Let Me Stay The Night

Chapter 50 Reluctant To Leave

As they smiled at each other, their countenances were reflected in each other’s eyes.

Upon stopping the car at a red traffic light, Nathaniel suddenly raised his hand and grabbed the back of Christina’s head with his large palm.

Then he gently pulled her toward his embrace, lifted her chin, and kissed her lips. She has a sweet, refreshing fragrance I don’t think I’ll ever get sick of

As there weren’t any other cars on the street, the black Maybach remained unmoving even after the traffic light turned green.

“I’m reluctant to leave you whenever I send you home” Upon finishing his sentence, Nathaniel raised and pecked the back of her hand.

Christina smiled shyly. “You’re such a sweet-talker.”
