Crises in Love (Zora and Jaylan)

Chapter 250

My gaze faltered, and I was left speechless as I realized that the man holding me was none other than

Ronan. This totally threw me off!

"You... what are you doing here? You..." I stammered, full of confusion as I quietly asked him. Could it

be that he was here to eavesdrop too?

Moreover, it seemed like he had been here longer than I had. How come I had not noticed when he

came out?

Upon seeing my intense stare, Ronan simply shrugged, wrapping his arms around himself, not backing

down. "What do you think?" he asked, his voice tinged with annoyance. "You're too reckless. Don't ever NôvelDrama.Org owns all © content.

do such risky things again!"

"How was I supposed to know it was going to rain and thunder so heavily?" I argued, feeling a bit

defiant. If he could do it, why couldn't I?

"What's rain got to do with anything? Do you even know what kind of person you're dealing with?

Jerome is a lot more ruthless than you think. Curiosity killed the cat, you know?" His voice grew stern,

his face hardened.

I snorted dismissively at his words, rolling my eyes at him. Remembering the way he held me close

earlier, my cheeks inexplicably flushed. I was speechless. What the hell was this?

I was still in marriage with three children, for heaven's sake. Wasn't this practically committing a sin?

I knew the scent I had smelled earlier was familiar! We had spent so much time close to each other

back in the day, that scent was unmistakable.

"Hmph... Speaking of which, what are you doing here? Don't tell me you stumbled upon this by

accident?" I countered, before asking curiously, "Did you hear what they were saying?"

He looked at me and smirked. He leaned in closer, his hands resting on the door, trapping me against

his body. His eyes were fixed on my face, a smirk playing on his lips. "You're trembling, yet you still

dared to get close to a man. You've got quite some nerve, right?"

He continued to stare at me, his questioning gaze almost intimidating. "What if I hadn't been the one

here today? What do you think would have happened?"

I was so irritated by his words that I rolled my eyes again. When had he become so shameless? I was

still getting used to the unfamiliar face before me, yet he had the audacity to say such things.

I stared back at him, my mind racing, trying to figure out how to counter this familiar stranger.

Without warning, he leaned in and quickly pecked my nose.

Boom... My brain went blank.

I stood there, leaning against the door, staring blankly at him. He gazed back at me, our eyes locked. I

felt like I was about to lose my breath.

This had never happened before. If he had dared to do this back in the day, I... I would have followed

him to the ends of the earth, waiting for him, no matter how long it took, without any regrets. But now,

his actions had come twelve years too late. What was he trying to achieve now? This was rude!

My mind was a whirl of protest, excitement, and regret...

His eyes lit up with a passionate glow as he slowly leaned closer. His familiar scent enveloped me,

filling my nostrils.

Just when his lips were about to meet mine...
