His gaze was too sharp, and Sumr Shawcross felt a bit uneasy being stared at by him.
She had no idea how she had provoked him again.
After a ten-second silence, Sumr suddenly realized sothing, raised her head seriously to look at him, and then vowed sincerely.
"But don’t worry, if sothing like this happens again, I’ll be right on the front line to protect you!"
Although her words had a touch of flattery, they were truly heartfelt.
Now, the only people she wanted to protect were him and her brother, Sean Shawcross.
She thought the reason for his displeasure was because soone had tried to harm her earlier, and she ran away at the first chance...
As soon as she finished speaking, Noah Drexler’s eyes changed, his dark gaze fell on her extrely earnest little face, and his heart pounded again!
A trace of emotion flickered across his handso face.
The woman who just monts ago had been frightened pale was now saying she wanted to protect him. This had to be the funniest joke he had ever heard!
"Silly woman!" he couldn’t help but murmur softly.
His voice had barely fallen when he couldn’t resist raising his hand, pulling the little woman into his arms, and hugging her tightly!
Sumr was startled, shocked by his sudden action, and as she was about to raise her head to look at him, he suddenly lowered his head, cupped her cheeks with his large hands, and kissed her lips.
With her lips blocked, Sumr’s body tensed. After a few seconds, she slowly closed her eyes.
After a deep, lingering kiss, Noah reluctantly released her, but his slender fingers still lingered on her face, gently stroking...
Each touch made Sumr’s heartbeat follow, out of rhythm.
He looked down at her slightly flushed face for a mont, then pursed his thin lips and suddenly instructed her domineeringly in a low voice.
"Next ti you encounter such a situation, stay in the safest place and do nothing!"
His voice caused Sumr to be taken aback again, with a look of shock and confusion on her face.
"But earlier you..."
Wasn’t he just upset because she ran away, and now he’s telling her to sit back and do nothing...
"That’s not the sa thing."
His earlier anger with her was because she had seen another woman trying to approach him and acted as if nothing had happened before turning and leaving.
"How is it not the sa?" Sumr looked at him full of confusion.
"Stop nagging!" Noah furrowed his brows, and a trace of awkwardness flashed across his handso face.
His pride at this mont wouldn’t allow him to admit in front of her that his displeasure was about such a thing!
Just as Sumr was planning to continue questioning him, Noah suddenly raised his hand, and with a light flick of his slender fingers, his belt was undone.
"What are you doing..." Sumr scread in surprise at his action and quickly turned her gaze away.
"Changing clothes!" Noah pursed his thin lips. He didn’t like to have any unpleasant slls on him, so naturally, he had to change his entire outfit!
"..." Hearing his words, Sumr’s face showed more signs of embarrassnt.
Turns out she was overthinking it, but ever since that one night she was tricked by the butler’s soup, she’s beco a bit sensitive about certain things...
As his gaze swept over her face, noticing her panic, a glint crossed his eyes, and his handso face showed a bit more interest.
