Thump!Sotiria was so startled that she accidentally dropped her phone into the bowl. However, she did not pick it up. Her face turned red as she stared at Zachary, “Please behave yourself, Mr. Connor. I’m married, and I won’t kiss any man other than my husband.””Really?”Zachary’s soul-stirring, beautiful eyes were filled with amusement and coldness.“But not only did you pounce on me to kiss me yesterday, but you did some awful things to me as well.”Sotiria felt her cheeks were burning. Just when she was about to explain that it was just an accident, she heard Zachary say apathetically in his seductive voice, “Since you can bring yourself to do something like that to me, I suppose giving me a kiss shouldn’t be a problem for you, right?” ‘Hold on a second!’Although he sounded unreasonable, Sotiria felt he was right. Her brain began to run wild and considering the fact that she had done everything that she was supposed and not supposed to do with him, giving him a kiss was
At the end of the day, it was just planting her lips on Zachary’s. It was not that big of a deal at all!Later, she just needed to close her eyes and graze his lips. Then, she would immediately turn around and leave. At that time, even if Zachary knew she was just brushing him off, she would have already given the kiss he had asked for, so he would have nothing to say anymore!“Yeah.”Zachary slowly lifted his head.Taking a deep breath to steel herself, Sotiria walked toward him. She bent down and planted a brief kiss on his perfectly shaped lips.When her lips contacted his, Sotiria’s body trembled as if she was electrocuted. Even though she was just going to brush him off, her heart still couldn’t help itself and leap into a gallop the moment she touched his lips. However, she was in full control of herself this time. After a brief collision, she immediately wanted to pull herself away from Zachary, but Zachary was not going to give her the chance to do so. He grabbed the
“Lory, I feel that you may have a little misunderstanding about Zachary and me. It’s not like what you think at all. There’s nothing between us…”Sotiria was stung by her conscience, and she could not finish her sentence.There was nothing between Zachary and her? No one would believe that, and she was certain that everyone in the city must have learned about the “scandal” between Zachary and her.Lorraine did not say anything. She just gnashed her teeth and stared at Sotiria. Sotiria had never seen such a heartbroken and saddened gaze before. She shivered in fear and walked past Lorraine with her head down.Garrison had told her before that Lorraine loved Zachary to the core.More often than not, the deeper a woman loved her fiancé, the more hurt she would be when she found out that he was cheating on her.Look!Lorraine could have thrown a tantrum, beat her, or scolded her after catching her “kissing” with Zachary. However, the fact that she could not say a word right now show
Of course, she understood it!Zachary was never a tolerant person. She was certain that Zachary would not remind her again the next time she committed the same mistake. He would make her pay for the price.For more than four years, this was the first time Zachary had looked her in the eyes. However, it was never in her wildest dream that the moment he finally looked her in the eyes would be the moment he was threatening her.“Also, remember this. Don’t ever badmouth Sotiria in front of me. Otherwise, I will make you regret it.”After that, Zachary turned around and left.“Ugh!“Waa…”Lorraine could not hold herself anymore and bawled her eyes out. Her crying wafted into Zachary’s ears, but he did not turn his head around. He continued to walk down the corridor with determined steps.Lorraine Larson—she was the only woman Zachary felt sorry for in this world.Lorraine had saved his life, but he had made her life a living hell in order to protect Charlotte that year.It was pre
“Jebediah, don’t scare me!” Lorraine’s body trembled, and her tear-stained face was as pale as death. “You should know better than anyone just how special the name ’Charlotte Simmons’ is to me. Didn’t you tell me the other day that you’re sure she’s dead? Why are you saying this to scare me now?”Jebediah’s handsome and well-defined face showed a hint of gentleness. “I told you that I’m only suspecting that. I investigated the accident four years ago. The woman trapped in the car was so burnt that only a pile of dry bones were left, and she was wearing the Queen’s Ring that Zach gave to Charlotte on her finger. Thus, the possibility that she isn’t Charlotte is almost zero. That’s also why no one has ever doubted her identity after so many years...“However, when I learned that Zach had had such intimate contact with Sotiria Green yesterday, I couldn’t help but think that Zach had no impulse toward any woman back then. The miracle only happened after meeting Charlotte. He became even
“Would you like to put it on and have a look?”Sotiria nodded. “Yeah.”She strode through the door and walked quickly to a mirror, but after taking a few steps forward, something came to her mind all of a sudden. “You said to me on the phone that you need to see me over something very important. Now that I’m back, why aren’t you telling me what that was?”At that moment, there was a hint of blush on Garrison’s cheeks, which added a little seductive coquettishness to his already handsome and eye-catching face. “First thing first, I already started to miss you. Secondly, I want to give these earrings to you as soon as possible. And finally... Ahem... Ahem...”Garrison’s throat seemed irritated.Sotiria looked at him nervously. “Did they manage to tie you to something?”“That’s not the case. I’ve already told you on the phone that what Zachary reported were trivial and minor issues. Although I cannot leave Rothesay for a while, I’ll be fine...” Garrison closed the door and rubbed hi
However, Sotiria did not go to change clothes immediately. Instead, she put on the earrings and admired herself in the mirror for a while, then took off the earrings and picked up the costume from the sofa.When she came to the bedroom, Sotiria let out a scream when she unfolded the costume and took a look at it at close range because of how sexy and voluptuous this costume looked. Almost 90% of it was made up of fishnet...Nonetheless, since Sotiria had promised Garrison that she would wear it, she could only bite the bullet and put it on.Sotiria only glanced in the mirror once and was too ashamed to look at herself again after putting the clothes on. She patted her beating chest silently, took a deep breath, and opened the bedroom door.“Aaah...” Garrison almost had a nosebleed when he saw Sotiria in the costume. A blaze of fanatical flames was burning in his vast and clear eyes. “Tiria, you’re so beautiful.”Sotiria lowered her head. “Thank you...”As soon as she said so, Gar
‘Oh my God! Garrison and I are a newlywed couple! Is it very irresponsible for me to have such a mentality?’“Tiria! I... I still can’t do it!” Garrison’s frustrated voice sounded.Sotiria’s eyes lit up, and there was a burst of ecstasy coming from her heart as if she had just escaped a calamity.‘No! Wait a minute!‘What’s the matter with me? Garrison is my legal husband and the person who spoils me and loves me the most in the world! He’s suffering another setback now, how could I feel so ecstatic!?‘I should be comforting him now!’“That...” Sotiria suppressed the undesirable sense of joy and rubbed Garrison’s head lightly. “Didn’t you encounter such an issue last night too? Haha... Don’t get me wrong. I didn’t mean to make fun of you. I mean, it’s only been a dozen hours since last night. You must not have recovered from the frustration yet. So don’t worry, it’ll get better in the future, am I right?”Garrison frowned sadly, and his Adam’s apple twitched. “Tiria, you must be
