The next second, Harriet fell into Maurice’s arms.

“I’m sorry, Mr. Moran!” Harriet said in a hurry, looking up at Maurice with her hands resting against his chest for support. “I couldn’t maintain my balance. I guess I was a little dizzy after riding for such a long time.”

If it weren’t for the fact that her whole body was basically pressed against Maurice, her apology would have sounded more sincere.

As she spoke, she flipped back her hair which was disheveled by the wind while riding, deliberately revealing her slender neck.

The faint, seductive fragrance sprayed on her neck drifted into Maurice’s nose.

Harriet had to hold back the complacent smirk that fought to rush to the surface. In fact, this was a scene that she had rehearsed countless times in her mind.

Even the perfume she was wearing today had been carefully chosen for this specific moment. She would not make any mistakes this time.

Of course, the only reason Harriet had succeeded was because Maurice was too taken aback to react quickly enough.

The moment he realized what was happening, however, he frowned and took a step back, causing Harriet to stumble.

As for the scent of perfume left on his clothes, Maurice found it extremely irritating.

For Eliana, who was standing in the distance, the exact exchange between these two people was not clear.

All she could see was Harriet clinging to Maurice and looking intimately into his eyes, making the two of them looking like a couple.
