Angela POV

Sean released my hand, finally ending mir intimate moment, I found myself oddly disappointed at the loss of contact, though I tried not to show it.

"Why do you look so disappointed? Sean asked, a teasing smile playing on his lips. Is it because I stopped? Are you disappointed?"

Victoria's eyes lit up, though she tried to maintain her composure. was thinking of suggesting that very thing, but I was concerned you might not want to be separated from them for too long. I didn't want to ask directly. Since you've suggested it, that would be wonderful."

"Of course," I agreed.

*Excellent. As long as you approve, I'll arrange everything, Victoria shid, her happiness evident as she excused herself to prepare lunch.

After she left, Sean studied my expression, seemingly noticing my hesitation.

"If you're reluctant, you don't have to agree," he said quietly. "I can the bad guy here,
