Lily had not expected him to kiss her so suddenly, and she could only stare at him with her eyes wide
open. Could he please give her a heads–up next time? Alexander did it in the heat of the moment, but
after coming in contact with her lips, he knew he wanted more. He deepened the kiss, and it lasted
longer than they expected. Lily gasped for air when they pulled away while leaning against his
shoulder. This made Alexander laugh lightly.
“You need to learn how to breathe,” he said, smiling while his hands caressed her back.
Lily was such a silly girl. She would stop breathing whenever they kissed. Alexander was pleasantly
surprised to learn this, as it meant she had little experience kissing. Nathaniel was an id*ot. How could
he not appreciate such a gem when he had her? It made Alexander dislike the man, maybe just a little
less now.
Lily was still busy recovering, getting as much oxygen back into her lungs as she could. When she
heard what Alexander said, she choked again.
“You took all of my air. How could I breathe? Why don‘t you give me some breathing space instead?”
Lily placed her hands on her chest.
Her heart was beating furiously. It felt like it was about to jump out of her chest. Alexander gave her a
gentle smile.
“You‘re saying it‘s my fault now? Why don‘t we try again?” He started to lean forward. Lily drew back in
surprise. “No, we don‘t have to!”
She still had difficulty breathing, and if they did it again, she would probably faint. Alexander had only
intended to tease her, but after seeing her reaction, he pretended to drop his smile and said sadly,
“You‘re rejecting me now?”
Lily felt guilty as she observed Alexander‘s handsome face and downcast eyes looking all glum. She
threw up her arms, trying to deny it. “No, that‘s not it. I meant...”
Alexander pressed his lips against hers, kissing her tenderly. It was not a deep kiss, but it made her Belongs to NôvelDrama.Org - All rights reserved.
heart flutter. Lily shyly covered her face with her hands. How was he so sexy?
At that moment, her phone rang. It was a mood–killer, but a welcomed one. Lily needed to calm down
from this intoxicating atmosphere. She quickly reached for her phone but hesitated to answer it when
she saw the caller ID.
“Hall?” Alexander knew who it was just from the look on Lily‘s face.
“Yeah.” She nodded and answered the phone after giving it some thought. “I thought I said...”
Nathaniel, who was on the other end of the line, cut her off. “If I drop the lawsuit, would you agree to
see me?”
“Lily, you know avoiding us wouldn‘t solve the problem. We should all sit down and talk this out,”
Nathaniel paused and added, “One last time!”
