chapter 17

Their gaze were locked for quite a while and he didn't make any move to look away. He liked what he was looking at very well. For a minute there his gaze flickered to her lips and he swallowed thickly. That drew her attention away from his eyes and she imitated him, staring at his lips, moving inches towards him.

He told himself a thousand times that he should look away but he couldn't do it. No matter how hard he tried, he found himself leaning towards her.

The door slammed shut and Daniel cursed silently. He made sure to see who it was before stepping away from his wife.

"Henry, a pleasure seeing you again." Daniel couldn't hide the smirk that found its way his face.

"Is everything alright?" Henry asked trying to hide his amusement. He had obviously seen the whole thing to have that smile on his face. Clarissa nodded finding her way around her table to have a sit.

"Why wouldn't it be?" Daniel replied with a little enthusiasm than Henry expected. Henry raised a brow before shrugging.
