Her Precious Baby

Her heart was racing as she gulped.

At that moment, she felt as if someone had discovered the hole in her heart and filled it up. “I… don’t understand what you mean by that, Mr. Golding. What prompted you to come to that conclusion?”

His darkened eyes gradually burned with passion as he stared at the woman who was hanging her head. Then, he grabbed Angeline’s arm and pulled her into his embrace.

“Raise your head and look at me.” There was a tinge of suppressed eagerness in his cold voice.

Frightened by his tone, she slowly lifted her head and met the unfathomable gaze in his eyes. “Mr. Golding…”

“Call me Evander,” Evander said teasingly with his deep voice as though a budding flame had come to life in the darkest of nights.

In response, she blushed so hard that her ears turned red. Glancing away, she responded, “No matter what, I care for Floretta. I simply hope she’ll grow up healthy and happy with no personal feelings involved.”

“Why are you so eager to explain yourself? Are you afraid I’ll do something to you?” He continued fixing his gaze on her.

Obviously, Angeline was unable to resist his teasing. Her mind was scrambling with chaos.

She never expected someone as solemn as Evander to be so good at teasing people.

“Look at you. Are you playing hard to get? It sure does seem like it to me.” Once again, he took one step closer to her, his expression unchanging.

Panicking, she retreated backward until her leg accidentally hit a nearby cabinet. That caused her to lose her balance, and as a result, she fell backward.

She reflexively stretched out her hand and grabbed the closest thing to her to break her fall.

When Angeline saw it was Evander’s collar that she was holding, her eyes widened. In response, she let go of his collar when she collapsed.
