The Broken-hearted She And The Icy He

Chapter 48 You Blushed Like | Proposed

Simon thought Lily would keep unbuttoning his shirt, groping him, maybe even go further.

He had mentally prepared himself for it.

What he didn’t expect was that, after undoing just one button and brushing her fingertip over his collarbone, she

actually stopped.

What the heck did that mean? His flushed face darkened again, a deep shade of ink.

But when he noticed her eyes locked so intently on his chest, his expression softened slightly.

Was she too drunk to control her fingers? Couldn’t undo the rest of the buttons?

He lowered his face, cast her a cold and disdainful glance, and muttered, “Just this once.”

my clothes!” “From now on, stay away from me! Don’t touch me-and don’t even think about taking off

Even as he spat out those icy words, the pale skin of his neck flushed crimson.

He drew a deep breath, turned his face away from her, and awkwardly began unbuttoning the rest of his shirt-

one button at a time.

He looked both annoyed and flustered.

“Lily, are you out of your damn mind? What the heck are you trying to do tonight? Who told you to touch there?”

Simon couldn't believe it. The second he had undone all the buttons, Lily’s brazen hand dropped to his belt

buckle.

Her soft fingertips, smoother than the finest silk, brushed across his abs. He was almost certain she was trying

to...

With his face now burning red, he glanced toward the hallway security camera and hoarsely warned, “Not here!”

“You're a woman-how are you this shameless, this utterly disgraceful?”

As soon as the words left his mouth, it was as if he’d been wrapped in the red haze of sunset-or thrown into the

heart of a burning maple forest.

He knew he ought to pull her hand away.

But instead, a thought crept in-if her touch really revealed everything, maybe she still found something

in him to want.

His breath burned, hot and uneven.

He was burning up with shand helplessness, as if flames were licking at his skin.

Frozen in place for a long, awkward moment, he finally opened his mouth and mumbled with clumsy

reluctance, “If you really have to go inside the room. | can’t get caught on security footage-I'd never live it

down...”

But she seemed genuinely in a rush...

Simon's bottom line began to slide. “If you absolutely must do this here... it's not impossible. I'll just make a call,

have someone shut off the cameras. Then you can-"

Lily suddenly snatched the pearl earring that had landed on his belt buckle, stepping back quickly to put

distance between them.

“Finally found it!”

The blush vanished from Simon's face in an instant, replaced by a rigid, awkward scowl.

So all that, her unbuttoning my shirt, touching my collarbone, messing with his belt buckle, wasn’t about that at

all? She'd just been looking for her damn earring? What the heck was that supposed to mean?

“Lily1”

Simon grabbed her left wrist tightly, as if demanding an explanation.

But he couldn't even figure out what explanation he wanted.

Lily still didn’t say a word to him.

She fumbled at her earlobe a few times before finally getting the pearl earring back in place.

She felt like something was blocking her path, and it was pissing her off. She yanked her arm free and gave him

a hard shove.

“Good boys don’t loiter in doorways!”

Exhausted and half-asleep, she didn’t even check to see if he moved. She wobbled as she fumbled with her

keycard and stumbled into the room.

Good boys don’t loiter in doorways... Wait, is she callinga good boy? His face turned even darker, like

someone had wiped out his whole family.

-He didn’t want to look at Lily’s infuriating face another second.

But when he saw her barely able to stand, collapsing after just two steps, he scowled and followed her in.

Lily’s body was a contradiction.

Her balance was shot, but somehow she still moved pretty fast.

Before Simon could help her, she pushed herself off the ground, took a few stumbling steps like she was walking

on stilts, then flopped onto the bed and didn’t move again.

“Lily...”

Simon frowned deeply.

He didn’t like meddling in other people’s business.

But seeing her lying motionless on the bed, he couldn't just

walk away.

The moment he looked down, his eyes landed on a stunning face.

“Hideous.”

Simon shot her a look full of extrdisdain.

And yet, for sreason, he couldn’t look away. She was sleeping deeply, peacefully.

Her long lashes brushed against her lower lids, casting delicate shadows-she looked achingly innocent.
