Chapter 66 You Really Want to Pick a Fight, Huht

Nathael chuckled, then he gently pinched her chin and passionately kissed her lips.

“You really want to pick a fight, huh?”

Maggie was taken aback. Before she could swallow the egg in her mouth, he had taken half of it. Her cheeks flushed red.

“H–Hey!”

Maggie never anticipated such a bold move from him. She felt like she was melting; even her hand holding the plate began to tremble as she suddenly felt weak.

Nathael had no intention to let her get away. He took the plate from her hand and placed it on the dining table. Without waiting for Maggie’s response, he lifted her up, pushed her against the table, and kissed her deeply.

Maggie’s breath quickened. She instinctively tried to pull back, but Nathael drew closer, leaving her with

no escape.

Perhaps sensing her tension, Nathael softened his approach, causing Maggie to relax compared to her earlier stiffness in the car.

As she gazed at his handsome face inches away from hers, her eyes involuntarily shut, and she reciprocated.

After a moment, Maggie’s phone abruptly rang, shattering the silence.

Maggie slowly opened her dazed eyes, feeling wobbly.

Only then did Nathael regain some composure. He reluctantly kissed her neck and huskily murmured, “Tastes good.”

Maggie’s eyelashes fluttered. Her eyes were hazy, and her lips were tingling and numb.

Blushing, she pushed him away. After jumping off the table hastily, she straightened her disheveled clothes and walked to the living room while casually answering the phone. “Hello.”

As she spoke, Maggie noticed her hoarse voice.
