Lost in Mr. Preston's Temptation novel Chapter 72

 

When Donny heard Clara’s words, his old face turned red. He coughed twice, walked forward, and said to Ethan, “Sir, I have something to report to you.”

“Go to the study,” Ethan let go of Clara, turned around and went upstairs, not answering her words at all.

Meanwhile, Donny quickly followed behind.

“...”

“This isn’t hard to guess.” Baxter leaned against the sofa and said arrogantly, “When Ethan kissed you just now, you looked like a log. He must have thought that you’re not good at kissing!”

Really?

Clara touched her lips. She could still feel the lingering warmth of Ethan’s lips on hers. She complained silently that even though she got married for the second time, she hadn’t kissed Steve.

Even on the day of their marriage, Steve had just given her a token kiss.

Clara raised her eyes and stared at Baxter mockingly, “At least I’m married, if my kissing skills aren’t good, I have someone to teach me. Unlike you, a poor single boy!”

“Who’s single!” Baxter said, “My girlfriend is abroad, she’s a very beautiful girl!”

Clara curled her red lips. “Hahaha!”

Baxter didn’t want to argue with Clara, so he changed the topic and beckoned for Clara to come over. Then like a magician preforming a magic trick, he took out a bottle of brandy from a drawer under the coffee table.

This was Ethan’s treasured brandy, and it was terrific for him to offer her some of it.

Clara was not stupid. She knew that he wanted to drink it himself and wanted to make her an accomplice. However, this brandy was rare, and she wanted to try it. Thus, she secretly drank a cup.

The brandy’s effect was strong. After one cup, Clara felt a little dizzy.

Before going upstairs, she remembered something and turned to Baxter. “Don’t talk about the rose diamond I received this afternoon in front of Ethan.”

It wasn’t from Preston at all.

“Okay, got it! “ Baxter waved her hand. She just thought that Clara wanted to treasure the gift and didn’t think much about it.

She finally stumbled upstairs, and after a lot of effort made it to the bathroom.

Clara squeezed shampoo on her ring in an effort to take it off, but it was stuck to her finger, and no matter how she tried, she couldn’t take it off.

She should return it to Ethan, but what should she do if she couldn’t take it off?

It may be that the wine had gotten to her head, but she felt like she needed to explain it to Ethan, so after leaving her room she walked stumbling to find Ethan.

The master bedroom door was not closed tightly and opened as soon as she pushed it. Fortunately, she grabbed the door frame in time to stabilize herself.

As she entered his room, Ethan happened to come out of the bathroom. He was scowling and seemed to be in a bad mood.

When he saw Clara holding the door frame, his eyes became even colder, “Is there a problem?”

“Yes.” Clara nodded and stumbled into the room.

After coming close to him, Clara discovered that he was only wearing a pair of gray house-pants. He had a healthy honey colored chest, and beautiful mermaid lines on both sides of his waist.

The presence of such a man caused Clara’s brain blank, and for a few minutes she just stared at his figure with wide eyes.

Wow, this body was so gorgeous!

As Ethan followed her gaze, his eyes deepened, and he asked again “What’s the matter?”

“I...”

Clara ran over in her drunken stupor. She did have something to ask him, but after seeing his figure, she couldn’t remember what it was that had she wanted to ask him.

“If you don’t have anything, just go back and sleep.” Ethan didn’t pay attention to her anymore and went to his bed.
