Chapter 544

Peter had just approached when he heard Jenkins crying and saying something, so he immediately asked, “What did you say?”

Jenkins was startled. When she turned her head and saw it was Peter, she immediately glared at him, said nothing, and turned back to continue her work.

Today, her task was to clean the windows, one of which was near the second–floor corridor and required her to reach high.

Jenkins was up on a ladder while cleaning the windows.

Peter accidentally touched the ladder, and it immediately began to tilt. Jenkins swayed. Her pupils shrank from fear, and she let out a scream.

Then she fell from the ladder.

Seeing this, Peter didn’t think twice before immediately catching her in his arms.

The expected pain didn’t come; instead, Jenkins landed in a pair of strong arms. Opening her eyes, she saw Peter, which scared her into pushing him away.

Then she fell onto the ground, hurting her backside.

Peter immediately stepped forward. “Are you okay?”

Jenkins asked angrily, “Why did you let go?”

Peter said, “Didn’t you push me?”

He touched his nose awkwardly and then looked at his palms.

Susan liked him, and he knew it, but when he was with Susan, he always felt calm, like still water, never knowing what it felt like to be passionate about someone.

Even when they hugged or kissed, he still didn’t want to take it further, and he didn’t feel much of anything.

Only just now, when he held Jenkins and felt the firm and soft buttocks of the woman in his hands, he felt as if his palms had been burned.
