Let Me Go My Mafia Husband (Aria and Alessandro) novel Chapter 449

Chapter 449 She Can't Resist Me Ⅰ
Logan's POV.

We had made reservations at a picturesque wildlife resort, the perfect setting to host our company's annual function. Anticipation filled the air as every employee eagerly looked forward to the delightful stay and exquisite meals that awaited them.

However, despite the joyous atmosphere, Mia remained distant and maintained her professional demeanor. It was clear that she was purposely keeping her interactions with me limited, which only fueled my desire to make her feel the undeniable connection between us. I yearned for the moment when my carefully laid plans would come to fruition, leaving her unable to resist my charm any longer.

As the first day at the resort unfolded, we arranged a captivating bonfire event accompanied by live music. The entire gathering was invited to participate in playing music and singing, and I couldn't help but notice the

incredible talents that hid within our office-singers, musicians, and guitarists who were eager to showcase their skills.

To enhance the ambiance of the evening, a delectable live barbecue was organized, allowing everyone to relish their dinner amidst the enchanting openness of the surroundings. Laughter and conversation filled the air, with colleagues thoroughly enjoying the occasion. However, my attention was solely fixed on Mia. I observed her every movement, closely following her

interactions with some male colleagues from the office who attempted to approach her. Yet, with grace and kindness, she politely brushed them off.

Moments later, Mia excused herself and started walking towards the nearby forest. The prospect of having a chance to be alone with her was both thrilling and nerve-wracking. Deciding to seize the opportunity, I discreetly trailed behind her, keeping a respectful distance to avoid intruding on her solitude.

After parting ways with the crowd, I quickened my pace, taking long strides to catch up to her. As I reached her, I gently grabbed her hand and pulled her closer to me. The impact of her soft body against my solid frame startled her.

"Mr. Mancini, what are you doing? You scared me," she exclaimed, her hand instinctively placed on her chest in an attempt to calm her racing heart.

"That's exactly what I wanted to ask you. What are you doing in this dark forest? You know it could be dangerous for a beautiful girl to walk alone here," I responded, wrapping an arm around her waist. The moonlight filtered through the tall trees, casting an ethereal glow upon us, revealing a slight blush on her cheeks.

"So, you came here to protect me?" she challenged, her feisty spirit reawakening.

"Of course, I am your knight in shining armor," I retorted playfully, a teasing grin forming on my lips.

"Yeah? And who will save me from you?" she countered with a hint of mischief in her voice.

"Why would you want to be saved from me when your own body longs to surrender?" I whispered, leaning closer to her face. The warmth of her breath against my skin ignited a passionate desire within me.
