Chapter 178 An Unexpected Kiss
There seemed to be an unpredictable atmosphere between them.
After this incident, Freya found that she and Radley worked surprisingly well together. It was not only on the projects
in West Geft but also on deceiving people.
She took out her phone and informed him, “I’ve booked the restaurant. We’ll arrive just in time if we leave
now.”
They had already discussed this before taking action.
Radley suggested that Freya should treat him to dinner after the mission was accomplished.
Since he had done her a huge favor, Freya booked the top floating restaurant in Vroria.
It was a specialty of Vroria.
Connor was in charge of driving. The floating restaurant was quite far away as it was on a river on the city’s north
side. Therefore, it took them an hour to get there, and it was already dark when they arrived.
Feeling bored, Freya casually chatted with Connor on the way there.
Connor smiled and said, “Miss Kaufmann, those 100 kilograms of gold almost broke my back.”
“Why didn’t you let someone else carry it? You’re still young and it would be troublesome if you hurt your back,
Freya replied casually.
Then, Radley turned his head and looked at her.
Taken aback by his actions, Freya looked into the man’s smiling eyes.
“My back is in great condition.”
That left Freya feeling speechless.
Whether his back was fine or not had nothing to do with her.
Freya touched her abdomen and looked away.
The car stopped at an intersection, and Freya lowered the car window to look outside.
“The evening breeze during early fall feels very soothing.”
Just as she lowered the car window, a motorcycle almost brushed against the car
Freya was startled, and the motorcyclist’s hand reached into the car, trying to grab her bag

Since she was wearing her bag, she might even get pulled forward by the force of the person grabbing her bag.
She immediately pulled her body back, but the space inside the car was cramped, and the thief’s hand had almost
reached the edge of her bag.
A hand appeared on Freya’s shoulder at lightning speed and pulled her back.
Freya was pulled into Radley’s embrace, and the thief cursed after realizing he could not get the bag. The
motorcycle was moving very fast.
Radley’s black eyes were filled with anger, and his voice was low and chilling as he ordered, “Connor!”
Connor’s face turned cold and serious. “I’ll call someone and make sure he gets caught.”
Meanwhile, Freya was pressed into Radley’s arms, and she could hear his heartbeat racing.
His heartbeat sounds abnormal, she thought, Is he scared?
The man’s body exuded the scent of agarwood and had a hint of coldness, like the smell of melting ice.
Freya wanted to sit up straight.
“Thank you, but…”
She looked up and met Radley’s deep eyes.
The sky was already dark, and the car’s interior was even darker.
Radley’s silhouette looked hazy but also handsomely sharp. The contrast between the two made Freya suddenly
stop moving.
The hand that was holding her shoulder didn’t let go but tightened slightly.
Freya pursed her lips, and her heartbeat also seemed to beat abnormally.
Outside the car, it was precisely the time the city government had set for the street lights to turn on, so they all
turned on at the same time.
The opened window on Freya’s side allowed the light to instantly penetrate through and bring the man’s face into a
clear view.
Radley’s lips were thin and beautiful but also made him seem unapproachable.
He had a tall, straight nose. Above it was a pair of dark eyes that seemed to contain swirling galaxies.
Looking at him, Freya felt a little dizzy and coughed slightly. “I…”
The next second, the man’s face came even closer.
Following that, she felt a pair of warm lips pressed against hers.
Freya’s mind was a mess. Then, the window and partition gradually rose, courtesy of the driver, who became
invisible in the space.
The temperature inside the car seemed to rise. The space began to turn dim again, but the streetlights made their
surroundings clearer than before.
Freya opened her eyes and met Radley’s gaze.
He was staring at her with dark, possessive eyes filled with determination and passion
Freya trembled slightly and closed her eyes
In the darkness, it felt like poppies were blooming, filling the air with a dreamy but elusive fragrance.
As though she were in a dream, everything in the space made Freya gradually relax her hand that was pressed
against Radley’s chest.
She occasionally felt nervous and exerted some force into her hand, but it was like an itch to the other, which would
result in him deepening the kiss.
Radley held the back of Freya’s head and carefully embraced her waist with one hand.
Apart from those unintentional, electrocuting interactions they previously had, this was their first kiss.
Never had Radley tasted something so good that he forgot about his surroundings.
As long as he had her, he didn’t need anything else.
He was cautious but couldn’t help but deepen the kiss little by little.
During the passionate kiss, he could feel the person in his arms lightly touching and kissing him back, and her every
subtle reaction made him want to capture and possess everything about her.
Beep-
The sound of a long honking broke the dreamlike atmosphere in the car.
Freya returned to her senses, bit her lip, and pushed Radley away.
Then, she sat up straight and took a few deep breaths, trying to calm herself down.
Meanwhile, Radley fell silent for a moment, then turned his head to shoot cold glares at the car behind them.
It was a Hummer, and the driver was impatiently honking the horn.
“Connor, Radley called the other. “Lower the partition.”

Once the partition was lowered, Radley glanced at the traffic lights.
The pedestrian lights were green, which meant the cars had to stop and let the pedestrians pass.
Many pedestrians were currently crossing the street, yet the car behind them kept honking the horn.
When Radley turned to look at Freya, she had already turned her head to the side.
He took a deep breath.
If they continued their actions just now, he had a feeling that he was about to touch her and capture her heart.
However, all of that was ruined by the car behind thera
A head stuck out from the window of the Hummer. The man placed his tattooed arm on the window and pulled out
the cigarette between his lips.
“The car upfrom. What the hell is wrong with you? Get the f*ck out of my way, or I’ll make you f*cking move!”
Connor turned to look at Radley. “Mr. Monaghan.”
The man continued to shout, cursing in the local dialect.
“Why are you pretending to be nice by letting pedestrians pass? You can be f*cking polite all you want but don’t
block my way. Otherwise, I’ll hit you so hard that your car flies into the sky!”
Those trails of curses rendered Freya speechless.
Rarely was there anyone who could curse so perfectly in Vrorian dialect.
Before the car was an old man with a walking stick, he was so embarrassed by the scolding that he tried his best to
move forward quickly.
Connor got out of the car and took off his coat, leaving it in the car.
Then, he stood next to the Hummer and rolled up his sleeves.
Seeing the situation, the man in the Hummer behind them taunted, “You’re as skinny as a pole. What’s the matter?
Trying to pick a fight?”
Connor was not thin. Instead, he had a relatively muscled figure and was over 1.8 meters tall.
Freya watched as Connor rolled up his sleeves and then looked at the old man in front of the car.
Though the other car owners saw that a fight was about to break out, none dared to speak up.
Some watched the excitement and even lowered their windows.
The man with the tattooed arm in the Hummer quickly exited his car and tried to grab Connor’s collar.
“F*ck you! Trying to show off, eh? I’ll beat you until you can’t even recognize your own-
The man couldn’t even finish his threat.
