Chapter 282 - A Pill (1/2)

Luo no longer continued the debate since she was too busy absorbing everything that happened a while ago. A lot of things were going inside her head, baffling and confusing her. A lot of questions were doing rounds and even making her panic.

'Is it really possible that he was jealous?' She mumbled trying to interpret Noah's reaction. Maybe Lana was right. Noah probably liked her… and whatever he said was not only because of the s.e.x.u.a.l tension between them?

She heaved a long sigh then sneaked side glances at Noah. He looked calmer now compared to before.

He was too focussed on driving and looked handsome even with a little stern look on his face… Luo was busy sneakily admiring his beauty when her mobile phone rang and she saw it was Daryl.

She was about to answer her phone but was suddenly startled when Noah, in a quick motion, snatched the phone from her hands and answered it before she could say a single word.

”I will appreciate it if you won't bother my fiance… I hope this will be the last time you did this or you will not like what I will do next. Move on and look for another woman.”

Mouth agape Luo stared at Noah in disbelief…

That was the second time she heard the word 'fiance' for her from his mouth. It sounded like music to her ears but somehow she felt something was off.

”Since when did I become your fiance?” She unconsciously mumbled with knitted brows.

”Since today,” Noah plainly answered and rendered her more speechless.

'Today? Me? Noah's fiance? For real? When did I agree to it? No! When did he even ask me to be his fiance for me to agree?'

Those thoughts were all over her that she didn't even notice they had already arrived at Noah's place. The irony of it was that she was not able to even say such a word as neither she wanted Noah to quit this thought nor did she know how she would react if he actually asked her the same!

She came back to senses when Noah opened her door and said, ”We're here…”

Luo was still quieter than her usual self because she was thinking whether to confess to Noah but she felt the momentum at the moment was bad. She somehow did not want to look desperate.

She then decided that it would be best that she let Noah talk and explain his side of the story first.

She followed Noah but she stopped at the living area when her mobile phone rang.

Seeing it was Daryl calling her again, she quickly answered the call and explained, ”Sorry about what happened tonight Daryl. I know you're fl.u.s.tered. I will explain everything to you tomorrow.”

Then she immediately ended the call. She saw a lot of unread messages from him as well.

”Stop that…” she heard Noah's demanding tone in front of her. She was about to type a message to placate Daryl because she was worried what he might be thinking of her at that time.

She had never been close to any other male friend like she had been to Daryl so she was very concerned and it was clearly visible on her face.

Luo met Noah's piercing gaze with knitted brows. She raised her eyebrows and irritatingly muttered, ”Stop dictating me about what to do and what not!”

Noah knew he was acting irrational but he could not help it. He was unable to bear any kind of interaction of Luo with that man Daryl.

He knew Luo and Daryl were close friends and so he was more afraid if the one way love of Daryl was contagious and Luo got affected by his feelings! He better mark his territory before anything bad happened.

He moved closer to Luo and grunted, ”I don't like my woman entertaining any other men…”
