Female Novel
Chapter 108
Like a guide, Sean took Angeline's hand and placed it on his shoulder. Just as she was about towithdraw her hand, her lips were pried open by his mouth.
Taken aback, she instantly grabbed his broad shoulders, feeling almost paralyzed.
He held the back of her head and deepened the kiss, forcefully taking her breath and occupying hermouth. Gradually, he began to kiss her without restraint.
Her strength seemed to be taken away by him, her whole body turning soft. She trembleduncontrollably as she tried to clutch onto him. Unable to get a hold of his shoulder, her hand slippeddown to his arm instead.
The sound of their hastened kisses echoed, making her blush.
Suddenly, Sean's phone rang in the quiet and dark living room, interrupting the intimacy in the air.His lips parted from Angeline's, and he breathed heavily.
The call had come at the wrong time. He couldn't help but feel annoyed. But if it weren't for theringing, he might not have been able to control himself from devouring her.
She tried to get up from his lap, her heart pounding wildly, but he held her down and said, "It's toodark. Be careful not to bump into anything."
While supporting her, he reached for his phone and saw that the call was from Taylor.
Controlling his breath, he answered, "Speak…"
Taylor reported, "Mr. Lawson, there's been an explosion at the power plant in the southern suburbs.The entire power system there is down, and it's not clear when power will be restored.
"There are fully charged emergency lights in the utility room on the left side as you enter yourapartment, second shelf from the top."
"Got it."
Hanging up the phone, Sean said to Angeline, "There's been an explosion at the power plant in thesouthern suburbs. The whole area is experiencing a blackout now.
"You'll have to use the stairs all the way from the top floor if you want to go back to the dormitory,and there are no street lights on the way back. Listen to me and stay here tonight."
With that, he casually threw the phone aside and carried her to the bedroom.
"You… let me down. I'll walk by myself," she said nervously while grabbing onto the collar of hisshirt.
Sean turned a deaf ear and carried her into the master bedroom before placing her gently on thebed.
"Rest well here tonight, and I'll take you to school early tomorrow morning," he said as he openedthe music box that was charging on the bedside table.
The rotating starry sky projection illuminated the entire room. As she looked up, she noticed hishandsome profile.
He straightened up and instructed, "Don't move from here. I'll go get the emergency lights."
She nodded obediently.
Watching him leave the bedroom, she gently touched her lips, still feeling the intense kiss fromearlier. Her cheeks burned with embarrassment.
She didn't expect Sean, who appeared mature and composed on the outside, to have such an out-of-control moment.
Angeline wondered if it was his way of showing affection, by unabashedly expressing his love with apassionate kiss.
That night, she didn't sleep well. Perhaps it was because Sean was in the next room. So, she wokeup late the next day.
He left her a note saying that he had already left for Krontos.
After breakfast, she packed up and returned to school.
