face with Huangfu Jue.
Hearing the assistant’s voice, Huangfu Jue turned around, eyes resting on Gan Yuan as she entered.
His gaze swept over her face, plastered with damp hair, and he narrowed his eyes ever so slightly.
At this moment, his emotions had calmed considerably.
For the first time in his life doing something like that to a woman, he knew he owed her an apology for the incident a moment ago.
“About what just happened…”
Before he could utter the words “I’m sorry,” Gan Yuan spoke up firmly.
“Cancel the contract with my son immediately!”
The apology that was on the tip of his tongue was blocked.
The pride and domineering nature ingrained within him immediately surged, taking over his thoughts once again.
He had searched almost the entire world to find a boy like Gan Tang, suitable for the role.
With the brand about to launch, he wasn’t about to let go of such an excellent model.
Gan Yuan scoffed coldly, “Huangfu Jue, listen carefully, I’m demanding this of you, not pleading with you!”
The man’s tone was obstinate, leaving no room for negotiation.
Gan Yuan gritted her teeth, “If you refuse, I’ll tell everyone that you tried to rape me!”
His blue eyes narrowed slightly, and Huangfu Jue’s expression grew even more somber.
The bastard, Gan Yuan nearly crushed her teeth in frustration.
“Fine, just wait and see!”
Turning around, she stormed towards the door.
“Miss Gan!” The assistant hurriedly followed, intercepting her before she could leave, “Miss Gan, I’m very sorry about what happened earlier, and I apologize on behalf of the Duke.
If you find the sum on the check too low, we can still negotiate…
As for what you just mentioned, I advise you against it, as it will do you no good…
You should be very clear that without any evidence, the media won’t believe you.
I think the Duke was just impulsive.
could you forgive him just this once?”
His words sounded like dissuasion, but beneath them was a veiled threat.
Gan Yuan laughed coldly, “Does the assistant sir do this often?”
The assistant’s own heart was in distress; in truth, this was an absolute first.
“I believe Miss Gan is a smart person.
Or, if you have any other requests, feel free to mention them.”
“Fine, I can act as if this never happened.” Gan Yuan said seriously, looking him in the eye, “However, I demand that your company terminates the contract with my son Gan Tang.”
Even though Huangfu Jue hadn’t recognized her this time, she wanted nothing further to do with him or her son from hereon.
