Chapter 6: Direct Rejection

Moreover, we were too close to each other, and our positions were too intimate. Even I was almost affected by the erotic atmosphere, and my body softened.
“Get lost!”
I cursed as I pushed against his chest.
At this moment, the surveillance camera above their heads suddenly rang. “Hello? Is anyone here? Were you guys looking for help just now?”
The man who was pressing me down suddenly took a big step back and looked at me with a complicated expression. He then adjusted his clothes and said seriously, “It’s us. The elevator broke down and got stuck on the top floor.”
“Okay, please wait a moment. We’ll be right there,” the surveillance replied.
“Hooligan!”
Only then did I manage to catch my breath. While panting, I scowled at him.
His eyes had gone completely clear, as if he wasn’t the one who’d turned the tables on me earlier. He adjusted his tie without looking at me. “I don’t want to warn you a second time. Stay away from me and don’t try to mess with me,” he said flatly.
I was speechless. I stood up straight and didn’t say another word.
Someone who dared to be so arrogant in front of me, I want to find out what background he has.
After more than 10 minutes, the rescue team finally arrived and rescued us.
The moment I stepped out, I stormed home. Before I closed the door, I heard the man blaming the late rescuers. “If this happens again, your supervisor won’t have to come to work anymore!”
“Such a domineering attitude, who does this guy think he is?”
I muttered under my breath before dialing my good friend Galen. Galen was a good friend I’d met when I was studying medicine abroad. He was also Nicole’s teacher and had the world’s best hacking skills.
“Galen, I want to find out who my neighbor is.”
“Oh, I was just about to tell you about this.” Galen seemed to have expected this, and he quickly said, “Not long ago, Alpha, the heir of the European Financial Group, wanted to ask for your help in treating his illness. He’s been asking around for your identity.”
“What’s his offer? Does that have anything to do with the question I’m asking?” It was another person trying to find out my identity, and I was getting impatient.
“Of course it does. Alpha is your new neighbor,” Galen said.
That arrogant, rude, and terrifyingly strong man was Alpha? I felt even angrier.
“Reject him. Tell him the ghost doctor would never help Alpha with anything,” I said coldly.
“Okay, I understand.” Galen hung up.
The next day, I planned to go to the hospital where I had given birth all those years ago to gather information. It was there that my son was taken away by my vicious stepmother. From then on, I lost all information about my son.
My stepmother and stepsister have been threatening me with the whereabouts of my son. I can’t let this pass.
But just down the steps of the Kamel apartment building, I actually saw Peter.
Peter looked as if he had come prepared. As soon as he saw me, he approached me solicitously, a bouquet of roses in his hand. He smiled, thinking he was handsome. “Hello, beautiful lady. May I get to know you?”
Peter, who avoided and detested me, and even wanted me dead, is now trying to please me. I felt sick.
Ignoring him, I waved my hand to knock off the big bouquet of roses he handed to me and continued walking.
Behind him, Peter rubbed his chin and sighed. “What a personality, but I like her better now. You guys haven’t found out who she is?”
The man next to Peter bowed his head. “I’m sorry, Master Peter. It’s as if she just appeared out of nowhere. There’s no information.”
“Enough! Keep an eye on her! Useless things!”
