The Devilish Assassin Meets The Angelic Detective - Volume 2: Their Paths Cross Again Chapter 301 301: No Other Woman

Seeing Erick was dazed, Elle grabbed that opportunity to launch a counterattack. Now, it was her turn to tease him.

Elle put her arms on his strong hard chest. Erick groaned due to the sudden surge of heat inside him. She began to caress his chest using her palms, drawing circles on his shirts. Her touch was adding fuel to the fire of his desire.

“I already told you before, Chief Lee. You have an irresistible charm. Following me here is like you are throwing yourself to me. So who am I to refuse that?” Elle whispered to him seductively.

Erick took a deep breath, trying to maintain his wits. He closed his eyes, fighting the urge to touch her.

He was playing with fire. He thought he could handle it very well but Elle was affecting him too much. He was on the verge of losing his self-control.

All he wanted to hear from her was to admit that she’s Elle. Then he wouldn’t have to fight this anymore. But Elle was really stubborn. She didn’t want to give in.

Elle tiptoed and leaned closer to his ear.

“Chief Lee stop thinking about Elle. Don’t look for a person who’s not here. I am the one who’s in front of you. I am not Elle. I am Ali Aliyah Ross.” Elle’s voice was so soft and sweet, very tempting.

“Hmm can I kiss you now? Or do you want to kiss me? Choose one Either I kiss you or you kiss me.”

Erick could feel her hot breath on his ear and neck.

“I…I-I can’t kiss you if you are not Elle.” Erick mustered his remaining self-control and responded to her.

Elle’s lips curled up in a taunting smile. Elle felt that Erick’s grip on her waist tightened. He was really fighting it.

“If you can’t then I will be the one to kiss you” Elle said with her mellow voice.

“N-No! You can’t” Erick’s ragged and raspy voice echoed inside the comfort room. There was a hint of helplessness in his tone.

“But your body is telling me the opposite. I know you want it” Elle continued to tease the poor guy. Her lips already brushed his jawline.

Erick groaned inwardly as he felt her soft delicate lips touching his skin.

‘, Elle! You are driving me crazy!’

“Because my body knows that you are Elle. That’s why I want you so badly.” Erick justified himself.

Erick and Elle, they were both stubborn.

Elle heaved a deep sigh. “Erick Lee. You are insane!”

“Yes I am. It’s because of you.” This time Erick opened his eyes.

He’s back to normal. He succeeded in controlling his urge. He was now calm and composed while looking straight in Elle’s eyes.

“How long are you gonna pretend?” Erick asked her desperately.

There were conflicting emotions, flickering in her dark eyes right now. Elle looked away first.

“Can’t you just see me as Me… as who I am?” Elle asked him. Her words were full of meanings.

Erick saw a gleam of sadness when Elle said those words to him. He was rendered speechless. Then their surroundings were engulfed by deafening silence.

After what seemed like ages, Erick spoke up once again.

“I am sorry,” Erick mumbled as he lifted her chin so that their eyes could meet.

‘I told myself that I wouldn’t force her. Then why the hell I am doing this? Erick you are a Dumbfool.’ Erick thought to himself.

Elle gazed up only to see Erick’s gentle and loving smile. She felt puzzled. ‘Why is he suddenly apologizing?’

Then Erick bent down and planted a soft kiss on her forehead. This gesture of his had warmed her heart. It was simple but sweet… and filled with respect.

‘He told me that he won’t kiss me until I admitted that I’m Elle but why? A kiss on a forehead? Is this an exception?’ Elle couldn’t help but ponder.

Erick pinched her nose.

“Aw!”

He chuckled and said, “That’s your punishment for making me jealous.”

“Making you jealous??! When did I do that?” Elle complained to him with disbelief.

Erick was about to reply when suddenly they heard footsteps and faint voices coming in.

Elle and Erick exchanged glances with each other. Then they remembered that they were currently in the lady’s comfort room and Erick was not supposed to be there.

‘Sh!t. If Sandy will see Erick here then she will really be convinced that Erick is a pervert. Erick’s good reputation will also be ruined if other girls will find him inside.’

Elle acted quickly as she pulled Erick inside one of the toilet cubicles. She signaled him to remain quiet. Erick just nodded in agreement. The cubicle was not that spacious, so it’s a little bit stuffy inside for the two people.

The three ladies had entered. They were Isabelle, Kisses, and Laura. They were conversing as they fixed themselves, retouching their makeup.

“Hey, I think Jake likes that reporter girl named Aliyah.” Kisses brought the topic up.

“Why do you think so?” Laura probed.

“Did you see how very patient he was while teaching her a while ago? He is not acting like that to us. Remember, when I asked him before to teach me, he even scolded me many times.” Kisses lamented at them.

Erick and Elle could hear them clearly. Then Elle felt a sudden chill in the atmosphere inside. Erick’s expression became frosty once again.

Elle could only bite her lower lip as she saw Erick clenching his fist.

‘! He’s mad he’s jealous because of Jake.’ Elle just realized the reason why Erick felt jealous.

Then they heard Isabelle’s laughter.

“Well, she’s beautiful, isn’t she? Jake was bewitched by her. But don’t worry, she will be the reason why Jake will lose today. Diana and Chief Lee will dominate the game.” Isabelle said with certainty in her voice.

“I agree they look good together… Erick and Diana. A beautiful couple right?” Kisses shared her thoughts with them.

“Yeah, obviously, Diana is very fond of the Chief Detective. It is very seldom for her to show her interest with men. She has a very high standard.” Laura commented.

This time Elle was the one emanating a threatening aura. When Erick glanced at her, he saw her smiling. But her smile was quite frightening. There’s a gleam of anger in her dark eyes.

Erick shook his head and gave her an appealing look which was telling her that ‘Don’t listen to them. I am innocent. I have no idea. I have nothing to do with Diana.’

Elle just raised her brows and squinted her eyes at him. ‘I don’t believe you. You seemed like you were enjoying her company a while ago.’

Erick felt alarmed seeing Elle’s reaction. ‘Hey, why is she looking at me like that. I am the one who has the reason to be jealous here, not her.’

To pacify his woman, Erick just pulled Elle against his body and wrapped her into a warm hug.

Then he whispered to her, “No other woman.”

“There’s only one in my heart. And you already know who that woman is.”

Elle suppressed her urge to smile. She liked it. She loved to be buried in his chest and be engulfed by his strong arms while Erick was whispering sweet words to her.
