MIMI 178 Awakening Feelings

As a result…

The two figures sat in silence.

Mimi glanced out the window and blinked at the passing scenery. Tobias kept his eyes up front, his expression blank. Neither took the initiative to speak and proceeded in silence.

It wasn't long before they arrived in front of her company.

Stepping out of the car, Mimi silently strode toward the entrance. When entering the company, employees passing by turned to bow in greeting to their boss, but were stunned stiff upon the sight before them.

Behind their boss stood a tall cold figure, the aura radiating off of him was opposing and chilling.

The man had on a black shirt, black suit pants, and a cold, noble presence. This man, whether it was his tall, broad body, his dangerously attractive features or his oppressive temperament - in a word, the man could be defined as perfect and impeccable. His cold chiseled face and dark, cold eyes sent various episodes of chilling sensations down people's spines.

Some in fear, some in lust, others with admiration to be among such a noble, successful figure.

Without a doubt, this man was a god!

Despite their stunned and filled stares, Tobias, from the beginning, never retracted his gaze from the girl in front of him while he followed her.

As if she hadn't noticed the man or their stares, Mimi continued to greet her employees and headed to the elevator.

Under everyone's penetrating gazes, the two disappeared behind the elevator's closed doors.

The fuck…

Wasn't this President Tobias Itou of Glory Trade Corporation? What was he doing here? And why was he following their boss like an obedient puppy dog?!

…

When Mimi walked into her office, she noticed Jean sitting behind her desk. She had her head down, staring at her hands like a child who did something wrong.

Spotting this, Mimi inwardly sighed and looked at the man stalling behind her who looked back ignorantly.

Look at what you did! Bullying my poor Jean into silence!

Mimi huffed in her heart and shifted her gaze away from the man. Entering her office, Mimi loosened the tie around her neck and slumped down in her seat, the sound of the door closing clicked behind her.

"Well then, what did you want to talk about? I have a meeting in forty minutes, so---"

Mimi did not have the chance to finish her sentence before she heard a heavy thud behind her. Startled, she turned her gaze to see the large man kneeling on her office floor.

Seeing this unexpected scene, Mimi's eyes widened.

"Uwaah! What are you doing?!" She shot up from her desk and rushed over to the big man.

Mimi reached to tug Tobias up, but, as expected, this beastly man was too heavy! Damn all this muscle, she couldn't even make him budge!

"Hng! Hrr! Hnnn!" Again, she tried to yank the man up. "Tobias, get up this is---"

Ignoring her struggles and words to get him up from the floor, Tobias raised his head, and his black eyes were completely blazing with seriousness.

"I'm sorry."

Mimi's motion of attempting to pull Tobias up paused for a moment. She looked down at the man with a strange expression. Noticing the girl was silently staring at him without a word, Tobias suddenly felt tense.

Unexpectedly, Tobias clutched her hand into his and sank his legs deeper into the floor, pulling the girl along with him.

Holding her hand tightly, the man declared seriously, "Mimi, I'm sorry. I'm so sorry. I know that it seems like I do these things because I don't trust you, but I do. More than anyone. I know that I ruined your trust in me. I never wanted you to doubt me and my intentions."

Mimi stared stunned at the man kneeling before her. A man of little words has made the effort to apologize. Opening her mouth to speak, Tobias's deep voice spoke up again.

"But, I don't regret my actions."

Mimi: "…"

Well, then what the hell was the point of that apology?!

Tobias continued, the man's tone was low and hoarse, implicit and ambiguous. "Mimi, I want you safe. You might not like it, but I'd rather you hate me than watch you run off and hurt yourself."

Mimi was so stunned her mouth parted a little.

There was a deadpan expression on his handsome face. Only his eyes were very hot. When his cold black eyes stared at her, she had no response to give. Mimi could feel her goosebumps rising from being stared at like that.

Cold, intelligent, ruthless, dangerous - these were the qualities of him she knew from the beginning. But at this time, Mimi thought for it to be different.

It was dangerously too seductive…

Oh my, her heart was suddenly racing like some lovesick girl!

Even though Mimi was in shock, she still was able to process what was said. Although Mimi thought Tobias's words were strange and a little on the scary side, she couldn't help but feel moved.

Ah, this foolish man was just too precious!

Mimi stared at Tobias in silence for a moment before sighing loudly, "All right. Come on get up, your knees will start to hurt."

She tried to lift him yet again, but the man wouldn't budge. Mimi pouted and shot the bear-like man a glare. Tobias looked at her with a still expression. His pupils were like a blade instantly gazing at, trying to peer into her soul.

"Do you forgive me?"

Mimi blinked and her face twisted slightly.

"If I say yes will you get up from the floor?

Tobias straightforwardly replied, "If you mean it."

Mimi showed a strange expression, then raised her lips and sighed, "Okay, okay, I forgive you. Now stand up already."

Though she didn't express it, seeing a grown, handsome man kneeling before her and pleading for forgiveness stirred her sadistic, teasing fantasies.

If he stayed any longer she was afraid the teasing demon within her wouldn't be able to hold back!

After hearing Mimi's words, Tobias calmed down, although his anxiousness remained present. He just gazed up at her, his pitch-black eyes looking deep and bottomless with a hint of uncertainty as if he was searching to see whether or not she was lying.

After a while, he nodded his head and stood up from the floor.

Mimi did not have the chance to breathe a sigh of relief before the man's large shadow loomed over her and leaned forward. She suddenly felt a hot breath on her neck and shivered a little from the feeling.

At only 150 cm, her height was shorter than the average teenage girl, making the man's tall, broad figure practically swallow her.

"Tobias?"

Tobias did not say anything. Instead, his arms hugging her neck tightened. Conceiting defeat, Mimi patted the bear-like man on the back. Plus, she was already accustomed to his unusual clinginess.

His throaty voice sounded in her ear, "Do you hate me?"

"Eh? What makes you think that?" Mimi cast a sideways glance at the man.

"Because I invaded your privacy. And…" His words were cut off by his head burying into her neck and the short strands of her hair. "You ignored me for five days."

His deep voice was soft and hoarse. It sounded so pitiful and helpless.

The warm air from Tobias's breathing fanned on Mimi's skin, she felt an indescribable warmth surge throughout her body. She shrank her neck in subconsciously.

Ah, it felt so tingling!

Mimi huffed a breath of frustration and gently patted his back.

"Tobias, look at me for a moment."

For the first few seconds, the man didn't move, seeming slightly reluctant. After a while, he pulled himself away. Mimi raised her head and seriously gazed at the man in front of her, the man's figure shining clearly in her bright, green pupils.

"I admit, I was angry at you before. But…"

As Mimi's voice fell, the corner of her lips curled into a playful grin, "Seeing as you came here to personally apologize to me, I forgive you!"

Mimi was unwilling to admit it, but she knew that her past actions and negligence toward herself resulted in the man to behave this way.

Especially if he was so set on keeping her safe.

It was hard to be mad when the reason for this outcome was because of her own doing.

Tobias blanked for a moment, a deep frown creasing his face. He was almost unsure whether to be relieved or unsettled by her response. Mimi noticed the smoldering expression on his face and giggled.

He was brooding. How cute!

The man's meticulously combed black hair had turned into a disheveled mess. It was probably because he rushed to meet her at the restaurant.

As if thinking of something, the girl's eyes brightened mirthfully. Mimi stretched out her white fingertips to smoothen the frown creasing his forehead.

Alas, the man's tall height prevented her from doing so. At this, Mimi puffed out her cheeks.

Damn this attractive mountain! She could hardly touch his hair with her fingertips!

Quickly understanding what she wanted to do, Tobias buckled his knees slightly and lowered himself for her to reach. Mimi blinked her twinkling eyes before laughing softly.

"From now on though, I will listen to your words and be careful. As long as you learn to respect my space and privacy."

"...Mhm."

Tobias's emotionless eyes were fixed on the girl.

Her disguise didn't have the masculine and attractive appearance of a manly man but instead emitted a delicate softness. Silk-like skin, milky white and delicate - too soft to be a man's.

The girl's smile was sincere and lively like the glowing sun, her facial features brightening. At the sight of her big, wide green eyes with the slightest tinge of violet, his heart trembled.

"That being said, you should take care of yourself too, Toby."

Mimi's fingertips softly brushed his bangs away to reveal his deep, dark eyes staring down at her. Peeping out from his somewhat messy bangs was the man's striking facial features.

Observing her features more clearly, the fists by his side clenched.

"Ah, look, you have bags underneath your eyes! Jeez, you dare tell me to take care of myself!"

The trembling sensation within his heart intensified.

The girl sighed softly, "The way you put me first worries me. Take better care of yourself, all right?"

When Mimi's big, twinkling eyes had stared unblinking at him, Tobias had felt his whole body heating up. Whilst the girl was enjoying the feeling of the man's soft, smooth hair, Tobias suddenly straightened his back and stepped away.

Unknown to the girl, but Tobias at that moment, felt something - a feeling he had never felt before.
