No More Waiting, She Chooses Love

Chapter 332



Ernest gently nudged my forehead with his, whispering, "But I miss you, miss you so much..."

He took my hand and placed it against his warm chest.

I quickly pulled back, hiding my hands behind me. Seeing my panicked look, he chuckled softly, "Don't you want to?"

"No, not at all. I'm tired, I just want to sleep," I pushed him away, fumbling for my keys.

But the more flustered I became, the harder it was to find them. Eventually, Ernest took them out for me.

"My little fluster bunny," he murmured right next to my ear.

My whole body felt warm, as if his heat was transferring to me.

Ernest unlocked the door for me, but just as I was about to step in, he tugged at me, "Really not letting me in?"

"No, no way," I couldn't even bring myself to look at him.

But as soon as I said that, Ernest squeezed in. I glared at him. "Ernest."

"I won't stay long," he said, making a round through the rooms and checking the windows, before finally coming back to me. "All checked, the doors and windows are secure, nothing's amiss."
