Never Late, Never Away Chapter 1010
Fabian froze upon hearing that. Seizing this opportunity, Hannah broke of his embrace and headed upstairs.
She was hoping to hear him explain himself the whole time, but heard nothing from him even after reaching the bedroom door.
Hannah let out a sigh and climbed back into bed, but she was unable to fall asleep no matter how hard she tried.
Suddenly, she felt a warm sensation from behind, followed by the fragrant scent of his shampoo and the tickling touch of his hair on her cheek.
“You asleep?” he asked while blowing gently into her ear.
Hannah tensed up instantly, but she kept her eyes shut as she pretended to be asleep.
Fabian let out a chuckle as he slowly moved his hand from her shoulder to her waist and hugged her tightly.
Hannah found his sudden act of intimacy disgusting and tensed up even more.
These hands are the same ones he held Yvette with…
With that thought, she tensed up further.
Fabian kept breathing heavily as if he was trying to suppress his urges. After quite a while, he let out a sigh and whispered softly into her ear, “Nothing happened between Yvette and I. What you saw during the day was merely an act. As you know, scandals are the best way for actors and actresses to boost their popularity.”
Heh, right… And I suppose my husband is the one who has to pay the price for her popularity, eh?
Hannah sneered at the thought of that, but remained silent and kept her lips pursed.
The silence increased the awkward tension between them. Fabian moved closer towards her and gently rubbed his face against the back of her neck, but she instinctively moved out of the way and shifted herself a little more towards her side of the bed.
Fabian let out an awkward sigh as he pulled his arm back and gave her some space by returning to his side of the bed.
