Chapter 71 Unanticipated Apology

Erin could not rival his strength. The results of her resistance were always the same. She drifted in and out of a trance in her half–awakened state. At the peak of her climax, Erin’s brain emptied, as though she was floating on the clouds.

She was extremely conflicted. Try as she might to shield her heart against Chandler’s charms, her body had completely. accepted the feeling of his body against hers. Why else would she jerk awake the second lan started touching her?

And yet, when it came to Chandler, it was only when he had her that she awakened. Deep down, part of her had to admit that the fit of his body against hers was a perfect match.

Seeing that she was weak and powerless, Chandler leaned down and whispered in her ear, “I’m sorry, Erin.”

She was immediately wide awake. For a second, Erin wondered if she had been hallucinating. “What?” she asked, surprised.

Sweat beaded on Chandler’s forehead. From where she lay, his perfectly balanced features were so stunning that Erin found

herself lost in wonder.

Chandler winked at her seductively and repeated, “I want to apologize to you.”

Despite the ridiculousness of the situation, she was shocked that he would actually apologize to her. Yet, Erin couldn’t help but ask, “What are you apologizing for?”

Chandler’s gaze was entirely focused when he looked at her and replied seriously, “I shouldn’t have choked you. And that incident with Claire–I want you to know that I knew all along that it was her who framed you, but I had chosen to prioritize stabilizing her emotions at that time over your feelings. I shouldn’t have asked you to apologize to her. I’m so sorry, Erin.”

The long–awaited apology drove Erin into silent tears. Chandler wiped away her tears with the back of his thumb. Softly, he asked, “Why are you crying?”

Erin was unprepared for the tenderness he was showing her now. “Why are you apologizing to me-” she choked out.

“I realized I was in the wrong. Naturally, it’s only right for me to apologize. You told me that I didn’t know how to respect you. Is it too late for me to learn to respect you now?” His voice had always been melodious, but coupled with a humbled attitude and deep sincerity, it was enough to make any woman fall in love.
