Words I Was Afraid To Hear Chapter 68

"Too bad my fiancé is that loser . " Madeline Song licked her lips and pointed towards Dan's direction using her thumb .

"Why you little . . !" Dan was furious . He stomped his way towards them .

Before he reached where they were, Madeline Song had strode towards the door .

"Ciao!" She waved her hand without turning back and shot the door behind her .

Midori had an expression that was difficult to describe . She recalled an event a few weeks ago when she was shopping for clothes .

"Midori Xiu, is that really you?" A lady with a huge pair of b.r.e.a.s.t.s that could cause her a back injury came walking towards her before she could can an attendant for dress fitting .

She pondered on the ident.i.ty of this girl . Then as if recalling, her face lit up . "Madeline Song?"

"Yes! I knew you won't easily forget me . "

It was a bit awkward as huge ma.s.ses of fat hit Midori's chest as the curvy woman pulled her to an embrace . That and, aren't they rivals? Well, it was several years back, and is the rivalry just made up as they were kids?

"You're gorgeous . Wanna go grab some coffee?" Madeline's hand snaked from Midori's shoulder, tracing her spine .

Before the hand can reach her b.u.t.tocks, she instinctively stepped away .

"Uhm . . . maybe next time . I . . . I need to go now . " Without looking back, she hurriedly went to another store .

"Dori . . . " Dan's voice snapped her from the memory . "Are you alright?"

She nodded, but there were tears in her eyes .

He stepped forward tp her, but her voice stopped him .

"Don't go near!" She was trembling . Then she ran to the bathroom .

Dan went to the kitchen .

After a while, he went into the bedroom carrying a bowl of hot n' sour soup . He found Midori on the bed, clutching the sheets .

He placed the tray on the bedside table . "Hey, look at me . . . " He tried to pull the sheets off of her .

When he succeeded, her gloomy face appeared .

He had a gentle smile on his face . Then he held the soup near her . "Have some soup . "

She complied, slowly taking in about two spoonfuls . Then she put down the spoon .

Dan placed the bowl back on the table . Then he embraced her .

"I . . . I was . . . I was kissed by someone else!" she cried .

Indeed, it did not matter if it was a guy or a girl . She felt violated by being kissed by someone else . Though Dan has his tricks sometimes, because she had feelings for him, she never felt this way .

"It's fine . You've already washed your face, right?" He rubbed her back .

"It's not fine!" She was protesting like a spoiled kid .

"Then let me wipe that memory . "

"Wh" Before she could clarify, he had taken her lips into a pa.s.sionate kiss .

Midori was panting as she broke the kiss . "Hey . . . why . . . why did she . . . she said . . . you're his fiancé?"

Dan frowned . "The handiwork of my mother . " He sighed . "It's just for show . . . for us both . As you can see, she likes girls . And of course, I will only marry you . " His face was turned into a gentle smile .
