My Sweet Seduction novel Chapter 78

I LOOKED UP at him again and saw his pale eyes. While staring at me, the tightness in his jaws did not let up.

“Forgive me if I hurt you before. Maybe I need to correct my mistakes so I can make the right decision now. I don’t know how I can talk to him!” I cried.

He walked up to me slowly and pulled me closer to him, wrapping his arms around me. “Shh, don’t say that. That’s fine. Just trust me.”

I sunk into his warmth hard chest. I closed my eyes and smelled his fragrant smell. His hugs still did not change. It was still the same as before. I could feel the warmth of his body: the security and the gentleness.

How could it be that I hadn’t seen his love before? Pure, unselfish, free, warm, cozy, and real.

“Talk to him. Lawrence is the type of man who will not give up easily. Just trust him.”

Maybe he was right. I have to trust and believe we can still fix this.

I slowly let go of him and wiped away the tears that dripped when he suddenly pulled my hand where the ring Lawrence gave to me still wore in my fingers.

“Just believe you can fix this.” He twitched his brows and gently stroked the diamond ring I was wearing. “The ring is beautiful,” he whispered.

I let out a smile before we were awakened by the footsteps that were coming.

Jocko peeked out the door as if surprised to see the two of us.

“Lawrence is here,” he said before turning his back on us.

My heart skipped a beat. I quickly looked up at Peter, who was already smiling at me. He stroked my hair and nodded.

“Take this chance to talk to him. I know you both deserve to be happy. Everyone deserves to be happy, either do I,” he murmured.

My lips twitched at what he said. Is this the Peter I left before? I don’t know why I still have the courage to face him and stand in front of him after what I did to him. And he is still ready to help me.

“Thank you, Peter!” I hugged him tightly again. I also quickly touched him with a kiss on the cheek which made him very red, and even scratched his neck.

I laughed at his reaction, so we decided to go back downstairs. There were more people when we went down to the bar. The light is off, and the music is slow rock.

Peter and I returned to the table at the same time. He sits beside Brigette again.

I stepped aside from Cindy, who immediately whispered to me. “I called him; I said you are here.”

I shifted in my seat and caught a glimpse of Lawrence. He was leaning against his chair with so much authority. Carrick was next to him as if entertaining the newcomers. But his attention is only on me.

He is wearing a gray polo shirt. Wet hair indicates that she had just gotten out of the shower. With his brows furrowed and his stiff jaw packed with tiny stubbles, he looked so intimidating in his position. His delicate, pointy lips were attractive and captivating, and that frown made my heart reach out.
