Chapter 53 The Glory

What he said made Erin let out a cold chuckle. “Chandler, won’t my presence here annoy you?”

Hearing her mockery, Chandler got up and walked to her back. Bending over with his hands propped on both sides of her, he brought his face close to her neck and smiled. “It’s none of your concern.*

As she heard his magnetic voice, his breath fell on her neck, and Erin shuddered and dared not to move lest they would touch.
