บท 269: 269-His Flirting Isn’t Subtle

Helanie:

My eyes widened, and a yelp escaped my lips, which I quickly covered to avoid making a sound. However, before her lips could crash against his, Maximus realized what she was up to. Swiftly, he placed his hands on her shoulders and pushed her back.

"Charlotte, have you lost your mind?" he sounded irritated, but she just started laughing loudly, pointing a finger at him.

"Oh my Goddess, look at you. It's so easy to tease you. Of course, I wasn't going to do anything. If I wanted to, I would have done it. Come on, now let me cook for you," she said. I was stunned to see how quickly she recovered from his rejection. It didn't even seem to faze her.

She acted nonchalant, even more confident now.

"Say it. What are you craving right now?" she demanded, stepping back into his path and leaning over him again. He was pressed against the counter, leaning back and away from her.
