Chapter 176:
Sitting still, Rupert inhaled Heather’s fragrance. It was nothing like Candy’s.
Rupert pulled his head back and gave her a murderous glare. He pushed her away and roared, “Get off me p>
The hard push jolted Heather out of her fantasy. She crashed to the floor before she knew what was happening.
A sharp pain shot from her tailbone up her back. She held her waist and looked at Rupert. The fiery rage in his eyes pierced straight through her heart like a thousand swords.
“Ouch! Rupert, why did you treat me like this?” she cried.
“Because you are a bloody liar!” Rupert’s gaze was cold and distant as he stared at her. “Do you really think you can fool me? I know you are not Candy p>
“I am Candy!” Heather shouted unwillingly.
She struggled to get up from the floor. “Last night, you kept calling me Candy. You said you loved me and that you had never loved any other woman. I tried to leave, but you begged me to stay. You kissed me passionately, and we had sex. Have you forgotten p>
Rupert’s face darkened. He glared at Heather.
Did he really call her Candy and have sex with her last night?
Rupert was certain he had never touched her.
“Heather, do you have a screw loose or something?” Rupert stood up, looking down at her. “If there’s something wrong with you up here, you should go see a psychiatrist p>
“What do you mean? Are you saying that I’m crazy?” Biting her lower lip, Heather reached out and grabbed Rupert, who was about to leave. “You were with me all night. We are both hot-blooded adults, and you were drunk. What did you think happened? You must take responsibility for what you did to me p>
“Get your hands off me,” Rupert said coldly.
But Heather only clutched his arm more tightly.
Your imagination thrives at puntocom
The fury in his eyes could have started a fire as he pushed Heather away mercilessly.
He took out his phone from his pocket.
It was turned off.
Rupert quickly turned it on. There were many missed calls and messages.
“Mr. Benton, it’s almost time for the shoot at Lover Lake. Will you be there p>
“I have been trying to reach you, Mr. Benton, but your line isn’t going through. We are on our way there. Please respond once you get this p>
These messages were all from Finley.
Rupert raised his left hand and looked at his watch. It was almost noon. He had planned to go to Lover Lake with Annabel today to supervise the shooting of the outdoor advertisement of Ice and Fire.
But he had missed it.
Rupert was upset. Why did he get drunk last night?
Just then, his phone rang. The caller was Finley.
“What’s up?” Rupert asked, pressing the phone against his ear.
