Chapter 1191
Felicity covered her ears as her face turned red. She stammered, "No, that's not what I meant! I wasn't thinking
about anything like that at all. I just think that you're a good person, and I want to be your buddy."
Vermont's smile faded a little. "Don't go telling anyone else about this. You're my girlfriend now."
Felicity paused and felt like his tone did not sound quite right when he said that as if he was angry. Then, she asked
softly, "Are you okay?"
Vermont's expression turned cold. "Yeah, it's just that my wound is hurting."
Felicity was taken aback again. "Why is it hurting again?
Didn't you say it was almost healed when we returned to my hometown?"
Vermont was still mad about her calling him a buddy, so he replied without holding back, "Yeah, it was. But your

Felicity became worried and said softly, "Why didn't you say anything earlier? Does it hurt a lot? Is it serious?"
Vermont's mood improved after seeing how concerned and anxious she was. He suddenly hugged her and said,
"Let me lean on you for a while. It hurts to stand."
Felicity wanted to push him away but changed her mind after hearing what he said. She stood there obediently
without resisting. She even placed her hand around his waist and asked, "Is it hurting here?"
Vermont closed his eyes and savored the scent of her hair." Mmm," he murmured.
Felicity felt tickled by his breath, and she could not help but squirm her shoulder a little. Vermont thought she was
trying to escape, so he held her tighter. Felicity's entire face was pressed against his chest, and she could hear his
heart's steady and powerful thumping.
It sounded a little fast.
Suddenly, Vermont let go and gazed at her. Felicity pursed her lips and asked, "What's wrong?"
"Why is your heart pounding so loudly?" he asked.
Felicity froze.
She immediately put her hand on her chest before realizing how awkward it made her look. Then, she gritted her
teeth and said, "It was your own heartbeat!"
Vermont leaned closer to her, and she subconsciously stepped back, almost bumping into a waiter passing by.
Fortunately, Vermont pulled her back into his embrace.
"It was yours."
Vermont wrapped his arm around her waist and said in a serious tone. "I could hear it by just standing beside you.
Why are you so nervous?"
"I-I-I-L. I'm not!" Felicity pushed him away. "This is ridiculous! If

Felicity curled her fingers, looking very uncomfortable.
Vermont lifted the edge of his mouth. "You're feeling nervous because I hugged you, right? You've never been
hugged by a hug like this before, have you?"
Felicity's face turned extremely red as she said in annoyance, "Nonsense! Countless guys have hugged me. It's just
my arrhythmia. I'm not nervous! Not at all!"
With that, she pushed Vermont away and hurriedly fled the scene. He stood there and watched her walk away as a
faint smile appeared on his face.
'So, she's afraid of physical contact...'
The wedding ceremony officially began at eight o'clock in the evening.
Although it was Albert's second marriage, he made sure that the setup was grand and magnificent for his current
wife, who used to be his mistress.
