Her face, soft and gentle, would make any man feel attracted to her.
Sanford continued to stare at her, feeling the gloom that had burdened his heart for months begin to lighten.
He couldnât take off his eyes on her pink lips, as if he wanted it to become his at this very moment.
He slowly put his fingers on her chin, lifting it up in order to make her look in his eyes.
Maggie felt as if she couldnât breathe, nervously staring at the handsome face so close to hers.
Her fingers clutched the hem of her clothes, instinctively closing her eyes, as if she had finally accepted what might happen next.
However, a ringtone suddenly resounded, breaking the silence in the car.
Startled, Maggieâs eyes instantly snapped open as she sat up straight.
Her face was flushed red while smoothing her slightly disheveled hair.
On the other hand, Sanford had a frown on his face, obviously annoyed at the interruption.
He also straightened up and picked up his ringing phone, glancing at the name of the caller.
It turned out to be Brian.
The timing couldnât be worse.
Sanford clicked his tongue hostilely before pressing the answer button.
âWhatâs up?â
âWhere did your car go? I donât see it following us.
Did something happen?â Brian asked casually.
âNothing.
Iâll catch you up soon.
â
There was a brief silence over the line as Brian noticed that something was amiss.
âIs anything interrupted by my call?â
Sanford raised an eyebrow, his response tinged with sarcasm, âEverything.
â
The moment was ruined!
Sanford hung up the phone and restarted the car, purring the engine to life.
Maggie swallowed hard, her ears still flushed with a lingering heat.
If that call hadnât interrupted, they would have kissed.
Memories surged through her, each one sweet and unforgettable.
Now their relationship would be more complicatedâ¦
âI havenât congratulated you on becoming a bridal gown designer yet,â
