Chapter 355 - Kiss Her More Often (2/2)

As she imagined Emerson waiting for her at the airport, rubbing his stomach in hunger as he worried about her, her heart broke. She suddenly missed him and wanted to hug him in her arms.

The 2-hour flight felt like forever but it soon passed and Avaleigh arrived back in Hong Kong. As soon as she stepped out of the airport she saw a familiar man standing near a car waiting for her. Without a second thought, she ran up to him and wrapped her arms around his body.

Emerson stumbled back a little in surprise. ”Is everything OK?” he asked worriedly.

”I'm sorry...” Avaleigh confessed.

Emerson glanced down at the woman in his arms and asked with confusion, ”Why are you sorry?”

Avaleigh moved away a little and looked into Emerson's eyes shyly, ”When I heard that you were having dinner with Marissa, I was jealous, so I rushed back. But, I didn't know that I had misunderstood and I didn't expect you to come here without even finishing your food...”

”I know it's childish and impulsive, but I couldn't help myself...I...”

Emerson watched as Avaleigh babbled with embarrassment, but he was not annoyed. Instead, it made him happy. For the first time in his life, he could tell that the woman he liked also liked him too.

Avaleigh had a mask on to hide her identity, so Emerson could only see her eyes, but even her eyes were enough to make his heart race as he stared into them.

So, before Avaleigh finished speaking, he leaned forward, lifted her mask up slightly, and covered her mouth with his. He didn't mind that she was jealous, nor did he mind that she had acted impulsively. Back when he liked Halia, he had done much more impulsive and embarrassing things. It was nice to finally be on the receiving end.

Avaleigh felt the man's soft lips against hers and she immediately froze. She thought he would be upset or angry at her for making him worry and for making him rush to the airport, but that didn't seem to be the case. A sense of relief immediately swept through Avaleigh's body and she closed her eyes as she returned the man's kiss.

Emerson pulled the delicate woman closer to his body as he leaned back against his car. He was hungry and Avaleigh's lips were so delicious he did not want to part with them. It had been a while since their first proper kiss, but her lips were just as sweet as he remembered them to be. From now on, he really had to kiss her more often.

But, just as he was getting immersed in the kiss, he heard someone clear their voice and say awkwardly, ”Ahem, excuse me, sir, but this is a 5-minute pickup area...”

Avaleigh immediately pulled away from Emerson's lips and covered her mouth back up with her mask as she giggled shyly into Emerson's shoulder. Emerson hugged her and chuckled. Neither of them could believe that they had lost control like that. ”Sorry, we'll get going right away,” he apologized to the airport staff.
