153 Arthur Slowly Showed His Dislike
“Hey, Arthur. Do you think it’s scarier for me to get HIV or to get pregnant because of you?”
Arthur frowned, still having to digest the words that came out of Kalea’s mouth. “What do you mean?”
“Like I said earlier. Between those two options, which one makes you panic more?”
“...both. Why are you suddenly bringing this up? Are you pregnant?” Arthur asked holding Kalea’s arm, his gaze dropping to the girl’s stomach as if to make sure that his sugar baby was okay.
Kalea smiled, she brushed off Arthur’s hand and moved away from him slightly. “So you’d freak out more if I were pregnant?”
“What, I told you both!”
“But you only asked if I was pregnant or not!” Kalea retorted, raising her tone of voice. Her angry expression was on full display, Arthur was shocked and could not argue anymore.
Arthur was silent for a moment, letting Kalea’s emotions subside first until they could communicate with equally cool minds.
“Hey, what exactly happened? Tell me, we can talk about it nicely, right?” Arthur tried to sulk with such a soft tone of voice. His gray eyes gazed at Kalea intensely, without any judgment.

“You have to choose one or the other, Arthur. Are you going to continue living sexually with multiple partners? Aren’t you afraid that diseases will come to you easily?” Kalea asked boldly, but it was all for Arthur’s own good.
It was not just that Kalea said it with the intention of making Arthur hers, although if her love was unrequited, Kalea hoped Arthur would change from his promiscuous lifestyle.
Kalea got a little chill when Arthur’s expression changed drastically to a very cold one as if he was holding back the turmoil of anger from within him. The man responded, “So now you’re attacking me? Isn’t it written in the contract that it’s okay if I still do it with other women?”
“But there’s no rule that says what you do can harm me too. You’re the one who’s intimate with others, but I can also get hurt,” Kalea retorted, not to be outdone.

Kalea unconsciously clenched her fists tightly, glaring at Arthur because now her feelings were hurt by the man’s words. “You also know about my mother, right? I agreed to it unwillingly because I had nothing left.”
Arthur sighed heavily, massaging his groin. A sudden dizziness hit him, he had come to the penthouse intending to recharge, but it turned out that his sugar baby had drained Arthur’s energy to almost nothing.
“I don’t want this discussion to go anywhere. So answer my question, between the two choices you gave earlier, which one happened to you?” Arthur asked, returning to the topic.
Kalea did not answer. She got up from her seat and without saying a word, she went to her room, leaving Arthur alone. She closed the door with a loud bang as if to let him know that she was really angry.
Meanwhile, Arthur took a deep breath and finally followed Kalea into the room. The girl was getting ready for bed, Arthur climbed into bed, and sitting next to Kalea.
“Lea, please don’t ignore me like this. We have to talk about it until it’s completely over.” Arthur said, still sulking at Kalea.
“Don’t ignore you? You didn’t tell me at all. At least if you’re leaving, please reply to my message, even if it’s just one word!” Kalea retorted irritably, her emotions not yet able to subside.
“I’m sorry, it was my fault. You can scold me, but please tell me about what you said earlier.”
“I’m just asking, it didn’t necessarily happen,” Kalea replied as she pulled the blanket back over Arthur.
Arthur blinked, he pulled Kalea’s shoulders back to face him. “So you’re saying you didn’t get pregnant or get a sexual disease?”
“Yeah, I was just wondering what your reaction would be.”
“...Why did it have to come to that?” asked Arthur with a heavy sigh as he rubbed his face. He was really being played by Kalea.
“Can’t you stop doing it with other women?” Kalea pleaded, which immediately made Arthur look at her in surprise.
“What? You forbid me?”
“It’s not that I’m forbidding you. But the risk of developing sexual diseases is greater because of your promiscuous lifestyle, Arthur. And now that I’m really thinking about it...,” said Kalea looking down, not daring to return Arthur’s gaze that might strongly reject her request.
Of course, she was just a sugar baby that Arthur could stop at any time. She was not that important a person to change Arthur’s sex life. Even his family was up in arms.
“Didn’t I tell you that I always check my health?”
“But no one knows what the future holds. Do you really think you’re safe from a disease like that?” Kalea retorted.
“I know you mean well. But I can’t do it yet, Lea. So please, don’t push me or I’ll get uncomfortable with you,” Arthur said as he got off the bed intending to take a shower.
Until Arthur entered the bathroom, Kalea was still frozen. She was thinking about Arthur’s words just now, which said that he was uncomfortable with her.
“Getting uncomfortable?” muttered Kalea as she pulled the blanket over her. Her mind began to wander, wondering if Arthur knew about her love for him. Recalling what had happened recently, she really couldn’t guess Arthur’s attitude.
Because Arthur had always received her treatment so sweetly, they still had sex often. It did not look like Arthur was uncomfortable with him at all. Then what did Arthur mean by what he said earlier?
Kalea closed her mouth, beginning to realize that Arthur had been out of touch a few times and had been going out more often. As if he did not want to spend too much time with Kalea. Kalea did not realize that quickly, thinking that Arthur’s attitude had always been like that.
Kalea believed that Arthur knew her feelings but remained silent as if he wanted to know how far Kalea would go.
The brunette girl did not go to bed until Arthur had finished bathing.
“You’re not asleep yet?” asked Arthur in surprise as he walked towards his wardrobe. However, Kalea did not answer, just playing with her cell phone. “Go to bed first. I still have work to do.”
Kalea immediately put down her cell phone and focused on her sugar daddy. “What? It’s late, Arthur. You better get some rest.”
“After my work is done. Don’t worry, I’ll catch up later,” Arthur said as he walked out of the room to his study.
However, until 2 pm, when Arthur was done with his work, Kalea had not fallen asleep. Arthur looked at the girl in surprise, walked over to Kalea, and joined her in the same bed as his sugar baby.
“Hey, why aren’t you sleeping yet? I told you not to wait for me,” Arthur scolded, pinching Kalea’s cheeks.
“You’re so confident that I waited for you. I’ve been watching a lot of videos on this app!” Kalea replied as she swatted Arthur’s hand away to stop pinching her.

Kalea did not protest, although she grumbled a little, but she complied and began to adjust her position so that she could sleep comfortably.
Kalea continued to watch Arthur, who was now facing her as well. Their eyes met, Arthur’s piercing gazes not quite visible due to the dimness of the room, but it still made Kalea’s heart race. If she could, she would love to reverse her feelings. She did not want to fall in love with a bad and good man like Arthur at the same time.
Arthur, who was feeling the constant attention, rubbed Kalea’s face to close her hazel eyes. “Good night, little girl,” he said with a faint smile.
“Arthur,” Kalea called out, ignoring the man’s words.
“Hm?”
“Why didn’t you hug me?” Kalea asked, demanding Arthur’s treatment that seemed to have become their routine when sleeping together.
“Ah... I was about to,” Arthur replied and pulled Kalea’s body closer so he could hug her. He also gently stroked Kalea’s back to make her comfortable, and she soon drifted off to dreamland.
Kalea returned the hug, burying her face in Arthur’s firm chest.
“You’re emotionally unstable today, aren’t you?” Arthur asked his head now on top of Kalea’s.
“Yes, it’s your fault,” Kalea replied simply.
Arthur smiled bitterly, he kissed the top of Kalea’s head briefly. “Sorry. Next time, if I don’t tell you anything, you don’t have to worry about me.”
“Haha, okay. You must be with another woman, right? I’m sorry for disturbing you.” Kalea bit her lower lip, what she suspected earlier seemed to become clearer if Arthur intended to keep his distance from her.
“It’s okay, it was my fault for not telling you earlier.”
“Are you leaving this afternoon too?” Kalea asked, ignoring her growing pains.
“Yes. Lea, you can take Zeline out for some fun, use my money to buy whatever you want.”
Kalea just nodded slowly, unable to make a sound for fear that her voice would turn out to sound like crying. She did not want Arthur to notice.
It was wrong, it was wrong for Kalea to expect Arthur to like her more than the contract. Arthur was really guarding his feelings, while Kalea was easily ensnared by the man’s charms.
