Chapter 1 What about now

• "Why do you want to buy my land again?" He asked.
• I contemplated what to answer. Well,  I clearly know the answer, I just don't want to explain it. "This is precious to me. There are many memories that happened here. Plus, I already had a plan. I want to cultivate this land and form it into my own farm and resting house.” 
• He raised his eyebrows at my response. "Just that?"
• My eyebrows met, looking at him in the eye. "What? I'm sure you know my grandfather is the past owner of this land and now, I want it back."
• At this moment, both of us were standing up now. His eyes were turning dark now. "Well, princess. It's unlikely to happen because as far as I know, I didn't put a 'For Sale sign outside this house. It's mine and I'll decide whether to sell it or not."
• I gritted my teeth. Damn this man. Annoying! I thought he was reasonable enough! 
• I sighed. Calm down, you are an elegant young lady. You are Sereia Philomena Hudson Isolde. You can do everything. Face this. 
• I blinked and heaved deeply. When I was calmed enough, I asked again, "You're really not going to sell it to me?"
• He shook his head. "No."
• I met his gaze, not daring to back down. His hazel eyes clashed against my brown eyes. I almost drowned in his gaze, feeling a bit intimidated. He then blinked, and I hatched a plan. 
• "What should I do for you to sell it? You're a billionaire, right? You're wealthy and can afford any land you want. Can't you just give this up?" I asked.
• I swear, I'll do anything, except selling my body or fake pretending to be his wife or something because I'll strongly reject that idea. 
• He paused, considering my request for a second before grinning. "Well, there is a way..."
• My ears perked up at that. "What is it?" 
• He pointed at his lips, smirking as he looked at my lips. "A kiss...How about you kiss me? 
• I thought about it for a second before agreeing, "Okay."
• His eyebrows raised at that, surprised at my answer. "Wow, you're really agreeing just like that? That easy?"  
• "I'm not easy. I'm just desperate." I interjected him. 
• He shook his head. "I see. So you're really that desperate to regain your land. You'll really do it right?"
• "Yes," I answered and without thinking, I leaned into him and smashed my lips on his. 
• A gasp escapes from his lips, watching me do all of that. He really couldn't believe it. 
• The kiss lasted for only a few seconds and I pulled away from him quickly. 
• I smirked at him, then winked. "What about now?" 
• I already gave my first kiss away anyway. It's not like I'm losing anything. And I don't care anymore. 
• Phoenix blinked, pulled from a trance. He sighed dreamily, touching his lips. 
• How did we get into this position you ask? Believe me, I'm confused.
