Chapter 194

“…I call the shots?”

Janet lowered her voice.

She stared right into his eyes, “…You will do whatever I have in mind?”

His breathing became rough. His gaze was intense.

“Yes,” he murmured hoarsely, his lips only an inch away from hers. “… Anything.”

“Well then…‘

She placed a hand on his firm chest, feeling his quickened heartbeat.

“I want us to go into the packhouse now, head upstairs, back to our rooms, get into the bed, and go to sleep.”

He froze.

Janet couldn’t help but burst out laughing–the look on his face!

“It isn’t fair!” he protested, “I want the rein back in my hand!

“Too late. You already handed that to me. I call the shots here.” she giggled, “And now I am asking you to go to bed like a big boy.”

He stared at her laughing face.

“When was the last time he made you laugh like this?” he asked abruptly.

A smile froze on her lips.

“…There are happy times,” she said after a pause.

“You are lying to yourself.” he said deeply, “You know that the only thing he has ever done to you is to hurt you.”

Janet lapsed into silence.

“They say that all women enjoy the company of men who can make them laugh. But they always end up with the men who can make them cry. Is it true in your case, Janet?”

Janet took a deep breath and forced out a smile, “What are you talking about? That is nonsense.”

“Good.” Westin cupped her cheeks with both of his hands, “Then don’t give him a chance to hurt you anymore. You will have me to protect you in the future.”

Janet couldn’t look him in the eyes, “…It is really getting late, Westin. Let’s call it a day.”

“Fine.”

Westin let go of her, “You go ahead. I will enjoy the wind breeze a little longer.”

Janet nodded and went into the packhouse.
