Bound by love: Marrying my Disabled Husband

Chapter 1490:

“Of course I can,” Freda replied confidently, pulling out her phone and beginning to make calls.

Gavin looked on, intrigued. “Are you close to her?” he asked.

“In a way, but she’s quite particular and won’t accept just any invitation. I’ll need a compelling reason for her to agree,” Freda explained as she typed out a message.

After sending the text, she turned to Gavin with a playful smirk. “If I secure this meeting, how will you thank me?” she asked.

Gavin didn’t reply, his expression unreadable.

Freda, undeterred by his silence, placed her hand on his thigh, her smile widening. “Stop it!” Gavin said, slightly irked, as he moved her hand away.

Freda laughed, her boldness unshaken as she leaned closer and moved her hand toward his crotch. “I like you, Gavin,” she said, her voice a mix of jest and seriousness. “I want to be a part of your life.”noveldrama

Gavin was taken aback by her forwardness. “Keep your hands to yourself!” he exclaimed, recoiling.

“But I want to be close to you,” Freda protested, her tone turning insistent.

Gavin’s standoffish demeanor made her feel as if she were being unjustly rebuffed, like a virtuous woman spurned by an unscrupulous suitor. This thought ignited a flare of annoyance within her.

Gavin, despite being a mature adult, seemed to require her to make all the advances. She had been transparent about her feelings from the start, but his obliviousness frustrated her.

“Why are you so resistant?” Freda demanded in exasperation as she pounced on him. “You can’t ignore what I feel for you.”

Freda’s gaze lingered on Gavin’s lips, and almost on instinct, she wet her own. This was it—today, she was determined to kiss him. No matter what.

Gavin couldn’t ignore the odd intensity in her stare. With a furrowed brow, he asked cautiously, “Have you been drinking? You’re kind of… unpredictable.”

Freda scowled, her patience wearing thin. “For crying out loud, I’ve been chasing you forever. Can’t you do something? Maybe hug me, kiss me—do something! Just once, throw caution to the wind!”

Gavin’s eye twitched at her outburst. “You want me to… take advantage of you? That’s not my style. You ought to look after yourself better.”

Freda’s frustration bubbled over. “Oh, for heaven’s sake! If you don’t take the lead, how am I supposed to? This is getting ridiculous—why do I always have to be the one making the bold moves?”

Gavin’s expression hardened. “Could you at least try to act like a lady? Not everything has to be a game of who can push the furthest.”

“I’m done with your over-the-top caution. You know what? Today, I am going to kiss you,” Freda snapped. She shot up from her seat, and before he could react, she climbed onto his lap, her determination blazing like wildfire.

Caught completely off guard, Gavin instinctively went to push her away. But Freda, quick as a fox, wrapped her arms tightly around his waist and, with her chin held high, leaned in boldly to press her lips to his.

Unfortunately for her, Gavin turned his face at the last second, and her kiss landed squarely on his cheek.
