Forbidden Passion

Chapter 334 Theodore's Seduction

Phoebe instinctively turned to dodge, her whole body tingling. She raised her hands with a pitiful expression, not daring to touch his burning body. "I feel dizzy," Phoebe said.

"Are you always dizzy?" Theodore asked in a hoarse voice, his sexy bass making Phoebe's legs weak.

Phoebe bit her lower lip, her expression showing a mixture of confusion and panic. She trembled as she said, "I haven't adjusted to the time difference yet."

Theodore squinted and bit her shoulder lightly. She trembled in his arms like a leaf in the wind.

He smiled. "I'll let you off for now."

With that, he stood up straight and pulled her into the bedroom. "Take a shower and sleep."

Dragging her limp body, Phoebe quickly ran into the bathroom. She was afraid that if she was a second late, she'd be devoured.

Her heart continued to pound as she closed the door.

'God, after just two days apart, why does it feel like Theodore's seductive tactics have become even more effective?' she thought.

She leaned against the wall to calm herself for a while before taking a shower.

The bathroom was more than twice the size of the guest bathroom, with a tub large enough to fit three or four people. It was even decorated with glittering gilded wallpaper. Due to physical and mental exhaustion, Phoebe filled the tub with water and lay in it to relax. But as the steam rose, she fell asleep right there in the tub.

After Theodore made a few phone calls outside, Phoebe still hadn't come out. He checked the time and noticed that forty minutes had passed.

He frowned and walked to the bathroom door, knocking. "Phoebe, it's been forty minutes. Don't stay in too long."
