Lover Forced The Ruler

Chapters 37. Mr. Kent Warns

“Say, what price do I have to pay for Lisle to be free from you?” Ralph said directly without further ado. His eyes look challenging.

Kennard looked unaffected. His gaze was cold as he turned to Ralph. “Do I look like I'm short of money? Even if you give the whole Caldwel family fortune, I have no intention of letting it go,” Kennard said. His smile looks mocking.

A waiter carries a drink in a glass in a tray. He offered to the two who appeared to be speaking seriously. Ralph refused, and Kennard took a glass.

Not far from there Aland Caldwel felt uneasy. He didn't really listen to the conversation of some people who were discussing a project with him. His eyes were constantly watching Ralph, hoping that the youngster would not say something that would offend lord Kent.

Ralph laughed wryly. Mr. Kent is not an easy man. “Is that not too much? I heard you never let a girl stay by your side for too long, especially if that girl starts acting out there.

Kennard tilted his face slightly, looking interested. What can the girl do? Even without supervision, Lisle would be as obedient as her pet rabbit. He knew, the man in front of him was just hunching. “Hm, what do you mean?”

Seen a grin Ralph. He seemed happy to see Mr. Kent interested in his words. “ She said that she has a boyfriend. Is that you? Or does she have a relationship with someone else?”

“Ah, apparently it is! We were indeed dating. Then why? You mind?” Kennard was not happy.

If the person Lisle refers to as her boyfriend is her, somehow for Kennard it's not a problem. It's just that she's not sure Lisle thinks of her as a boyfriend. The girl had always thought of him as the one who had already taken away her freedom. He knew that the girl felt compelled to stay by his side.

Ralph didn't think Mr. Kent could be so fond of Lisle. Is this guy's love as big as Ralph's love for the girl? Because it seems Mr. Kent ignored all his habits all along.

“If you guys are indeed dating, why did you come with another girl tonight?” Ralph became annoyed because Mr. Kent seemed to be just messing around with Lisle. This man claims to be dating Lisle but comes to a party with another girl.

“She's a humble girl. She doesn't want our relationship exposed.” Kennard was getting fed up with the man in front of him.

“Omong empty. You're just playing with him!” Ralph became furious. Which girl will hide from the world while she is the lover of Mr. Kent? “You must have forced him to stay with you.”

“People talk, Ralph Caldwin. You have no right at all to interfere in my affairs.” Kennard's rails went dark. This man really has the courage of a man who is drunk with love. He wanted to know if his girl would be touched if he found out today Ralph had asked her out of Kennard's hands.

“Ralph, you're here.” Aland Caldwin suddenly came closer. He looked like he didn't understand what was going on. “Master Kent,” said as he nodded politely.

Kennard only responded with a flat face, downing liquid from his glass to the toilet. He placed the empty glass on a tray that a waiter who happened to pass by carried.

“Mr Caldwin, you better teach your sister some manners before bringing her to the business banquet. Otherwise, you will lose many opportunities to get many cooperation projects in the future,” Kennard said sharply full of warning and left two brothers Caldwel.

“What have you done?” Sizzle Aland at Ralph while his eyes are not separated from the sturdy body that runs between the guests.

“I just said that he had forced the girl to stay with him. If he just wants to play around with her..”.

“It's none of your business, Ralph!” Aland turned to his sister and felt sorry for taking this young man to the party. He should have known there would be nothing good to expect by letting Ralph talk to Mr. Kent.

Ralph was deep in his own thoughts. He ignores Aland's annoyance and abandons his brother. “I go home first,” he said without looking again.

***

Lisle was still awake when the car carrying Kennard returned to Palm Garden. He heard the sound of a car engine stopping outside and exposed the window curtain beside him. Kennard was out of the car. Lisle resumed her work of completing her college assignments.

Before long the door of the workspace was opened. Kennard stepped in while taking off his suit, throwing it onto the sofa opposite Lisle. “You still haven't slept?” The man sat next to Lisle, observing the scattered sheets of paper.

“It's done,” said Lisle while tidying the papers in front of him. He smelled alcohol in the air.

Is Kennard drunk? No, he doesn't look drunk. He just looks handsome as usual. Lisle's mind was busy arguing. Unknowingly he shook his own.

“What do you think?” Kennard looked at Lisle's contorted forehead as if he was thinking of something serious.

“Nothing...” Lisle didn't dare look at Kennard. He knew the man was watching him.

When he was about to get up his waist was hugged by an arm and pulled. Lisle sat in Kennard's lap.

“You smell once.” Kennard sniffed the girl's shoulder, content to remember Ralph. The young man desperately wanted this girl in his arms. Don't dream! his inner.

“Ken...” As usual, Lisle became nervous. The fragrance of this man's perfume mixed with the smell of alcohol. He does not look drunk but his behavior then makes Lisle think that Kennard is drunk.

Kennard's hug tightens.  He grabbed Lisle's face and lowered his head, kissing passionately.

This girl is mine. I can touch it whenever I want.

Kennard imagined the envious gazes of the men who wanted this girl, making him even more excited.

 The man deepened his kiss, breaking Lisle's resistance of trying to lock his mouth.

“Mmpt...” There was an indistinct murmur of Lisle. The girl simply clenched her fingers, crossed arms between their bodies, making for self-protection.

Lisle felt Kennard's warm palm wander everywhere, making her start to tremble.

Kennard's never been this positive. Sometimes she did like to tease him with long kisses, leaving Lisle out of breath. This time this man was a little rude and brash.

As soon as the kiss stopped silencing her face but instead went down to her neck and collar, Lisle thrashed. He smacked the man's chest. “Ken... What are you doing? Stop over. Please stop...” Lisle was stung by the desire that arrived later. Not only was he struggling to fight the man, but he was also trying to face himself who was beginning to betray.
