Chapter 19 The Strongest Love Rival (2/2)

Mandy smiled with relief. She was just thinking too much. Essie had always been in a daze since she was a child. She was not a very smart person. In fact, if she was trafficked, she would probably help the kidnapper.

She did not know how to lie at all.

It was already evening when Zac came back. Essie had just finished having barbecue with her friends and had also just arrived home. She was just lying on the sofa while comfortably watching some TV.

Zac took a cold shower and sat beside her. His trousers were slightly open, and Essie couldn't stop herself from peeping at him. She took a deep breath and her nose was filled with the light fragrance of his body wash and his seductive hormones.

All of a sudden, her face turned hot and her heartbeat got faster.

'Oh my God! Are you out of your mind?' she thought to herself.

She grabbed the juice on the table and took another deep breath to get herself back to normal.

Then, at that moment, a hand reached out to her and gently touched her face. ”What's wrong? Why is your face so red?”

Essie stopped breathing for a second.

'He has eyes as sharp as an eagle's, and nothing can get past him!' Essie thought.

”I had barbecue this afternoon. Maybe I am sick,” she stuttered.

”Do you need my help?” He put his hand on the back of the sofa and continued getting closer to her. Frightened, she hurriedly moved to the other side of the sofa. Then, she took his hand and said, ”Don't even think about it!”

”What did I think?” His dark eyes flickered in the light with a bewitching look.

”Nothing but filthy thoughts.” Essie looked away, trying to avoid getting eye-contact with him. With a cold and mischievous smile playing at the corners of his mouth, he slowly stood up from the sofa.

'What are you doing, lecher?' Essie wondered.
