âWhat do you think?â he asked nonchalantly.
âWell⦠We met on a blind date, but weâre just friends. Even though⦠we did go on dates with marriage as the end goal, we didnât do anything intimateâ¦â Her voice grew quieter under his gaze.
âCome on. Why do I feel guilty?â Lina thought to herself as she bit her lip.
She was single then, so there was nothing wrong with going on a blind date!
Besides, she and Anthony Sherman had never done anything that crossed the line.
âIs that so? Does that mean you have never even held hands with him?â Hadwin Stephensonâs voice lazily rang out in her ears.
âYep,â she answered.
The next moment, he was breathing on her cheek, and that handsome face was magnified before her.
âHadwin, what⦠What are you doing?â she asked in a stammer.
Yeah.â Her face flushed slightly.
His lips were close to her ear while his warm breath sprayed on her ear.
Lina only felt that her ears were getting hotter and hotter. She wanted to raise her hands to cover her hot ears, but he pulled her hands down first. âYou didnât do this either?â
As he finished speaking, his lips touched her ear.
Linaâs face instantly reddened, and she felt her blood surge.
âCome on! Does he know heâs tempting me to do things I shouldnât do in my current condition?â
âDid you do it?â His voice muttered.
âNo⦠No way!â she stammered, trying to put some distance between them.
She was pregnant. She could not get too âexcitedâ.
He seemed to smile with satisfaction. His fingers grabbed her chin, forcing her to look at him. He used his other hand to wrap it around her waist and drew her closer to him.
âLina, since youâre pregnant with my child and want to pester me forever, youâre forbidden from being intimate with other men, got it?â He stared at her with a straight face.
âWell⦠Can I at least shake hands and hug my idols?â She thought it over and bargained.
He frowned slightly. She⦠seemed to have a lot of idols, and she would have new ones almost every year. He could figure out just from the photos of her idols on her phone.
There were probably dozens of them. If she shook hands and hugged each of themâ¦
Hadwin Stephensonâs scalp tingled just from his imagination alone.
âOf course, I promise thereâll be nothing more than handshakes and hugs,â added Lina.
