Chapter 558
Lina Sweeney almost choked on the food in her mouth. She
managed to swallow the food in her mouth and looked up into Hadwin Stephenson’s eyes. His eyes were staring deeply at
her now as if he wanted to see through her.
“Well…” She bit her lip and managed to come up with a
reason. “Because sometimes… You look a little too indifferent,
just like… Uh, a lotus. Yes, a lotus can only be appreciated and
not messed around with, so… I… I don’t dare to do anything.
intimate with you.”
As she spoke, she felt a pang of guilt as she thought of their
intimate moment back then. Look at what she had gotten herself into because of it! Even if she had some funny ideas,
she did not dare to act on them!
‘Bah! What funny ideas?’ Lina Sweeney quickly told herself that she did not want to get into any more trouble with him.

She was shocked. If she knew that her mistakes in the past would result in this, she would not have gotten drunk even if she would be killed. “I was drunk. As you know, I’m not a very good drinker. I get drunk easily, and when I’m drunk, I don’t

Perhaps the only way to quell his anger was to drink and tell
himself not to care too much about this heartless woman!
