Now, let go of my hand, or you''re trying to seduce me."


    he let go as if his hand were on fire, and seeing him start the car engine, she gave up. She used to think he was cold and aloof. When did he have such a shameless side?


    Suddenly, Dominic''s phone chimed. He seemed cautious, likely worried about the photo on the screen, so he quickly nced at it and said, "Lia said she knows you''re noting back. Oh, and she ate your half of the watermelon."
