Chapter 475: Parents' lookout

"Do you even know what being in the closet means, Nicolai?" Ari was speechless. As she thought that man truly spoke without thinking, what in the world did he mean by those words? 

"I do. Though it's usually used when someone is hiding their sexuality, it's not really different when it comes to you, is it?" Nicolai remarked with a smirk. "I mean you have shoved me inside your closet like a dirty little secret, it breaks my heart whenever I see you acting so formal with me in public when you call my name so passionately—"

"Mister de Luca!" Ari hissed at the man while looking around the banquet hall with a flustered expression. She truly had to give it to Nicolai, he knew how to grind her nerves in the worst possible manner. 

However, Ari tried to keep herself in control. After all, she could not allow this man to make a fool out of herself in front of others.
