“Baby, when we get to bed, you have to call me that too.” Renee snapped out of her daze, pushing against him, though she only managed to move his head back slightly,

“Marcelo, are you playing with me? You’re not really drunk, are you?”

Her eyes sparkled with beauty as she gazed at him.

After their lingering kiss, her eyes glowed with the lingering affection.

He chuckled involuntarily.

Perhaps influenced by the alcohol, his usually reserved demeanor now showed a hint of playfulness, reminding Renee of how care–free he could be.

“Marcelo, so you’re not really drunk!” Renee remarked, slightly irritated.

She had forgotten that Jason had once mentioned Marcelo hardly ever got drunk.

“How could I get drunk with you around?” He pressed her against the car door, his voice low and husky.

What if she got taken while he was drunk? Who would he blame then?

Even through their clothes, the touch conveyed the other’s presence, soothing the brain under alcohol’s influence.

It felt like a craving for touch.

“Marcelo, you’re suffocating me!” She shoved him back; he was too close, his words swirling with the

smell of alcohol.

“You’re so sensitive,” He remarked, giving a slight nod as his head brushed against her neck intermittently.

“Your beard feels scratchy.” Marcelo ran his hand over his chin, there was a light stubble, hardly noticeable, but Renee’s sensitive skin made it feel prickly.

From accompanying Renee to the hospital, then hurrying to Hagua, and straight to the company for a meeting…He had been too occupied to even shave.

He appeared to enjoy deliberately brushing his stubble against her neck.

“It’s too hard. Stop rubbing it against me,” Renee complained, turning her head away from him.

“Oh?” The man smirked, meeting Renee’s gaze. “What’s hard? Where is it rubbing?”

It took Renee a moment to realize what he was referring to.
