Mr. Pretentious: Miss Valerius, He is Begging for a Title-Chapter 123: His Absolute Desire to Control Her

Chapter 123

Chapter 123: Chapter 123: His Absolute Desire to Control Her
Eleanor Valerius was facing away from Sebastian Ford, intently searching through his photo album.
But there were very few photos in his phone album, not even any intimate pictures of the two of them.
"Why can’t I find them..."
It was only at this moment that Sebastian Ford realized Eleanor Valerius might be conspiring with his second brother to betray him.
It wasn’t stealing important company data, but trying to steal photos?
"If you’re looking for something, why not ask me?"
A dangerous, sinister voice suddenly echoed from behind.
Suddenly, Eleanor’s heart raced wildly, and as she turned around with the phone, she collided with Sebastian’s angry gaze.
She didn’t see the astonishment in Sebastian’s eyes and blinked, realizing and asking: "Master Ford pretended to be asleep to catch me?"
Initially terrified by being caught, she found that Sebastian was already prepared, and she felt there was still room for negotiation.
"Do you want to take our bed photos?"
Sebastian squinted his eyes, not answering but questioning: "I could cooperate and take more, or I could directly share them online. Do you need to steal them?"
Stealing bed photos wasn’t a big mistake; what angered him was her deception and betrayal.
"When did you find out? Did you check the hotel surveillance?"
Eleanor realized, muttering to herself in enlightenment: "No wonder you’ve seemed a bit fierce lately, you’ve been angry all along."
"Eleanor Valerius, I’m giving you a chance to explain!"
Sebastian’s anger was further ignited by her attitude.
He even thought if Eleanor admitted her mistake and had a good attitude, maybe he would consider forgiving her.
"Uncle wants to investigate who your woman is. I said I could help him, but I want a reward of 1 million."
Eleanor calmly said.
"For money?"
Sebastian, provoked by her, sneered coldly, suddenly stood up, and pinched her cheeks with a big hand, pressing close and questioning coldly: "Just 1 million, would you betray and sell me? Eleanor Valerius, are you in such need of money or am I so worthless in your eyes?"
Just 1 million...
If she really wanted Uncle’s 1 million reward, she could escape from Aethelgard with Chloe.
Her way out, in Sebastian’s eyes, was as insignificant as an ant.
Despite the pain from his grip, Eleanor didn’t struggle; instead, she responded with a smile: "Uncle wants to investigate you, and letting me investigate is better than having others do it. I can’t publically expose my relationship with Master Ford. I definitely won’t really betray you.
Doing this can eliminate Uncle’s suspicions and also gain 1 million; I simply can’t think of any reason to refuse."
After being uncovered, she did not want to deceive Sebastian anymore.
Anyway, her ultimate goal was not to sink deeper into this relationship with Sebastian.
Even though she knew confessing would anger him, she wanted to be honest.
"Eleanor Valerius, your explanation truly disappoints me!"
Coldness burst from Sebastian’s eyes, his grip on her face turning it red, and he found her smile extremely glaring!
"Wanting money, wanting to dispel Byron Ford’s suspicion, there were better ways to solve it, yet you chose to deceive and betray me! Eleanor Valerius, can’t you earn money from me? How much do you want, can’t I afford it?"
This was the first time Sebastian used money to shame her.
Eleanor was pressed against the desk by him; she desperately restrained the growing sting in her heart, still smiling provocatively: "It’s different, helping uncle is earning money by ability."
"Getting on my bed is also an ability!"
Sebastian’s tall body slowly pressed her down.
His suit was tightly pressed against her pajamas.
His threat carried a dangerous, ambiguous hint.
"Did you acknowledge your mistake?"
"I didn’t make a mistake."
Eleanor took a deep breath, her smile brightly gazing at him, responding: "I’m very obedient, following the rules of my game with you. It’s you who crossed the line, who’s greedy and out of control. I haven’t changed, has Master Ford changed?"
She’s too aware of his irritation points, perhaps it’s the hidden issue in their relationship.
Being exposed and questioned by her, Sebastian was unexpectedly furious.
"Eleanor Valerius, you’re a familiar yet untameable little fox!"
Though she seemed obediently submissive to him, he couldn’t control her heart at all.
What annoyed him was that she had spoken the truth!
Breaking boundaries, losing control, being greedy; it was all him, just him!
However, Eleanor still managed to smile indifferently.
Sebastian, unwilling, wanted to entangle her, wanted her to willingly sink together.
"The photos are in the computer; I’m giving you one chance."
Upon hearing this, Eleanor was shocked.
She wouldn’t believe Sebastian would be so kind.
Afterwards, Sebastian opened the computer, truly generous enough to share with her.
Eleanor glanced at the familiar bed intimate photos.
She hesitated for a moment, deciding to first take two photos as evidence to appease Byron.
Just when Eleanor relaxed and turned her back to Sebastian.
Before the photos were transferred, she suddenly heard the sound of clothes being removed behind her.
Not good!
Eleanor realized the danger and wanted to escape.
But it was too late.
Sebastian’s tall figure directly pressed her against the desk from behind.
"Sebastian Ford, don’t...ugh...bastard!"
Eleanor’s words weren’t finished.
Sebastian tightly gripped her waist, the scarlet spreading in his eyes, looking down condescendingly at her.
"You only have one chance to take the photos."
His voice was hoarse, his breath even more unsteady.
"Stop..."
Eleanor bit her lip, dared not scold him further.
Clearly, the computer photos were right in front of her, yet she couldn’t take them!
In the book-filled night, the air was thick with ambiguity.
At this moment, Sebastian even received a company phone call.
He deliberately answered it at this time, clearly as a punishment for her!
At this moment, Eleanor was ashamed to the point of being tense and stiff.
She didn’t dare make any sound, only biting on her own hand.
Sebastian’s voice was hoarse to the extreme.
"Yes, the contract...will be handled tomorrow, we’ll talk in the meeting."
Though his words were about serious business, he was simultaneously doing improper things.
Eleanor was beyond embarrassed.
Though she knew the person on the phone couldn’t hear, she could.
Eleanor was almost unable to stand; before falling, she was caught and held in Sebastian’s arms.
"I gave you a chance, you missed it."
Sebastian’s warm breath fell by her ear, closing the computer right in front of her.
"Ugh, bastard..."
Even wanting to curse him, Eleanor had no strength left.
Afterwards, Sebastian carried her from the study back to the bedroom.
Eleanor instinctively wanted to escape, but he caught her.
