The Billionaire's Maid Bride novel Chapter 128

Allison quickly pulled her hand back and bent down, ready to grab the earring and bolt. Suddenly, an arm circled her waist, and she was lifted up, letting out a sharp scream.

The weightlessness scared her.

"What the hell are you doing, Lucian?"

She squirmed in his grip. His arm was like a freaking iron clamp.

Lucian caught a whiff of a light, sweet scent. It was her natural fragrance.

He eyed her lips and swooped down to steal a kiss. Before Allison could react, he pulled the earring from her ear and threw it in the trash.

Compared to Lucian, Allison's struggle was like a kitten batting at a lion. She couldn't figure out why he was suddenly acting tough. She shoved him hard, but he deftly dodged her.

Allison stood up, quickly sidestepping him, and said, "I don't want the earring anymore, Mr. Lindbergh; I hope you'll stop bothering me. You're Ms. Flanagan's fiancé."

She wiped her mouth and turned to leave.

Lucian smelled the sweetness she left behind; his voice was hoarse as he asked, "Where were you on the night of June 17th?"

That was the night when he returned to the Silver Star Hotel and was drugged.

Allison stopped. She turned around and smiled. "I was at the hospital during that time. Dr. Dylan is my mom's doctor; we were together every day."

That seemed to set Lucian off.

"Get out! Get the hell out!"

He could still taste the sweetness on her lips. Lucian scowled and gave the coffee table a solid kick, sending it toppling onto the carpet, with water from the cup spilling everywhere.

He had lost control because of Allison.

Leaving Lindbergh Corporation, Allison realized she was drenched in cold sweat.
