Chapter 65 - Damn, He Is Good! (1/2)
Was he serious?
Why would a mature man like him be interested in me?
I knew that he was supposed to be my future husband. I knew that it was normal for him to approach me. I also knew that it was possible for me to feel something towards him.
But, even though every possibilities were opened for me, I had something that tied me up to where I thought I belonged to.
Tom.
People might call psychiatrist on me for choosing a ghost over a human.
But, that's where I felt the safest, the most comfortable, and the warmest. Ghost or not, I wanted him.
Deciding to act like a deaf, I took another gulp of the water and asked him the question I've been keeping inside.
”Why am I here?”
”I brought you here.”
His answer was surprisingly calm and on point. On one hand, I froze after hearing his answer.
Just imagine an idol carrying a sleeping girl in his arms, how did his fans react to that? They must be going crazy, right?
Should I carry some pepper sprays in my bag now? Or should I hire some bodyguards? Okay, I admitted the bodyguards part was too much, but I also needed to ensure my safety, right?
On the other hands, I felt very much embarrassed.
”What kind of girl would fall asleep in the open space? What if you drooled?” His tone was reprimanding at first, but soon it laced with teasing.
The corner of his lips was lifted slightly, creating an illusion of seductive smirk. Complemented by the teasing glint in his eyes, I could feel the heat rose to my cheeks, painted my face with a shade of red colour.
Damn, he is good!
My reaction to his words got delayed because he attracted me too much. He might not be a devilish beauty, but he sure had devilish smile and enchanting eyes.
”W-what kind of girl? Obviously my kind of girl! And, for your information, I don't drool!” I almost stuttered from embarrassment.
His smirk grew imminent as he crossed his arms -oh my God, his muscles... I think I almost drool -in front of his chest and leaned back to the back of the chair. I was ogling at his muscular arms when I noticed he was looking at me with his teasing eyes.
Suddenly, I had the urge to slap myself!
