Chapter 129

Chapte It seemed as if God didn’t heed her pleas “Boom!” The thunderous sounds from outside the window came in waves, causing Sabrina to drop her paintbrush and hide under the covers “Damn it, stop with the thunder, she mumbled, covering her ears tightly.

Meanwhile, at the local pub.

Carter, drunk as a skunk, stumbled out into the pouring rain and the booming thunder. He had to get home Jack drove him to Carter’s mansion and was going to leave “Are you okay, president?‘ Jack asked, feeling worried.

Tm fine. Go home”

Carter drunkenly pushed open the mansion door Not seeing Sabrina, he assumed she was out drinking with some other men.

“Darn it‘ Do I mean nothing to her? Sabrina? Sabrina!” he yelled loudly Sabrina, who had been huddled under her covers, heard his call and immediately opened her bedroom door, only to see the man staggering down the hallway toward her “Why didn’t you answer?” Before he could finish his sentence, Carter lost his footing and fell onto Sabrina. His weight caused both of them to tumble onto the hallway floor. The stench of alcohol from Carter was overwhelming, making Sabrina feel nauseous. She tried to push him off, but he didn’t budge He had fallen asleep. What a drunk jerk!

“Hey, wake up. This is the floor, not a bed” She began to lightly slap his face. Sabrina was desperate.

She forcefully pushed the man on top of her, wishing she could kick him awake.

“Um Sabrina Carter felt the softness under him moving, and muttered her name unclearly. Sabrina’s heartbeat missed a half beat With a lot of effort, Sabrina managed to free herself from under him, leaving Carter sprawled out on the floor.

Sabrina had to suppress a laugh. Carter looked ridiculous in his drunken state. What should she do now? Should she take him to his room or just leave him here? Should she fetch him a blanket?

In the end, she concluded leaving him in the hallway would be inhumane. If he woke up and found himself in the hallway, he’d surely complain to her grandfather, and her grandfather would be furious.

Why did he have to drink so much?

Sabrina carefully draped his arm around her neck and slowly got up. Using all her strength, she managed to move the nearly six–foot–tall muscular man to his bedroom it was a feat no one would believe she could pull off, but she did “Boom!” Another thunderclap sounded outside.

“Ah!” Sabrina screamed in fright, dropping Carter onto the bed The pain woke Carter up “No more thunder, please Sabrina whimpered, hiding under the covers and hugging her knees.

So she was afraid of thunder Carter, now partially awake, saw her trembling under the covers and couldn’t help but smile A while later “Crash”

What was that? This crisp sound definitely came from inside, not outside. Carter woke up fully and started looking for the source of the sound.

Sabrina had hit her head on the bedside table. It was a hard hit, and she was now sitting on the floor, clutching her head.

“Sabrina? Sabrina? Carter called out No response Carter panicked and hurried to check on her Sabrina slowly collapsed into his arms, unconscious The fear, the stress, and the sudden blow to her head combined to make her faint.

Carter was now fully sober He quickly picked her up and placed her on his bed. The lightning illuminated her pale face. “Hush, don’t be scared, I’m here,” he said, holding her But she kept her eyes tightly shut. He held her close, his lips meeting her dry ones in a tender kiss, the taste of alcohol still lingering-

He really loved kissing her. Her lips tasted so sweet, he couldn’t stop He licked his lips, savoring the sweetness, and fell asleep holding her.

The next morning, the rain had stopped and the sunlight peeked through the curtain, hitting Sabrina’s eyelids. “Ah, my head hurts,‘ she mumbled, slowly opening her eyes Suddenly, she saw a handsome face right in front of her “Ah!” She screamed, waking Carter Their eyes met “Why are you in my… No, why am I in your bed?” Sabrina exclaimed. She remembered being in her own bed last night.

“I was about to ask you the same thing. Did you sneak into my bed because you’re infatuated with me?” Carter teased, with a smirk on his face.

“But it’s okay, we’re engaged, so sharing a bed is normal it’s what our grandparents want he continued, his eyes burning with desire.

Sabrina punched his chest, her cheeks burning hot “No one has ever spoken to me like this before,” Carter laughed, pulling Sabrina back into his arms and rolling on top of her. “You’re my fiancée. There’s nothing wrong with this.”

Carter’s warm breath brushed against Sabrina’s face, making her blush. “You”

“Hmm? Do you want to argue? Didn’t you sneak into my bed last night? I don’t mind if you want to do it openly. Okay?”

Sabrina had never been so embarrassed in her life. I didn’t… Before she could finish her sentence, Carter’s lips met hers in a deep, passionate kiss.

He was consumed by her, not wanting to let go.

Sabrina felt dizzy, the kiss was so intense, she could hardly breathe Carter, sensing her discomfort, reluctantly let her go. Sabrina gulped down mouthfuls of fresh air, her cheeks flushed a rosy hue.

“So how was it? Huh? Did you enjoy it?” Carter’s voice was hoarse, his face filled with amusement as he watched Sabrina. He found his fiancee incredibly entertaining “You’re such a jerk Sabrina, regaining her senses, glared at him. She forcefully pushed the man off her and bolted from the room, her face burning with embarrassment. He had kissed her again “My little bunny hehe. You’ll get used to me.” Carter’s smile was sweet and charming. He had made up his mind to stop hiding. He wanted to win her over and have her surrender to him Melfort After a week of recuperation, Natalia was back on her feet. Her daily antics with Lexi had improved her mood significantly, but the thought of Magnus still caused her heart to ache. All this time, he had not visited her once. Not even a single call.
