The Mocked Miss’s Hidden Crowns novel Chapter 1657

“You...” Shirley frowned as Andrew flashed that mischievous smile. She couldn’t shake the feeling that something chaotic was about to happen. With him, you never really knew.

“Don’t even think about doing anything wild,” she said, her voice a little softer than she meant. She bit her lip, then added, “And seriously, don’t show up at my place in the middle of the night. If the neighbors catch you sneaking around and mistake you for a burglar, I’m not coming to bail you out.”

Andrew grinned even wider. “Just stop avoiding me, and I won’t have to do anything wild.”

“You...” Shirley was so flustered she couldn’t get another word out. “You’re unbelievable!”

Without waiting for his reply, she grabbed her bag and stormed off, frustration practically radiating off her.

Andrew just called after her, loud enough for everyone nearby to hear. “Unbelievable or not, that’s how you win a girl’s heart! Guys who care too much about their pride end up alone.”

If Shirley ever gave him a chance, he’d shout it from the rooftops that she was his. Just the thought made him want to tell the whole world.

Did he really just call her his girl?

Shirley felt her cheeks grow hot, a wave of embarrassment and a little anger washing over her. Lately, Andrew had been acting like a completely different person. Who on earth was teaching him all this flirty nonsense?

She quickened her pace, but behind her, Andrew was still watching with that satisfied, almost smug smile. Things had changed between them. The space she tried so hard to keep kept getting smaller every day. Maybe it wouldn’t be long before Shirley actually started falling for him. Maybe she already was.

...

Not too far away, inside a sleek black car, a figure dressed in dark clothes kept Andrew in their camera’s sight. Every move he made was captured without missing a beat.
