Chapter 29 A Shameless Seductress
The whole world knew that the engagement between the Xander and the Lingard families had been called off.
Hence, Lorelei was curious to find out about the good-looking guy who braved the rain to pick Michaela up after work. Upon hearing how she addressed him courteously, Lorelei bowed and introduced herself in a serious tone, “Hi, Mr. Jonathan. I’m Lorelei Summerfield, Mich’s colleague.”
She seemed like a well-mannered and composed girl, but she was in fact, fretting deep down like one who had ants in her pants.
This is my first time meeting Mich’s elder, who is so young and handsome. If it weren’t for Alois, I bet I’d have fallen head over heels for him.
“Hmm,” he briefly acknowledged without any emotions.
His eyes remained fixated on Michaela’s delicate face. “Let’s go,” he urged softly.
An elder? What on earth is she trying to do? Who wants to be her elder?
“I’ll take my leave now, Lorelei. See you tomorrow!”
Michaela could sense the air growing thicker. She was also puzzled when she noticed a slight change in Jonathan’s expression. Did I say something wrong? Why is he even angry? What a bad temper! There’s no wonder rumor has it that he doesn’t get along well with the opposite sex. With an attitude like this, which girl will ever be willing to stay by his side?
After bidding Lorelei goodbye, Michaela quickened her steps and trailed behind like a mouse. She was afraid to step on his toes again. His mood swings are so unpredictable!
When they were about to exit the building, he stopped abruptly. Michaela was not able to stop in time and bumped into him.
“Ouch!”
She felt a sharp pang on her forehead and let out a groan. Before she could rub it, someone else’s hand was already doing the action.
Surprised, she looked up and was met by Jonathan’s worried gaze. His palm on her forehead was so warm.
