Chapter 724
Horace knocked on the door. “Brittany, it’s me. Open up, please. I feed to talk to you.”
Brittany sat on the bed, pretending not to hear him.
“I know you’re in there. Open the door now! I’m counting to three if you don’t open it, I’m kicking it down!”
The maid outside hurriedly said, “You can’t just kick the door, Mr. Larson. Let’s talk this out calmly!”
Horace was already counting. “One…two…”
Brittany stood up and opened the door.
Outside, she saw Horace’s tall, imposing figure. He looked rushed wearing a black silk pajama top under a long black coat. On his feet were dark navy slippers, and he looked worn out from the day.
Brittany stared at him. “What are you doing here? You’re not welcome. Go back to Ida.”
Horace frowned. “Please, listen to me. Nothing happened between us-”
“How many times have you said that? If nothing happened, then what did I just see? I caught you two in bed together! Don’t deny it now. If you cheated, own up to it. Don’t make me lose respect for you!”
She started to shut the door.
But Horace put his hand firmly against the door, forcing it to stay open.
“Let go!”
Brittany tried to close the door, but she didn’t have the strength to overpower him. Horace stood his ground, stubborn and unyielding.
“What are you trying to do?”
Horace looked at her and sneered. “You’re right. I should be honest. If I did it, I wouldn’t deny it. But nothing happened, I swear
Brittany opened her mouth to argue..
But Horace didn’t give her a chance to speak. “Are you really that clueless? I chased after you. If something had happened with Ida, do you think I’d be here so quickly?”
Suddenly, Brittany sized him up from head to toe. “Are you getting rusty?”
Horace narrowed his eyes. “What do you mean?”
“You and Ida already finished? Hah, I guess you’re getting old.”
Horace was speechless. He shoved the door open, strode inside, and then suddenly scooped Brittany up in his arms.
Brittany’s whole body stiffened in midair as she struggled. “What are you doing? Let me go!”
Horace carried her to the bed in a few quick steps and threw her down onto it.
Brittany scrambled to get away, but Horace saw through her plan immediately. He grabbed her ankle and yanked her back.
Kneeling on one knee beside her, he looked down at her with a commanding gaze. “Don’t you know if I still have it in me?”
Brittany’s eyes widened at the dangerous spark in his eyes. “I don’t know…”
“Then I’m going to make sure you do.”
Horace leaned down and kissed her.

Brittany’s pupils shrank as she kicked and flailed, desperate to push him off.
Let me go! You’re filthy! You had your fun with Ida, and now you’re on top of me. I don’t want to catch anything! Let go right now!”
Horace pinned both of her struggling hands to the bed. “I’ll say it again: Nothing happened with Ida. You’re the only one I want to be with.”
