"Enough!" Nicole suddenly stood up, "I invited you here just to discuss how to curb your behavior in as good an atmosphere as possible, but you've gone too far now, Adrian! Please leave immediately!"
She pointed toward the door, her voice trembling with emotion, her demeanor agitated. Unfortunately for her, Adrian had long seen through her little ruse. After repeatedly delaying their inevitable meeting, he had resolved to deal with her today.
"Don't be like this, Nicole," Adrian also stood up, straightening his clothes and looking at her leisurely.
"I'm serious, if…" Nicole said, starting to walk toward the door, but Adrian grabbed her wrist in an instant, pulling her into his arms.
"I said don't be like this," Adrian lifted her chin, speaking in a frivolous tone.
Nicole's breathing quickened, a strange light flashed in her eyes. She tried forcefully to push him away, but after only a couple of attempts, Adrian's words made her stop and tense up.
