First Love 30

Chapter 30

Angela nodded and was about to say something in response to Finn's kind offer of help when someone suddenly

bumped into her forcefully from behind. It nearly sent her tumbling to the floor on all fours, Luckily, Finn was

quick enough to catch and steady her.

But before Angela could fully regain her balance, the brute who had bumped into her grabbed her wrist and

murmured, “May | have this dance, miss?"

It was Dexter.

Even with his dark costand makeup, his commanding presence and those deep-set, piercing eyes gave his

identity away immediately.

Why couldn't he leave her alone?

Finn hadn't recognized Dexter's voice. Holding onto Angela's hand, he looked Dexter in the eye and said, "She's

my partner for this evening, sir."

Inwardly, Angela cursed like a sailor vehemently. Still, she chose not to acknowledge Dexter. She pretended as if

she didn't recognize him either.

“Oh, really?” Dexter fixed his gaze on her, his eyes flashing dangerously. "So, do you like him?”

Angela wanted to answer but hesitated. There were too many people around, and she dreaded Dexter causing a

scene. Even if he didn't mind embarrassing himself, she did.

Since Angela didn't speak, Dexter chuckled coldly and gave Finn a smug glance. "It seems like she doesn't think

much of you."

Finn frowned and seemed to realize something. Nevertheless, he didn't feel like backing down.

After a slight pause, he turned to Angela and cupped her cheeks gently. Then, he placed at kiss on her forehead.

Angela's mind went blank.

Around them, people started whispering.

"Wow! They formed a match without even seeing each other's faces. That must be true love, right?"

"They can see into each other's souls with just a glance. How rare!"

"But why does this feel like a love triangle? Are the two men fighting over one woman?"

The crowd of swans, both white and black, were openly gossiping, their voices far from discreet. Angela wished

the earth would just swallow her up.

"Will that do?” Finn asked, pulling her hand from Dexter's grip and leading her am

But in the next second, Dexter put a firm hand on Angela's shoulder and pulled her into his arm. Then, he

crushed his lips onto hers in a fierce kiss.

Angela's head spun at the unexpected kiss. She instinctively put up a fight and resisted him, struggling to push

him away. More than anything, she wished she could knee him right where it hurt.

The crowd gasped in shock. This mixer was turning out to be quite the spectacle.

Unable to bear it any longer, Angela bit down on Dexter's lip. He released her with a pained grunt. Her reflexes

took over, and she landed a slap on his cheek squarely.

The sound of the crisp slap echoed across the hall as Dexter's mask fell off, revealing his strikingly handsome

but menacingly furious face.

Everyone stared in stunned silence. They couldn't believe that the man who had just forcibly kissed a woman

after shamelessly interrupting the couple's dance only to be met with a resounding slap was none other than

Dexter.

It was incredible.

Angela could already hear the murmurs spreading through the crowd. She saw the storm brewing in Dexter's

eyes, and she could tell that he was about to blow his top.

"Run!” In a panic, Angela grabbed Finn's arm and fled the scene.

Dexter remained standing where he was wished he could strangle her.

but all his thoughts had flown to Angela. How he

“Are you okay, Dexter?” Elena, who was standing nearby, asked hesitantly. She then urged, “Let's go."

Elena felt uneasy as she looked at the faint redness in his face. Deep inside, she was becoming increasingly

anxious.

Somewhere along the line, Angela had becbrazen. She fearlessly toed Dexter's boundaries. And somehow,

Dexter kept tolerating it. To Elena, this wasn't a good sign at all.
