Suddenly, they heard the sound of dogs barkinging from all around them. It seemed that every family in this town had a dog.


    At this moment, the sound of a dog barking was immediately followed by another.Content ? N?velDrama.Org 2024.


    Ang nervously clutched the front of Richard’s trench coat again as fear surged up within her.


    Holding her in his arms, Richard said in a deep voice, “Don’t be afraid. I''m here.”


    Spoken in a deep voice, the words seemed to give her enormous strength.


    With that, they walked ahead with his arm wrapped around her waist.


    When they finally arrived at the inn’s lobby, thendy looked at them with meaningful amusement. They''ve got to be a couple!


    Seriously, I''ve never seen such an attractive couple before.


    Ang asked thendy about the broken air conditioner.


    Thendy was very apologetic. She said she had called someone to repair the air conditioner, but the inn was so out of the


    way that the repairman had yet toe over to do the repairs so far.


    Unable to say anything else, Ang had no choice but to go upstairs with Richard.


    It was still freezing cold in the room when they got inside. As Ang rubbed her hands together for warmth, the man behind her


    draped his warm and heavy overcoat over her shoulders.


    Ang was stunned for a few seconds.


    Coming in front of her, Richard said in a deep voice, “Put it on.”


    Ang had no choice but to put on his military greatcoat, which reached down to her knees and looked like a warm and heavy


    dress on her. Richard was attentively helping her button up the greatcoat with his eyes full of tenderness under the light.


    Ang had once wished that the man would be gentle with her. Now he was finally gentle with her, but she was no longer


    allowed to enjoy it. “Thank you,” she said gratefully.


    “How are you gonna thank me?” Richard stared at her as the look in his eyes became serious.


    Dumbfounded, Ang looked at him as though she could understand what else the look in his eyes meant. However, she


    couldn’t respond to him. “Is there something to drink here?” She changed the subject.


    The man fetched his water bottle, opened it, and handed it to her. “Drink this.”


    Looking at his water bottle, Ang lowered her head, saying, “Let me ask thendy for a ss.”


    Resentment zed in Richard’s eyes the instant she finished her sentence. Suddenly, he held her waist and quickly pressed his


    lips to hers, kissing her in a domineering manner.


    Ang’s eyes widened in disbelief. She was wearing his incredibly heavy greatcoat in the first ce, and now she couldn''t move


    at all with his arm wrapped around her waist. Moreover, an electric current that made her tremble spread through her veins,


    causing her hands and feet to go limp against her will. Subsequently, she even forgot to push him.


    When Richard finished kissing her, he let go of her and stared at her gloomily. “Why are you afraid of drinking from my water


    bottle? We could even kiss.”


    “How could you...” Ang was both embarrassed and exasperated. Isn’t this guy a bit too nasty?


    Richard put the water bottle aside before unbuttoning his trench coat. It was as if there were scorching mes burning inside him


    in this freezing cold weather that made him feel extremely hot.


    Then, he picked up the water bottle and took a drink from it. At this very moment, even the sound of him drinking was amplified.


    The masculine charm that he oozed in every move made him somewhat wildly attractive.


    Ang stood aside while watching the man take off his trench coat and toss it onto the bed. His ck sweater was clinging to his


    sturdy and muscr torso.


    Unable to avert her eyes in this tiny room, she could only feel nervous as her gaze fell involuntarily upon his robust physique.


    Inadvertently, she met his eyes, which were shining brightly under the light. Despite the man’s glum expression, he had a tender


    look in his eyes.


    Sitting down on the bed, Ang pursed her lips like an ungrateful youngster, not knowing how to get along with him.


    “Just go to bed if you''re sleepy.” Richard sat down in his chair and took out his cell phone to look at it.


    Ang suddenly recalled the series of text messages she had peeked at on his cell phonest time. She raised her head


    sharply, asking, “Was the text messagest time sent to you by Annie?”


    Richard raised his narrow eyes and denied, “No, it wasn''t.”
