You Are The Trouble I'm In

Chapter 15 Think It Over

"No, thanks." Armani wanted to take back her luggage.

"If you don't want me to drive you home, you are not allowed to go out," Ben said.

"Ben, can you stop being so childish?" What a joke! Armani rolled her eyes. This was her home. If Ben dared to restrict her personal freedom and forbid her to go out, she would dare to expose him in front of the media.

"Ben, the food is getting cold. Let's have dinner first." Edith was taken aback by what had happened. She walked up to Ben and asked him to go back with a smile. However, Ben refused her and said coldly, "I'll come back after I send her back."

Jessie said softly, "In fact, Armani also has a car. She can go anywhere she wants."

"As a distinguished guest of my family, you'd better have a rest." Armani didn't want to have anything to do with Ben. She didn't know what he was up to.

"Do you think I'm joking?" Ben came close to Armani and whispered in her ear. The breath he exhaled made her feel like ants crawling over her ears. "I've stripped you naked here. No one dares to interfere me in your family. Believe it or not?"

Armani froze and looked at him with resentment. Nôvel/Dr(a)ma.Org - Content owner.

When she was angry, her eyes were as bright as grapes. Ben really wanted to press Armani against the wall and kiss her hard on the lips. When he saw her panicked eyes wide open like a deer, he could feel a tingle climbing up from the end of his spine.

"Keep your dirty thoughts away from me." Armani slapped Ben.

The crisp sound shocked everyone.

Jessie immediately ran over and pushed Armani away, shouting, "Why do you hit Ben?" Then she touched Ben's face in panic and asked, "Honey, does it hurt? Are you ok? "

Edith and Jessie only saw that Ben leaned close to Armani and whispered a word, and then Armani gave him a slap.

"Armani! You've gone too far. Ben just wants to help you carry your luggage. You didn't appreciate his kindness, but beat him! You're just angry that I'm the executive director of the group. If you're angry with me, just vent your anger on me. Why did you do that to Ben? " Jessie sobbed sadly.

Seeing her crying, Armani was annoyed for no reason. She raised her hand to take the luggage. Ben held the luggage in his hand and gave her a mean smile.

"Well, since you want to send me, just do it." Armani turned around and went out with an umbrella in her hand. Ben took the luggage in one hand and walked out of the room with the other hand holding the umbrella between the two.

"Ben." Shouted Jessie, leaning against the door.

Ben turned around and said, "I'll be back soon. Wait for me here."

Jessie nodded obediently, "You must come back."

Sitting in the front passenger seat, Armani saw Jessie standing by the door and staring at Ben. Edith standing inside, she didn't expect that her son-in-law would leave with Armani.

"Where are we going?" Ben asked.

"The airport." Said Armani flatly.

Ben didn't say anything more and drove away.

On the way, he raised his hand and turned on the music in the car. It was Armani's favorite piano music. It was raining outside the car, but it was warm and comfortable in the car.

Armani leaned against the seat and fell asleep like a kitten.

Ben looked sideways at her innocent sleeping face, and his eyes were full of obsession.

This was his beloved woman, but why couldn't she accept the fact that he was just seduced by Jessie for a moment.

He couldn't help but think of that night when he and Jessie woke up in the hotel. He hurriedly put on his clothes and stood up. Jessie sat in the quilt and said in a low voice, "It's useless, Ben. If you beg Armani for forgiveness now, she won't forgive you at all, because she doesn't love you at all."

"What are you talking about?" Ben said angrily.

Jessie gave a winner's smile, which was totally different from her gentle and lovely appearance in the past. Her big black eyes showed intention and ambition. "If my sister really likes you, why doesn't she want to give you the business of XU Group and then marry you to have a child? If she really like you, why are you so nervous now? You know clearly that my sister will just leave you behind at any time, because you are far less important than XU Group in her heart. "

If Armani loved Ben so much and accepted his fault, he wouldn't have engaged to Jessie. He would leave everything behind and beg for Armani's forgiveness. He would marry Armani and protect her for the rest of his life.

However, there was no 'if'.

Armani was like a cat, who was always condescending and couldn't grovel. He didn't mind building a cage for her to control what she cared most and let her return to his arms obediently.

"Have we arrived?" Said Armani, opening her eyes.

"Traffic jam. What time is your flight?" Ben looked ahead. There was a red light at the distant intersection, and a long queue of carriages were blocking the intersection. They had been waiting here for ten minutes.

"Eight o'clock." Replied Armani.

Ben looked sideways at her and said, "The plane will take off at eight o'clock in the evening. Do you have to leave at three o'clock in the afternoon with your things?"

"Thanks to someone, my family is in a mess now. Do you think it's necessary for me to waste time there?" Said Armani with a sneer.

Ben smiled and said, "It's all my fault. Is it useful to apologize to you now?"

Armani glanced at him and looked out of the window. She didn't even respond to him.

When they arrived at the airport hall, Ben still took her luggage with him. He looked at Armani and said in a low voice, "Armani, you are in a bad mood. I'll let you go these days. When you come back, I hope you can bring one result so that neither of the two of us will regret."

Armani raised her eyebrows and asked, "What do you mean?"

"I would rather destroy what I can't get." Ben stared at her with a gentle smile. "If you don't want to see XU Group go bankrupt and your father be cursed by others, you should consider my previous suggestion carefully."

"Don't talk too early. You want to swallow my group and I will see if you have the appetite. Don't push yourself too hard," said Armani with a cold and stern look

"I'm afraid that I will suffer from indigestion if I swallow XU Group. Now I just want to taste you. You're the best." After saying that, Ben pulled Armani to him, kissed her forehead, then he turned around and left smartly.

After a short pause, Armani stamped her feet with anger and rushed into the washroom to wash her face.

'This disgusting man dared to kiss me.' She felt that her forehead was as disgusting as a toad crawling.

She looked at herself in the mirror, with red eyes and clenched teeth, like a trapped beast forced to the corner. It was said that she was the luckiest woman in the world. Everyone admired her since she was a child. When had she been forced to such a situation and made her so embarrassed?

It was her father's fault. In order to let Armani take over the company, he gave her most of the shares, so that Jessie and Edith had no chance to interfere in the company's affairs at all. He didn't expect that Ben had already prepared to purchase the shares of the individual investors on the market. Plus the shares in the hands of Jessie and Edith, he had successfully suppressed Armani and taken away the position of executive director.

The company seemed to be under the control of Jessie, but in fact, it was all under the control of Ben. Moreover, Ben didn't want the company at all. He just wanted Armani to forgive him and be with him. Therefore, the company that Armani cared about most had become his powerful bargaining chip, and Armani could do nothing about it.
