Chapter 360

"I-I didn't... I didn't mean to lie to you..." Erik stammered, his mind in a whirl. Just as he had finally gotten rid of his bad habits, now he was back to stuttering in panic.

His mind was completely consumed with the feeling of Nyx's fingers touching his lips, and he couldn't think about whether the orange was sweet or sour.

Not daring to linger, Arlong quickly made his exit.

The room was left with just the two of them, the air quiet except for their breathing.

Erik couldn't hold it in any longer. He spoke sourly, "Why didn't you ask me if I like sour things?"

He thought, 'I am her husband, so why should she care about someone else?'
