Chapter 27

The air in the lift was suffocating.

Finally, the door opened with a click. Eliza sprinted out frantically.

“Achoo!”

She sneezed loudly the moment she reached outside. Before she knew it, it was already late at night. Standing in the cool breeze, she was shivering from head to toe.

She looked ridiculous standing in front of the entrance while cladding in cartoon-printed rabbit pajamas, which attracted a lot of attention from the pedestrians. In hopes that she could hide her outfit from view, Eliza hugged herself and forced herself to walk towards the parking lot.

After a few steps. someone grabbed her hoodie cap from behind.

Before she could turn around, everything went black.

Beau had thrown a jacket on top of her head and said, “Wear this.”

Shoving the jacket away, she looked at his tall and wide back. “I don’t need it. I’m fine.”

Beau did not stop walking ahead. “If you got sick, the children will scold me.”

Eliza pursed her lips and put on his clothes obediently.

The moment she put on the jacket, the scent of peppermint watted into her nose, which overwhelmed her olfactory senses.

For some reason, her cheeks felt slightly hot.

Since there was no traffic, Beau sped off into the night by his car.

On the way back, she would occasionally peek at the rearview mirror from the back seat.

The way he was focusing on the road looked so sexy and alluring. She could see the defined lines of his facial feature.

Eliza’s heart skipped a beat when she realized just how attractive he looked.

One thing was for certain.
