Chapter 84 The Sadness Won’t Last Forever

As Adam gave Ann a brief tour of the multi-story office block, she couldn’t help but smile at the almost childlike excitement on his face, and the way his chest seemed to puff proudly before him as he strode forward through each room.

He chattered excitedly about ideas for the layout and when Ann protested about the size of the office, an impish smirk appeared on his lips as she blushed furiously.

“You don’t usually complain about things being too big, my Luna.” He whispered heatedly as he stalked towards her slowly.

Ann giggled helplessly and felt her cheeks flush as he pressed her up against a glasspart*ition and ran his hands along the lines of her upper body, exhaling slowly. “Adam… behave..” She murmured with a shy smile on her face.

“Why? We own this building… we can do whatever we want in here and no one can say a thing…” he murmured huskily in her ear as he began kissing down the sensitive skin of her neck and nibbling at the spot her mark lay.

The sensation sent waves of through her and she m*oa*ned loudly, gripping his shoulders instinctively with her hands.

The rising flames of l*st threatened to overwhelm her as Adam pressed his length against her and she was seconds away from giving in to him when the ringtone of her phone rudely intruded on the moment.

Adam’s shoulders sagged as he rested his forehead on her shoulder briefly, before stepping away and running his hands through his hair in frustration.

Ann shrugged apologetically and retrieved her phone from her jacket’s pocket, her heart aching as she saw her father’s name flash up on the caller ID.

She took a deep breath and steeled herself for whatever was to come.
