Lina stood up from her chair, watching his arrogant expression drop.

Lina shook her head, taking steps back. "Hell to fuck no."
Kaden narrowed his eyes. "Don't be petty."
"You rejected me the same day you proposed to me," Lina hissed, slamming her hands upon his desk.

"You were vulnerable and high in your emotions. It'd be a decision you'd regret," Kaden slowly said, like speaking to a child.
"I didn't want to take advantage of you," Kaden stated.
"Yet, you tried to take advantage of my virginity," Lina retorted.
