Chapter 25 Ms Adam. You’ve Crossed The Line

Upon receiving the message, Maggie inwardly cursed.

Nathael took a cold shower in the small bathroom, feeling a bit cramped compared to what he was used to. However, everything in sight belonged to her–the faint pink color, the cute floral–shaped straps, the various scented toiletries, the cartoon–patterned cups.

Nathael forced himself to look away, allowing the cold water to pour over his head and calm the restlessness in his veins.

While Maggie was stewing the ribs and curry, she suddenly remembered that Nathael might not have at towel.

So, she turned down the heat and went to her room to find a new towel for him.

Unfortunately, the only remaining towel was a light pink one with a strawberry bear drawn on it. It looked adorable and girly.

Maggie hesitated for a moment, glanced at the other two towels she had used in the cupboard, and immediately dismissed the thought.

At that moment, a knocking sound echoed.

“Nathael, do you need a towel?”

Upon hearing her voice, Nathael turned off the shower. A few seconds later, the door opened a crack, and a clean, slender male hand reached out.

“This is new. Just make do with it.”

“Okay.”

Nathael took the towel. Then, he noticed the tender pink color and the ugly bear. He was at a loss for words.

The moment their fingers touched, Maggie was stunned for a few seconds. His fingers were cold, even. colder than before. So, she blinked and blurted out, “You used cold water.”

The next moment, the bathroom door opened, and Nathael, with his strong and pale upper body exposed,. said in a deep voice, “I had to find a way to cool down.”

Maggie understood and her cheeks flushed slightly. She muttered, “But aren’t you… Can you also get aroused?”

Nathael narrowed his eyes and said in a deep voice, “What?”

“You’re absolutely right!” Maggie looked up at him with sincerity in her eyes, affirming him seriously.

Yes, she had to uphold his dignity as a man!

His eyes were deep, filled with desire like the deep sea under the night sky. They carried the most extreme temptation in the midst of a storm, but at the same time, it was dangerous enough to make her heart race and feel uneasy.

Maggie pretended not to understand what he was saying and her ears turned red.

She looked straight at him and asked, “Nathael, do you like me a lot?”

Her eyes were clear. The warm light from the ceiling reflected two beautiful spots of light in her pupils and him. She looked so focused and charming.

Probably not expecting her to be so bold, Nathael pressed his thin lips together and did not respond immediately.

After a while, just when Maggie thought she would not get an answer from him, Nathael slowly said, “Ms. Adam, you’ve crossed the line.”

Maggie raised an eyebrow. She was not surprised by his answer, and she even figured it was better than she had imagined.

She looked at the man in front of her. His hair was half–dry and slightly messy, making him look less. restrained but wilder and more unruly. At the same time, his eyes exuded a fierce aura.

His eyes were thin and deep, his gaze sharp and as black as ink. At this moment, they looked like the most astonishing ink painting.
