Chapter 2631

Yet now, he’s pinning me against a wall and kissing me like crazy. This is thrilling. The more thrilling it

was, the more Shirley melted. In the end, she let herself go and went along with the crazy game. She

wrapped her arms around Zacharias’ neck.

The kiss went on for three minutes, and it soothed their longing slightly. Shirley raised her head, her

eyes glistening with timidity. Both their eyes were also gleaming with desire.

“Come to my place tonight,” requested Zacharias quietly. Their kiss was not enough to quench his

thirst. He had missed Shirley too much.

Shirley gulped nervously. “I’ll tell my folks I’m taking the day off.”

Zacharias looked at the sheepish lady and kissed her forehead. “Sure.”

Shirley wrapped her arms around Zacharias’ waist. She loved his cool, alluring scent, and she looked

at him closely, trying to see if he was exhausted from all the work. Fortunately, Zacharias seemed to

have an abundance of energy. He looked as lively as ever.

“Have you been busy lately?” Zacharias held Shirley’s hand and led her to his couch. He picked up his

teacup and handed it to her.

Shirley took it and had a sip of water before she nodded. “A bit, but not as busy as you.”

Zacharias took a seat, staring at Shirley’s face in love. Shirley held up the teacup, enjoying the

attention he was giving her.

Just then, Zacharias thought of something on a whim. He wanted to take her along for dinner later. “I

have an appointment tonight. Dinner, if you will. Can you come with me?”Books Chapters Are Daily

It was an appointment with another country’s vice president. He would bring his wife along as well, so

Zacharias wanted to bring Shirley with him.

Shirley was a little nervous hearing that she would be meeting an important guest. “Me? Who are we

meeting?”

“Dansbury’s vice president and his wife,” Zacharias said. She smiled. “This will be part of your life

eventually. You can practice for it.”

Shirley realized that marrying Zacharias didn’t just mean a regular marriage. She had responsibility.

She must stand with him and face the future together. Bravely, she said, “Of course. I’ll go.”

She was willing to face anything with him. No matter how nervous she was, she must conquer her

fears. Marrying him was not an unconditional thing. She must become a woman who could face

anything with courage.

Zacharias was touched. He pulled her into his embrace and kissed her forehead. “Thank you for

coming with me.”

“Part of my job.” Shirley smiled. This was her honor. When she told her parents about it, they backed

her up. They knew the responsibility Zacharias was carrying, and if their daughter wanted to marry him,

part of that responsibility would fall on her as well.

Noon arrived. Shirley was in the waiting room. A makeup team and outfit team were serving her. These

people were professionals. They picked a light green gown that gave off a fresh feeling. It was simple

yet elegant. Shirley’s hair was curled, which made her look even more elegant.

Shirley stood before the mirror, looking at herself. She pursed her lips and took a deep breath. I have to

bring my A-game tonight. I can’t embarrass Zacharias.

Then, it was evening. Zacharias stopped working and came out of the conference room. Freddie

draped a suit over him and said, “Sir, Miss Lloyd awaits you in the waiting room.”

Zacharias made his way to the waiting room, buttoning his sleeves. Shirley was on the couch, reading.

When he saw her, he was stunned by her beauty. She looked gorgeous, with the regal backdrop

accentuating her. Zacharias stopped breathing for a moment.

Shirley sensed someone coming in. She looked up and saw Zacharias and stood up, smiling. “Is it time

to go?”
