Chapter 1117 A Kiss in the Room
Warm lips pressed against hers as if they also smoothed her restless heart.
Evelyn was unprepared. Her mouth was slightly agape in surprise, perfectly accommodating his intrusion, offering
him an opportunity to act as he pleased.
They were having a serious conversation, so why did he suddenly kiss her?
Evelyn's hands were braced against the man's chest. Even through the thin layer of his clothing, she could feel the
heat from his skin, "Ouch. Huston, no!"
Her feeble resistance didn't phase him at all. It was as if a flame was burning inside him that only grew more
intense upon touching her, steering everything into a direction beyond control.
His attractive hands were slowly caressing her body, kindling her desires with each move of his lips and tongue.

tangibly.
His calm restraint, and his extreme self-control, made her mistakenly think of him as a gentleman. But when
actually faced with the woman they love, no one could truly resist; the so-called clear- bullheadedness was only due
to insufficient temptation.
Overwhelmed by a passionate kiss, Evelyn quickly conceded defeat. The hands that were initially pushing him away,
now clung onto him tightly, bunching his neat shirt into several deep creases.
In her daze, she didn't realize when he had moved them both onto the big bed behind them. His robust figure
blocked the light above her, while her clothes were haphazardly torn open. His cool hand slipped in, gliding over her
smooth waist and moving further down...
It was this move that startled Evelyn awake.
Like a cat whose tail had been stepped on, she immediately opened her eyes and pushed him away with all her
might.
"No!"
Perhaps it was her desperate cry that froze Huston. His thick brows knitted together, the desire in his shadowy
expression was not lost on her. But she couldn't cross that mental barrier.
She hadn't forgotten.
She hadn't forgotten the ugly scars marring her back.
Call her timid or weak, she hadn't yet fully prepared herself to reveal her most unsightly side to him.
She said nothing, just stared at him with red-rimmed eyes. Huston didn't ask, but he understood her struggle and
pain.
"You know I don't mind," Huston murmured in a low voice, soothing her like a gentle melody.

But...
"You may not mind, but I do," seeing his attractive lips move slightly, Evelyn quickly said, "It's not because I'm being
awkward. Every girl wants to present her best self to the person she likes. I'm no different. I don't want you to see
those scars. I want you to see me as whole and charming. Though, that may take a while."
In less than a minute, her emotions had swung from ecstasy to despair, then back to hope.
It was not because she didn't want to be close to him, nor was it awkwardness, but... she wanted to show him her
best side, right?
The desire that had been forcibly halted now seemed to find satisfaction.
After a while, he rolled off her, took a deep breath, and exhaled, looking up at the crystal light above, "I'm easy to
deal with, one sentence and I no longer mind anything."
Indeed, he did not just not mind, he was overjoyed deep down inside.
