However, Kevin did not care about her feelings and tore off her pajamas.

When his calloused hand touched her lower back, she screamed in fear.

"Kevin!"

The deafening scream stopped Kevin's probing hand.

But he only paused for a moment before pulling at her clothes again.

Amelia regretted that she didn’t bring a baseball bat to beat him to death.

"Kevin, if you dare to rape me tonight, I promise you'll see me in court tomorrow!"

Kevin's hand paused again, but then he sneered, as if he had heard a great joke.

"I'm not even worried about the cops. You think I'd be afraid of seeing you in court?"

Amelia clenched her fists, "I know your family is powerful, but I have my way. If you use your connections to fix me, I swear I'll make your scandal public!!"

"Sure, go ahead. It's been a while since I made headlines anyway," Kevin raised an eyebrow and smirked.

Kevin was clearly not threatened at all. Amelia suddenly felt a strong sense of powerlessness. This bastard was not just some random pervert but a rich and powerful man. He could easily change the narratives in news. If she fought with him head-on, it would be like throwing an egg against a rock.

Amelia couldn't match his strength, nor did she have his strong background and power. To save herself, she would have to use some tricks.

Amelia softened her voice, "Mr. Harris, I didn't mean to threaten you with anything. It's just that I don't feel comfortable sleeping with someone I don't love."

Hearing this, Kevin seemed a bit more relaxed. But he would not let go of his prey so easily.

"Oh yeah? But I can’t wait to f*ck you." He gave a peck on Amelia's collarbone.

Amelia felt extremely disgusted, yet she had no choice but to endure it at the moment.

"How about giving me some time? So I can get used to it. When I fall in love with you, things will get easier. If you force me now, it won't be as pleasant for me."

Kevin was not convinced, "It doesn't matter. As long as I enjoy it."

What a cheeky jerk…

Amelia resisted the urge to slap Kevin as she continued to persuade him, "But Mr. Harris, sex with feelings is definitely better. Don't you want to try it?"

Kevin was not a fool. He knew Amelia was only talking to him like this because she wanted to run away from him.

He always thought Amelia was just dumb tits, never expecting her to be quite smart. It was interesting how she immediately changed her strategy when she noticed threats didn’t work with him.

Kevin tilted his head and stared at Amelia for a while, "Whatever. Sex is sex, it won't feel too different."

"...believe me, it’s totally different. Only when two people truly love each other can they get a taste of that kind of sex."

Kevin leaned closer to Amelia, "Did you get a taste of that?"

Amelia froze for a second. The memory of James holding her in his arms flashed through her mind, and her heart suddenly ached.

If James knew about this… If he knew a pervert was trying to force himself on her, what would he do?

Would he be angry? Jealous? Or...

She tried to imagine how he’d feel. But a voice told her that he would not feel any of these things.

Kevin sneered at Amelia’s silence, "You want me to wait until you fall in love with me? That’s cute."

He hunted for prey to satisfy his desire. He had no time to develop feelings and all that crap for those women! Ridiculous, and too much trouble.

Amelia felt a bit defeated, but seeing the desire in Kevin’s eyes was not as strong as before, she tried to persuade on.

"Mr. Harris… How about three months? When I fall in love with you, I will be happy to sleep with you, okay?"

"No." Kevin refused curtly, "I can't wait for that long."

But Amelia sensed that there was still room for negotiation, "Two months, then?"

Kevin touched her cheek when he saw Amelia’s eyes suddenly lit up, "Three days."

He would like to do her right now, but she was right. It would not feel so great if he forced her. It might be exciting in a way, but if he wanted to do it with her in more ways…he would have to put in some effort.

Sure, he’d let her get used to it first. It wouldn't hurt to wait a few days. He’d get more time to prepare some stuff, too…

After all, a smart and pretty woman like Amelia should be enjoyed thoroughly.
