Chapter 525:

Quickly, Marissa pushed Connor away and then gave her flushed cheeks a vigorous rub. Any other woman would have been so embarrassed that she would have run into the lounge to hide. However, Black Snake didn’t go anywhere.

Burnet couldn’t have possibly visited Connor at this time just for some idle chit-chat. He must have an important matter to discuss, and she most certainly wanted to hear what he had to say. After all, she might gather some information about Clarissa.

Connor, unlike Marissa, wasn’t flustered in the slightest or red-faced. He instead looked at Burnet indifferently, rolled his eyes, and remarked, “Since you know you’ve interrupted something important, then perhaps you should leave. Or do you like to witness a couple being intimate?”

Unfazed by Connor’s words and attitude, Burnet strode over to the sofa and sat down on it in a graceful way that accentuated his strong and rugged features.

At that moment, instead of getting down to business, he began to tease Marissa, saying, “Miss Nash, weren’t you just dating my brother, Xander, a few days ago? In fact, you actually told me personally that you would love to become a member of the Hoffman family. But then, here you are, getting quite intimate with Mr. Daniels.”

Pausing for a moment, he raised his eyes to look at Marissa before continuing, “Am I correct to say that you won’t divorce Mr. Daniels and will break off your relationship with Xander?”
