Chapter 428: Cecilia, Let Me Warm You—No Hiding…
The space inside the car was already cramped, and as the tall, lean body of the man suddenly pressed down, Cecilia Vaughn found it a bit difficult to breathe.
"Adrian, what are you doing?"
"What do you think?"
A low, soft laugh spilled from the man’s throat, and that captivating timbre, tinged with a slight huskiness, made it inexplicably sensual.
This was in a private underground garage!
Besides her and Adrian Law, only Wyatt Law had the authority to open the gate, and Wyatt, at this late hour, naturally wouldn’t be here.
Could it be that Adrian Law really wanted to... here...
No, it can’t be...
Cecilia’s heart skipped a beat.
Realizing what the smoldering fire in Adrian’s eyes represented, Cecilia suddenly felt a bit uncomfortable. She abruptly reached out, trying to put a slight distance between herself and the man.
"Adrian, let’s go home... I’m a bit cold..."
Seemingly aware of the girl’s unease, the smile on the man’s lips deepened. Suddenly, he leaned forward again, reducing the gap between them to almost nothing.
"Cecilia, if you’re cold, why avoid me? Hmm, am I not warm enough for you?"
As their eyes met, Cecilia saw in his a dark glint, like a merman leaping out of the deep sea, wondrous yet dangerous.
Adrian deliberately covered Cecilia’s slender hand with his own. In Cecilia’s eyes was reflected the man’s flawless, handsome face, and her heart raced.
"No... let’s just go home..."
The man blinked his large eyes mischievously, his long and elegant phoenix-like eyes appearing irresistibly endearing.
"Cecilia, but you haven’t given me the prize I won yet."
"I will give it to you! But not now!"
Cecilia was almost struck in the heart by Adrian’s wink.
So attractive!
Cecilia smiled awkwardly, knowing what Adrian wanted, but agreeing to him would be too outrageous...
Forgive her for her traditional upbringing; having a flash marriage with him was already unbelievable. Doing something in this underground garage, even if no one else was around but rows of luxury cars, Cecilia just couldn’t get past that mental hurdle.
...
Seeing Cecilia unwilling to give in, Adrian’s eyes suddenly darkened. Taking her by surprise, his handsome face descended, capturing the girl’s lips with pinpoint accuracy.
"Cecilia, are you still cold now?"
The man’s husky voice, like that of a siren, spread through the cramped confines of the sports car, leaving Cecilia’s hands with nowhere to rest.
She could only passively allow Adrian to kiss her lips, unable to stop a soft moan from escaping her lips.
"Adrian... not here... mmph..."
The girl’s delicate, alluring face seemed to be covered with a blush, so red, so enchanting.
Almost causing the man to lose control.
Adrian prided himself on his self-control, but in the presence of this petite woman, he couldn’t manage it at all.
He gazed at the girl’s neck, as fair as white jade, even though Cecilia was wrapped up so tightly. Her eyes, like silk, made Adrian’s breathing ragged.
"Cecilia, are you doing this to torture me on purpose?"
...
Of course, Cecilia wanted to shake her head, but the space in the car was too small, and Adrian’s body weight was almost entirely on her.
"No, I want to go home..."
Cecilia’s head was dizzy, her eyelashes fluttering like butterfly wings.
"We’re already home..."
Adrian whispered meaningfully in the girl’s ear.
"Cecilia, see, we’re already at Starfall Bay? This is our home, with no one else around."
With the man’s words, Adrian’s unruly large hand had slipped from Cecilia’s white turtleneck sweater downward.
His hand caressed gently; even through the thick fabric, it sent a heavy jolt of electricity.
"Ah, this is a garage, I want to go home... mmph..."
Cecilia’s heart skipped, she tried hard to resist, but Adrian refused to let her go.
His seemingly electrified hand moved from her delicate butterfly bone to the small of the girl’s waist.
Although Adrian’s hand was much warmer than Cecilia’s, when he actually pulled up the turtleneck, Cecilia felt chilled to the bone for a moment.
"Move it! Your hand is so cold..."
Cecilia involuntarily called out, but Adrian was being naughty, deliberately clutching the girl’s waist. Pulling down her sweater, he nibbled on her beautiful collarbone.
"Cecilia, I’m cold too, the car’s air conditioning is off. Let me warm up a bit, won’t you?"
"..."
Cecilia was defeated by Adrian’s logic; she almost wanted to ask why the man couldn’t turn on the air conditioning.
But just as she was about to speak, she realized that if she demanded the air conditioning, it made it seem like she wanted to stay in the underground garage.
"Shameless! I’m not your heater..."
The usually cool and handsome CEO lowered his guard, looking at Cecilia with grievance, his voice softened, sounding like a high school boy you just wanted to bully.
"Cecilia, I’ve warmed your hands so many times; can’t you act as my heater once?"
"..."
Logical and irrefutable. How is this possible?
Seeing the man’s clear, spring-like eyes, Cecilia was almost fooled by his obedient puppy demeanor.
Until his large hand grew more brazen, constantly stirring the fire on her leg.
Heaters aren’t meant to be used like this!
No one bullies like Adrian...
...
Cecilia felt truly at a loss for words.
"Enough! Stop! Mmph..."
Cecilia tried to sit up straight, but Adrian’s weight was something she couldn’t compete with.
Her struggling only made the dark glimmer in Adrian’s eyes even more intense.
With a flick of Cecilia’s hand, a couple of buttons on Adrian’s shirt popped open, juxtaposing his cold intellectual appearance with a strangely wicked beauty.
"Cecilia, if you keep moving, I won’t be able to hold back..."
Adrian stared at the girl with deep meaning, his voice husky, the implication in his words enough to make one’s ears burn.
...
He, he actually...
A gentleman rogue!
Cecilia felt the man’s change, and her head spun, fireworks exploding in her mind.
Her breath caught, almost afraid to meet Adrian’s eyes.
"I won’t move anymore, Adrian. Could you please get up and open the car door?"
"Cecilia, do you perhaps enjoy the feeling of doing it with the car door open?"
Adrian whispered with a low chuckle near the girl’s ear!
This shameless man deliberately misinterpreted her words!
"Ah, what are you doing—"
Cecilia instantly wanted to glare at Adrian, but just as she raised her hand, the entire seat reclined backward, turning flat, and the two rolled into a pile!
