Love's New Bloom by Simone Hastings

Chapter 79 Jealousy

Erin’s shriek made Sean immediately turn his head away, and when he saw that the light had changed to green, he stepped on the gas to continue driving.

Erin then turned to face May and started fumbling with her shirt buttons to cover her chest up. With her heart rate still erratic, she thought that it was just her luck that one of her shirt buttons had gone missing.

Out of frustration, she cussed under her breath.

Why’d something this embarrassing have to happen now…

Sean could sense her panic, so he subconsciously turned his face to look at her. “You’d better not look over here!” she shouted.

This prompted him to turn his head again before letting out a soft cough and asking, “What’s wrong?

“I lost a shirt button…” she grumbled.

As soon as he heard her reply, he tried his best to suppress the urge to smirk and said with the straightest face possible, Don’t worry, I know what to do…”

He then started driving with one hand, as he used his right hand to reach to the backseat to retrieve his dark blue summer suit jacket. “You can cover up with my jacket,” he suggested.

Erin looked a little hesitant at first as she stared at the piece of clothing in his hands, but after considering her own disheveled appearance, she decided to just wear his jacket instead.

The next twenty minutes in the car went by in an uncomfortable silence.

Sean tried hard to get rid of all the dirty thoughts in his head, but that one scene would always linger in his mind. In fact, the memory even seemed to appear more vividly now the more he tried to forget…

Erin was so embarrassed that her face had stayed red the whole time. She couldn’t help but lament how unlucky she was today!

After recalling all the times she’d embarrassed herself in front of Sean, she reckoned this was the third time!

“I don’t think we gel well with one another, Sean, so let’s never meet up with one another again! If you happen to run into me again in the future, just pretend that you didn’t see me!” Erin announced, sulking.

Her words brought him back to his senses, and this made him raise his voice. “But why? It’s not like it’s my fault that all those unlucky incidents occurred to you, so don’t you think that you’re being a bit unfair to me right now?”
