Love's New Bloom by Simone Hastings

Chapter 125 Perfect Fit

Erin’s slap brought back some rationality in Simon.

Strands of his hair hung limply in front of his eyes, and the side of his lace that was slapped had a slight reddish hue. Simon forced a smile and said, “That was a good slap

After saying that, he took two steps back and slowly turned around. He then walked toward the window. Simon leaned his arm against the window frame, but it was unclear what he was thinking. Erin stood where she was, watching his lonely and desolate figure. The raging emotions within her seemed to have been doused with a bucket of cold water, and she began to calm down.

Both of them fell into silence, and after about ten minutes, Erin decided that she couldn’t stay any longer and started to leave.

At that moment, Simon turned his head and said, “I’m sorry. I was too impulsive just now… I… I shouldn’t have thrown your phone out of

the window.”

Erin, with her back still turned to him, thought of her phone sinking to the bottom of the lake. She felt a flicker of anger in her heart. But when she thought about how Simon lost control over himself after hearing that recording, she felt guilty for being so cruel toward him.

She considered them even. Her phone would serve as a punishment to her for telling on Megan and getting involved with their private”

affairs.

Seeing that she still hadn’t turned around, Simon felt a trace of unease and guilt in his heart. He apologized once more. “I’m sorry!”

Finally, Erin responded, “You’ve already apologized. Let’s forget about the phone-”

“I’m apologizing for my earlier behavior. I don’t know what came over me, I “His cheeks became even redder.

Only then did Erin realize he was referring to the kiss earlier.

Even now, Erin could still feel the burning sensation on her lips. When Simon forcefully kissed her, he was actually venting his anger and

frustrations. Unfortunately, she became the outlet for his release.

“Simon, I hope you won’t tell anyone about what happened today!” Erin turned around and glanced at him warningly.

Her words made him laugh at his sorry state. “Are you referring to me being cuckolded by Megan? Or are you talking about the fact that!

on her lips, and there was a slight tint of blood. His eyes darkened instantly, recalling the scene where he’d cornered her against the wall and kissed her. Simon’s body was filled with restless heat that moved around rapidly. His brain began to constantly recall Erin’s tender and pink lips, and he felt his throat go dry as if he was parched
