"Alright, I'm done watching this show. I'll let you two have some time alone. I won't bother you for now. You have to tell me everything when you come to the company tomorrow. I'm leaving now." Shannon left in a huff after she said that. She was even considerate enough to close the door for us.
After she left, Theo let down his guard completely and pulled me into his arms. "It's been a long time since I hugged you like this."
My hands on his broad chest, I said with a smile, "Nonsense. We hugged back then in the private room."
I still recalled asking Theo to meet in the private room during the appreciation banquet back then. I would not have had to reapply my lipstick if he had not kissed me. We almost aroused Nicky's suspicion.
"Oh, I forgot. It’s probably because that moment didn’t last long enough. Why don't I make up for it now?"
He lowered his head and raised my chin after he said that.
His cold, thin lips pressed against mine. He went deeper and deeper each time, depriving me of oxygen.
Sensing that I was struggling, Theo let go of me. He frowned at my rosy complexion and smiled. "You taste good."
He reached his hand up to rub the corners of his lips that had been stained red. It was a charming gesture.
I eyed him and said, "You rogue."
"It's not against the law to kiss your own wife."
Theo rarely laughed like he was some villain.
"Don't forget we're divorced now, so I'm not your wife," I said with a smile.
Theo wrapped his hands around my slender waist. "So, when are we going to get our marriage registered again?"
