Yulia lightly pushed him off. âItâs nothing. You heard wrong!ââOh? Really?âSkylarâs eyes lit up with a plan in mind. Yulia let out a startled cry immediately after.He had scooped her up into his arms into a princess carry.âAre you sure itâs nothing?âHe smirked. âIâll carry you to your office until you remember what you said.ââH-Hey⦠Put me down. Everyoneâs staring!âShocked and mortified, she repeatedly hammered her fists against his chest in protest.The cafe was right across the street from the office building, with most of its employees patronizing it. What was she going to do if everyone witnessed their president cradled in a manâs arms?âDo you remember what you called me then?âIt was as if Skylar was competing to see which one of them was more of a rascal.âIâ¦Iâ¦âShe was at a loss for words. She had wanted to play a trick on him at first.Who wouldâve thought Skylar to be such a tease to insist she yielded to him out in the open?Her overbearing partner had her speechless.What was even more bewildering was how sweet he was being.âYuliaâ¦âSkylar murmured tenderly to the woman in his arms.Yuliaâs heart fluttered. She then responded softly, âHusband!ââPut me downâ¦âA heartfelt confession whispered in her ear stopped her mid-sentence.âI love you, Yulia!ââSkylarâ¦âYulia looked up.He pressed a kiss against her lips before she could say a word.She lightly nudged at his chest to push him away, but how could she? All thoughts left her as she moved to his rhythm, lured into a dreamland where only the two of them existedâ¦The kiss was intense and languorous.It wasnât until Yulia felt short of breath that he reluctantly let go.Skylar was bursting with happiness when he scrutinized her lips, swollen and red from his kiss.âYouâre such a pervert!âYulia rebuked petulantly before fleeing out the door when she finally felt everyoneâs gaze on them.âYou forgot your bag!âSkylar called out from behind her.Her blush was so intense that even her neck was red. She was more than ready to leave the scene. What did she care about the bag?Skylar haphazardly snatched up the purse from her seat and chased after her.âIâll take full responsibility, Yulia! I swear!ââI want you to marry me!âHe was standing behind her with a womanâs purse in hand when she whipped around to confront him.She, however, couldnât take the situation seriously as he looked rather comical.She was moved but still acted exasperated. âDid I say I wanted you to take responsibility?âHe, meanwhile, was more than aware of her shenanigans. He didnât care and changed the subject. âYou and Anderson are investing in a new project together?âHe didnât know why but he had a bad feeling about Yuliaâs collegemate.It was only inevitable for him to be worried after hearing that they would be cooperating.Yulia completely misunderstood him.âHey, are you jealous?âShe was giggling as she asked.Ahâ¦Skylar brushed the tip of his nose sheepishly. Am I wary of him because Iâm jealous?He didnât hesitate to answer her. âYeah!
Maybe I am!â
