Chapter 850 Dishonest
Shirley, who was struggling a moment ago, froze after hearing Skyler’s words. As he stared at her intensely, he mumbled, “Do you know why I brought you here to the hidden clan?” “W-Why?”
“I-I have feelings for you. I’m afraid that the old fox, Garrick, will plot against you, and I’m even more afraid that the lover boy, Wade, will win your heart. You’re all that I’ve ever wanted. Y-You came into my life and stole my heart, so you need to take responsibility.” Without stopping his actions, he confessed to her affectionately since he was drunk.
Of course, he might just be telling her the truth under the influence of alcohol.
At that moment, Shirley had forgotten to struggle and was immersed in his words. All she could feel was her heart pounding quickly. “B-But things are impossible between… us. You already have Sofia, your fiancée.”
“It’s impossible between Sofia and me. We will never get married. The person that I have feelings for is you…” After saying that, he leaned forward once again and kissed her on the lips while interlocking her fingers with both his hands. “Y-You’re drunk, Skyler.” Shirley had to remind him.
“I don’t care. I just want you.” As he said that, his actions became more brazen. Instantly, her mind went blank, and she wanted to resist, but the comfort she felt made her weak. Despite telling herself to get her head straight, her feelings for him dominated her rationality.
Just this once… Right. How many times can I let myself go in my life? It’s just this once, Shirley! You can only let yourself go this one time!
After convincing herself internally, she lifted her hands to wrap them around his neck and transformed passivity into an initiative. Following that, with their great chemistry in the dark, they satisfied all their desires before falling asleep in each other’s embrace.
Throughout the night, Shirley’s heart was racing so fast that she stayed wide awake. She told herself that Skyler was drunk and that he would surely forget everything the next day he woke up.
So, she quietly waited for the man beside her to breathe smoothly before she moved his hands away stealthily and stood up slowly to escape from the ‘crime scene’.
However, just as she stood up, Skyler dragged her back and pressed her right onto the bed. “Are you trying to run away after having a taste of my body?”
At once, her eyes widened. “A-Aren’t you drunk?”
When he heard that, he replied with a cheeky smirk, “Hey, I was just tipsy.” How could he have such an amorous night with her if he was so drunk that his whole world was spinning?
“You!” She was embarrassed and mad at the same time, which caused her face to redden. At that moment, she didn’t know what to say.
“What about me?” He lifted her chin with his long fingers and leaned forward to nibble her lips affectionately. “Why don’t we talk about you?”
“About what?”
“Let’s start from the first time you laid your hands on me. You already had feelings for me since then. Am I right?”
At that time, Skyler didn’t miss any of her reactions as soon as she woke up, and he could clearly see the struggle in her eyes. Only when she initiated their interactions while unconsciously calling out his name did he notice that she felt the same for him.
When Shirley heard his question, she turned around and didn’t dare look him in the eyes. “No. That’s not true.”
Hearing that, he put on a teasing smile and whispered beside her ears, “Your body says otherwise.”
“I…” She had no comeback, so she turned around and glared at him.
When they looked each other in the eyes, Skyler could see the anger in her eyes. Finally, she admitted to his claims, though in an annoyed manner. “Yes! I have feelings for you! So what? You’re some affluent young man from the Robins Family, and you have a fiancée. So what if I have feelings for you? I’ve already tried my best to distance myself from you, Skyler, but you still kept pestering me and even brought me to the hidden clan!”
