Chapter 627
“Don’t know.” After two long months, Genevieve, who finally had her craving satisfied, was enjoying the meal prepared by Brucc.
She looked up and glanced at Bruce. “What about you?”
“I want to accompany you.” Bruce, with his dark eyes, stared at Genevieve unabashedly.
Genevicve almost choked on her food, and her face flushed red because of the intense coughing
She retrieved two tissues to wipe her mouth and replicd, “We’re not in a relationship, and I don‘t need you to accompany me. Whatever resources that you need, just let me know, and I will do my best to secure them for you.”
Bruce answered, “If you refuse my company, then it’s not right for me to accept anything from you.” He continued, “Ms. Rachford, you can treat me as a dispensable tool just like Charlotte.”
Shocked, she glared at Bruce. “A-Are you crazy?”
“No, I’m not. I just want to be there for you, yet at the same time, I do not want to pressure you.” Bruce put up a straight facc. “The moment I become useless to you, then I’ll leave.”
Every second mattered, and all Bruce wanted was to be by her side, be it for a day or an hour.
Genevieve fell silent as she finished up the breakfast. Then, she went back to her roomn to change.
When she came out of the room, Bruce passed her handbag to her.
From the moment they finished breakfast until they left, they did not utter a single word to each other. Only after exiting the building did Genevieve notice the enormous pile of snow covering the area, presumably from the heavy snowstorm last night,
While on her way back, she recalled that Bruce was the one driving last night too.
And the keys were not in her handbag.
Genevieve stood in the snow for a few seconds before abruptly pulling out her phone and sending a message to Bruce: I left my car keys. Please drive my car over here.
Bruce did not reply, but after three minutes, her car pulled out of the garage.
Genevieve opened the door to the passenger seat and got in. However, instead of getting seated, she unhurriedly approached Bruce and kissed him on the lips.
With his hand around her waist, Bruce looked up and kissed her back.
After a passionate kiss, Genevieve got on her seat and said with sparkling lips, “Let’s go somewhere remote and fun.”
“Sure.” Bruce flashed a faint smile.
After thirty minutes, they arrived at an outdoor ice-skating rink.
Because of the heavy snow last night, the roads and the trees were covered in snow, blending into the scenic view surrounding the ice-skating rink.
The place was far from the city, and given that it was Christmas, only a few were at the ice skating rink
After scanning the surroundings, Genevieve impatiently looked toward Bruce. “I did say to bring us somewhere remote. But why did you choose this place? I know how to ski, but not how to ice skate.”
“Don’t worry about it. I’ll teach you.” Bruce held onto her hand and walked toward the counter.
After getting the skates, Bruce casually squatted down beside Genevieve and helped her put them on. After that, he helped her up. “Try taking two steps.”
Genevieve did as he asked but nearly fell to the ground. Quickly, she hugged Bruce as though her life depended on it.
“We’re in public, so you should not hug me like this, don’t you think so?” Bruce slyly remarked.
Genevieve looked up and shot him a stare.
With Bruce’s undivided attention as her trainer, Genevieve could pick up the techniques swiftly. In less than ten minutes, she was able to skate freely.
Narrowing her eyes, she could feel the breeze brushing across her cheeks.
Realizing that Bruce was not paying attention to her, Genevieve furrowed her brows as a plan hatched in her mind. She crept closer to Bruce’s back and wanted to catch him off guard.
However, before she could place her hands on his back, Bruce instinctively turned around and carried her up. The next second, they were skating across the rink in a fluid and swift motion.
Shocked, Genevieve, with her eyes staring furiously at Bruce, clutched tightly at his shoulders,
