Chapter 158

Adira’s POV

I was in charge of washing the dishes after our dinner. Standing in front of the sink, I felt deja vu.

The first time we ate dinner together, I also washed the dishes. Then an accident happened. Chadwick came rushing to me and we…

‘We kissed.’

Recalling that moment, I bit my lower lip until I felt the pain in my flesh. I subconsciously looked up to see if there’s any bottle, glass or cup that would fall. Fortunately, there’s none.

‘That means there will be no reason for us to remake the past.’

I shook my head and continued washing the dishes. Until I remembered the thing he said to me before and I stopped again.

[“I am seducing you, Adira.”]

Somehow, I can’t get that out of my mind as if it is a broken plaque that keeps on replaying again and again inside my head.

He really looked serious when he said that he will seduce me. Does it mean that he’s planning to do something now?

Although we drank a bit of wine, I don’t think that’s enough to make him drunk, just like the night when he signed the divorce paper.

I am sure, that won’t…

“Hey.”

All of a sudden, someone is standing behind my back. I could feel his chest firmly pressing on my back, it was warm, like a cup of coffee.

“Do you need some help?” he whispered in my ear.

His warm breath brushed on my nape, causing some hair of my skin to stand up. This is a natural reaction so there’s no need to be surprised.

I looked at the two hands leaning on the sink, and he’s there beside me, standing as if he’s giving me a warm back hug.

‘What is he doing?’

I guess this is a part of him seducing act that he told me before. Inwardly, I cackled a burst of laughing of amusement. I wanted to see how far this virgin man can go.

“If I say that I need help, will you help me?” I answered, continuing my work.

“...”

I received nothing from him besides his breathing that keeps on ticking my nape. I didn’t want to look around but my curiosity hit its peak and so I did. When I tilted my head to see why he was staying quiet, I saw his face up close.

His straight brows, pointed nose, partly hanged lips and lastly, his eyes. There’s something in his gaze which made the air between us very thick. It’s hot, burning, like how flame blazes and licks the air. He looked at me as if he wanted to touch me, to taste my skin and to caresses every corner of my body.

“Of course. I will help you with anything,” he whispered in throaty voice, rough like rock rubbing on another rock.

Every time he speaks, he Adam’s apple vibrated. It is so sexy to watch.

I admit that he has the ability to wake up a maiden’s sensuality.

My eyes went back to the plate in my hand. I grabbed the sponge and wiped the greased on the plate. Then, I said, “The help I need requires your body.”

He went stiff and I could barely hear him breathing.

Chadwick is handsome and sexy. But if he wanted to seduce someone, he had to be bolder. I passed the phase when I was bold enough to seduce even the men with er*ction disability. So, I can tell that this man is still an amateur.

Right now’s situation is an example. I just told him that the help I am seeking requires body but he suddenly went stiff like a robot. Looking back, this innocent guy always had this stunned blushing expression on his face when I was teasing him before.

‘Wait. There were times when he really backed out like a sweet puppy, but I think I forgot for a moment how he kissed me inside the limousine and when we were in the photo-shoot. Didn’t he also had the courage to bite my neck before?’

Suddenly, the stiffened man leaned closer, and I felt his back pressing on my body, there’s no more space between us. Like a ham between bread, I was sandwiched between his body and the sink.

‘Oh my~’

This is what you called: ‘Never underestimate your opponent.’

I underestimated Chadwick because it stuck in my mind that when it comes to seducing, it will be me who must initiate first. People do change.

However, in the field of work, there are beginners, masters, hustlers and professionals. He must be so dedicated to seducing me so he has the courage to act clingy like this. But I know this field better than him.

Playing a smirk on my lips, I turned around and faced him. In an instant, we’re looking at each other in a close gap. Our breaths mingled and our lips were hairs breadth away, the slightest move would be enough to join them together.

The fire in his eyes that I saw before turned big, engulfing a huge house until it turns ash. He peered straight into my eyes as he pinned on the sink, locking me between his arms.

“I need long and delicate fingers,” I whispered.

In no time, his ears turned red.

“I have long fingers,” he replied.

“That’s great,” I responded. “I need those fingers to touch something.”

“What something?”

“Something wet,” I said in husky voice before biting my lower lip and licking the corner of my mouth with my tongue.

His eyes that were looking down on me widened. Next, there was this blunt and explicit gaze, almost tangible.

“You need to hold something wet and soft. Are you okay?” I asked, grinning.

Chadwick gulped while staring at me, before he smirked back with the same intensity as I have.
