SORRY

Chapter 72 st Kiss

Buma POV

The kiss was Revy #t was cackling

Aleah was a good kisser, and he knew it

He took full advantage of the knowledge while he nibbled on my lips before softly

When my lips parted to let out a groan, an opportunity presented itself, allowing him to delve his tongue inside

The pad of his tongue explored the hot cavern of my mouth, making me moan in pleasure

I almost got lost in the sensation he created but I had to remind myself that this was Noah Hunter–the ruthless billionaire who manipulates things and people to his advantage

That thought cuffed the heat consuming my body as reason seeped through consciousness

“Don’t use my childhood infatuation against me. It will never work “I warned Noah after tearing my lips off of him.

He smiled, and there was a sparkle in his eyes. It was like he had an Eureka moment

I bit my lip. What I said was a clear admission

“You still like me.” He declared

I snorted at his conceit. My chest heaving as traced to fill my lungs with air

“Your ego is showing, Mr. Hunter. A kiss is just a kiss. “I shot back, wanting to press his ego to a pound

Fused to like Noah as a child, and I was not discreet with my childhood crush because everyone around us knew about it even Noah

“Are you saying you can kiss me and not feel a thing?” He challenged us before we had a staring down contest that matched our wills

I nodded arrogantly in reply, causing Noah to raise his brows dubiously at me

But it was his response that threw me off.

“I don’t believe you” He said. Sure, and matter–of–factly.

“The proof is in the pudding.” I shot back, meeting him stare for stare.

“Exactly my point. And you are validating my claim. You still feel something for me.”

I shook my head, pulling out of his hypnotic gaze.

“Okay, let’s say I do feel something.” I hedged and saw Noah’s chin jutting out slightly. NôvelDrama.Org © 2024.

My hands clenched into fists, hating the sight of arrogance on his face.

“…But was it enough? I told you I liked you eight years ago, and what did I get? A divorce certificate.” I mentally winced when I heard the bitterness in my voice.

Noah became silent after that.

“I am sorry.” He said out of the blue.

“For what? Kissing me or making some baseless assumptions that I still like you?”

Noah shook his head.

“Neither.”

I now have it confirmed. Noah is toying with me.

I started to walk away in a huff, but not before bumping him with my shoulder and elbow. I gave him a mean nudge on the ribs, intending to hurt him.

Hearing his grunt of pain gave me the satisfaction that at least I was able to give him a dose of his own medicine.

“Infuriate me again, and I will make sure you will be hobbling the next time we meet,” I warned him before walking out of the balcony.

I slid open the door, heaving a sigh of relief when I saw my three children sleeping soundly in my bed.

At least, the ruckus Noah made did not wake them up.

have half a mind to lock Noah out, but my conscience got the better of me.

It was a chilly night, and staying outside for hours would make him catch a cold.

I settled on my previous side of the bed beside Mason,

My eyes were closed, but my mind was still far from sleepy. My senses were on heightened alert because Noah was still outside.

He came in after a while. He moved like a cat. My ears strained and my senses sharp.

The bed sagged on his weight, and I realized he laid down beside Riley.

It was silent in the room.

“I am sorry about Britney.” Noah’s low voice broke into the silence.

I felt his remorse, but I could not trust myself anymore. Maybe, I was just hearing what I wanted to hear.

“I thought you were having an affair.” He sighed.

Even after five years, the accusation that I cheated on him rankled. My body tensed in rising anger.

“….so I thought it was tit for tat. It was my pride talking. But I swear. I never touched Britney.”

He was at it again – concocting lies to deceive me.

“Liar!” I said, unable to keep my silence anymore.
