Chapter 260
Chapter 260
Zachary was momentarily at a loss for words. “Can’t you see the genuine feelings in my eyes? Shawn looks at you the same way I just did. Being a man, I can recognize how other men feel. He has a crush on you, and it’s been going on for a long time p>
It was just this foolish woman who naively saw him as a younger brother.
Shawn didn’t want to be her little brother; he wanted to be her partner.
As for her teasing, Zachary did not stop Serenity from playfully teasing him again and taking advantage of the moment.
“Emotions in your eyes? All I can sense is killing intent p>
Zachary’s expression darkened.
His efforts had been in vain.
Serenity laughed, feeling a bit embarrassed. “Maybe your acting just wasn’t convincing enough. Any emotion in the eyes must come from the heart. If you don’t love me, your gaze wouldn’t naturally convey any feelings p>
Zachary raised his hand.
He finally swatted away her playful hands.
“Mr. York p>
“Go on p>
“I—Um, I think I really, really want to kiss you p>
Zachary maintained a serious expression and gazed at her with his dark eyes.
Serenity felt embarrassed once more. “You’re just too handsome p>
After their last kiss, she found herself missing that passionate kiss of his.
Wait, did she just admit that?
“If you don’t want to, forget it. You should hurry and get back to what you need to do. I’ll keep an eye on the shop,” Serenity said, picking up her phone again and pretending to look at it to avoid his gaze.
Suddenly, a pair of strong hands lifted her from her spot behind the counter. Those hands gripped her shoulders and pulled her closer. He leaned in and pressed his lips against hers.
Serenity blinked, taken by surprise. This…
A man should not expect women to always take the lead. She felt a laugh bubbling up because this guy seemed determined to win at everything.
“Ow p>
She felt a sharp pain bloom on her lip.
He had bitten her!
While there was no blood, it still hurt.
“Are you a dog?! You bit me p>
“You’ve bitten me before too p>
Who advised her not to pay attention?
He believed his charm was limitless, especially after she praised him for being handsome and expressed a desire to kiss him. However, when he finally kissed her, she was so distracted that her mind might have drifted into oblivion.
It was quite disrespectful to his efforts to take the initiative.
“You petty bastard p>
She grasped Zachary’s face with both hands and bit his lip hard. She watched as his thin lip began to swell from her excessive bite.
Zachary moved behind the counter.
“What do you want, Zachary? You’re a grown man. Are you really going to go tit for tat with a little girl like me? Where are your manners? Where’s your generosity? You Ah p>
Zachary seized her and pushed her against the counter, kissing her with dominance and force. He didn’t release her until she raised the white flag of surrender.
“Dare to tease me like that again, and you’ll face the consequences p>
“If you p>
Zachary cautioned her as he loosened his grip.
No one should treat him like some celibate saint who could resist the allure of a beautiful woman in his arms.
With her constant teasing, he sometimes found himself tempted to give in.
“Who told you to look so good? Why do you have to be so handsome if it’s not your doing?” Serenity muttered.
Zachary’s expression darkened again.
She had teased him first and was now blaming him for being attractive.
“Serenity! Come out here, you little brat p>
The harsh shout rushed into the shop like a tornado. No one had entered yet, but the voices reached them first.
