Chapter 242
"What do you think of this dress?" Madeline asked as she twirled in front of a dressing mirror. She was wearing a purple silk evening gown. It was a long gown with a slit for her thigh.
It also had an open back, accentuating her beautiful curves even more.
"Are you asking for my honest opinion or an opinion that will make you happy?" Lance asked as he approached Madeline.
He was wearing a blood-red suit that made him even more eye-catching.
"Honest one," Madeline replied curtly while striking a pose in the mirror.
Lance traced his finger along her bare back, a hint of possessiveness flickering in his eyes. "You look extremely gorgeous in this dress, but I hate that it’s an open back. I should be the only one who can see this."
Madeline chuckled. "It’s a common style for evening gowns. Besides, you’ve seen me fully nude every day. Isn’t that enough?"
"Not enough," Lance murmured, his gaze intense. "I think you’re really my type, Maddy. Do you want to be my girlfriend?"
"Oh, Mr. Grant. I don’t want to be one of your many girlfriends," Madeline went along with his playfulness. "If you want me, you must break up with them all."
"I will," Lance knew it was just a little play-pretend, but it turned him on.
He kissed Madeline on the nape, but before he could do more, Madeline struggled to break free from him.
"Not now, Lance. We must leave now, or we’ll be late for the award ceremony," Madeline reminded him.
