"..."
His words left Sumr Shawcross speechless.
He lowered his gaze, looking at her sharply, and his handso face was sullen, still not looking good.
"I’m sorry..." she paused, unable to hold back her voice.
She knew her actions today had put him in a difficult position too.
But... she had no choice.
Her sudden apology made Noah Drexler’s face pause, and he couldn’t help but frown.
Just as he was about to say sothing, she suddenly lowered her head and then leaned into his embrace.
He looked down at the woman suddenly leaning into his arms, and his sharp gaze softened a bit.
"Noah Drexler, the past is the past. Now that you have , I can’t let you take such risks." She leaned against his comforting chest, biting her lip as she spoke.
In the past, he could disregard his own safety because he was alone and didn’t have to worry about such things.
But now, he’s married and has a wife. She can’t let him take risks.
...
As her words fell, the man’s body stiffened a bit.
The handso face was montarily dumbfounded... the expression beca complex.
He was sowhat delighted yet also felt sorry for her...
She said, now he has her... so she can’t let him take risks.
He never thought there would be a day when she would care about him so much.
Just as his body stiffened, the woman in his arms spoke again in a gentle voice.
"So... if my behavior really made you angry, you can punish however you want."
As she spoke, Sumr Shawcross slowly lifted her head from his embrace, looking at him with sincere eyes.
If he really was angry, she was willing to be punished to help him calm down.
After she finished speaking, Noah Drexler kept his gaze on her, lost in thought.
His dark eyes flickered with light...
After a mont, he moved his lips, suddenly pressing them together in agreent.
"Okay."
Just as she showed a surprised expression, the man suddenly raised his hand, reaching for her face.
She was startled and instinctively closed her eyes.
This man... could he be thinking of hitting her?
Her fearful expression with her eyes closed made Noah Drexler’s extended hand freeze.
His handso, good-looking face wore an amused expression.
The woman who just said he could punish her however he wanted was now so scared she closed her eyes.
He couldn’t help but curve his thin lips. Two seconds later, his slender fingers landed on her cheek.
His long fingers ended up pinching her face.
Sumr Shawcross was stunned, opening her eyes in surprise, looking at him.
The way he decided to punish her was by pinching her face?
"If you joke about your life again, I won’t spare you!" Noah Drexler looked down, fixing her with a serious gaze, his voice still carrying a trace of unresolved anger.
He’s five years older than she is. Her nonsense has always seed like a little girl’s antics to him and never truly angered him.
The reason he was angry today was that she was being reckless with her life!
This touched the limits of his indulgence towards her!
As he spoke, the man increased the pressure of his fingers slightly.
Sumr Shawcross froze for a while, the pain on her face making her frown.
"Noah Drexler, my face..." she opened her mouth, exclaiming.
Although she didn’t rely on her looks to make a living, she was still soone in the entertainnt industry. If her face got swollen, how would she face people?
