Her Hidden Crowns (Suzanne and Austin)

Chapter 343

Suzanne furrowed her brows, gripping the sheets a little tighter. The sexual tension hanging in the air slowly dissipated.

She looked at Austin. She had so many things she wanted to say to him, but she didn't know where to begin.

Austin tucked her under the covers while smiling at her. "There's a gala coming up, and I need a date. I wonder if you're free, Mrs. Hall?"

If he didn't change the topic now, he guessed that Suzanne would not have a good night's sleep.

Suzanne was a little stunned. This was the first time he was offering to formally bring her to such events as his date. They previously had a deal not to announce their relationship publicly.

At that moment, she didn't want to refuse him. She smiled and replied, "Sure. Just let me know the time and date."

Although she could not be what Austin hoped for her to be right now, she would have to play the role of Mrs. Hall to the best she could. She was not going to cause him any trouble on that front.

Austin had done so much for her. Attending a gala with him was just a small way of paying back.

He pulled Suzanne in a little closer and said in her ear with a chuckle, "Alright then. It's late. Let's go to bed."

They cuddled closer together, moving past the awkward moment between them a moment ago.
