Chapter 237


    There lingered a tension–filled aura of ambiguity in the air. A hidden truth was about to burst out.


    Xanthea’s cheeks were flushed, her heart pounding like thunder. She should have followed his


    suggestion, grabbed the script, and left.

    But whether it was a suddenpse in judgment or a desire to confirm something, she impulsively


    stepped forward and grabbed his


    hand.


    “Orion, there’s just onest scene left. Shall we finish it today?”


    Her delicate hand unexpectedly caught his fingers, as if clinging to something, making Orion frozen in


    ce


    He slowly turned his face towards her, his dark desires and intense possessiveness naked in his gaze


    Xanthea shivered as she saw something in his eyes as if something had already been confirmed.


    But that wasn’t enough.


    Suppressing her racing heart, she looked at him with flickering eyes and said calmly, “Let’s start”


    In the final romantic scene between Phoenix and Maximus, Phoenix seduced Maximus in a desperate


    attempt to save Prescott. Xanthea was clueless about how to seduce a man, so she just followed the


    sparse instructions in the script and slowly walked towards Orion.


    She lowered her head slightly, her lushshes fluttering as she bit her rosy lips, and her cheeks flushed


    embarrassingly red. She raised her trembling, delicate fingers to his suit jacket, hesitantly unbuttoning


    the first button, and just as she was about to explore his broad, tense muscles, a strong force pulled


    her fiercely into his embrace.


    “Oh Onion”


    No need to even seduce him.


    She didn’t realize how provocative she looked…


    Onion’s expression was fierce, his eyes bloodshot, his gaze intensely affectionate, which startled


    Xanthea.

    You brought this on yourself, little temptress.


    Completely overtaken by desire, Orion bent down to capture her soft lips, his intense kissesnding on


    her tender and sensitive neck. “Xan, Xan, oh, my Xan.”


    Caught up in his passion, he called out her name, not Phoenix’s, and that confirmed Xanthea’s


    suspicions. Her eyes sparkled immdiately.


    He held her tightly, making it hard for her to breathe, his seductive whispers in her ear and the fierce


    kisses on her neck made her moan uncontrobly, her eyes bing increasingly hazy, her body


    responding to him.


    “Orion.”


    “Ding dong, ding–dong-


    Just as she moaned, a jarring doorbell and a familiar voice echoed, “Xan, are you home? Open up, it’s


    Uncle!”


    Uncle?


    Uncle!


    It took Xanthea a moment to react. She then snapped out of her trance and started forcefully pping


    the man on top of her. “Orion, Onion, stop, stop, my uncle is here!”


    She pped him several times and finally bit his shoulder to bring him back to his senses.


    “He’s at Room 3002”


    Orion’s eyes, still clouded with lust, leaned in to kiss her again, but Xanthea firmly covered his mouth.


    “Even so..”


    “Ding, ding-


    Her phone on the table suddenly rang. Xanthea’s eyes widened and nced towards the door, afraid


    that Oliver Lopez could hear through the door that her phone was ringing in Room 3001


    “Let go of me!”
