Chapter 568: Adrian Law’s Thoughtfulness

The man laughed wickedly and indulgently, his meaningful gaze making Cecilia Vaughn’s heart skip a beat.

Her heart pounded like a deer running wild.

The indoor air seemed to ignite with something, passionate as fire, intoxicating as smoke.

"What nonsense are you talking about! How could I possibly be willing to do that with you in such a place..."

Cecilia Vaughn couldn’t continue.

Her heart was throbbing like thunder.

She couldn’t help but shrink back, afraid Adrian Law would hear her heart beating.

This issue was truly shameful.

This man always managed to challenge her understanding.

Yet she felt completely helpless against him.

...

Adrian Law leaned in, his flawless handsome face magnified in Cecilia Vaughn’s view. Perhaps because his features were too exquisite, Cecilia only felt as if fireworks exploded in her mind.

"Cecilia, lying is not good, why don’t I verify it?"

The man’s fingertips brushed over the girl’s back ever so slightly.

Her sweater had somehow been tossed aside by Adrian Law.

Adrian Law had long, elegant fingers, perfect for playing piano. At this moment, they were playing over Cecilia Vaughn’s back like musical notes, with a particular rhythm.

Cecilia Vaughn let out a whisper of disbelief.

"Mmm... don’t touch..."

"So, you admit you were lying?"

Adrian Law stared intently at the girl, eyes blazing.

The flame in his eyes seemed poised to consume the person in them entirely.

...

Cecilia Vaughn was so overwhelmed with embarrassment that she couldn’t admit she had ever been moved before.

To her, it was always improper.

"No, I wasn’t! Don’t slander me, okay? Do you think everyone is as crazy as you?"

"Crazy?"

Adrian Law paused, deliberately drawing out the pronunciation of these four words.

"Cecilia, I can show you what truly being crazy means."

Adrian Law said, the curve of his lips growing deeper. He wickedly extended a long arm, pulling the girl into his embrace.

Lowering his head, he took a deep taste.

He savored the sweetness and fragrance from the girl’s lips. Though not as urgent as before, this gentle seduction was all the more irresistible. With the intentionally slow kiss, Cecilia Vaughn only felt her lips begin to swell.

"Let go of me... I’m running out of breath."

"No... I’ll just give you some air..."

Adrian Law, with his handsome face beside the girl’s ear, blew warm air constantly into her ear.

"You’re the one who called me crazy. If I don’t act a bit more outrageous, how could I live up to your evaluation? Right, Mrs. Law?"

...

How could there be such a shameless man!

Cecilia Vaughn was exasperated and amazed.

Yet when the man approached, the almost scalding heat of his body felt like it might ignite hers as well. Cecilia Vaughn only felt herself heating up with an indescribable intensity.

She couldn’t resist.

Nor did she have the strength to resist.

She could only be dragged down by Adrian Law, falling into this alluring joy.

...

The man kissed her firmly, unwilling to let his hand fall.

Cecilia Vaughn felt her ankle being grasped.

Her toes were particularly fair, having rarely seen sunlight, making Cecilia Vaughn a bit paler than most people. If it weren’t for being at Stellerton University for a few months and getting just a tiny bit "tanner," she might have an almost sickly jade-like pallor.

Now, it’s just the right amount.

Adrian Law was tracing her toes.

Making the girl involuntarily start to giggle.

"Don’t poke there, I’m ticklish!"

"Then are you willing to tell the truth?"

"The truth is I don’t want to!"

Cecilia Vaughn was defiantly persistent.

"Ah... no... don’t squeeze there, it really tickles! I’m going to get angry... boo hoo..."

Cecilia Vaughn initially wanted to laugh as she was being tickled, but feeling Adrian Law pressing down heavily, she understood the feeling of wanting to cry but having no tears left.

...

Smelling the man’s clear and pleasant scent like fresh bamboo in the air, Cecilia Vaughn’s emotions were in turmoil.

Her body had long since become weak and uncomfortable due to Adrian Law’s manipulations.

"Don’t torture me like this."

"What do you want me to do, then? Cecilia, just tell me directly?"

Adrian Law intentionally mimicked Cecilia Vaughn’s tone, yet it didn’t seem forced at all, adding instead a hint of mischievous wickedness.

Cecilia Vaughn wanted to pinch Adrian Law several times, but she felt so uncomfortable, knowing the rough, calloused hand that lingered over her toes made her even more annoyed.

More than that, she felt embarrassed.

How could she admit, that she too was actually savoring the pleasure?

Such matters were not the privilege of men alone.

However, Cecilia Vaughn’s nature was relatively conservative, and she found it embarrassing to say it out loud.

...

Just as Cecilia Vaughn was about to reach her limit, Adrian Law, unable to pry open her stubborn mouth, finally chuckled softly.

"Little liar."

The man’s eyes sparkled with cunning and mischief. He eschewed her hands, opting to tie Cecilia Vaughn up using his tie.

"Hey, what are you doing?!"

Cecilia Vaughn was shocked, speechless.

"You can’t tie me up!"

Cecilia Vaughn finally realized she should struggle free, but Adrian Law was only toying with her by tying her up playfully. However, the more Cecilia pulled, the tighter the loose knots became.

Seeing Cecilia Vaughn getting upset, and even a bit aggrieved, Adrian Law sensed something was wrong, quickly untying her hands.

"Cecilia, I’m sorry, it’s my fault, I shouldn’t have tied you like that."

Looking at the man’s handsome, refined face, most of Cecilia Vaughn’s anger dissipated.

Ah, a face-lover really is hopeless.

Cecilia Vaughn scolded herself inwardly, biting her lip, and finally took the initiative to climb up and offer her lips to him.

To Adrian Law’s surprised eyes.

Their lips and teeth intertwined.

The man’s intense masculine scent seemed to fill the entire space.

Just as the atmosphere was heating up, Cecilia Vaughn felt a heavy pain in her abdomen.

"Wait a minute... I think my stomach doesn’t feel well..."

Cecilia Vaughn spoke, feeling as if something was spreading at the location of her legs.

Adrian Law saw Cecilia Vaughn’s previously flushed face turn pale, and though the arrow was nocked, reason prevailed over his body’s impulses.

"Cecilia, what’s wrong?"

The man’s handsome brows furrowed, seeing Cecilia Vaughn holding her stomach, he suddenly remembered something very important.

"Are you about to start your period?"

"..."

Cecilia Vaughn was taken aback.

Her mind was a mess.

Her periods didn’t follow a regular pattern like other girls’. Her body tended to be colder, so sometimes her periods came once a month, sometimes once every month and a half, and could even be delayed for two months.

Cecilia Vaughn hadn’t had time to think it through, the man’s expression had already become serious, refusing any objection as he draped his coat over her.

"Come on, let me take you to clean up first."
