All Chapters of Can You Lend Me a Kiss?: Chapter 131 - Chapter 139

After giving his speech, Kenny returned to his table, where some of the top business leaders and guests were still seated. He continued shaking hands with a few people, shared a few smiles, and engaged in small business conversations. All this time, his face looked calm, but his eyes kept scanning the room now and then, always landing on Natasha. He didn't want to admit how much he had missed her presence, and it felt so good seeing her around, even if she wasn't close to him.In the far corner of the room, Linda sat in a chair in a corner with a glass of wine in her hand. Her eyes burned with jealousy and anger every time she looked at Natasha. She cursed as she saw how everyone was laughing and talking around her. She called a waiter who was passing by and whispered something into his ear. The waiter nodded quickly after listening to her instructions. She then took something from her bag and squeezed it into the waiter's hand. Linda then leaned back in her seat with a smile, pre

Kenny went silent, he didn’t ask any more questions after she said those painful words. He kept his eyes on the road, his hands firm on the steering wheel. Deep inside his heart, he felt a mix of emotions. He wanted to ask more, to know what was going on in her life, who Jasper really was, and if she still thought of him, but he held himself back, he didn’t want to push her too far. In the front passenger seat, Natasha shifted in her seat slightly. Her fingers played with the edge of the blanket he had given her. She was quiet, but her mind was full of guilt. She thought that maybe she had been too harsh with her words. After all, he had saved her. He didn’t have to, but he did it, and instead of her thanking him, she said mean words to him. She sighed, still wondering if he was angry now or just hurt. She turned her head slowly and threw a side glance at him, just to see how he was reacting. But the moment her eyes landed on him, she froze. He was already looking at her.Their e

After getting home, Kenny opened the front door of his house and walked in slowly. The living room lights were still on, and Sophia was there on the couch, seated upright, her legs crossed, staring at the TV. She looked like the owner of the house, and nothing bothered her at all. Kenny didn’t say a word or look in her direction. He removed his shoes near the door and walked past her. Sophia turned her head slightly to look at him, but she didn’t speak. She just watched him walk up the stairs and disappear. Kenny entered his room, closed the door, and leaned against it for a second. He let out a long, tired breath, then walked to the wardrobe, took off his formal clothes, and changed into a plain white t-shirt and a pair of soft grey sweatpants. He sat on the couch beside the bed, elbows on his knees, and his hands rubbing his face slowly. Natafa's sweet face was still fresh in his mind. He imagined how sweet it would be if she were the one waiting for him in the living room ins

The following morning, Kenny woke up early and left the house without saying much to anyone. He drove straight to his grandfather’s house. As soon as he entered the gate, a smile formed on his face. That place always gave him peace the warmth, and family.The old man was seated outside on his usual rattan chair under the big tree in the compound, sipping his tea while enjoying the slight breeze. The moment he saw Kenny walking out of his car, he stood up slowly with a big smile on his face.“There you are, I was just about to call you!” the old man said.Kenny walked up to him and hugged him tightly. “I missed you, grandpa,” he said.“I missed you, too, boy,” the old man said, patting his back. “The dark marks are fading away really quickly, and you have added some weight,” he joked, making Kenny laugh.They both sat down under the tree.“So, how are things going? How is everything at home?” the old man said, settling into his chair, Kenny sighed. “It’s okay, grandpa, maybe complicat
