Chapter 674
All she felt was a head rush. Then suddenly, he scooped her up and pushed her forcefully against the wall, planting a quick kiss on her lips that left her breathless This intense sensory overload had Comeliaâs nerves on edge. She felt like a fish out of water, gasping for air, with oxygen getting scarcer by the second She didnât know how long passed, but it felt like a century Just when Cornelia thought she was about to suffocate, Marcus finally let her go, âCornelia
He said her name, his voice deep and husky oozing with a confusing kind of sexiness.
Cornelia struggled to breathe. But the space was too small, and the ventilation was busted. This cramped space wasnât enough to supply oxygen for three people.
She regained some composure, looked up at him, âHmm?â
Her lips, swollen from his kisses, a bright red, glittering with moisture, looked like npe cherries that begged to be tasted.
Marcus Adamâs apple bobbed. He swallowed hard, then kissed her again.
âAh, it hurtsâ He was too rough, not mindful of her at all. Her lips were bitten swollen by him. But even so, Cornelia didnât move away. If this could make him less afraid, she was willing to endure the pain.
Unexpectedly. Marcus suddenly let her go, cupping her face, gently brushing her lips, Tm sorry. I was too rough. I try to control myself.â
âItâs okayâ Cornelia tried to control her racing heart, wrapped her arms around his neck. She tiptoed, and initiated a kiss.
She had no experience, just kissing him instinctively. All she thought was if this could make him feel better, then it didnât matter.
Marcus grabbed her waist, swiftly taking over. They kissed deeply, seemingly inseparable
Just then, a sound came from outside. The elevator door opened, and the lights came on.
Cornelia quickly pushed him away, frantically straightening out her clothes. Marcus glanced at her, knowing that she didnât want to expose herself. So he walked out first. Outside, a group of people stood with their heads down, waiting for Marcusâ scolding
But Marcus just gave them a cold look, didnât say a word, and left.
Cornelia quickly caught up with Marcus.
Ben was slow to react, and didnât go with Marcus and Cornelia on the elevator.
They switched to the staff elevator, so there were other people in the elevator. When they entered, everyone greeted them, âGood morning, President Hartley Good morning. Ms. Stewart.â
Marcus stood at the front, ignoring everyone, but someone noticed the blood on her lips
Comelia returned the greeting with a smile, âGood morning!â
A girl pointed at Corneliaâs lips and asked, âMs Stewart, what happened to your lips?â
Even though she couldnât see, the burning pain told Cornelia that her lips must have been bitten by Marcus.
She smiled, calmly making up an excuse, âI think I might have been bitten by a mosquito last night.â
