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.

It wasn’t until the light went through another cycle of red to green again that Nathaniel unwillingly let

killed the engine and held her small hands while affectionately gazing at her delicate face.

“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.”

“I’m telling the truth.” He grinned, too.

“In two days, I’ll be going on a business trip to Hallsbay. It may be a week before I can return.” Nathaniel paused before turning to Christina. “How about you ask for a leave and accompany me there?” Hallsbay’s a prominent city, so there should be plenty of fun sights to visit.

Looking somewhat troubled, she rejected his invitation. “I’ve just received a new assignment, so I can’t leave now. How about next time?”

Of course, he was disappointed to hear that. So, money can’t solve everything, after all. Although, after our dispute last time, I’d like to avoid arguing with her over small matters. I suppose there’s nothing else I can do about this. “Okay, we’ll go there next time.”

Christina withdrew her hand. “I’ll be going back now, then.”

“Mhm.”
