Chapter 544: Chapter 544
Eleanor Sterling headed to the restroom, but a persistent shadow followed her.
She stopped in her tracks, frowned, and asked, "I’m going to the restroom, why are you following me?"
When did this man become so clingy? He even wanted to follow her to the restroom.
"I need to go too, is that not allowed?" Alaric Faulkner replied with a teasing smile.
Eleanor looked at his shameless demeanor and couldn’t help but roll her eyes.
"President Faulkner, restrooms are divided into male and female, you’re not planning to follow me into the women’s restroom, are you?"
Eleanor suddenly squinted her eyes, flashed a sly smile, and said, "If people saw President Faulkner mistakenly running into the women’s restroom, it would definitely make the headline news."
After saying that, she felt playful and pretended to push Alaric Faulkner towards the women’s restroom.
Let’s see if he’s afraid.
Alaric even indulged her, and amidst the shoving, he was already standing at the entrance of the women’s restroom.
Eleanor looked at him and threatened, "If I scream now, you’d lose all your dignity."
"So ruthless?" Alaric smirked, seemingly not too afraid.
"Why don’t you plead for mercy? I’ll count to three, one, two, mmm..."
Eleanor couldn’t finish her third count as a big hand wrapped around her waist, and she was hugged and silenced.
She watched as Alaric led her into the women’s restroom, fortunately, it was empty at this hour.
Alaric opened one of the stalls, pushed Eleanor inside, and then closed the door.
"Alaric Faulkner, what are you doing!"
How could he just take her into the women’s restroom like that? What if someone came in?
Alaric seemed to understand Eleanor’s concerns. He placed both hands beside her, confining her between his chest and the wall.
"If people saw you and me coming out of the restroom, what do you think they’d speculate?"
Eleanor’s eyes widened as her face turned crimson.
They’d definitely assume they were doing something inappropriate in there.
Alaric reached out, caressed Eleanor’s cheek, and chuckled, "If you plead for mercy, perhaps I might let you go."
Eleanor felt a bit annoyed, wasn’t that her line earlier? Now he’s throwing it back at her!
Eleanor was about to speak when she heard movement.
Someone had actually come in.
Her eyes widened as she didn’t dare make a sound, afraid of being overheard.
However, Alaric seemed unperturbed, mischievously leaned down, and pecked Eleanor’s lips. Check latest chapters at novelꞁire.net
Eleanor glared at him, signaling for him to restrain himself.
She definitely didn’t want to be caught in the restroom with him. That kind of embarrassment, she’d rather dig a hole to hide in.
Alaric seemed to know Eleanor wouldn’t dare to make a fuss; taking advantage of the situation, he became even more brazen.
In anger, she reached out and pinched him hard on his waist.
Alaric’s handsome face twisted slightly, yet he still chuckled softly. He even leaned over and kissed Eleanor’s lips with a loud smack.
The person outside heard the noise and muttered, "What was that sound?"
Eleanor froze, not daring to move.
Outside, another voice said, "Did you hear wrong? There was no sound."
"Really? I could’ve sworn I heard something just now..."
Their voices gradually faded away, and the restroom was quiet once more.
Eleanor, confirming there was truly no one left, promptly punched Alaric once.
"Hey, are you crazy?"
He actually trapped her in the restroom to kiss her.
Alaric’s lips curled slightly as he murmured, "Weren’t you the one who started it?"
She clearly hadn’t invited Alaric into the women’s restroom.
Eleanor pushed at him, huffing, "Hurry up and leave, it won’t be good if more people come in."
Alaric leaned in, gently pecked Eleanor’s lips, and then opened the door to leave.
Eleanor clenched her fists, completely exasperated by this man.
