Chapter 147 Indirect Kiss
They were still at the foot of the mountain. Before Gabrielle could take in what had just happened, she saw that Westley was right in front of her. She moved back a bit in shock. At the same time. she remembered that he was competing with Micheal in climbing the mountain. As her husband stood in front of her, he took out a bottle of water from her bag and handed it to her.
“Please, help me open it while I wipe the sweat off my brows,” he said to her politely.
She took a brief look at the bottle of water in her hand only to find out that it was the same one that she had just drunk out of.
“Will Westley be okay with drinking from the same bottle that I have drunk from?” she queried herself silently.
“Westley,” she called him softly as she still looked at the bottle in her hand, “this bottle of water…”
“You can’t open it, can you?” he asked her with a sheer. “What can you do?” He was carrying Gabrielle’s bag on his shoulder and held a towel in his hand. As he wiped the sweat from his face to his chin, he looked casual and sexy. When he was done, he raised his
eyebrows and looked at Gabrielle.
With his eyes on her, Gabrielle’s heart started beating faster than normal.
“Why is he looking at me this way? Besides, why did he change into a different person after climbing the mountain?” she wondered.
This made her completely puzzled. She couldn’t help but wonder if he didn’t like being close to her. But now, he took the initiative to ask her to open the bottle of water that she had just drunk from. 4
For this reason, she was surprised and even flattered which left her at a loss for words.
The bottle had already been unscrewed before, so it was easy for her to open it again. Just then, she moved closer to Westley and whispered to him, “I have opened it already, Westley, but this
water…
“I have drunk this bottle of water before,” she rehearsed within her before she tried to say it out loud.
But before she could utter the remaining words, he grabbed the bottle of water from her and started gulping it down.
When Gabrielle saw this, she moved a few steps back and was too amazed to say anything. All she could do was to stare at his Adam’s apple, as it kept moving up and down as he drank the water.
Westley was had a perfect look. Even his small gesture of drinking water was enough to make people around him very excited, let alone his handsome face. He knew how to capture the hearts of people around him even without knowing
‘You are just drinking a bottle of water for heaven’s sake! You don’t need to act too sexy. It could easily make people lose control of themselves, ‘ Gabrielle reasoned.
“Yes? You are also thirsty, aren’t you? Do
Vou want some water, too?” Westley asked as he offered her the bottle. He had already drunk half of the bottle of water and took it down, only to find out that Gabrielle was staring at him with an incredible expression on her face..
He caught her looking at him in that instant
“No. I’m not thirsty. You can drink the water alone. I’m okay with it.” Gabrielle shook her head vehemently. She didn’t want to drink from the same bottle of water with him. “Yuck!” she muttered under her breath.
Although she was the first to drink from this bottle and Westley didn’t care about it, she did.
“Tell me the truth, you are shy, aren’t you?” He deliberately lowered his head and leaned in front of her. He continued to talk to her in a very gentle and vague tone, “Of course, I know that you’ve drunk out of this bottle of water. We are a couple, Gabrielle, and so, there is no big deal about doing intimate things. This was just an indirect kiss and also an innocent drink of water, nothing more. Why are you so nervous?” J
Immediately he said this, he didn’t wait for her reply before leaving her to herself. But the words he spoke remained in her ears and at the same time, it warmed her heart.
‘Damn it! Could it be that Westley is a male tramp? He knows what I’m afraid of the most, but he will still go ahead to do it. But at the same time, I’m attracted by his intimate words,’ she thought with a smile.
What made her feel more shameful was that what had just happened between both of them was seen by other people such as Austin. It seemed like her husband was playing a dirty trick on her.
“You can drink it all on your own. I’m not thirsty,” she shouted after him before he went far. She also stepped back from him and looked at his retreating figure cautiously
Westley turned around and looked at her with a smirk on his face.
When Gabrielle saw him do this, she knew that he did it on purpose to spite her.
