Chapter 56
He suddenly leaned in close.
“How did you… um…”
I hadn’t finished speaking when he sealed my lips with a deep kiss.
This kiss was not as wild as before.
This time, he kissed gently, as if he was kissing his most beloved
person.
My heart was pounding, and my tense body gradually softened under his gentle kiss.
His breathing became heavier, and his deep black eyes shimmered with intense desire.
Suddenly, his phone, which was placed on the low table, rang, but he seemed to not hear it.
But I instantly became sober.
Because I saw the words “Kimberly” jumping on his phone screen.
The person he liked was Kimberly.
How could I lose myself in his fleeting tenderness?
‘I held his hand resting on my chest and shook my head at him.
The desire in his eyes faded a bit, and his voice became hoarse: “Don’t
Want to?”
I pursed my lips and said, “My feet hurt.”
He glanced at my swollen ankle, lowered his gaze, and after a while, he straightened up and said lightly, “Rest early.”
After saying that, he took his phone and went out.
I stared at the empty doorway, feeling extremely agitated.
Reynaldo didn’t come back in after he went out, and the cars in the yard didn’t drive away either. It is likely that he is in the study.
It’s really strange, he didn’t even go to accompany Kimberly.
I waved away all the jumbled thoughts in my head and continued reading the documents that the CEO had given me.
The project materials were done in great detail and it didn’t seem too difficult to read.
I don’t know how long I had been watching, but in the end, I leaned back in the chair and fell asleep in a daze.
I woke up again, startled by a burning gaze.
I groggily opened my eyes and saw Reynaldo standing beside me in his robe, holding the project documents in his hand.
I was startled and suddenly stood up to snatch back the document.
After all, Reynaldo also dabbled in the media industry, and his company was essentially a rival to our Clicks Media. Therefore, it would not be good for him to see the project materials in our company.
Seeing how nervous I was about that document. Reynaldo coldly snorted, “Don’t worry, I haven’t looked at it yet, I just picked it up for you.”
“Oh, oh, thank you.”
I rolled up the documents and didn’t dare to look at him, but I could feel the coldness emanating from him.
Fortunately, he didn’t say anything else and just went to bed.
I breathed a sigh of relief, stuffed the documents into my bag, and then picked up my fully charged phone to turn it on and check.
As the phone turned on, countless missed calls popped up.
Clicking on it, all the names were exclusively Reynaldo’s.
I instantly widened my eyes, my heart was shocked.
No wonder 20% of my battery mysteriously disappeared, turns out he almost blew up my phone.
But why did he call me so many times?
Do you have something urgent to ask me?
But if there is something urgent to ask me, when I come back, he will ask.
However, apart from asking me why I didn’t answer his call, he didn’t ask any other questions at all.
Or is it…
He was worried about me all afternoon, so he kept calling me non–stop.
I suddenly felt a bit complicated.
I turned around and looked at the bed.
I saw him lying motionless on the side of the bed, not knowing whether he was asleep or not.
I took my phone and bounced over there, hesitated for a while, and shouted at him, “Reynaldo…”
“I was tired and went to sleep.”
Reynaldo didn’t even look back and said a sentence in a very indifferent tone.
I pursed my lips and looked at the missed call on my phone, suddenly laughing at myself mockingly.
Forget it, what difference does it make to ask?
His moonlight is Kimberly, it’s just revenge on me, all of this he admitted with his own mouth, what am I still fantasizing about.
I lay on the bed, glanced at his back, and then reached out to turn off the light.
In the darkness, it was so quiet that only his breathing could be heard.
He was so close, but I couldn’t feel his warmth.
I really wanted to hug him from behind and lean against his shoulder, feeling at case.
But I knew I didn’t have the qualification.
I sighed silently and turned to look at the window’s mottled moonlight.
That night, lying beside him, I actually couldn’t fall asleep.
The next day. I was awakened by the alarm clock.
