Tricked
Over on the island, the dazzling rays of sunlight filtered through the screened window into a room. The
man lying on the bed massaged his slightly throbbing head, then slowly opened his eyes. Suddenly, his
gaze darkened, and his entire body radiated a chilling aura.
D*mn it! I can’t believe I got tricked! In all my years doing what I do, no one has ever managed to put
one over on me. It never occurred to me that I’d fall for Micah’s scheme on my first day on the island.
Indeed, Gaspar thought his sexual encounter with Anna was by Micah’s design. He knows I live on the
edge, yet he still sent his daughter into my bed. What’s his purpose in doing so?
Before he could make any sense of it, Anna’s eyes fluttered open. When she saw him staring at her
with a gaze as dark as thunder, she shot him a seductive smile. Then, she quickly flung her arms
around his neck and gazed at him. “See. No matter how stubborn you are, you still became mine.” After
saying that, she released one arm around him and hooked a finger under his chin. “Maddox, who
satisfies you better between the sheets? Me or your wife?”
One of Gaspar’s hands moved to grab Anna’s, and he stared at her coldly. “Maddox?”
I can’t believe she slept with me because she mistook me for someone else! That thought annoyed him
to no end.
“Maddox, don’t think you can forget your place just because you went on that drug deal with Dennis
and were my father’s honored guest after your return. You’re the slave I bought. If you don’t please me,
you’ll just be a slave anyone can bully on this island for the rest of your life,” Anna said with a snort.
Gaspar looked solemn after he heard those words.
Maddox, Vinson, Arielle… She thinks I’m Vinson. I can’t believe Vinson would be so lucky and survive
the cruise ship’s explosion.
“I’m afraid you’ve got the wrong person. My name is Gaspar, not Maddox!” With that, Gaspar let go of
Anna’s hand, threw back the covers, and got out of bed to get dressed. Although she had spent the
night with him after taking him for someone else, as a man, it did not matter to him much that he got
tricked into sleeping with her. His eyes flicked toward the red stain on the bedsheet. After all, I have
nothing to lose.
His response left Anna dumbfounded. What does he mean by that? Does he mean to say I slept with
the wrong person? No, he has to be lying to me. That’s his plan!
She immediately turned to him and said, “Gaspar, you say? You’re Maddox. Do you think I’m going to
fall for your nonsense? Let me tell you this. We’ve already slept together, and you’re mine. You’re not
allowed to think about your wife anymore. I’ll tell my father to let us get married.”
Married?
Gaspar frowned. He had no intention of ever getting married. However, it’s not impossible to let Anna
become my lover. After all, Micah has no successor here. He might hand over his business to her in the
future. Then…
With that thought in mind, he strode to the side of the bed. He reached out and pinched Anna’s chin
between his fingers. “Forget about marriage. I’ve no plans to tie the knot in my lifetime. However, if
you’re interested in becoming my lover, I wouldn’t mind taking you in.”
After all, she’s the daughter of a wealthy family. She’s nothing like the other women under my control
who say nothing no matter what I do. However, what’s most important is Vinson in the whole matter.
Judging by what Anna said, he has left the island. Doesn’t that mean he can flee if he gets the
opportunity?
Narrowing his eyes as the thought crossed his mind, he made up his mind to have people closely
monitor the situation outside. Once they find Vinson, they’ll have to send him to his death.
