‘What should I do…’
The next day, Blair’s first thought after coming to her senses was that. When she recalled the events of the previous day, her mind became distant, contemplating how to handle the situation.
Rather than having any specific thoughts, her memories were scattered, almost mocking her. Being alone on the balcony to sober up, encounter
Determined, Blair left the bathroom and descended to the dining room. It was close to noon, and Herdin had already finished his meal and was attending to his official duties.
Blair sat alone in the dining room and had her meal. Normally, she wasn’t one to eat quickly, but today her pace was slower than usual.
After finishing her meal, she decided to go and apologize to Herdin. However, that didn’t mean she was eager to do so
“Ah, right. So, what should we do about Viscount Baldwin’s matter? In my opinion, it might be better to quietly settle things by offering him some money.”
Blair was taken aback upon hearing the name ‘Baldwin.’ Viscount Baldwin was the noble family that Wesley, who had harassed her last night, belonged to.
From Ruth’s story, it seemed like Wesley, who had received a beating from
He wore the same expressionless face as usual, but somehow, his gaze felt like he was scrutinizing Blair as if she were a criminal. It was because of the guilt she harbored.
Blair hesitated for a moment and asked, “What did Viscount Baldwin say about yesterday’s incident?”
“There was a slight disturbance, but there’s nothing to worry about.”
Herdin appeared nonchalant, but Blair bit her lower lip anxiou
He stepped forward and stood in front of Blair.
“What happened afterward is crucial.”
Speaking in a low voice, he whispered, grabbing Blair’s hand.
“What we talked about, what we did.”
His thumb swept over the soft flesh inside Blair’s wrist, as if trying to recall the memories of last night.
The spot where his hand touched felt as if it were on fire. Simultaneously, the hazy memories of last night became vivid.
His lips touching the inside of her wrist, the
However, if she were to run away from here, wouldn’t that be proving to herself that she still had lingering feelings for him?
Blair nodded slightly with confidence and determination.
“… I’ll prepare and wait tonight.”
Upon hearing Blair’s response, Herdin’s face contorted for a moment, resembling that of a wounded person.
However, he quickly put on a twisted smile. Even though it should have been the answer he desired,
He held onto both sides of the desk where she was sitting, trapping her with his large body. In his eyes that met hers, a sly desire flickered.
He is sincere.
Blair, startled for a moment, pushed away Herdin, who was attempting to press his lips against hers.
“This is not okay. This is the office, and it’s still broad daylight…”
“This is my office, and I want it now. Isn’t that enough?”
After all the complaints about c
Herdin wrapped his arms around her waist and lower back. It seemed like he was supporting her for a moment, but in reality, it was to prevent her from escaping.
“Ah…”
When the breathless Blair barely pushed him away, her back and chest were already exposed, as he had unbuttoned the buttons on her back.
The half-undressed appearance exposed in the sunlight was disgraceful. Moreover, his gaze, looking at her in that state as if enjoying the view, was embarrassing.
