Chapter 1427: When Two Dominant Men Meet
Nia Mitchell didn’t expect that just by holding the CEO’s hand to look at a few clothes, she would end up being pinned down and thoroughly ravished.When she protested with a flushed face afterward, Maxwell Peary acted like a cat that had stolen some fish, letting her say whatever she wanted.
“I hate you!”
Nia Mitchell put on her clothes, standing there with an empty stomach.
“Yeah, I admit it.”
“You’re ruled by lust!”
“Yeah, that’s right, it’s me.”
“Whose study are you going to tonight?”
“Why? Do you want to change places?”
Maxwell Peary raised his eyebrows at Nia Mitchell, sizing her up as he spoke.
Seeing his expression, Nia Mitchell’s face instantly reddened.
“I won’t talk to you anymore, I’m going to eat.”
“Sweetheart, you didn’t get enough earlier?”
“Ahhhhhhh!!!!”
Nia Mitchell stomped her foot, red-faced and embarrassed as she left the second floor, the scene of trouble.
She decided that from now on, when she comes home after work, she would sit on the living room sofa and never go upstairs.
After all, there were lots of people downstairs, coming and going, Maxwell Peary wouldn’t dare to try anything.
……
A few days later, Leon Blackwood’s twenty-fifth birthday party.
Nia Mitchell, wearing a pale yellow gown and holding the CEO’s arm, arrived here. Attending such a grand occasion for the first time, Nia Mitchell felt a bit nervous.
Wearing heels she seldom used, Maxwell Peary, considerate of her, walked very slowly.
“Later we’ll find a place to sit and rest.”
Maxwell Peary leaned close to her, lowering his head slightly, speaking carefully.
“Alright.”
Nia Mitchell nodded. The heels felt comfortable initially, but after a few steps, her feet began to ache.
She much preferred sneakers.
Leon Blackwood, holding a glass of wine, was already paying attention to the commotion at the entrance. Upon seeing Nia Mitchell and Maxwell Peary, he immediately approached.
“You ended up coming after all.”
Leon Blackwood didn’t greet Maxwell Peary but focused on Nia Mitchell.
“My husband feels it’s necessary to show respect to you, so of course I came by his side.”
Nia Mitchell clung tightly to the CEO’s arm, pouting unhappily at him.
“Interesting.”
Leon Blackwood’s sinister eyes were hidden, standing there without showing any emotion.
Maxwell Peary looked at Leon Blackwood expressionlessly, and in an instant, their eyes met, the air crackling with tension.
The smell of gunpowder spread throughout the party.
The party was crowded with notable figures, some among them recognized Maxwell Peary.
Instantly, people began whispering, filled with curiosity.
Wasn’t it rumored that Young Master Peary never attended any parties?
Why is he interested in attending the Blackwood Family’s owner’s twenty-fifth birthday party today?
Moreover, when two strong personalities meet, they should be having a dramatic showdown. It surely shouldn’t be like this.
“Young Master Peary is willing to come celebrate my birthday, it’s an honor.”
After Leon Blackwood finished speaking, he extended his hand.
Maxwell Peary, wearing a fake smile, stood there and extended his hand to shake.
“I’m also honored to receive your invitation.”
Having said that, yet their hands remained clasped together.
Nia Mitchell, standing beside the CEO, naturally saw that both of their hands were tense with veins bulging.
But neither’s expression changed.
“Let’s go inside.”
Nia Mitchell suddenly opened her mouth, breaking the silent contest between the two men.
“Alright.”
Maxwell Peary released his grip and, holding Nia Mitchell’s arm, proceeded inside.
