Romeo's hand still tightly held hers as he dropped Arabella off at her company's entrance. He looked down at the girl in his arms and asked, "I'll bring you afternoon tea later. Anything in particular you want?"
"You're free now?" she queried.
"I just happen to have some free time."
From the driver's seat, Carl froze at his words. He thought, Mr. McMillian, you have two meetings this afternoon, three partners to meet, and over a dozen documents that need your decision. Are you sure you're free?
"I'm not hungry," Arabella announced, preparing to leave the car. Romeo embraced her tightly, saying, "Just a little longer."
"We're going to be late!"
"Just a little longer," he insisted, inhaling her sweet scent. It was intoxicating.
"Don't bring me anything to eat this afternoon," Arabella said, sounding slightly helpless. "I'm a bit busy."
"Do you need my help?"
"No."
After being detained by Romeo for a while, Arabella finally managed to pull away from his grasp and hurriedly headed toward her company.
"Mr. McMillian, it seems like Ms. Bella was in a hurry to leave..." Carl observed as he watched Arabella's retreating figure. He glanced in the rear-view mirror to find Romeo's gaze fixed on the girl.
"Oh, and Mr. McMillian, the restaurant manager asked me to give you these..." Carl unlocked his phone and sent a dozen pictures to Romeo's phone.
They were photos from their lunch at the Ferris Wheel Restaurant. The handsome man and beautiful woman were eye-catching.
