Chapter 131: Crimson Cartel

Ethan was being extra careful, sneaking glances at Blair who was lying on her side on the bed, scrolling through her phone just like any other day.

But the lingering soft touch on his lips was a vivid reminder that they had indeed just kissed.

He felt oddly about it.

Their relationship had always been that of childhood friends, more like buddies really. And now, when he thought of her as a brother, she seemed to want something more.

But Blair's kiss was brief, over before he could even grasp her feelings.

"Am I an idiot? I already have a girlfriend."

Ethan closed his eyes, surprised that a simple kiss had thrown him off so much.

He tossed and turned in bed.

"Do you care about that kiss just now?" Blair's voice came through, her body now turned to face him.

Her hair was a bit messy, and her usually androgynous, handsome face seemed to carry an indescribable feminine allure at that moment.
