Chapter 173 - 173: Thought She Was Going to Jump Off the Building
After giving instructions to everyone, Scott Harris found it strange that he could not see Enna Clark. He asked with confusion, “Baron, where is Ms. Clark? Why can’t I see her?”
Baron Lawrence still had a knot of unvented anger inside him, making him very restless. Hearing his question, he responded impatiently, “She’s not available at the moment.”
“Huh…” Not available, what does that mean?
Scott Harris was left scratching his head.
Unfortunately, Baron Lawrence had no intention of explaining. He grabbed a cup of cold water from the dispenser and drank it all down. managing to quench some of the blazing fire within him.
Since he didn’t elaborate, Scott Harris didn’t dare to ask further, and instead went to supervise the others’ work…
In the small bedroom.
Enna Clark’s cheeks were burning hot. Hearing that Scott Harris stopped asking, she breathed a sigh of relief.
She got up and walked over to the mirror. Seeing her flushed face in the reflection, her heart gave a jolt. The heated scene from a while ago resurfaced in her mind.
“Enna Clark, calm down.”
She shook her head fiercely, dispelling the inappropriate images from her mind. Stretching out her hand, she fiercely slapped her cheeks, bit her lip, and looked at the mirror again…
Her lips were already swollen and so was her neck…
Her gaze moved down to her collarbones.
The love bites scattered on her fair collarbones were particularly noticeable. She quickly pulled up her clothes, covering that location. However, the freshly bitten area on her neck couldn’t be hidden no matter what.
She gently touched her neck.
“Sss—”It hurt so much that she couldn’t help but inhale sharply.
Did he belong to the canine family?!
The bite was so fierce!
Enna Clark let go of her neck, buttoned up her clothes, opened the window, and stood by it to catch her breath.
It was already approaching summer.
Their neighborhood was an old community, with Camphor trees densely planted in the green area. The wind rustling through the trees brought a cool breeze.
After spending some time by the window, Enna’s body temperature finally dropped.
Just when she was about to close the window and listen out for people leaving outside the door, the bedroom door was flung open. The next second, she was pulled into a hard embrace!
“Ouch.”
Her nose accidentally rammed into the man’s hard chest. The pain almost made Enna cry out. Even the most patient person would lose their temper when tormented over and over again. Let alone her, who was never known for her patience!
“Baron Lawrence, what the heck?!”
Before she could finish yelling, she was shouted at even louder, “I should be the one asking you what you’re trying to do!”
Enna Clark was startled by his outburst, and as she looked up, she was absolutely dumbfounded.
He was genuinely furious!
Although Baron Lawrence had a temper, his anger was usually justified, never like it was now. His current anger was akin to a nuclear explosion.
The last time she saw him this angry was back at the amusement park when she had come clean about something.
But even then, he was very angry, nothing as frightening as this!
The fiery eyes seemed as if they wanted to trample her!
Enna’s energy drained immediately, she stammered, “I… I didn’t do anything.”
Baron Lawrence was genuinely angry!
Angry to the point where his chest felt tight and painful!
His face was ashen, as he griped the small woman’s shoulders and shouted back at her, ‘What were you doing standing by the window? What was your intention opening it?”
Enna Clark snapped out of it, finally understanding his concerns.
Could it be that Baron Lawrence thought she was going to jump off the building?
Although the thought was absurd, she couldn’t bring herself to laugh after seeing his wrathful reaction. Her heart felt like a mess..
