Obsessive CEO’s Sinful Wife

Chapter 3

“I’m sorry,” Serenity’s face suddenly turned red. “I… I was just… If… If you’ve got nowhere to go, you can stay with me here.”

She blurted those words out nervously at first, but now that she had gotten it off her chest, she was filled with a sense of relief.

The man’s obsidian-like eyes were fixed on her flushed red face, and a look of surprise seemed to have flashed across his face.

“If you don’t want to stay here,” she said, biting her lips, “it’s fine. Just pretend that I never said anything.”

His thin lips finally parted as he asked, “Do you want me to stay here?”

His voice was as cold as a winter spring, and the silence of the room made it sound even more crystal clear.

Had those words come from another man’s lips, it would have sounded like flirting. However, this man’s voice made it sound as if it was a factual question that demanded a definite ‘yes’ or ‘no’ answer. There was simply no room for ambiguity or mystery in his tone, even his eyes were perfectly calm.

Serenity pursed her lips and replied, “Yes, I’d like you to stay here.”

And that was her honest answer.

He stared at her, and a faint smile slowly bloomed on his thin lips as he said, “Okay, then.”

It was the first time she had ever seen him smile, and although it was such a faint and subdued smile, it was still so… incredibly beautiful.
