Chapter 26
“Since we have finished eating, let’s head back,” she said with a light cough. This content © Nôv/elDr(a)m/a.Org.
Connor nodded.
On the way back, Flora could no longer resist her drowsiness and fell asleep on Connor’s shoulder.
Connor asked Moss to drive slower and more smoothly. He slightly tilted his head to look at the person resting on his shoulder
The girl looked sweet in her sleep, occasionally smacking her lips slightly parted, which was so adorable.
Ray said he was deluding himself, and perhaps it was true, but he didn’t mind as long as his girl could always stay by his side.
Connor sat up straighter trying to make Flora feel more comfortable. The girl moved her head and rubbed it against his shoulder. By the moonlight, Connor saw the glistening spot on his shoulder.
His expression cracked for a moment.
Despite his urge to move because of his cleanliness obsession, Connor remained still, maintaining the position all the way to the Irving family’s villa.
Flora hadn’t woken up, and Connor didn’t wake her.
Twenty minutes later, Flora woke up, looking dazedly out the window. Seeing her own house, she mumbled, “We’re here.”
Connor nodded.
Flora rubbed her eyes, becoming a bit more awake. She then saw the wet spot on Connor’s shoulder and her face tumed red instantly. “I’m so sorry!” she blurted out
She had drooled on him!
“Connor said softly. “It’s late. You should head back and rest.”
“You should get some rest too, Flora said as she got out of the car. Just as she was about to close the door, she stopped, leaned back into the car, and looked into Connor’s puzzled eyes. A kiss landed on his lips.
it was as light as a feather, quickly making its mark and then darting away.

Connor’s eyes tumed wide, shocked, and disbelieving. Flora just chuckled softly, “Good night, Mr. Connor.”
Then, she ran off.
Connor raised his hand, touching his lips. His heart was beating wildly. That tingling sensation, as if electrified, made him break out in
a sweat.
Flora had kissed him.
Connor felt a bit of regret for not reacting immediately. It was the first time Flora had initiated a kiss.
Flora returned to the Irving family like a cat that got the cream. Henrik happened to come out for a drink and saw her, asking, “Where have you been?”
“On a date.”
Henrik couldn’t believe his ears.
Flora took a shower and logged onto her computer. Her fingers flew over the keyboard, and the screen instantly turned black, with only one icon flashing at the top
A video call request came through, and Flora accepted.
“Baby, you’re finally online. People have been looking for you like crazy. They’re driving me insane.”
The woman’s voice carried a hint of resentment, and her exquisitely made–up face was unforgettable at first glance.
She was in a nightclub, the noise of various sounds blending together in the background. She wore a tight, red, deep V-neck dress, and her cleavage prominently displayed on the screen.
Flora, drying her still–damp hair, replied nonchalantly, “Just finished exams. Didn’t have time.”
“Ive been telling people the same, that you were busy with the exams, but they’re so annoyed they’re calling me a liar.” The woman looked at Flora’s youthful face with envy. “It’s no wonder they’re upset. Who would’ve thought Night Veil is actually a high school girl?”
Flora smiled, “Miss Crimson, stop teasing me.”
“Seriously though, are you interested in taking a job? There are a few offers, all pretty good.”
“Not Interested.” Flora waved her hand. “I’m really too busy”
