Bab 60: More

"May I kiss you?"

[I said it!!!]

Ferdinand panicked as his thoughts slipped from his mouth before he was ready to say them.

". . ."

[She's not saying anything! What if she thought I just came here to be intimate with her and not really to discuss her travel plans?! Ah, but it's also true I badly wanted to see her so I thought of using this excuse to come and see her. But it's not like I planned to do anything. I just wanted to be with her.]

Ferdinand was reasoning with himself.

Meanwhile, Arabella was worried about something else.

'What should I do?!'

Arabella gulped nervously.

Just kissing her would be fine. But the problem was if Ferdinand would truly just kiss her. His mind was already straying as it is.

What if he asked for more?

She couldn't just reject him all the time after she said she had accepted him as her husband. That she would do her best as his wife and would try to support him.
