Chapter 43 The Gentle Man
“Where is the medical kit?” “It’s in the drawer under the coffee table.”
Soon, Pierre brought the medicine box from under the coffee table and took Selena’s hand in his. The
wound was not long, but it was still quite deep, so Pierre first took the alcohol swab to disinfect it, and
then applied the medicinal powder on it.
As he did all this, Selena kept watching his eyes. The first time she saw him, she had felt that this man
was an unfeeling and emotionless person. Otherwise, why would his eyes be so cold? They were
cial enough to turn people into ice! But now when she was looking at his eyes that were like two
bottomless pools, they had a trace of gentleness within them hidden beneath theyer of
mysteriousness. Hence, Selena looked on, mesmerized.
“Done.” Pierre finished bandaging her wound and let go of her hand. His bandaging technique was not
as perfect as it usually was. As this was a necessary skill to pick up when he was in the army, he had
perfected the skill, but when he was so close to Selena just now, the fragrance of her body kept
distracting his thoughts, and his mind kept going back to what happened earlier in the kindergarten.
Besides, he could asionally see from the corner of his eyes her fluttering long eyshes that
caused his heart to itch with an unbearable urge, so he simply did not have the mental capacity to
bandage the wound perfectly.
“T-Thank you.” Selena used her other hand to hold her injured hand, not even daring to raise her eyes
to look at Pierre. The atmosphere in the kitchen suddenly became a little awkward, as Pierre did not
want to go out, and Selena did not know what she was supposed to do next. Hence, they just kept
standing around like this.
“I’m fine. I still can cook, and I’ve already prepared everything. U-Um… W-Why don’t you go out and
wait? I-I’ll call you when it’s d-done,” Selena stammered. However, Pierre did not hear anything at all.
Immediately after that, Selena turned around to get the vegetables ready for the pot, but when she was
washing the vegetables just now, water had sshed on the ground, so she slipped on it and fell.
Pierre rushed forward and caught her in his arms, and at that moment, their eyes met.
Blinking a few times with her wide eyes, Selena’s mouth opened in surprise at Pierre’s action. Feeling
somewhat muddled in the head, the man suddenly lowered his head and kissed her.
At that moment, he felt he couldn’t control himself; Selena’s lips were so soft and supple that he
couldn’t restrain his urges. In fact, when he proposed to her earlier, he had wanted to kiss her deeply,
but because there were so many people around, they only shared a light kiss. When his lips touched
Selena’s, he had wanted to kiss her deeply, but it was a pity that he couldn’t do that at that time.
However, he really couldn’t stop himself from doing so now.
Previously, he had wanted to leave for a while in order to get his thoughts away from this woman and
restore his emotions back to normal. He even wanted to tell Selena everything that was going on about
the proposal earlier, including the fact that he did it all just for Juniper’s sake, so he hadn’t taken it
seriously. But right now, he couldn’t help but kiss her passionately on the lips.
Meanwhile, Selena did not push him away. She was rather dazed by what just happened, and she
simply looked at him dumbly.
In the past, when she was with Finneas, they didn’t kiss at first because she was still rather young, and
later, it was because Selena wasn’t brave enough. Besides, she was a girl, and she was quite
uncertain about this kind of thing, so she never took the initiative. Finneas did ask to kiss her before,Exclusive content ? by N?(v)el/Dr/ama.Org.
but Selena had refused him out of embarrassment. After being snubbed by her, he never mentioned it
again.
Hence, this was Selena’s first kiss. She did not expect that it would feel so sensual like this as their
tongues were entwined together.
As they kissed, their breathing became more and more rapid. Pierre pushed Selena against the door,
kissing hersciviously and igniting the fire of passion in both his and her heart.
