Nothing Matters, except YOU & Me

Chapter 258

As he spoke, his hands roamed around as he touched Estelle.

Estelle’s face was beet red, and she used all her strength to ruthlessly slap the man’s misbehaving

hands away. Gritting her teeth, she spat out, “You wish! Get your filthy hands off of me!”

“Well, it seems like you know me quite well, Estelle. In that case…” His hands had already left her

body, but he suddenly turned back, and the corners of his lips curled up. “There’s still a lot of time left

tonight, so why don’t we continue… What do you say?”

“You son of a b*tch!” Estelle cursed as she glared at the nasty man in front of her.

If she had known this man’s true nature, even if someone gave her a boost of courage, she wouldn’t

have dared to provoke him!

Now, she was beyond regretful!

Taking deep breaths, Estelle managed to calm herself. She restrained herself from slapping the man’s

face, which should’ve looked indifferent but currently contained a touch of scorn instead.

“Shawn, return my phone to me!”

Shawn abruptly narrowed his eyes, and a hint of danger filled his gaze. “Why? Do you still want to call

the person you went on a blind date with today?”

“It’s none of your business!” Estelle grunted, then reached for the phone on the bedside table.

Shawn, however, was one step faster and got hold of her phone.

Noticing how furious she was, he chuckled, then placed a peck on her lips before slowly turning on her

phone and saying, “Estelle, have you forgotten what I said to you just now? I can ignore what

happened last time, but what happens after… Hehe.”

He gave a light laugh, but his gaze was so intense that it was hard not to look at him.

As she thought of how he stopped during the most heated moment to torture her and force her to agree

to those matters, Estelle’s face was flushed!

“You…” Estelle glared at him, then rolled her eyes. Knowing that Shawn was a man of his word, she

quickly changed her methods and pouted. “I just want to call Myra. Will you please give me my phone?”

Shawn simply let out a low chuckle and wrapped his fingers around Estelle’s long hair while patting her

pink cheeks. “Miss Stark probably doesn’t have time to talk to you right now.”

Estelle felt a little helpless, but she hissed through gritted teeth, “Shawn, you have no right to deprive

me of my rights. I said that I don’t want to be with you! Don’t you understand human language?”

Shawn’s slender eyes narrowed instantly, and the darkness pooling inside them was as black as ink.

Usually, when he acted like this, Estelle knew that he was angry.

Whenever he got angry, the consequences were severe!

Estelle shrank back. Just as she was wondering how to quickly extinguish his anger, the man in front of

her suddenly displayed a touch of helplessness and… affection!

If Estelle wasn’t mistaken, he was doting on her!

“Estelle, tell me. Why don’t you want to go back to the Hart Residence with me? If you don’t want to

marry me now, we can just get engaged. Wouldn’t that be okay?”

While Estelle was in a dazed state, Shawn had already pulled her into an embrace.

His eyes contained a deep and unwavering sense of tenderness, which momentarily made Estelle

forget about his true nature. Holding her hands out to push his chest away, she stammered, “W-wait…

Why should I go back to the Hart Residence with you… And… why should I get engaged to you?”

When her hands came into contact with Shawn’s chest, the heat was so intense that she hurriedly drew

her hands back.

If Shawn was acting beastly, Estelle could still make a scene, but currently, Shawn… She silently

chided herself for having absolutely no strength to fight against him when he was being like this!

Shawn saw how bold and righteous Estelle was from the beginning, and how her eyes darted back and

forth as she began blushing a little.

When Estelle wasn’t looking, Shawn slightly narrowed his eyes. He had to admit that Elliot’s secret Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org exclusive © material.

courting methods were certainly effective.

He gave Estelle a gentle smile, rendering her completely stunned.

Shawn was a little amused. Lowering his head, he placed another peck on her lips. Then, he gently

wrapped his arms around her body and ignored her protests as he gripped her hands. “Estelle, aren’t

you afraid of others coming to steal me?”

“Steal you… I can’t wait for someone to take you away!” Estelle’s soul had almost left her body, but she

persisted stubbornly.

“But, I’m afraid that someone will steal you, Estelle…” Shawn’s voice was low, and his hot breath was

blowing on her neck, causing her whole body to shudder a little.

One of his hands suddenly moved downward while the other held up Estelle’s chin. In a flash, his thin

lips covered hers and he began to entangle himself with her.

“Let’s get engaged first, okay?” His movements were soft but arousing.

Estelle felt as if she was floating on clouds; about to forget everything. She kept her mouth shut and

remained silent.

“You can’t let me treat you unjustly, right? I’m already thirty-seven. Estelle, don’t you know how my

family threatens me? But, I only like you…” Muttering these passionate words, Shawn fixed his warm

gaze on her.

Perhaps Estelle didn’t notice, but even though she said she didn’t like him, her body’s honest reaction

showed how much she depended on him.

“You only like… me?” Estelle’s vision turned blurry.

“Yes, I only like you, Estelle. So, get engaged to me first, okay?” Shawn patiently induced.

Estelle’s brows were tightly furrowed, and she seemed to be struggling violently and hesitating. Shawn,

however, was patient as he kissed her, and he stretched out a hand to smoothen the crease between

her eyebrows.

Gradually, Estelle exhaled as if she was giving up, then suddenly turned around. “Fine! We’ll get

engaged! But, if I find out that you go around looking for other women while we’re engaged, then I’ll

definitely hang you up and castrate you!”

A smile appeared on Shawn’s face, and he felt like he had prevailed. Tilting Estelle’s head downward,

he placed his thin lips on hers. “What a demanding little sprite!”

“Ahh…”

Estelle tightly grasped the phone in her hand, and her face was twisted into a horrifying expression. “I

can’t believe that heartless bastard, Shawn, actually made me say such things last night! Myra, you’re

heartless as well! It’s your fault for not coming to save me! Everything’s great now. I promised to get

engaged to Shawn, but how can I? Now, he has a death grip on me. After the engagement, I can

already imagine how miserable I’m going to be…”

It was almost noon when Estelle finally got out of bed.

Undoubtedly, Shawn had already gone to work at this hour.

She was supposed to guest star on a show today, but now that she had so many hickeys at the base of

her neck, she had to put off the invitation. Feeling down, she called Myra.

Myra felt a little guilty. Last night, she had indeed ‘carelessly’ betrayed her friend.

She coughed lightly, then, in an attempt to comfort her friend, she said, “Estelle, in the first place, didn’t

you say that you can’t have anyone other than Deputy Mayor Hart? In fact, I think that those ex-

boyfriends of yours aren’t as good as him. Not to mention, next time, you might not be able to meet

someone like him. So, why can’t you be with him?”

“Why should I be with him?!” As Estelle thought of how wicked that man was, her heart tightened. “I

admit that I can’t contain a man like Shawn. Men who can’t be contained are like clouds, and you know

that I like the feeling of having everything under my control.”
