His Dangerous Love novel Chapter 59

Chapter 59 Explain This Silly Thing

"There's no rush."

Jefferson flexed his fingers and tapped the table twice. "Let's settle scores first."

Elianna stiffened and dropped her head like a child who had done something wrong, her eyes darting back and forth.

The things Elianna owed Jefferson that came to her mind included, but were not limited to: making Jefferson lose a building, using Jefferson against Brett, and running away at the sight of Darren and leaving him to be teased.

Since she owed him much, she decided to change her attitude first.

"I was wrong."

Not daring even to look at Jefferson, she tried desperately to make her voice sound sincere.

Jefferson let out a sarcastic laugh. "Why do you keep your head down?"

"Because I'm the adulterer?"

Did she think Jefferson was an adulterer...

Elianna's scalp tingled. Instead of playing dumb, she scooted her chair over.

It wasn't until the two chairs were put together that she cautiously turned to Jefferson. "I didn't mean that."

A small smile lifted the corners of Jefferson's mouth as he suddenly raised his hand.

Elianna's heart raced, but she didn't dare move.

His fingers brushed the side of her face and slowly raked through her long black hair with a satin sheen.

His gentle caress turned into a hard grip on the back of her head.

Elianna's scalp tingled. She was forced to tilt her head back so that her whole face was in his line of sight.

A pained expression came over her tortured face, and Jefferson's lips curved up at the corners with pleasure.

Inch by inch, his gaze moved down from her brow, to her slightly parted lips and her neck.

The red marks caught his eye, and he was tempted to look into her collar.

Elianna's chest rose and fell with rapid breaths perhaps because she was nervous.

She was alluring.

Jefferson pulled her closer and whispered in her ear in a low husky voice as if he was dallying with his lover.

"Anna, I'm now giving you a chance to explain all this sh*t of yours. And I'll give you whatever you want."

It was a very tempting promise.

A promise from Jefferson.
