Chapter 692: 433 Ashamed to the point of wishing to faint, you care about me! (2 more Chapters)_3

Her rental room was so small that she had barely taken two steps when, in the next instant, her arm was pulled and tugged. By the time she realized what was happening, her back was against the wall, with half of her body already enveloped in his embrace.

The man’s fingertips were rough as they grasped her wrist, gently caressing it, eliciting a sensation both ticklish and numbing.

Her willingness to explain definitely meant she cared.
