Chapter 45: Give Her an Out

Edward is enraged by her words. He pushes Alice further onto the wall. Their faces are so close that they could feel each other’s warmth in their breath.

His body sticks close to hers and his lips are right next to her ears. Looking at Alice’s fair skin and juicy lips, Edward slowly loses control. He follows his heart, and kiss on that juicy lips.

“No…No…” Alice struggles but she is pushed onto the wall and she’s too weak to push Edward away. Edward hugs her waist. Alice feels strengthless under Edward’s kiss, it feels so hot and she is forced to dive into the heat of the kiss.

Initially, Edward only wanted to punish Alice with the kiss, but her lips…Her soft and sweet lips make him want more. Just when he notices the changes in his body, he takes a step back and keeps a distance from Alice. He looks at Alice in her eyes in a lustful way.

Alice comes to senses after Edward distance himself away from her. When she notices there are still onlookers, she glares at Edward and leaves the scene as fast as she could.

Edward watches her disappear. He can’t help but plunges deep in his contemplation.

The atmosphere cools down. Onlookers walk away. Edward feels his heart wavers… He promised himself not to fall for her anymore but…

Edward hasn’t shown up ever since. Alice feels relief and angry at the same time for what he did the other day.

When Alice packs her stuff and about to go off from work, there is a man at the door.

“Alice, that man is here again,” Julie says haltingly.

“Edward Smith, what is it that you want this time?” Word comes out without much consideration. However, when Alice looks at the direction of the door, she dazes.

The man is wearing a white shirt and black trousers. His face is well-sculptured and his eyes are especially charming. He stands by the door and he is holding a bouquet of white lily.

It’s Randall Collins.
