Chapter 23 The Intimate Lesson
"What?"
Elianna was stunned, unable to comprehend how the gentle and well-mannered Nola could be connected to the words Jefferson used.
Her face portrayed clear disbelief.
Unfazed by her reaction, Jefferson raised his hand.
With a clink, the metal lighter fell onto the table as he held his cigarette, his voice slightly muffled, "Light it for me."
Elianna remained silent for a few seconds before walking over to pick up the unfamiliar golden lighter.
It was a design she had never seen before, with no cover and a horizontal wheel.
She tried flicking it a few times, but it proved to be difficult.
Her attention was focused on the lighter, unaware of Jefferson's gaze as he scanned her from head to toe.
"Come over, let me show you."
Jefferson said, casually crossing his legs as he sat on a single-person sofa.
Having already experienced more intimate moments, Elianna had no reason to hold back. She walked over and sat on his thigh.
This time, Jefferson kept his word and truly began to teach her.
He embraced her from behind, holding her hand that gripped the lighter.
Like a patient teacher, he explained, "This is an old-fashioned arm-lift lighter. First, move this aside, then slide this..."
His deep voice was right by her ear, causing a light buzzing sensation.
The air seemed to be lacking as his arm blocked the space around her.
"Give it a try," Jefferson said, handing the lighter back to her.
After holding onto the metal casing for a while, it lost its icy chill and instead carried a warm sensation.
Elianna focused all her attention on the task of lighting the flame.
She had rarely used a lighter before, and this unique design required finesse, particularly with the side-positioned wheel, making it even more challenging.
After several attempts, only a few sparks emerged.
With the growing heat between them, the tension steadily rose.
They were just a flicker away from igniting their love flame.
As Elianna looked down, her loose hair fell, and her fair nape glistened under the lamplight with a slight sheen of perspiration.
