Elder Kinston's Exclusive Sweet Wife-Chapter 606 - 632: Is it an Impulse?
No, the lottery ticket is nothing; her hugging him like this is something no amount of money can replace!
Dorian Howards, with excitement, returned Alice Conley’s embrace, feeling that all the hardship of catching a flight back to City J before dawn was entirely worth it.
"Alice, do you know how much I’ve missed you these days?" he murmured. Previously, because she was unwilling to return to Falling City with him to meet his parents, and with the things she said, directly asserting their impossibility, he was really upset, so during those days, until he returned to Falling City, he hadn’t reached out to her at all.
He was angry with her, and also with himself—why did he continue to be infatuated with such a heartless girl!
Yet her figure kept lingering in his mind; even after returning to Falling City, he still couldn’t shake it off.
Last night, on New Year’s Eve in Falling City, the Howards Family held a banquet, inviting the elite of Falling City. Naturally, his parents introduced him to all sorts of distinguished ladies.
But looking at those women, he had no interest whatsoever; he even forgot their appearances as soon as he turned away.
After the banquet, when his mother asked which woman he had a good impression of, the face that came to mind was delicate and somewhat silly-looking.
Thus, he booked a flight in the middle of the night, boarded the plane early in the morning, and rushed over, only to see her! 𝚏𝗿𝗲𝐞𝐰𝚎𝕓𝐧𝚘𝘃𝗲𝐥.𝐜𝚘𝕞
"Alice, let’s never have a cold war again, okay?" Dorian Howards said, realizing that being in a cold war with her only made him feel frustrated to the point of liver pain, with no other benefits. So it’s best to experience this feeling as little as possible.
His whispers suddenly snapped her out of her thoughts.
So, one moment Alice Conley was tightly hugging Dorian Howards, and the next moment, she suddenly pulled her hands back and sprang out of his arms.
"Just now... just now that..." she suddenly became tongue-tied, unsure of how to explain her hug. After scratching her head for a moment, she finally forced out a sentence, "I acted impulsively."
"Impulsive?" He raised an eyebrow. Is this girl trying to distance herself from him again? "So, can impulsivity exempt one from responsibility?"
"Eh?" She blinked. Why does this sound so much like those novels she used to read, where after spending a night together, the man is ready to leave, and the woman questions him about not wanting to take responsibility?
Except, now the situation is reversed!
"What... what responsibility should I take?" she said. After all, all she did was hug him, nothing else egregious.
Alice Conley got confused by all the chaotic thoughts suddenly rushing into her head, and quickly shook her head. In any case, it’s impossible between them, so why think about it so much!
"Do you not know what kind of responsibility you should take?" He stared at her, stepping forward slowly, getting closer to her.
And she, slowly retreating, with his every step forward, she took a step back, until she was by the edge of a green belt. Seeing that if she stepped back any further, she would trip over the greenery, he quickly stepped forward, reaching out to wrap his arm around her waist, "Alright, stop retreating, do you really think I’m some menacing beast? Then who was the one who hugged me so excitedly just now?!"
