Steal my heart by Savannah Kade

Chapter 74 Would You Like to Be My Girlfriend?

Grace was forcefully pulled out of the Royal Club by Franklin.

They went to a busy night fair. Franklin led her through the crowd holding her hand and the vendor's hawking could be heard from time to time. Grace was not accustomed to walk hand in hand with someone. But Franklin seemed to have a tenacious nature. Even if, for several times, she found some excuses to take back her hand, he would smile and hold up her hand again.

They shuttled in the night fair and the tantalizing aroma from the stalls around drifted into their noses.

Grace walked in a slow pace, but Franklin didn't urge her.

She raised her head glanced at the back of the muscular and tall man who was holding her hand... Franklin didn't urge her to walk quicker; plus, Grace even noticed that he was slowing down his pace secretly Usually, a night fair would attract a large number of people every night. Since today was weekend, there were even more people, and among them, there were many couples.

In the milling crowd, a handsome man was walking slowly and hand in hand with a plain woman.

This was naturally a combination that would attract people's attention.

Grace subconsciously wanted to dodge the gazes from the people who were studying her... She hated such kind of gaze very much.

Could you please don't look at me?

Could you please don't look at me with that kind of gaze?

Those gazes seemed to penetrate through her fresh and bones.

Could you please...

"Let go of my hand! Let me go!" Grace desperately struggled to cast off his hand, "Mr. Cordon, let go of me! Please!"

"Please!"

She roared desperately and huskily with all her might.

Her wrist was red because of the fierce struggle, "Please..." Her voice was finally tinged with a trace of plead after the hysterical roar.

Grace looked at Franklin, and Franklin also turned around to look at her. Suddenly, Franklin let go of her hand. But before Grace could heave a sigh of relief, Franklin held up her hand again. But this time, he held her hand more tightly. His warmth and comfort transferred from his palm to Grace's palm.

"Don't be afraid of it. Don't care about them." As Franklin was speaking, he suddenly pulled Grace closer to himself and then hugged Grace tightly. He then raised his head and glanced around, "Damn! What's the point of looking at us? Haven't you seen a loving couple hanging out together?"

With Franklin's loud reproach, most of the passers-by shifted their gazes.

"Let's go. Let's enjoy our meal." Franklin held Grace by her shoulders in an overbearing manner and led her into an alley. There was a beef noodles restaurant in the alley. The decoration of the beef noodles restaurant was not as exquisite as that of restaurants outside the alley, and even appeared to be obsolete and aged. Franklin then led Grace into the restaurant.

"Noah, two bowls of beef noodles, please."
