Elias’ Crimes and Punishments of Romance

“And then? Now that you’re standing in front of me, don’t you have anything to say?”

Symeon gazed at the woman before him, her calm demeanor betraying no hint of admiration for him.

“Oh, handsome guy, what’s your name? You look like you’re of mixed race. Do you have a girlfriend? If not, can you consider me?”

Melissa’s tone was frivolous and perfunctory, prompting a cynical chuckle from Symeon. “Sure,”

Sure?

Given this man’s usual disposition, he would typically decline such advances, yet here he was agreeing. It left Melissa momentarily speechless.

“Are you speechless now?”

“Let’s try to date then.” Melissa approached and sat next to the man, her slender fingers grazing his shoulder.

In the next moment, Symeon swatted her hand away and stood up. “Stop pretending. Tell me, why were you following me?”

“I’ve already told you, I just like you and want to be in a relationship with you.” She raised her hand and brushed her lengthy hair, her red lips curving seductively.

He had no way to deal with such a woman, and at that point, he finally got angry. “Get out!”

“Why are you so fierce? You’re so handsome, but your temper is so bad.” Melissa stood up with a pitiful expression.

“Get out!”

Symeon didn’t want to look at her for another second. She was just causing trouble.

Melissa slowly turned away and sported a sensuous smile. Then, she left the villa.

After she left, a bodyguard walked in. “My master.”

“Keep an eye on her. She must have some ulterior motives,” Symeon said.
