Chapter 325
“I have something to tell you.”
“What is it?”
“I just found out that my family’s been visiting you this morning. I’m sorry if it’s caused you any problems.”
Isla was stunned for a moment. She lowered her gaze and said, “Mr. Cooper, there’s no need to apologize. Actually, I came here today to discuss something with you.”
Seeing David’s confused expression, Isla explained, “Since you’ve never clearly expressed your feelings before, I’ve never had a chance to talk about it. Mr. Cooper, you’re not my type, and I’m not interested in being more than friends. Let’s keep some space between us, okay?”
Isla thought that David would get angry and leave, but to her surprise, he only looked at her with a faint smile.
“You don’t have feelings for me?”
Isla detected a hint of playfulness in his gaze, and she subconsciously clenched her fists.
She nodded and said, “Yes, Mr. Cooper.”
David walked toward her as soon as she answered.
When he stood before her, she snapped out of her thoughts and said, “Mr. Cooper, you-”
Before she could finish her sentence, David grabbed her chin and k*ssed her.
Isla froze briefly before she struggled and pushed him away.
“Ugh… Let me go….
She had k*ssed male actors in films before and had always remained calm.
However, his lips felt hotter than any other actor’s. They were so hot that they could burn her. Instead of letting her go, David pulled her closer by the waist.
Isla felt like she was going crazy. Her face turned red, and her heart raced.
When she realized that she was actually enjoying the k*ss, she snapped out of it and bit him hard.
David let her go due to the pain, but he was surprisingly not mad. He still looked at her with a smile.
“Isla, are you sure you don’t have feelings for me?”
His eyes were full of teasing and mischief. Due to the intense k*ss, his lips now carried a hint of her lipstick. It gave him a touch of seductive charm.
Isla took a deep breath and pushed him away with a smile. “Mr. Cooper, I’m a grown woman with S*xual needs. Wouldn’t it be normal for me to feel something if you k*ss me?”
David cocked an eyebrow in amusement. “Miss Connolly, lying isn’t a good habit.” “So, anything you don’t like to hear is considered a lie?”

David looked at her and said, “I enjoy hearing whatever you say. It seems that I’ve fallen in love with you. What should I do?”
Isla’s expression changed, and her voice turned cold.
“Cut the cliches, Mr. Cooper. Don’t throw the word ‘love‘ around so lightly.”
David frowned. “You don’t believe me?”
“You’ve said this to each of your ex–girlfriends, haven’t you? Mr. Cooper, I appreciate your help in the past, but I merely feel gratitude. I’ll never have any other feelings for you.”
Isla knew that if she allowed things to go further, she would end up hurt. Hence, she would not begin a relationship with him.
“Isla, are you questioning my feelings for you?”
Before he could say more, Isla pulled out her phone and played a recording.
David’s face turned pale. He tried to explain but seemed unsure of where to start.
Isla wore a mocking smile. She stood up and slipped a room key card into his suit pocket. “I’ll be waiting for you in my room tonight, Mr. Cooper.”
