The warmth of those little moments made Shirley’s heart beat uncontrollably for Cole. Despite the hardships of daily training, they would seem as sweet as eating sugar as long as she could catch a glimpse of him. She would rush to the field just to see him. Wasn’t love supposed to be like this?
Her heart was in chaos. In the end, she shook off everything that happened tonight. She firmly believed that she absolutely could not have any intimate behavior with Zacharias in the future for the sake of being with Cole.
This was out of respect for love and Cole. Zacharias must be lacking a woman around him, which led to such actions.
The sound of rain outside diminished. Shirley suddenly remembered something and immediately sat up before going to the door to lock it from the inside.
Zacharias was like an out-of-control wild beast who was ready to attack at any moment. She had to be on guard against him.
Zacharias lay on the bed in the master bedroom, thinking about the two consecutive kissing incidents. In the end, he concluded that he truly liked this girl.
Otherwise, he wouldn’t have put so much effort into caring for her.
Although she had warned and rejected him twice, he was not in a hurry. He would slowly make her understand his feelings..
His eyes flickered with a determined light, like a hunter locking onto the prey he liked. He wouldn’t give up no matter what.
That night, the bodyguards outside had no idea what had happened in the villa. In the early morning, Shirley got up and looked at the mist-shrouded sky outside. The rain had turned into a drizzle.
She remembered that Zacharias would go to pay respects to his mother today. Should she go with him? She went to the independent bathroom to brush her teeth and wash her face, preparing for the day.
Shirley wore professional trousers and tied her long hair behind her head. She exuded a refreshing and heroic aura.
She opened the door and coincidentally heard the main bedroom door opening as well. The two people who stepped out faced each other directly.
Shirley had figured it out last night. She shouldn’t offend this man during her internship. Even if she was taken advantage of, she could only count herself unlucky.
“Good morning, Mr. Flintstone.” Shirley stood straight and greeted him. Her expression was no longer nervous and flustered like last night; it was calm and rational.
Zacharias looked at her and there was a slight disappointment in his heart. This just showed that he didn’t matter much to her.
“Let’s go downstairs,” he said and took the lead. She followed him downstairs. It was still early, so they had time for breakfast. He stood in front of the kitchen and started to prepare breakfast. The coffee machine on the side had already been turned on.
Shirley lit the fireplace. The morning chill filled the wooden cabin. She wasn’t concerned about herself but rather about Zacharias, who was usually in an environment with constant temperature. She didn’t want him to catch a cold.
After all, many national matters were waiting for him to handle. The sizzling aroma wafted over; he was making scrambled eggs. Given the limited conditions, they had to do whatever was available.
After about fifteen minutes, the man came over with breakfast, saying, “Eat while it’s hot.”
Shirley sat down, and he brought her a cup of coffee and a cup of warm milk. She avoided eye contact with him as much as possible. His gaze lingered on her face several times, yet she pretended not to see it.
“Do you need me to accompany you?” Shirley finally lifted her head and asked. If he didn’t, she could stay here and wait for him.
“Don’t you want to accompany me?” Zacharias looked over. Did she already start to dislike him?
“All right. I’ll accompany you.” She realized she had asked a redundant question again. After finishing breakfast, she washed the dishes. It was already 9.00AM when she was done.
He went upstairs and she found that when he came downstairs, he was holding a windbreaker and a scarf. The coat he brought this time was still hanging on the rack.
“Wear this. It’s cold outside,” Zacharias said to her.
