Chapter 2712 - 185: Lunch Date
"It doesn’t mean much." Abraham Redington’s deep blue eyes glanced at her, his voice light, "Just telling others, you are mine."
"You..." Molly Wellington didn’t expect Abraham Redington to be so shameless.
Not only was there not the slightest bit of guilt, but he also brazenly held her hand, refusing to let go.
Molly Wellington’s almond-shaped eyes showed a hint of anger, "You... you said we wouldn’t go public! Doing this, you’re breaking your word, and I can terminate our relationship anytime."
"You remembered wrong, I only promised not to tell others about our relationship." Abraham Redington’s ocean-deep eyes fixed on her face, watching the woman leaning against the corner of the elevator, his gaze growing deeper.
"Now, it doesn’t count as breaking a promise... Molly, I haven’t ’told’ others about our relationship, so it doesn’t violate our agreement."
Abraham intentionally emphasized the word ’told,’ clearly exploiting a loophole in the language.
Yes, he indeed didn’t say or announce their relationship just now.
But he held her hand and walked past their colleagues in the company, what difference does that make from directly publicizing their relationship!
"Be good, you’re my girlfriend now, don’t let irrelevant people affect our feelings. You must be hungry, let me take you for lunch..."
Abraham Redington reached out his right hand to ruffle her hair, then cradled her blush with his right hand as he lowered it gently.
With his left arm against the elevator wall, his long fingers lifted Molly Wellington’s chin, and with this posture, Abraham bent down, his thin lips softly pressing against her tender lips.
It wasn’t a deep kiss, just a gentle and brief touch.
He trapped her in this small space, performing the most ordinary intimate act between couples.
Perhaps it was because she wasn’t used to Abraham Redington’s closeness, but Molly Wellington subconsciously turned her head sideways to avoid when his cool lips just touched hers.
But Abraham’s actions, though seemingly gentle, carried an undeniable dominance.
The strength on her pointed chin slightly increased, blue eyes fixed on her, "Molly, it’s normal for boyfriends and girlfriends to do this... it means affection."
Abraham’s voice was magnetically low and rich, with a faint trace of allure amidst its coolness.
Molly Wellington used to enjoy listening to this kind of voice, each word easily plucking at her heartstrings.
And now, the voice was still pleasant, but it brought a sense of unease.
Her body would instinctively tense up, her eyes carrying a wary look.
Her heart, filled with a sense of precaution.
Although Molly Wellington agreed to be with Abraham Redington, the vigilance in both her body and mind never relaxed.
Once bitten by a snake, she would be afraid of even a piece of rope for ten years.
This might be the lingering effect of giving her all without reservation in the past and being deeply hurt.
Luckily, Abraham Redington is no longer as egotistical and aloof as he once was.
He easily sensed Molly Wellington’s body’s instinctive rejection, her tension, and stiffness.
The man continued kissing her, his thin lips just resting on her soft lips, while his slightly rough fingertips gently caressed her cheek, as if protecting a rare and precious gem.
They kissed for a long while, but Abraham never forcefully pried her lips open, and his tongue did not venture even a little into her honeyed lips.
Rather than a kiss, it might be better described as Abraham’s gentle comforting.
It wasn’t until the elevator reached the first floor, with a ’ding’ sound reminding them, that Abraham slowly released the softly kissed woman.
Molly Wellington leaned against the elevator wall, her almond-shaped eyes bright and clear, her cheeks visibly flushed.
In this state, she appeared less like the efficient and aloof person at work, but more like the tender and charming girl of her youth.
In a blink, it was as if Abraham saw the frightened little doormat who used to show weakness when he bullied her.
"Come on, let me take you to something delicious..." Abraham held Molly’s hand, confidently leading her out of the elevator.
In the gaze of the employees coming and going on the first floor, they casually walked out of the building.
