Nothing Matters, except YOU & Me novel Chapter 17

Because the pockets were close to his thighs, they were quite warm. Yet, they did not make her feel disgusted at all. After fumbling around in his pockets, she did not find any keys. At this moment, sweat had already broken out on her forehead.

Tony’s thigh muscles were quite hard and strong. Even though she tried to be careful, she still could not avoid touching him.

Her entire face was flushed red, right to the tips of her ears; she was not sure if it was because of her fever or embarrassment. Exasperated, she switched to the other side of his pocket to look for the keys. As it was further away from her and the angle was not quite right, it took Myra several tries before she finally found the keys. Throughout the entire process, she was so shy and embarrassed that she felt that her breathing almost stopped.

She was not sure if it was an illusion, but she felt as though Tony’s body stiffened slightly.

She breathed out heavily and took another look at him. Even with his eyes closed, he was still extremely good-looking. She blushed and thought about what Tilly had been talking about everyday. Then, she could not help but mutter to herself, “If Tilly knows about tonight, I bet I will never hear the end of it.”

With that, she placed the keys into the lock and opened the door before she helped Tony into his house.

The apartment had two floors. Since Myra had used up all her strength, she placed him on the couch and walked to the kitchen after wiping the sweat off her forehead.

The fridge was relatively well stocked. After Myra married Sean, she had specially learned about various types of cooking in order to be a good wife. Hence, she easily made some broth for Tony to feel more refreshed and placed it on the table.

It was only at this moment did she look around his apartment.

It was clean and tidy—obviously the apartment of a bachelor. The tones were quite dark and the theme was a monochrome modernist style.

It could be seen from the details that Tony had quite a private life. There was nothing left behind by any woman—not even a strand of long hair could be seen.

There were many rich families in Bradfort city. It was obvious from Sean and his childhood friends that men in the upper-class like him had messy private lives. Judging by Tony’s status and position, it was hard to tell that he was such a passionate man.

She turned around to look at the man who was asleep on the couch. His closed eyes hid the usual sharp look in his eyes, making him look much more gentle at this moment. His perfectly sculpted facial features looked exquisite and Myra could not even find a single flaw on him.

A man like him has a crush on a woman?
