先性后爱 电影

The flowers might have obscured her view of his face, but she would recognize him even from a mile, smelling the stench of his perfume. Why did she even fall for this guy? She thought as disgust overwhelmed what she felt for this awful man.

“Wait!” He shouted when she attempted to close the door without bothering to greet him, not wanting to see him.

Besides, she was also afraid to be alone with him, especially after what had happened the last time he came to visit her. She was not subjecting herself to the same situation.

However, the door stopped closing as he braced his body against the wooden panel. Then, he pushed the door, forcing his way inside the room, not bothering for an invitation.

“Get out!” She shouted, but the man only smirked at her, ignoring her. He proceeded inside the room but not before closing the door behind him.

She had no choice but to keep backing up, avoiding getting close to him. She had to find a way to make him leave since forcing him was out of the question.

.....

However, how to do that was the question since she could already feel her pulse racing, her hands trembling, and her heart beating speedily inside her chest. Now, she truly wished she had taken the taekwondo lessons her brother insisted.

“Why? Don’t you miss me? I brought your favorite chocolate.” He let go of the flowers and balloons on his hand and let them drop on a nearby table while waving the chocolates at her.

“I don’t need those. So, please get out. You should not even be here.” She shouted again, hoping her voice would carry some weight and make him leave.

“Now, you are hurting my feelings. Why are you even doing this to us?” He threw himself on the bed, propping himself on the pillows as he made himself comfortable.

“Us?” She yelled incredulously, not caring if she caused a disturbance on this floor. However, she doubted anyone would hear her. “There is no us.” She looked at him, finding his words hilarious.

“And you believe that I will just let you go like that. I made you, Serena. Without me, you are nothing.” He said as he placed his hands behind his head. “Don’t bother to run, my darling. Anywhere you go, I will find you.”

Coming from him, it was a threat that she should never ignore because he came from an influential family. She did not wonder how he found her. Somebody from the hotel must have reported that she was there.

He was right.

Wherever she hid, he would find her. But it did not mean she should give up and let him win. No! She had had enough of these men using her and thinking they could get away with it.

“I don’t owe anything to you. I work hard to get to where I am.” She pointed to herself, making an effort not to let him think that he had the upper hand. “And I am not afraid of you. If you don’t leave immediately, I will call the police and have you arrested.”

She moved to the other side of the room, grabbed her phone, and was about to dial the emergency number, but he was fast. He snatched the phone from her hand and laughed.

“Are you going to call your new loser boyfriend?” He did not even bother to look at the screen but just threw her phone on the nearby wall, bashing it to pieces.

“I heard he is taking your case. That is so sweet.” He mockingly muttered as he clutched a handful of her hair as she tried to run away from him, preventing her from reaching the door.

“Let go of me, Elliot. You are hurting me.” She begged him as she tried to pry her hair away from his fingers, but he held her tightly, taking her captive.

“Did you consider that you are hurting me by leaving me? So, why should I take pity on you.” Elliot said, dragging her to the center of the room and pushing her to the bed.

She scrambled on the linen sheets, hoping to get away, but before she could crawl out of bed, she felt his body cover her, pinning her to the bed. At that moment, she knew she had to find a way to get away before it was too late. She could not give up without a fight.

“Please, let me go.” She still tried to beg even though she knew it was futile. But she had to do something to distract him, even if she had to feed his ego.

“Not until you accept that you are forever mine. Let go of this nonsense and retract your suit against me.” He said as he lay on top of her, one of his hands wrapped around her neck, forcing her to look back at him.

“I think she already answered you. If you did not understand her with your pea brain, I am willing to repeat it for you.” A voice said behind them. “Let go of her.” The familiar voice said in his commanding tone.

“Don’t you know how to knock? You are trespassing and interrupting a private moment.” Elliot shouted angrily, not moving from her position. “There is the door. Leave! And Adam, lock it on your way out.” He ordered as if he was talking to a hired help.

“It is you who should let her go and leave this instant.” This time, Adam did not wait for him to answer as he pulled him by his collar and dragged him away from her.

But before Adam could react, the other man threw his fist into his face, landing a solid blow into his jaw and making him wobble on his feet. But he quickly recovered as he prepared for his next punch, docking before it hit him.

He threw his arm in his opponent’s direction, landing one on his cheeks. When Elliot fell on the floor, he started kicking him, wanting him to learn his lesson and stop bothering Serena again.

“That is enough,” Serena shouted, finally finding her voice from the shock of another assault.

Honestly, she slightly took pleasure in watching her former boyfriend hurt as he did to her. She also wanted revenge and made him suffer. But it did not mean she wanted Adam to kill him.

“Stop.” She repeated as he pulled Adam away from the injured man. Then, she noticed something else.

A man seemed to stand by the door with a phone in his hand. When he saw her, he turned away and ran. She knew it was either a paparazzi or a bystander who noticed the commotion and decided to take pictures. But that was the least of her problem.

“I guess you win.” Elliot pulled himself into a sitting position, holding on to his injured chest from the kick he got from Adam. He gradually stood up and staggered his way to the door.

“I am going to miss you, Serena.” He shook his head as if he was sorry. Then, he blew her a kiss before walking out of the door.

Serena could only watch him leave, hoping that was the last time she would see him. But that was wishful thinking since they still had a case to finish. She still had an upcoming battle to win.
