Mr. Sallow's Sinful Wife by Maisie Chasey

Chapter 20 He Was Incredibly Sexy

His warm breath instantly carried a scorching enchantment that touched Nancy’s nose, lips, and

entire face.

Her entire face flushed red. She grabbed his tie with one hand and suddenly didn’t know what to do.

Nancy’s heart was beating fast.

“You… stand up straight,” she said. Her face flushed, trying to divert her attention.

“Are you sure?”

Nicholas’ voice sounded just like usual, but Nancy found it incredibly gentle and seductive in the current situation.

Especially since his lips were still close to the tip of her nose, warm and inviting, distracting her to the point where she couldn’t even focus on tying the tie.

“I’m sure.”

“Good.”

He responded with a nod, and in an instant, Nicholas stood up straight.

Nancy was speechless.

Her face turned even redder.

It was so embarrassing.

When they spent much time together, how did she not notice that Nicholas was taller than her? With him standing up straight, she could barely reach his tie and had to stand on her tiptoes.

It was because she had a baby bump in her belly. Nancy had been very cautious these days, wearing flat shoes.

So, the height difference between them became even more noticeable.

And today, for some reason, she couldn’t seem to get this tie right, no matter how many times she

Although her skills weren’t top-notch, it wasn’t supposed to be this difficult!

Nancy was anxious, and Nicholas’ laughter rang in her ears, “Who was it that just told me to stand up?”
