Chapter 446: Under Her Spell
Another day came by, and this time, Dani with Abel traveled to the Stewart Manor by carriage to attend Krisha’s wedding. Quietly, they sat opposite to her friend, and Dani could feel what Abel was feeling based on how his eyes lingered on her despite her looking straight out the window.
Up until now, Dani still hadn’t given him an answer about making things between them real. She was still mulling on it even when she already knew that the answer she wanted to give him was a simple yes. And yet she still didn’t want to say that word yet. She wanted to see how long his patience for her would last.
"Stop staring," she murmured with a pout.
"I can’t," Abel smirked. "You look so alluring today."
Dani gulped the moment she turned to Abel, seeing how intensely he was practically gawking at her. It was probably because of the dress she was currently wearing that her mother picked out for her that day.
It was an olive green dress that flatteringly hugged her figure, while her red hair was arranged into a braided low bun with loose dazzling curls. She had also applied a little makeup that made her more lovely, all so that she could look more radiant for her friend’s special occasion.
Hiding her embarrassment, Dani quickly countered with a raised brow. "Do you mean that I look plain before?" she scoffed. She couldn’t help but wonder how Abel would answer that.
"Of course, not," Abel cheekily smiled. "You’re beautiful and adorable, but you’re even more alluring today."
Dani immediately regretted ever asking such a question. She could only assume that she looked like a ripened tomato right now from how hard she was blushing. In response, he leaned in closer and touched her cheek.
