Mason came over for the sole purpose of confirming that Janet was fine.
However, his instinct told him that something must have happened to her in the past few days.
Fortunately, she seemed fine standing in front of him right now.
Janet did not know where to position her small hands, so she frowned lightly. “Are you okay?”
Usually, it was rare for her to show her concern for others. That was one of the things that made her realize that this man had a special place in her heart.
That special feeling she had was different from what she felt for her other male friends, such as Dexter, Tyler, Luke, Leo and Lee.
“Do you still remember the bangle I gave you previously?” Mason asked suddenly.
“Mm-hmm.” Janet nodded, and she lifted her hand while shaking it. “It won’t come off,” she sounded slightly annoyed.
Mason couldn’t help but smile when he saw her pouty red lips, and he was especially delighted. “It can’t come off.”
“Why is that?” Janet looked at him.
She was even more confused now.
Two days ago, my organs were injured after the impact from Damien’s Octago. Today, Mason is telling me that his chest hurts. My instincts are telling me that it might be related to the bangle. Is it possible that this man is able to sense it whenever I am injured? Where did this bangle with such a strange color come from?
Just when she was deep in her thoughts, the man’s eyes twinkled with a smile. “I’m not sure either!” He flashed her a charming smile.
Janet just nodded. When she was about to shift her hands away from his body, Mason bent down to kiss her full, but slightly cool cheek.
Janet looked up to glance at Mason, who had a smooth and strong jawline, and a pair of refined, thin lips. He also had a tall nose paired with a devilish gaze and long eyelashes.
Just when she was staring at his face, she blushed deeply suddenly. It’s broad daylight, and I’m having a visual and sensory overload.
Seeing her reaction, Mason smiled. After that, he cocked his head to kiss her lips, and he smiled at her mischievously.
Janet was completely stunned by these two sudden kisses. She was so embarrassed that her eyes shot wide open.
She then rolled her eyes at Mason. I will not sink to the Devil’s level. Otherwise, I’ll be the one being taken advantage of.
Nevertheless, she was still annoyed that he had kissed her without warning, so she kneed his stomach.
Mason was quick to respond, and he held onto her knee. He moved swiftly, and he pinned Janet down with his tall figure.
“Wh-What are you doing?” Janet exclaimed while trying to speak quietly.
I am still packing my luggage. There is no way of salvaging my reputation if Grandma Jade, who is just opposite my room, sees me in this compromising position.
Mason smiled evilly at her, and he nuzzled her fair and slender neck with the tip of his nose. Such a familiar scent that makes me feel at ease…
“Babe, I’ve been having trouble sleeping!”
The man’s deep and sexy voice sounded as if he was accusing her while complaining about the situation. He nuzzled his face against Janet’s neck.
“You…” Janet was at a loss for words and she did not know how to respond.
If he has been distracted due to the bangle, it’s true that I am partly responsible for it…
On one hand, Janet was not used to having too much physical contact with another human being, but on the other hand, she was entranced by this man.
In the end, despite her hesitations, Janet caved in.
“In that case, you should rest for a while.” After saying that, she wriggled out of the man’s grip to continue packing her things.
The man’s tightly shut eyes opened abruptly. His almond-shaped eyes shone, and it was so bright that it dazzled under the sunlight. Then, he took Janet’s pillow to inhale her scent, and he spoke with a boyish charm, “It has your scent.”
Janet froze halfway through packing her things. She couldn’t pinpoint exactly what she was feeling right now, but it felt as though they were two pieces of magnets, attracting one to another.
Mason was feeling slightly tired, and so he lay on Janet’s small bed to sleep.
The entire room and pillow wafted with Janet’s scent, and it helped Mason sleep soundly.
