Back in the villa, the two couples sat in the living room with their eyes fixed on the TV.
They were all watching the news channel.
After a few minutes, the news segment began with the headline of the day. Astrid Iverson was arrested!
In the new broadcast, there was a replay of the comical scene of Astrid being escorted away by the police. It was still amusing enough to elicit laughter.
“Huh? This handsome police officer looks familiar, like I’ve seen him somewhere…”
Carrie’s chin rested on her fingertips, and her kitten-like eyes suddenly brightened. “Oh, I remember now! He sat next to me at Mrs. Thompson’s birthday banquet. The young officer even chatted with me...”
Before she could finish her sentence, Ryan’s eyes darkened, unable to resist seizing her chin. His dominant and fiery kiss enveloped her entire soft lips, exuding both fierceness and a hint of jealousy.
Bella and Justin were both engrossed in watching the news. But when they heard the smooching sounds, they both paused in surprise.
Immediately, Justin leaned over, shielding the provocative display of affection and lowering his head to kiss Bella deeply.
“What’s wrong? Is it not suitable for minors, so you won’t let me watch?”
Bella pouted coquettishly. “I’ve seen all kinds of scenes in my life. It’s just a kiss.”
“No... I’m afraid you’d feel awkward.” Justin lightly pinched her nose, smiling helplessly.
“Hmph! I’m not the one feeling awkward. It’s obviously someone else who is feeling awkward.”
Ryan’s eyes left Carrie’s lips after a while. Her eyes were watery after being kissed by him, and her breathing was in disarray.
“Honey, are you trying to make me jealous by mentioning other men in front of me?”
