She Flash-Married To His Rival novel Chapter 238

'How should I respond to this? How could I not be attracted? But what are we to each other? We're just fake spouses!' Moira sighed inwardly.

Casting a quick glance at Barclay, Moira swiftly remarked, "You should go grab dinner. I'm tired. I'm heading back to bed. Goodnight!"

With that, she turned on her heels and bolted.

In less than five or six seconds, there was a resounding thud of the door being shut.

Barclay gazed at the closed door of the guest room, a smirk playing on his lips. "You're attracted, aren't you?"

'Hey, great,' thought Barclay.

Lying on the bed, Moira could hear her heart racing. She was glad she had bolted. Otherwise, she might have been in serious trouble.

Juliet was right. Any woman would be intrigued by a man like Barclay.

Moira couldn't help but sigh at her own unwarranted thoughts.

'Get a grip, Moira! You're in a professional partnership now, each taking what you need. When the time comes, you'll part ways and walk your separate paths. Falling for a business partner is just a cliché from novels!' she wondered.

After tearing apart her fantasies, Moira regained some composure.

She realized Barclay's earlier question was probably a test.

Was it because she had been too forward the other night?

Moira thought carefully and admitted to herself that she might have been a bit too much.

The doctors had said it was just some aphrodisiacs, nothing serious!

But what about her?

Upon thinking back to that night, Moira's face felt like it was on fire.

Did Barclay see through her charade?

Taking advantage of someone while intoxicated was really low-class.

Moira bit her lip, feeling remorseful, and resolved never to stoop to such behavior again.
