Before she could react, he leaned down and murmured warmly in her ear, “Don’t I deserve some sort of reward for this, hmm?”He was behaving in such a manner when there were so many reporters and invited guests present, as well as Kareem Fashion’s staff and employees!Skylar’s sudden display of intimacy was unexpected and a bit too much for Yulia.
