Chapter 616
Harriet took the gem and then left with Delbert.
The salesperson was still immersed in Harriet’s lovely smile.
She even picked up her phone and bragged about it to her colleagues.
If she knew what she had just given away for free, she would probably regret it deeply.
Harriet led Delbert away from the scene and stopped at a place far away.
While Harriet was catching her breath, Delbert suddenly bent down and whispered in her ear, “The raw stone I just found has an excellent gem inside. Happy about it?” His voice was deep and seductive.
His breath assailed Harriet’s ear, causing her earlobes to turn red.
“Knock it off! Lewis is watching,” she said, flinching.
“Lewis?” Delbert grumbled, pressing Harriet against the wall.
He gazed at Harriet with possessiveness filling his eyes.
“You’re disobedient again. With me around, are you still thinking about other men?” he said.
Harriet immediately surrendered to his dominant posture.
She curled up and weakly said, “I’m not. It just doesn’t feel right if we’re so intimate in public.”
Only then did she realize that Lewis, who had been walking with them, had disappeared.
Perhaps he had lost them when they went to the sales counter earlier.
Probably, Lewis didn’t notice their absence, so he did not follow.
At that moment, they were at the corner, with no one else around.
It was quiet and empty.
“What are you thinking again?” Delbert leaned closer, pressing his nose against hers.
Except for annoyance, there was an inscrutable smile in his eyes.
Harriet’s cheeks turned rosy, and her eyes shimmered.
But Delbert had no intention of letting her go. His eyes were tinted with desire.
He caressed her hand and arm.
Harriet braced her hand against his chest.
The atmosphere between them became more and more ambiguous.
Harriet summoned her courage and kissed Delbert on the lips.
Her voice was soft, with a hint of grievance. “I won’t think about anything again. Can you let me go?”
