Chapter 199 Finally home (1/2)

When his arm circled around her waist, Lexi immediately turned vigilant. Alas, right after a second, just when she as about to turn and back away from the man behind her, Ethan Lu's familiar citrusy scent with an aquatic vibe tickled her nose.

Only Ethan Lu could smell so refreshing like this to her hence, she stopped and let him embraced her from behind. He then rested his chin on her shoulder saying in a low note, ”Here…”

”... finally home.” He added.

Upon hearing his last remarks, Lexi chuckled as she tilted her head back and leaned it to the side of his head that was on her shoulder. Just when she opened her mouth, Lexi abruptly closed it upon hearing a harsh noise of clothes shaking off in the air and the next moment, Lexi's front was covered by a blazer suit.

”My home's windows and doors were all open— must cover it.” Unlike his gentle voice earlier, Ethan Lu's face had this distress expression plastered across his face. God knows how shocked he was as he got a closer look at Lexi's fine figure and how she confidently carried her dress.

”Love, I was kidding when I said to be confident with your body.” Still had his eyes mildly dilated and a slightly pale complexion, Ethan Lu profusely shook his head.

In his mind, Lexi had been partying since earlier, then that only meant that tons of eyes had glued their gazes on her— unacceptable! Although Lexi sent him photos earlier, Ethan Lu overlooked her seductive attire as he was struggling internally after knowing Morris Liu's side of the story. But now, he was utterly flabbergasted upon a closer look at her.

”Hahaha!” This time, Lexi could no longer suppress her laughter as she slowly turned around to see the horrified expression on his dashing yet exhausted profile. Slightly thrusting her chin upward, Lexi raised her brows as a mischievous grin formed on the side of her lips.
