She came out and saw him standing at the door.

She felt she had someone to rely on at home.

“Why aren’t you looking at me?” Adrian Zhekova appeared in front of Cindy Clarke before she knew it.

By the time Cindy reacted, his slipper-clad feet were in her sight, accompanied by Adrian Zhekova’s low and soothing voice.

Just as Cindy was about to raise her head, Adrian leaned down, bringing his smiling face right up to her eyes.

He kissed her.

“I was afraid that after leaving, you wouldn’t own up to anything,” Adrian chuckled, “You still remember, right?”

“Yes,” whispered Cindy, “I never intended to forget.”

“Hard to say, you do have a history of it,” Adrian laughed lightly as he took her hand,

Attracted by his words, Cindy didn’t notice his actions.

Unwittingly, her hand fell into his palm.

“What history do I have?” Cindy was genuinely baffled.

Little did she know, her mobile phone would reappear before her eyes.

It was the old mobile she had shown him earlier.

She had been so nervous that she forgot to take it back from him then.

Adrian said, “If it weren’t for the evidence in my hand, you wouldn’t have taken responsibility for me.”

“That’s not true,” As she spoke, she tried to snatch the mobile phone back.

But Adrian was faster, and he quickly tucked the phone back into his pocket.

Cindy’s hand stopped in front of his pocket, not daring to reach in any further.

“Keep trying, why aren’t you trying?” Adrian raised an eyebrow, seeming to want her to reach into his pocket.

The more Adrian prompted, the more Cindy held back, muttering, “It’s my mobile phone in the first place.”

“Once it’s in my possession, it’s mine,” Adrian patted the mobile phone in his pocket, “All these years, I have looked at it countless times. Every time I looked, I wondered who was so daring that I just had to find them and not let them go.”

Cindy wasn’t afraid of him now and didn’t worry that he would hurt her. Revenge was unfounded.

So, Cindy smiled and confidently asked, “Now that you’ve found me, how do you plan not to let me go?”

Adrian lowered his head and narrowed his eyes slightly.

Suddenly, Cindy felt a sense of danger.

It was only now that she realized, she had unknowingly been led by Adrian to her bedroom door.

Now that she had realized, her first instinct was to run.

But she was already in his grasp, so where could she run to?

With a gentle tug, Adrian pulled her into the bedroom.

As he closed the door behind them, he lifted her and pressed her against it.

“Adri…” Her words were cut off as he sealed her lips with his.

By the time she came to, she was sitting on the bed, held in Adrian’s embrace.

Adrian sat leaning against the headboard with his long legs stretched out lazily.

He held Cindy, allowing her to lean against his chest.

Seeing her suspicion, as though wondering why he didn’t continue, Adrian couldn’t help but smile, “Don’t look at me like that, it’s not easy for me to hold back. If you’re so surprised, I’ll just fulfill your wish.”

What wish?!

She…she didn’t have any intentions!

With a flushed face, Cindy quickly averted her gaze.

Better yet, she stopped looking at him altogether.

Adrian explained, “Even though I really want to, and we already have a child together, our encounter is a bit out of order. Strictly speaking, we’ve just met, and we haven’t known each other for a very long time..”
