Chapter 330 - 327: Mind In Chaos I (1/2)

Arriving in the drawing room, Geoffrey took a sit on the three-seater sofa while Serena instructed a servant to get the first aid kit. Then the doors were closed leaving just the two of them inside.

Geoffrey seeing Serena still standing by the door as if waiting for the servant to arrive back, called her attention. ”Come sit down.”

Serena faced him and felt a bit awkward in her heart. What to do?

Geoffrey just smiled and patted the space next to him. ”I won't bite.” He joked.

Feeling that it's a bit hypocritical of her to act all shy, she just braced herself and sat next to him.

Geoffrey removed his gloves and then took Serena's hand to remove hers too.

”What are you doing?” Serena asked. A part of her afraid, while another part thrilled.

Geoffrey shook his head and intertwined their fingers. ”I just wanted to hold your hand.” He shared.

Serena willed herself to calm down. She felt him rubbing the top of her hand with his thumb.

”So… I did not know that you have that side to you…” Geoffrey began as he leaned closer to her.

Serena understood what he was pertaining to. Her heart thumped. She turned away from him. He was too close. ”I… I was a bit confused. Forgive me… I'm not…” as she tried to give an excuse, Geoffrey used his hand to turn her face towards him.

Geoffrey saw her acting all innocent trying to come up with an excuse but not denying what she did. He wanted to smirk. Serena was now like a butterfly who got caught on his web. He knew that because of what happened earlier, the dynamics of their relationship has changed. She would not reject his advances, nor would she stop him from taking some liberties for she did act like a wanton whore earlier. She was the one who first gave him the cue that she wanted them herself. To act otherwise would indicate that she was waiting for another man. Her lips that always spouted lies were tempting him, so he angled his face to kiss her.

Serena used her hand to block his lips, ”Geoffrey, please, the servant will be back soon…” she said, and true to her words, someone knocked on the door.

Geoffrey licked her palm before seating upright again.

The servant placed the first aid kit, a basin of warm water, and a hand towel on the coffee table then left the drawing room.

A bit nervous, Serena washed her hands first. Then, she picked a gauze pad, placed some alcohol on it, and started dabbing it on Geoffrey's wound.

Geoffrey hissed. So much for gentle touch.

”Does it hurt?” Serena asked.

”A little.” Geoffrey replied.
