Sam snorted grumpily. "I thought you're smart as a lawyer, Quinn. Did you use up your brains for work? Don't you understand how attraction works?"
Quinn flushed—it was his fault, and he had the cheek to tell her she was thickheaded?!
Still, Sam snapped loudly just then, "Isn't it obvious I'd like you to keep kissing me?"
As Quinn stared blankly at him, Sam sighed feebly. "You bonehead. You really don't get it."
With that, he suddenly pressed his lips over hers, leaving her eyes widening.
"Umph…" She was starting to grow weak—where she was just pecking Sam on the lips, Sam was going deep…
Their kiss lasted for who knows how long, and they seemed to be glued to each other even as the phone rang.
Eventually, Sam released her reluctantly, her gaze distant as she was left muddled…
"Sh*t!" Sam suddenly cursed and forced himself out of the bed.
As for Quinn, it was not until she heard the splashing from the bathroom that her head cleared.
Still, she was surprised—she always thought herself rational.
Since her parents' death and choosing the profession of lawyer, she always showed self-discipline and restraint, never rushing into things.
And yet, she was now a changed woman because of Sam—she had reason to believe that she would not even know what hit her if he ran her down with a truck.
Nonetheless, she got out of bed as well and returned to her room, since her pads were not there.
