Chapter 25 Fluttering in the Heart
Amber lost her temper and decided to land a vicious kick on Liam's calf.
However, she failed to cause much damage to him because she was not wearing shoes.
Liam knew he shouldn't laugh at her failure, but he just couldn't help it.
Amber looked so adorable when she got hot under the collar. It was a pity that he could not see her amusing expression clearly in the darkness.
While Liam allowed his imagination to run wild, Amber, who was offended by his laughter, went livid with rage.
To punish him, she sank her teeth into the flesh of his arm!
"You deserve this for blocking my way and laughing at me, you arrogant piece of shit!" she cursed in her mind.
Amber bit his arm ruthlessly.
Sensing her anger, Liam quickly let go of her.
"Are you angry with me?" Liam raised his brow quizzically at her and smiled craftily.
Amber's face flushed in fury. "What an annoying man he is! He sounds so guileless as though he didn't try to take advantage of me just now!" she thought.
Ignoring him, she crouched down to pick up her windbreaker.
However, the windbreaker got stuck somewhere. She was careful not to yank it too hard lest it was damaged. She simply could not afford to buy a new one at the moment. Liam offered to give her a hand, "You need my help?"
At that juncture, Amber happened to be straightening up while he was bending down. Just like that, the two bumped into each other.
Liam's hands came into physical contact with Amber's smooth and bare skin.
His heart was thumping fast, and flames of desire started burning in his lower abdomen when he could feel the beautiful and smooth outline of her waist with his hands. "Is she...naked?" Liam wondered. He narrowed his eyes slightly, trying to take a better look at Amber's body.
He felt her ice-cold skin just now... "Is she wearing nothing now?" he thought.
In the meantime, Amber was stroking her sore jaw which was rammed into Liam's shoulder just now.
She couldn't believe she was stuck in such a hopeless situation. Everything that could take place in a soap drama had happened to her.
Being as quick-witted as ever, Liam had realized that Amber was trying to search for her windbreaker.
"Should I turn on the screen of my phone so that you can look better?" Liam fished out his phone and gestured at her.
"No way!" Amber staggered backward in shock when she heard that. Once Liam turned on the screen, her body would be exposed to his eyes.
"Chill out, girl. It's not like I've never seen your body before..." For some reason, his comment brought two crimson patches on Amber's cheeks. She couldn't believe what he just said. "Did Liam, the cold and evil man, just say that?" she wondered.
He sounded like he was flirting with her.
"Well, take my phone then. I'll turn around while you search for your jacket." Liam groped his way in the darkness and tried to pass his phone to Amber. The moment their hands brushed against each other, both of them felt a flutter in their hearts.
Amber hesitated before turning on the screen of his phone.
By then, Liam had honored his words by turning around.
Amber squatted down to look for her windbreaker. It was stuck on a wooden hanger next to the wall.
She hastily put it back on. Just as she was about to pass the phone back to Liam, someone knocked on the door. "Mr. Croft, are you in there?"☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐
