"But... if you’re prepared to face the public with me, then I'll attend all future socializing events while holding you close."
Shaun emphasized each word with seriousness as if h e was saying his vows in the church.
Catherine felt something moved.
She was only a normal woman. She could not resist feeling touched despite knowing there was someone else in his heart.
Especially when those sweet whispers came out from the mouth of this ridiculously handsome man. Right a t that moment, the bewildering attractiveness he exuded swept through her senses.
"It seems like I’ll have to prove my love to you with actions."
His thin lips curled into an enigmatic smile before he kissed her lips.
"No..." She was flustered upon realizing what he was about to do.
She had been traumatized since that first night. 2
"Good girl, you're such a Nervous Nellie so I must give you some sense of security." He held her thin waist
closer.
Her cheeks were flushed red.
How could he say those words with such confidence?
"I promise I'll never hurt you again.”
She found herself drowning in his gentle voice.
The following day.
Shaun stepped out of the bathroom after getting dressed to find Catherine still lying on the bed. Her lips looked soft and supple. She kept her eyes closed, reluctant to look at him.
"Lazy piggy, the sun’s out and it's time to wake up. The stylist will be here later with the evening gown."
