Failing to dodge in time, I was kissed by Eric once more. Fortunately, he merely gave me a light peck o

n the lips like a dragonfly flitting over water without lingering this time around.

“I’m now energetic again!” As Eric said this, he started up the stairs again with me in his arms. In the en

d, he actually climbed the remaining 100 over steps while carrying me. I persuaded him to put me down

several times during the climb, but he refused to do so.

I’ve now truly experienced the depth of this guy’s pride. Anyone would be exhausted to carry someone

weighing almost 100 pounds for such a long distance, but he didn’t give up. He must be dead beat, sw

eat dripping off his face and panting like an old steam engine, but still, he pushed through just because This content © Nôv/elDr(a)m/a.Org.

he’d made such a promise. Such a person isn’t just remarkable, but also a smidge terrifying!

As we sat at the landing, sympathy inevitably welled within me when I glimpsed the sweat dotting his fo

rehead, and I unconsciously reached out to wipe it for him. Out of the blue, he extended a hand and gr

abbed mine, his jet–black eyes pinned intently on me. “Lilian.”

“Hmm?”

“I like you.” His voice was a touch husky, sounding incredibly sexy.

At this, I could hear my heart beating like a drum. He said that he missed me last night, but I didn’t take

it to heart, thinking that it was drunken rambling. Now, however, he was right before me, staring at me t

enderly with his alluring eyes and claiming that he liked me.

It’d be a lie if I were to say that I wasn’t delighted, for no woman would possibly rebuff a man like Eric,

myself included. Nonetheless, I didn’t know how to respond to him. His gaze was too gentle, so I guiltily

averted my eyes out of fear that I’d melt under his assault.

However, he grabbed my chin and repeated, “Lilian, I said I like you!”

“I heard you.”

“Don’t you have anything to say to me?”

“What should I say?” I foolishly asked him in return. “Are you tired?”

“What a dumb woman! You’re truly a wet blanket!” He then chortled. Releasing his hold on my chin, he

took my hand instead and pulled me up before walking over to the top of the tower to look down at the

night view.

St

It was night now, so neon lights lit up

the landscape, rendering it a dazzling sight. As the entire city was laid out before my eyes, I couldn’t hel

p exclaiming softly, “What a beautiful sight!”

“You’re really an easily satisfied woman.” Standing behind me, Eric naturally wrapped his arms around

me. Such an intimate gesture had me somewhat discomfited, but i didn’t spurn him.

Subsequently, we both enjoyed the night view silently. After a long while, Eric broke the silence. “Lilian,

I’ll accompany you to Waldspirale tomorrow.”

“What about Jenny?” I instinctively asked.

“I’m having her return tomorrow.”

“So quickly? I’ll miss her greatly.”

“Isn’t it nice to have me accompany you?”

“I don’t want your company!”

“You’re so heartless! I’ve been so good to you, yet you’re so mean! My heart is shattered!”

“How glib!” I shot him a glare. “Oh yes, what did you say to the cathedral’s caretaker earlier? It doesn’t

make sense that he allowed us in when the place is closed.”

“Do you want to know?”
