Chapter 199

Genevieve felt embarrassed to admit it, fearing her words might enchant him and make him lose control.

After a prolonged standoff, Anthony finally released her hand, and then gently touched her eyes and brows.

Before she could sigh with relief, Anthony suddenly leaned in, his handsome face right in front of her.

Genevieve’s heart skipped a beat.

Before she could react, Anthony’s warm lips pressed firmly against hers, dominant yet aloof.

As their lips met, a surge of electricity surged through her, sending a delightful shiver down her spine.

The contrast in physical strength between the man and the woman became evident at that moment.

He appeared somewhat hurried but at the same time leisurely in his desire for control, both over her and

He casually enjoyed kissing her, savoring the moment with his hand unmoving.

softly.

They drew close together. The man exuded warmth, while the woman seemed refreshingly cool.
