had left her flushed and him frustrated in a fiercely cruel fashion.
Jeremy watched her bolt up the stairs to the front door of her flat, the kind of flat that only rich girls lived in. She didn’t turn back to wave at him before letting herself into the stylish town house. A light came on immediately, showing him that her flat was on the ground floor, which was always the most expensive. The upper floor and the basement flats would be cheaper. Though not much. Since investigating property prices in London more thoroughly, Jeremy knew that the most dilapidated flat in this area cost close to a million pounds.
He sat staring at the far from dilapidated town house for a few seconds before telling the driver to go on, his mind and his body in turmoil. It annoyed him that he hadn’t found out a single personal detail about Alice tonight other than her lack of a boyfriend. He hadn’t satisfied his rabid curiosity about her at all, let alone satisfied that other urgent need that had now arisen to torment him. Jeremy could not remember the last occasion he’d gone home alone after a date with a girl he liked. In actual fact, he couldn’t recall that ever happening. Not that tonight was a proper date, he reassured his bruised male ego. Still, it rankled that for the first time in his life a girl had actually said no to him, especially one who he felt confident was sexually attracted to him.
By the time Jeremy exited the taxi in front of his stylish mews house three streets away, his resolve was firmly back in place, his ego refusing to accept her rejection. The bottom line was that he wanted Alice Waterhouse as he’d never wanted a girl before. And he meant to have her. End of story.
