The Barrister's Love in Town

Chapter 177 Face Flushed, Heart Pounding

Elias’ handsome face flushed with embarrassment, his brows slightly furrowed as he gazed at Amanda’s delicate face. His voice was deep and hoarse as he said, “Are you still not letting go? How long are you planning to hold it?”

“…” She quickly released her grip and withdrew it from the bathtub. She looked at her hand, still tingling. from the heat. “You know what… You can come out on your own.” With that, without even turning back, she swiftly left the bathroom. If she stayed longer, she felt like her face would turn completely red.

This time, Elias did not trouble her further and closed the bathroom door after she left. He casually leaned against the bathtub edge, using his hand for support, and stepped out of the tub. He picked up a nearby towel and wrapped it around his waist.

As he lowered his gaze to his waist, the spot Amanda had touched just moments ago, a smirk formed at the corner of his mouth.

In the bedroom, Amanda sat in front of the vanity, her heart racing. She caught a glimpse of her reflection and noticed her incredibly flushed face, resembling a ripe tomato. Did Elias notice how red my face was just now? It’s so embarrassing…

She reminded herself that she was not inexperienced, having given birth to a child. There was no reason. to blush over accidentally touching him in that area, right? Right?

Even Amanda could not understand why she blushed like a young, innocent girl. There was always someone in this world who could make her red and her heart race, just like a young girl in love. That person was probably Elias.

Frustration crept into her expression as she looked at her reflection in the mirror. When will I be able to move on and find a new life? When will I find another man? If I can’t forget Elias and move forward, how can I start anew?

Meanwhile, the man walked out of the bathroom, wearing only a towel around his waist. He noticed her still-red cheeks and reddened eyes and could not help but ask, “Why are your eyes red? Are you crying?”

“You jerk! Were you doing it on purpose?” She was filled with anger and had no outlet for it.

Elias looked somewhat innocent. “I was just following your instructions. I didn’t move at all. You accidentally touched it yourself. How is that my fault?
