Loveless Marriage novel Chapter 190

After all, she broke in without permission, and the meeting did not leave any time for her to prepare. Being extremely embarrassed, she had to step forward and smiled "Mr. Simons."

She wasn't sure if it was her imagination, but the atmosphere in the room was strange. It reminded her of the cold beauty she had met a few minutes ago.

Shawn's handsome face immediately revealed a smile. He stood up and walked to her front, "Please take a seat. Why didn't you inform me in advance when you were in London so that I can arrange for someone to pick you up?

Isabella smiled. She wiped her jacket and bent over as she sat on the sofa, "It's not an urgent matter. I'm here for other things, and have some time to visit you today."

She did not say that her purpose here was him.

"Just you alone?" Shawn's gaze was always on her face, his eyes warm and enchanting, with a smile on his lips.

"No, with my two assistants." Isabella lightly pinched her fingers, and laughed dryly, "I don't know if you were busy. Have I disturbed you?"

The secretary knocked on the door with two cups of tea, put them down and left.

The man looked deeply at her and said calmly, "You're too formal with me. Didn't I tell you before? No matter when you come, I will always welcome you. But you gave me a surprise. "

"…"

These words were a bit fomenting for two people who were not very familiar with each other and whose statuses were very different was a bit fomenting. 

Isabella lowered her head. She still maintained her professional smile and tone, "You sure know how to joke, Mr. Simons. At most, for me this can be considered as scaring instead of surprise, but you are such a calm and composed person, there shouldn't be anything that can scare you off."

With that, she raised the steaming cup ahead, blew gently on it, and took a sip.

As he sat with his legs crossed, the man's refined and noble temperament made him neither impatient nor impatient. There was even a kind warmth about him as if there was nothing that could provoke him as Isabella said.

But Shawn smiled lightly and his expression was as warm as jade. "No, it depends on who you're facing. Maybe you're an exception?"

Isabella was shocked. She was at a loss as to how to manage her expression, so panicked that she could not even hold onto her cup properly, leaving the boiling tea splashing onto her hands, which forced her to shout instinctively.

"Scalded?" The man reacted quickly, took the cup from her hand, and placed it on the table. He then quickly buckled her wrist, got up, and walked towards the bathroom.

Isabella suddenly became extremely embarrassed, "Mr...Mr. Simons...I'm okay …"

But Shawn ignored her until he put her fingers underwater to wash. Then he reminded her in a low voice, "You have to be careful. It's not good to leave scars on your beautiful hands."

With his wrist being held, the two were too close together. Isabella felt a little uncomfortable as she pulled his hand back a bit. She still spoke politely, "Mr. Simons...I'm okay now."

The man's large palm tensed up even more, and said gently, "It has to take five minutes."

"…"

Isabella quietly raised her eyes to look at the man's side profile. 

Shawn wouldn't be into her … would he?

No, that was impossible!

Her face changed, and she immediately pulled back her hand. Then she laughed awkwardly and wiped off the water on her hand, saying, "Mr. Simons, I'm fine now. The tea is getting cold, and I  won't get scalded again."

How could this man like her? There was no reason at all, and from the very beginning, she felt that he had been overly attentive to her, which was not that simple. Christian had also warned her before, and she felt that he seemed to know everything but just wasn't willing to tell her the reason.
