The Killer Queen by Noella Briony

Chapter 219

Palmer’s voice carried a deep, magnetic quality, blending seamlessly with the strumming of the guitar.

In Palmer’s hands, the classical guitar produced tones of dignified mellowness, akin to a gentleman softly reciting verses of poetry The piece, neither overly long nor too brief, revealed Palmer’s limited familiarity with musical instruments, his technique somewhat unpolished. Yet, as his long, smooth fingers caressed the strings, bathed in sunlight streaming through the office windows, their distinct knuckles glinted like gold.

As the melody ended, Noella felt her heart flutter in time with the guitar strings.

“My first time playing. I’ll perform better for you when I get the chance.*

Noella averted her gaze, lowering her eyes to conceal her emotions. “Don’t play until your hand is healed. And… your left hand seems quite deft”

If she remembered correctly, he was using his left hand earlier in the office when he wrote with her pen.

A few annotations had appeared on the financial statements of the music store, all circled by Palmer, pointing out the bugs in the reports.

With such proficiency, how could he have the nerve to ask her to feed him this morning?

That look of contentment on Sexton’s face when he saw them earlier now made Noella’s cheeks burn with embarrassment.

She stared coldly at Palmer. “What are you, a toddler?”

She didn’t need anyone to feed her when she was three, let alone engage in such nonsensical antics.

Palmer set aside his guitar and leaned in close to Noella, their proximity close enough for their breaths to mingle.

“If I were three, could I kiss you, Noella?”

Noella stood up abruptly, fists clenched. “Shameless! Palmer, have you no decency?”

Watching Noella storm out of the office, the door slamming shut with a thud, a pleased smile played on Palmer’s lips.
