The Unwilling CEO’s Love Game

Chatper 159

Chapter 159

Jocelyn cleared her throat, looking at the bustling street around them. “You know, with so many people around, you might want to consider keeping up appearances.”

“I don’t care about appearances,” Melvin countered, his gaze challenging. “When have I ever been less than

human?”

“I’m not saying you’re not human. It’s just… even the most confident of men feel a bit jittery meeting their girlfriend’s parents for the first time.” Jocelyn’s hand rested against his chest. “You’re pretty down-to-earth right now. That’s a compliment, by the way.”

Melvin snorted. “Or a complaint?”

“Wouldn’t dare.”

He gently took her chin in his hand. “I’ve forgiven you for cozying up to Harrison, for the photos, for meeting his parents, and even for that overnight stay. Can’t you be a little more generous?”

So that was it. He’d been waiting for the right moment to bring it up all along.

Jocelyn glared at him. “I’ve been with you for more than three years. Can’t you see through my feelings for you? Don’t you have trust in me?”

“Do you trust me, then?” Melvin’s eyes dropped to her lips, which were pursed in frustration. His voice turned husky. “Can you take me to your parents?”

Jocelyn bit her lip. She tried to play it cool, but Melvin was already leaning in close.

His lips hovered a mere breath away from hers.

“Yep,” was all she managed in response.

At that sound, Melvin captured her lips with his own.

In the midst of the public square, he ignored the stares of passersby and savored her taste.

Jocelyn’s heart raced as she was utterly aware of his transformation.

A kiss like this? Unthinkable in the past. Even holding hands had been out of the question.

While she rejoiced in his change, a question nagged at her.

Why this sudden shift?
