Chapter 3: Woman, What's Your Motive for Approaching Me?
When Ezran Ella turned around, Su William's sharp gaze locked onto her. With a
low, husky voice, he gestured at her, "Come here."
Everyone in the room knew Su William's reputation for indulgence, but not every
woman could catch his eye. Only the most stunning beauties could hold his interest,
even momentarily.
Now, with the room buzzing in disbelief, it was clear: Su William had his sights set on
this woman.
Ezran Ella approached with a soft smile, her voice as sweet as honey. She didn't
dare act rashly; this man was an enigma, and one misstep could cost her everything.
Before she could steady herself, a strong arm snaked around her waist, pulling heragainst his firm chest.
The sudden closeness made her heart race, but Ezran Ella masked her unease. This
was progress-it seemed she had piqued his interest. Gaining confidence, she slid her
hand under his tailored suit jacket, brushing against his chest through the thin fabric
of his white shirt.
She was playing with fire, and she knew it.
The crowd gasped audibly. This was the Su Group's anniversary celebration, a
prestigious event where decorum was paramount. Even if Su William was interested
in her, few expected him to tolerate such brazenness.
But Su William didn't push her away. Instead, he scooped her up in his arms and
walked out of the hall, leaving the audience dumbfounded.
Even Bai Ezra, Su William's ever-composed assistant, couldn't hide his shock at his
boss's behavior.
Ezran Ella looped her arms around Su William's neck, her voice soft as she
whispered, "Third Young Master, where are you taking me? The party isn't over yet."
He didn't respond, nor did he spare her a glance. Walking straight to a royal-blue
Rolls Royce, his cold voice broke the silence. "Open the door."
"Oh," Ezran Ella obediently complied.Her years abroad had taught her one crucial lesson: when dealing with powerful men,
compliance was survival.
Contrary to her expectations, Su William was unexpectedly gentle, placing her in the
car with care. Once they were inside, he pressed a button to raise the privacy windows,
blocking all outside views.
As she processed the implications, a sudden weight pressed her back against the seat.
Startled, Ezran Ella looked up to see his striking face inches from hers, his
predatory smile igniting a flutter of panic in her chest.
Her arms instinctively wrapped around his neck as she thought, Isn't this exactly what
men want? Let him indulge-then I'll have him wrapped around my finger.
Just as her lips were about to brush his, Su William stopped her by pressing a finger
against her mouth. His smirk deepened as he drawled, "Woman, what's your motive
for approaching me?"
Ezran Ella froze. She hadn't expected him to see through her so quickly.
"Speak up. I don't hit women, but if you don't answer, don't blame me for what
happens next," he warned, his tone laced with danger.
Meeting his piercing gaze, she smiled sweetly. "Third Young Master, what if I told
you I approached you to seduce you? Would you believe me?"
"Seduce me?" His finger lingered on her lips, his eyes darkening with intrigue. "Andwhy would you want to do that?"
Pouting slightly, Ezran Ella replied, "Because life hasn't been kind to me. Who
wouldn't try to survive by any means necessary? But it seems the Third Young
Master isn't interested in a deal." She trailed off, a teasing glint in her eyes.
Before she could finish, Su William's expression turned icy, silencing her.
"Interesting. If it's a transaction you want, I'll oblige," he said, a devilish grin
spreading across his face. "But if you think you can handle me, don't regret it when I
prove you wrong."
With that, he started the car and drove away, his smile unwavering as he silently
mused about the game they were about to play.
Later: The Royal Palace Hotel
In a lavish, fragrant bathroom, Ezran Ella finally shed her last layer of defense. Her
flawless figure seemed sculpted by the gods-delicate yet perfectly proportioned.
Even the maids around her couldn't help but gasp in awe. She was a masterpiece of
beauty, a weapon she intended to wield against this man of power.
Sliding into the revealing lingerie provided by the maids, Ezran Ella lay on the silk
covered bed, waiting. Her sultry pose was calculated, every move designed to seduce.
Yet, as she closed her eyes, the haunting voice of her grandmother echoed in her mind:"Ezran Ella, you betrayed us! How can you call yourself my granddaughter after
what you've done? You're no child of mine!"
Tears slipped down her cheeks as she whispered to the void, "I'll make it right,
Grandma. I'll avenge you and take back what belongs to the Ye family."
Her nightmare ended abruptly as she woke to find Su William sitting by the bed, his
brows furrowed.
"You're awake," he said matter-of-factly.
Ezran Ella forced a sweet smile. "Third Young Master, you're here."
"You were having a nightmare," he remarked, his tone flat.
She nodded honestly, though her heart pounded as she stood, the sheer fabric of her
lingerie leaving little to the imagination. Her alluring figure caught his attention, his
dark eyes narrowing as they followed her every move.
Kneeling on the bed, Ezran Ella wrapped her arms around his neck, her voice low
and teasing as she whispered in his ear, "Do I smell good, Third Young Master?"
Her words were like a match to dry timber, fanning the flames of his desire.
"Seductive little minx," he growled, his voice thick with lust. "Didn't you claim I
wasn't capable? Tonight, I'll prove you wrong. Don't bother begging for mercy."With that, he pressed her down, his arms caging her in. Their lips met in a fiery kiss,
igniting a storm of passion as they spiraled into oblivion together
