Task NO 1 How To Pursue Miss CEO Chapter 131

Chapter 131 Are You Serious?

“You’re the one who tried to seduce me while in my arms!” By flipping himself over, Pierre trapped Selena underneath him in the blink of an eye, pressing his full weight onto her. “I should finish you off right here, right now!”

It wasn’t until he reached out to unbutton her clothes that she realized that she was in imminent danger. While they might be horsing around before that, he was being serious now. “Hold on, Pierre! Are you being serious?”

“Of course! Why would I not want to be serious?” While he spoke, he pulled out all of her buttons in one go impatiently, which rained on the floor.

With her eyes still closed, she yelled, “You pervert! Did you plan everything that happened during the wedding?” This content © Nôv/elDr(a)m/a.Org.

His movements came to an abrupt stop. “How did you know?”

“I guessed it.” Selena raised her chin.

Then, he sat up and lit a cigarette. “Sure. Tell me your reasoning.”

Sitting up in a hurry, she held her shirt together using her hands as all of the buttons had been pulled off. “Let’s begin from the night of the wedding. Why would we encounter the group of people after we left in that secret passage? Although the island wasn’t that big, neither was it small. However, the attackers caught us despite the fact that there were so many people fleeing the scene.”

Arching his brow, Pierre said nothing, so Selena went on with her explanation.

“Besides, you’re a smart person, so you wouldn’t have allowed yourself to be captured so easily. Other than that, it was apparent that the attackers were planning to kill you since they went to such great lengths to trash the wedding night. It would make sense that they were well-prepared to go down with you, but you easily subdued them after they caught us. You might be a great fighter, but they should logically have put in the effort to study you and come up with countermeasures since they were your enemies. They wouldn’t have allowed you to retaliate that easily. By the way, did you also prepare the boats? After we escaped, they only shot at us without even giving chase, which was even weirder. Did they forget about their objective?”

Selena’s conjecture made sense. Surely, she did have her doubts, but no matter how she looked at it, she didn’t think he had reason to plan for such an elaborate scheme to be carried out during his own wedding. Therefore, she didn’t think much of it until everything clicked together when she saw the few men.

“You got all of it right.”

“But I don’t understand your reasons for doing all this. That was your wedding!” That was the only part which she couldn’t quite grasp. Since Pierre and Meredith were bound to get wedded sooner or later, he had no need to come up with a scheme to ruin his own wedding.

Puffing out a ring of smoke, he asked, “Can’t you figure it out, smarty-pants?”

Selena stared into his eyes before something dawned on her. Was it because he didn’t want to get married? His aim was to cancel the wedding! The Fowlers would be disgraced if he canceled the wedding beforehand, but if the wedding was forcefully canceled because of unforeseen circumstances, he wouldn’t bring shame to the family. “Was it because… you… don’t want to marry Meredith?” she asked tentatively.

“You’re smart, little fella! Just like my woman!” Pierre observed her proudly.

“But…” However, the answer only further confused her. Weren’t they supposed to get married sooner or later? Why must he go to such great lengths to cancel the wedding? Did Meredith somehow do something wrong?

While puffing on his cigarette, he produced quite a lot of smoke, which made her cough. Upon glancing at her, he snubbed the cigarette in the ashtray. “I only came to realize that my father tricked me when you presented the invitation card. He decided to hold the wedding before telling me the truth, so that I would force myself into getting married in order to save their dignity.”
