Chapter 376: A kiss?
[PRESENT TIME]
Zoren nodded in understanding, recalling everything up until the moment he fainted. "Right... that’s what happened."
What a disappointment. They should’ve just eloped.
"I stayed over to make sure you’re okay," she grinned, finishing the last bite of her plate. "It was just fatigue. So, from now on, you need to start walking and things like that."
"Okay." He nodded without hesitation. "I also need to increase my stamina."
"Yes." She smiled but noticed the slight deviousness in his expression. "What?"
He shrugged. "Nothing."
"I think you’re smiling about something very... evil," she said, narrowing her eyes suspiciously. "What is it?"
"It’s nothing," he repeated, meeting her gaze. "I’m just happy to wake up and see you as soon as I open my eyes."
She pursed her lips and raised her chin. "I’m not... flustered."
"I’m not trying to make you," he chuckled softly as he took a bite.
Watching him chuckle and eat, Penny’s lips tightened further. Her cheeks flushed red as she observed how manly and attractive his chuckle sounded. The way his jaw moved as he chewed and how he occasionally glanced at her mesmerized her. Even his arms looked firm and because he was pale, she could see his veins around his toned arms.
