Genevieve felt embarrassed to admit it, fearing her words might enchant him and make him lose control.
After a prolonged standoff, Anthony finally released her hand, and then gently touched her eyes and brows.
Before she could sigh with relief, Anthony suddenly leaned in, his handsome face right in front of her.
Genevieve’s heart skipped a beat.
Before she could react, Anthony’s warm lips pressed firmly against hers, dominant yet aloof.
As their lips met, a surge of electricity surged through her, sending a delightful shiver down her spine.
The contrast in physical strength between the man and the woman became evident at that moment.
He appeared somewhat hurried but at the same time leisurely in his desire for control, both over her and
himself.
He casually enjoyed kissing her, savoring the moment with his hand unmoving.
Her eyes, beautiful like stars on a calm summer night, draw one in with their irresistible charm.
When Genevieve gazed into Anthony’s eyes, she snapped out of her daze, sensing a cold and restrained demeanor beneath his gaze.
She abruptly turned her head, taking deep, slow breaths to calm herself.
A momentary lapse nearly made her play pretend to turn real as if she had been transported back to the days of intimate closeness three years prior when his eyes were solely for her in moments like this.
Genevieve felt a cool sensation spreading through her heart, deepening with each passing moment.
Anthony thought she was nervous as she trembled slightly.
He instinctively pulled her into his arms.
Genevieve’s scent resembled the shower gel he used, carrying a gentle, sweet orange fragrance that lingered
softly.
They drew close together. The man exuded warmth, while the woman seemed refreshingly cool.

They were so close that their breaths mingled, and their hearts swelled, almost overflowing with emotion.
At this moment, he finally felt that Genevieve was his.
He felt her burning love.
Anthony’s large hand gently patted her delicate shoulder, feeling warmth beneath his touch, yet he restrained himself from further contact as she trembled slightly.
He reassured her, “Don’t worry, I won’t touch you.”
His voice was low, roughened as he restrained himself.
Although she loved him deeply, Anthony felt that it wasn’t the right time.
If they were to become sexually intimate now, they would truly be looked down upon.
What he wanted was a relationship in the open, not a clandestine affair.
Genevieve came to her senses, leaning against his shoulder and then looking up at him.
Her earlier worries vanished, replaced by surprise and confusion.
Anthony wasn’t one to compromise himself.
She wondered, ‘He managed to hold back? Could it be out of respect?”
As she pondered, her mind wandered, ‘Maybe he not only lost his memory but also had issues with his body?‘
“Otherwise, it wasn’t normal for him not to react after a kiss in such a romantic atmosphere.
The more Genevieve thought, the more uneasy she became as if she had stumbled upon some earth–shattering
secret.
She stared at him wide–eyed, thinking, ‘Maybe Anthony cannot handle it.”
Anthony looked down at her, puzzled by the changing expressions on her face.
In the next moment, Genevieve reached out her soft arm, gently encircling his neck. Blinking her eyes, she said. softly, “I understand. I’ll keep your secret, no matter what happens to you. I like you a lot, truly, a lot.”
Her honest confession filled Anthony’s heart with joy.

happiness. That peculiar sensation lingered on.
He chuckled softly, his warm hand against her back, sensing the rush of affection as he gently touched her.
At that moment, the overwhelming surge of love overshadowed all his doubts and aloofness, causing them to
fade away.
Genevieve’s deep affection for him was palpable.
Genevieve tilted her head slightly and gave him a gentle smile.
Genevieve’s gentleness and tenderness seemed capable of stealing away half of his life, and he welcomed it willingly.
Anthony’s gaze deepened, drawing one in as if they could get lost in it.
He wanted to continue the kiss, but he held back, fearing he wouldn’t be able to control himself any longer.
Anthony slowly steadied his breath, closed his eyes for a moment, then reopened them. He gazed at her with at clearer mind,
He grabbed her hand, gently removing her arm from around his neck.
“Stop messing around. You need to go to sleep,” he said, his tone gently coaxing and indulgent, even though he wasn’t aware of it himself.
Genevieve blinked, thinking that Anthony might be experiencing physical issues and attempting to change the subject and divert attention.
She lifted her chin, playfully extending her hand. “Then carry me to bed.”
She thought, ‘Since he can’t do anything to me, it’s more meaningful when I take the initiative.‘
Anthony cast her a dark glance, fully aware that he wouldn’t refuse any of her requests, no matter how C0pyright © 2024 Nôv)(elDrama.Org.
unreasonable or childish they might seem.
He sat up, smoothly lifting her onto his lap before rising and heading toward the bedroom.
When Genevieve was taking a shower, he had already taken a quick look around the entire place.
Signs of occupancy in the most luxurious master bedroom indicated it was hers.

Gently placing her on the soft bed, he felt her delicate hand grab the hem of his clothes as he stood up.
“It’s too late, don’t go. Why don’t we just move in together?” she asked.
Anthony was taken aback by her words, caught off guard.
Genevieve, with a smile on her face and her head propped up, said, “We don’t have to do anything. I prefer a platonic kind of love.”
Anthony’s stiff posture relaxed slightly as he couldn’t help but let out a soft chuckle.
He said in a husky voice, “Genevieve, are you trying to mess with me? Plato? Do you think I’m a saint? How many times do you think I can resist?”
He looked at hers with a hint of warning.
He couldn’t believe he could restrain himself every time like today.
Genevieve lay on the soft blanket, her face delicate and beautiful, gazing at him with tender, loving eyes. “I hope you’ll fall for me soon. Living together would be so much easier. But if you’re not up for it, that’s okay.”
She sighed, seeming disappointed, then turned over and pulled the blanket around herself.
But inside, she was about to burst out laughing.
Plato was just an excuse she used for him; she couldn’t believe he wouldn’t accept it.
If his body were functioning right, Genevieve wouldn’t dare suggest this.
Anthony watched her silently, his emotions churning like the turbulent waves of the ocean, rising and falling with each passing moment.
Cool, decisive, delicate, and gentle….
She seemed to have a fatal attraction to him.
Despite knowing that invisible dangers, he found himself drawn closer, unable to resist.”
“If I’m not working late, I’ll come over.” That was his compromise.
Anthony headed back to the bathroom, taking a little longer for his shower this time.
When he came out, Genevieve was almost asleep.
He went straight to the other side of Genevieve’s bed and lay down.
She considered suggesting he sleep in the guest room, but considering his condition, she felt it wasn’t risky, so she let him stay, like having Goldie nearby.

The night was dark and still.
Genevieve rolled over and into Anthony’s arms groggily.
Putting his arm around her shoulder, Anthony spoke, his voice rich and low in the darkness. Though it was almost a whisper, it woke her up instantly. “Genevieve, tell me about what happened before our divorce?”
“Huh? Is he insane?‘ thought Genevieve. Her sleepiness disappeared, and she rolled her eyes.
