Hiding Behind Her Superficiality by Kyla Olson

Chapter 628 Lockdown

“Aw, what’s the hurry? Are you worried I might do something to you?” Frank crossed his legs nonchalantly. “I’m a gentleman. I won’t do anything to you unless you tell me to.”

Raquella was getting a headache. “No. I just think it’s impolite that you barge into a lady’s house unannounced. You’re a stranger.”

“Stranger? I’m your boss.”

He had a point. He was Elspeth’s relative, and Elspeth gave him a good position in the company, making him her boss.

“Not when it’s not working hours.”

Frank looked at the time and clicked his tongue. “It’s 7.45AM. You have forty-five minutes left till work begins. Not that much longer till working hours.”

Raquella couldn’t do anything about that. “What will it take for you to leave?”

“Easy.” Frank got up and approached her. “Give me a kiss.”

He huddled closer. At that moment, Raquella finally gave him a slap. It was a loud one too. Frank was flabbergasted. He didn’t expect Raquella to actually slap him. Holding his cheek, he looked like a victim.

Raquella didn’t think she would actually slap him. That was just instinct, and she felt a little guilty seeing him so hurt. “I didn’t mean to. You were just annoying.”

Frank hung his head low. “You can’t just hit me.”
