Caught In His Embrace: A Second Chance Romance

Chapter 358 The touch on his fingertips was soft and gentle , like flowers just ready for picking .

The new sensations overwhelmed Howard , sending shivers through his scalp and making his thoughts momentarily vanish But his body reacted before his mind could catch up .

Howard carefully laid Rosie down on the sofa , cradling her chin as he enjoyed the vibrant bloom of her lips .

A spark raced through him .

Her lips were not just soft , but also sweet .

A long lost memory surfaced a night many years ago when he had also kissed her .

Hmm … Rosie in his arms suddenly frowned , letting out a soft , unhappy sound .

Howard froze , quickly pulling away from her .

He touched her face and asked .

Whats wrong ? Are you uncomfortable ! Roue pouted , her brow wrinkled .

She was calling for Daniel .

The thought that she was sparked a fire of anger inside him .

Did she think it was Daniel who kissed her ? His grip loosened , and he jumped to his feet .

As he started to leave .

Rosie began to whimper again .

Go … go away ! alone … As she spoke , she wrapped her arms tightly around herself , tears quietly flowing down her cheeks .

He had misjudged .

Knowing her husband , Rosie would surely want space , not closeness .

Howard bent down and hugged her , whispering softly in her car .
