CHAPTER 316

The sight of the hickeys on her neck and clavicles added fuel to the t

"What do you see in him? Why would you choose him over me?

Kira was scared by the manic gleam in Gideon's eyes.

It reminded her of Kayleigh in the hotel hallway.

tire already raging our of control in his heart.

The actress had the same gleam, the same deranged look, and the result was Kira's kidnapping.

Kira smelled blood

Gideon's hand was bleeding again.

The paleness of his face contrasted against the redness in his eyes.

Kira's heart pounded.

"Gideon Garner, let me go!" She tried to make her voice sound as firm as possible. Do you hear me? Let me go!

Gideon did the opposite.

He clung to her tighter

"You slept with him, didn't you? He left those marks on you last night. You were coming to see me today, but you still slept with him last night. Kira Hewitt, how can you be so cruel to me?" Kira followed his line of sight and saw the hickeys on her shoulders

She suddenly understood what happened at noon.

Austyn's solicitude, his comment about the weather, his Insistence on driving her to the mall, his generous payment for her make-over.

She thought he was showing concem for her

But he was doing this to get a rise out of Gideon.

That was why he picked out the little black dress with no sleeves and a low-cut neckline.

Kira blinked and found Gideon's face moving closer.

Close enough for her to feel his breath on her cheeks

Gideon Game!!

Austyn pulled Kira buck

She slammed into his hard chest.

'Let go of ber!' Austyn's voice was glacial

Gideon still had his hold on Kira's amn.

He stood his ground. "Austyn, you know how important ira is to me. You owed me a favour. I want to collect it now.

What do you want? Austyn sneered "Kim?1

'Yes. I want you to get a divorce. Set her free!

Impossible!"

"Name your price. What will it take for you to let her go?

"I won't let her go. Never! Don't even think about it'

"What shout the favour you owed modi

Tran phre you anything, but Kira's off hits,'

"Enough! Kira shouted.

She shook off Gideon's hand and struggled out of Austyn's arms. "What do you take me for? A plece of furniture for you two to trade and haggle tiver? Don't I get a say in what I can or can't do?" She spin on her heel and stomped off.

Her heels were new and too ligh

She almost tripped and fell,

Grabbing a table for support, she righted hersell and carried on marching

She didn't stop wallung till she'd left the cafeteria and the hospital building.

The sun was beaming down..

It was so bright outside that she had to shut her eyes for a moment.

She must be getting blisters from the new shoes.

Herauldes and soles hurt.

She kicked off the shoes and almost jumped when her bare feet touched the hot pavement.

On second thought, she retrieved the shors.

They were expensive.

She held them in her hands and tiptoed.

Urgent footsteps came from behind her.

She didn't need to turn around to know who it was.

Austyn said, 'Stop.'

Kira rolled her eyes and ignored him.

Two seconds later, Austyn caught up with her. "What's the matter with you? 1 said stop.

Kira shook off his hand and continued walking

'Kira Hewitt!' He seemed to have run out of patience. 'What are you doing? Get back inside!"

""No!"

"If you're going to throw a tantrum, at least wear your damn shoes! Do you know how hot it is out there?"

Kira stopped and spun around. I'm not throwing a tantrum!?

"Then what are you doing?'

I'm getting mad at you!!

The furrow between Austyn's brows deepened. 'What did I do?

Kira threw up her hands.

He didn't even know why she was angry!

Or rather, he didn't think he did anything wrong

Kira hurled her shoe at him.

She pointed to her dress. 'Did you take me to buy all these on purpose?!

Austyn nodded

He never planned to lie about this to her anyway.

Kira's temper flared.

'I lied. I don't like the dress at all. And the shoes suck. You suck! Here's your stupid shoe back!!

She threw the other shoe at him.

The heel struck Austyn's suit jacket.

He took the blow and didn't move.

He just stood there, scowling

He crossed his anns. I bought you that dress as well. If you hate it so much, why don't you give it back to me?

Kira glowered at him, fer clerks theshed "For

Her hands moved towards the zipper on the back of the dress.

Austyn grabbed her wrist. That's enough!"

Kira shook off his hand.

"We're right outside the hospital!" Austyn said through gritted teeth. "There are people here! Are you going to strip in front of them?"

"I have a great body! I don't mind putting it on display!"

*Are you crazy?

Kira struggled. "You're the one who asked me to take it off! I'm just doing what you wanted, like always!"

Austyn breathed heavily through his nose. "Fine! Take it off! If you don't mind getting naked in public, I guess you also won't mind having sex in public. Spin to Claim Your Surprise Reward!
