Semua Bab Ms. York's Second Proposal: Bab 431 - Bab 440

"That guy tried to hurt himself just now, and it frightened Lily." After Winston said that, he realized he sounded like he was trying to explain things to Megan. "Okay. You should accompany Ms. Gibson then. We'll leave now." Unbothered, Megan nodded. She still had a smile on her face. What was that reaction? Was she jealous, or did she simply not believe what he said? Winston was frustrated. But before he could say anything, Megan had already dragged Celeste away and walked off. "Mr. Belasco, is Ms. Schultz upset?" Lilian asked Winston with a pitiful look. Her tears had dampened Winston's shirt. When she saw Megan leaving, she acted as if she realized something was wrong and quickly let go of Winston's arms. She looked a little anxious as she lowered her head. Winston was speechless. "Why would she be upset? She seems happy." Why did he never realize that Megan was so sensitive and doubtful back then? "What I mean is… did I bother you and Ms. Schultz when I hugged you j

"Don't be afraid, it's me," the man said in a low voice. The familiar voice instantly calmed Megan down. "Mr. Belasco, why are you here?" Didn't he know that his being here in the dark would scare anyone to death? Megan was frustrated but held onto the doorframe and regained her composure. "I didn't have enough to eat just now." Megan looked at him incredulously. "What's that got to do with me?" "Since you were treating me to dinner today, wouldn't it be your fault if I didn't have enough food?" In the dark, Winston's voice was hoarse and seductive. What an oblivious woman. When a man claimed that he was hungry in the middle of the night, the meaning behind it was clear. Yet, she couldn't catch the message at all. Winston sighed to himself. He then grabbed Megan's hand when she began to speak."You're the one who left halfway through dinner and saved another woman. It has nothing to do with me." Megan was dissatisfied. Why had she never realized how unreasonable this man

He was silent for a moment after Celeste said that. She thought that the signal was bad and was about to hang up. Damon suddenly spoke quietly. "Celeste York, promise me you'll run away if you're ever in danger." "Huh?" Celeste was confused. "Don't even think about protecting or sacrificing yourself for me. Celeste, promise me you'll run away as fast as possible if you're in danger. Promise me you'll prioritize yourself under any circumstances." Damon's tone was serious and firm—there was no doubt in his voice. That was the most romantic thing he had ever said since they met. It was like a stone being thrown into a calm lake, creating ripples on the surface. Damon was never good at sweet talk. He had a cold face, and even his words were icy. The fact that something like that came out of his mouth proved that he was being sincere.The last time someone's words touched her was when she heard the classic line "You jump, I jump" in the movie "Titanic". What did she do to

Lilian was good at putting on an act. She was able to turn everyone into obsessive people who would do anything for her. If Celeste and Megan had not experienced it first-hand, they would have the feeling of wanting to protect her as well. Today, she was wearing a white duffle coat, and her straight hair hung loosely around her shoulders. She wore a pair of sneakers, had no makeup on, and had a backpack slung over her shoulders. She looked like a college student. Even Megan started having doubts. Could it be that they had misunderstood Lilian? Perhaps she was just someone who was insecure and innocent deep down. "Ms. Schultz, I'm sorry for what happened last night. Ruining your dinner with Mr. Belasco..." The moment she entered the office, she spoke up apologetically. "I just came to express my apology." "It's okay, Ms. Gibson. We were almost done eating anyway. It's fine as long as you're okay now." Hearing her friendly words, Megan naturally had to respond to her polite

The kiss happened abruptly, and Winston was being too aggressive. Megan was dumbfounded. The two of them had kissed each other in the past, but it would always happen naturally when they were having passionate moments in bed. This was the first time they suddenly started kissing in the middle of an argument. It was hard to guess what an older man could be thinking. What did Winston mean by this? When their relationship was vague, and they were merely friends with benefits, he never behaved like this. Why was he the one pestering Megan after they parted ways? "Let me go," Megan mumbled as he kissed her lips. She tried to push him away. "No." Not only did Winston not let go, he pushed things further by slowly slipping his tongue into her mouth. He had been missing the taste of her for many days. Winston felt that his heart was beating a little too fast. At first, he just wanted to punish her with his kiss—but to his surprise, the more he kissed her, the more he found hims
