Chapter 35 So, Am I A Good Kisser

The phone on the table buzzed, drawing Jayden's attention away from his meal. While engrossed in the message, he failed to notice Elyse pouring herself another glass of wine and quietly savoring it

When he finally looked up after finishing his message, he was greeted by her flushed face and shining eyes. His gaze fell upon the wine bottle, positioned just inches away from its original place.

Calmly, Jayden questioned, "Tell me honestly, how many glasses did you have?"

Elyse, despite gesturing five with her fingers, confidently replied, "Just three glasses."

"Do you realize how potent this wine is? Even I wouldn't have three glasses in one sitting," Jayden remarked.

Elyse shook her head, leaning closer to him and speaking softly "I was just feeling so happy. That's why I had a few extra glasses."

Jayden, amused by her drunken state, decided to tease her. "How happy exactly?"

"Well, there's your assistance, the removal of online rumors, and your hopeful recovery after massages, Elyse said with a giggle.

"So you're only happy about those things, Jayden noted with a smirk Observing Dyse in her softened state, he found her remarkably alluring. With a playful gesture, he reached out and gently pinched her cheek

She grasped his arm, a lock of concern etched on her face. "No, you can stand up. Once we achieve it, we'll demonstrate to everyone and prove them wrong"

"Do you think standing up will be that easy for me?" Jayden countered.
