Until I Fall Inlove Again 50 Chapter 50: Sweet Consequence

The man was tongue-tied. For a moment there, he didn't know what to say.

'Did she just say, she likes me?'

His heart was pounding in his ears. He could barely hear anything else except for his rapid beating heart and heavy breathing. Sid had his eyes fixed on the woman. His heart swelled with the sight of her. She was apparently blushing. She look awkward and shy while her lips quiver in bashfulness. He could see her shoulders slightly tremble along with her hands as she pull them away to hide under the table. G.o.d, so she was just as nervous as he was. His worries slowly dissipate and was replaced with a twinge of hope and joy.

"Y-you like me?" Sid finally found his voice. A profound sense of happiness and pa.s.sion lit from within him. His warm gaze bore to the delicate woman who was avoiding his face. The Laurice right now looked delectable and alluring. She's all flushed and enigmatic like a blooming flower in spring. She reminded him of his hometown back in Ireland. She reminded him of the rare homegrown flowers they had in the backyard then. That which when they are in full bloom, looked absolutely breathtaking. Laurice was just like a wildflower. A flowering weed. But not that kind of weed that sprout almost anywhere. She's the kind of native wildflower that thrives to survive given the circ.u.mstances. The rarest kind. The cultured one. Sid wondered how many more faces can the woman show him. He will gladly unveil all of them as it will be his greatest pleasure. His only guilty pleasure.

"W-well, i don't h-hate you." Laurice stummered.

Sid arched his eyebrows in amus.e.m.e.nt. He grinned at the woman who was being defensive. A playful glint flashed his very eyes.

"Can i kiss you, then?" Sid asked.

Laurice inhaled sharply. Her eyes flew wide open.

'How shameless!' Another kiss? No way!

Is it not enough that she confessed already? She was deepy touched with his own confession and felt his sincerity that she decided to give him an honest answer.

"No!" Laurice scoffed, exasperation in her tone.

The man looked even more amused with her expression.

With a cunning smile he said to her, "Too bad, i won't give you your phone back without a kiss."

What?!

Laurice shuddered as she lifted her gaze across the man.

'd.a.m.n!

She needed that more than anything else! Never mind the purse. It doesn't have any cash on it. She can cancel all her cards anytime. Well, not like Sid needed money from her. But she downloaded some confidential files in that particular phone. Not to mention the ma.n.u.scripts that were saved in her phone's memory. Some of the drafts needed a few more work and revision but most of them have been completed already! She would bleed if she dares to rewrite them again one by one, word by word.

Her heart quivered.

Basically, everything work related has been stored in that phone's memory. She could not afford to lose it. Since not every file were saved in the cloud software, there is absolutely no way she can retrieved them. Even the G.o.d's of computer science can't help her. Apparently. although she can afford to buy a new one, the current one is irreplaceable.

Her eyes filled with unshed tears.

...

Sid almost broke out in laughter. The woman looked absolutely adorable and hilarious at the same time. There was no mistaking that the phone was important to her. He could roughly guess why, given her nature of work and interests. He felt the suddenn urge to tease her some more. He wondered if she would bawl out in tears. But he knew for a fact that that would undeniably break his heart.

"Where's my kiss?" Sid probed.

"Are you serious?" Laurice asked in rage. What an audacious request indeed.

With a deadpan face, Sid replied, "Kiss me and i'll give it back to you."

Laurice bit her lip and pleaded. "Can you ask for something else?"

Sid shook his head.

Sh*t, the man just won't compromise. Kiss him where then? Laurice's eyes unknowingly darted straight in the man's lips of all places.They look luscious enough to eat but so what? That would be too much for him to ask from her.

"A hug then." Sid intercepted her thoughts.

Oh! Oh! A hug. She can do that. Wait, a hug? Is there any difference at all?

Outrage and restlessness fueled her initial fury. With balled fists, Laurice rose from her seat.

...

Sid thought the woman would walk right out of his penthouse but he was absolutely mistaken.

His body jolted as the scene quickly unfolds before him. It was such an unexpected plot twist.

...

Sid was startled.

Without warning, Laurice just sat on his freaking lap!

The woman even positioned herself in between his thighs. His back stiffened in an instant. Laurice's scent and her warm body and the heady sensations of being that close to her was driving Sid crazy. His mind totally shut down. His eyes were burning in desire and pa.s.sion. He was only left with the sensation from his waist down. A sudden surge of heat flowed in his body and settled a few inches below his navel. He felt a thug on his shaft underneath his bottom sleepwear. He sucked in his breath praying the woman won't notice his tightness down below.

...

Laurice appear to be more shocked with her own actions that she almost retreated back but a pair of strong hands nestled on her small waist. She could not move at all.

F*ck. This wasn't what she was expecting.

The sudden contact was just too stimulating. Her behavior was rather provoking, is it not? It was even arousing her own inner desires that were foreign to her.

She shifted her gaze and she was met with a pair of familiar deep brown eyes. Her desire seemed to have reflected his own. The man's gaze was hot and intense and curious. Her entire body tensed up. Laurice felt a hot tingling sensation in between her thighs. The indescribable pleasure builds up and keeps on coming.

"Kiss me." The man spoke. His voice was low and hoa.r.s.e.

Laurice trembled. He's voice was too d.a.m.n s.e.xy!

She did not know what came to her at that very moment but she ended up following the command of the person beneath her.

Laurice slid her arms slowly in the man's neck as she edged closer to his face. Sid's breath was warm and heady. His moist and tight lips slightly parted as he welcome Laurice's sweet and sensual kiss.
