Chapter 10 Exercise His Rights

Bright stretch out his left hand behind her and place the cup back on the counter, making a crisp sound.

After Rose heard the sound, she felt as if something had exploded in her head. Her cheeks became
rosy as she felt embarrassed and ashamed, but she quickly calmed herself down and didn't let him
take the lead.

Bright had already let go of her waist. He placed hands on the edge of counter, confining her.

He stared at her pale face with calm and deep eyes. “Miss Linder can’t have misunderstood and
thought I was going to do things to you, right?”

Rose pretended to be very calm, but her heartbeat throbbed like a drum.

She took a deep breath secretly, smiled, and calmed her voice, beautiful and relaxed. “How could it be?
A good and polite man like Mr. Lee wouldn’t do things that don’t fit his status. Why don't we sit in the
living room?”

Facing his calmness and grace, she felt embarrassed.

Bright showed no sign of moving away, but instead lowered his head, the ridge of his nose almost
touching the tip of her nose. His eyes that were calm like mirror were obscure.

Rose didn't dare to move. She curled her thick long eyelashes slightly, leaving a silhouette on the skin
under her eyes.

Gentle warm light poured on top of their heads, dimly dying the tops of their hair, smudging their
outlines. The air was quiet.

“Really?” Bright’s hoarse voice sounded even more seducing at this moment.



“What else?” She raised her slender eyebrows lightly, broken light shining in her pupils.

She only felt the back of her head being held by his palm. He bent down, covering her red lips with his
thin lips.

The pressed down a bit heavily. When her mind was blank, he evaded her mouth, fighting a battle with
her lips and tongue, making her breathless. Rose was about to suffocate in the powerful kiss.

Before she realized, he retreated, and his eyes were clear without a trace of desire.

“This is my answer.” He used action to tell her what kind of person he was.

Rose really did not expect that he would kiss her. To be precise, it was not a gentle kiss, but a bite with
a hint of punishment.

When did she provoke him?

So much for being cold and ascetic. All nonsense.

She felt that it was better to call him a beast in human clothing.

She suppressed her anger and spoke. “Mr. Lee, thank you very much for saving me today. I respect
you, but I am not the kind of woman who go along with things and I am not the type who would sell
herself in order to reach an agreement. Let’s treat what just happened as a misunderstanding that no
one mention in the future.”

After listening to what she said, Bright smiled and applauded, but asked an irrelevant question.

“Have I kissed you like this before?”

Otherwise, how could he feel so familiar.



“?” Rose’s heartbeat skipped a beat. “This...how is this possible, hahaha, President Lee, don't be
kidding me.”

Bright stared at her carefully, his eyes sweeping over her a few times. She and the woman from that
night were completely opposites. Did he just have an illusion?

“Then between me and David…who do you think is better?”

Comparing them? What did he mean?

This topic changed so fast that Rose was confused.

“Mr. Lee and Mr. Hank are both very successful. But what does this have to do with me?”

“You and he are not a match for each other.”

Domineering, this man is too domineering!

She and David only met twice because of their work relationship.

Besides, he wasn’t in the position to decide who she should be with!

Rose felt that she shouldn't have let him in. After all, it wasn’t very appropriate for a man and a woman
to say in the same room together.

In the end, she had led the wolf into the room, and she was the one to suffer the consequences.

The important thing was that he didn't listen to her seriously at all!

“Mr. Lee—”

The door bell rang.



“It seems that your guest arrived.” Bright did not continue the discussion and turned around to leave.

Rose pushed on the edge of the counter with the back of her hand, calming herself.

She sorted out her emotions. She had no idea where Bright was hiding.

She came to the door to pick up the video phone and saw that the person standing outside the door
was David. Problems just keep coming up one after another.

Should she open the door?

If David saw Bright in her room, what would he think? It would definitely cause unnecessary
misunderstanding, so she could only find a way to get David to leave.

“Mr. Hank, do you anything from me?” Rose asked him.

“Rose, I'm sorry to disturb you at this time, but this incident happened because of me and you were
affected. I feel uneasy and hoped to see you to check if you are fine.”

David’s tone was guilty and worried.

“Mr. Hank, don’t worry. I'm fine. My plane is tomorrow morning at 8 o'clock, so I am already in bed.”
Rose used it as an excuse and said, “you should go back to rest early as well.”

“In that case, why don't I invite you for breakfast tomorrow morning, and then take you to the airport to
make up for my sins.” David spoke loudly as he made the decision.

“…” Rose wrinkled her eyebrows, slightly annoyed. “Mr. Hank, it really has nothing to do with you, and
the hotel has breakfast service. There is a shuttle to take us to the airport, so you don't have to make a
special trip to waste your time.”



“Rose, this project will last for at least half a year. Are you going to be this polite with me for the entire
time?” David smiled outside the door.

“Have a good rest tonight and see you tomorrow.”

So the decision has been made?

“Mr. Hank—”

“You said you would call me David. How could you forget?”

“Da…vid, thank you.”

“We are friends.” Rose sighed slightly and lowered her eyelashes. If Bright weren’t here, she would
definitely open the door and thank him in person.

Bright was simply a demon!

As she thought about him, a slender figure approached, and his shadow enveloped her.

Rose turned around and saw Bright put on a brand-new white shirt and a pure black suit. Even thought
it was the same outfit, it appeared very unique on him.

The nobility engraved in his bones and the boldness in him could not be matched.

What shabby gentility!

“David? Why don't you invite him in?” Bright slowly tidied up the white cuffs that showed outside the
black suit.

Rose ignored him, staring at him with watery eyes.



“Are you angry?” Bright chuckled, then reached out and opened the door.

He did not go out immediately but leaned over and pressed his thin lips against her ears. His voice was
hoarse. “I'm just exercising my rights.”

He spoke so naturally with so much confidence.

Your rights? Who the heck gave you those rights!

Rose wanted to swear.

“Bright, why are you here?”

This was David’s voice.

He didn't leave?
