My Pretty Sweetheart (Arianna)

"Are you a broken record?" Jordan frowned. Annoyance was written all over his face.

I did not respond as my chirpy mood was completely gone now. Instantly, my expression turned dark. I stretched out my legs and leaned back onto my bed, making it clear that I didn't want to talk to him. "Has Hendrix ever told you how troublesome you are?" Jordan's words were weird. It was apparent he did not know anything about the passion between a man and a woman.

Troublesome? He knew nothing about a sweet burden.

I was putting myself through so much psychological torture to flirt with this guy. Not only he did not appreciate the effort I put into my act, he still even dared to criticize me and my skills?

I turned my cheek and ignored him completely. I wanted him to understand what it felt like to get the cold shoulder.
