Chapter 173

As he got closer, Elizabeth grabbed his tie. Alexander paused, and her subtle face came into view. Was she beautiful? She had dark circles under her eyes. Was she ugly? Her red-tinged almond eyes looked pitifully charming. Alexander pressed his lips together and heard her ask, “Are you really not attracted to me?”

His gaze moved from her eyes to her red lips, then down to her revealing outfit. Her figure was on full display. His throat tightened, and he found himself moving closer to her lips. Time seemed to freeze. Just as he was about to kiss her, Esme’s face flashed in his mind. He stopped abruptly and turned his head. Elizabeth’s kiss landed on his neck, soft and cold, carrying an irresistible temptation. Alexander’s heart raced, something stirring inside him. He looked up and met her eyes. His voice was hoarse. “Elizabeth, I’m Alexander.”

Hearing his name, Elizabeth sobered up a bit. She rubbed her eyes and finally saw his face clearly. This wasn’t just any guy; it was Alexander. Elizabeth choked up, her fingers still clutching his collar, and they were in an intimate position. Her breathing grew heavier. She looked at his lips and felt an urge to kiss him. Because he was Alexander, she wanted to kiss him even more, to ask if she wasn’t worthy of being loved.

Alexander fastened her seatbelt and looked at her. Elizabeth bit her lip. The next second, she boldly leaned in, about to kiss him. They were only two centimeters apart. If either moved closer, they would kiss. Alexander didn’t move; his gaze fixed on her lips, his throat tightened, and his blood boiled—no idea how much she tempted him. “Elizabeth, you started this,” his voice was unbearably hoarse. Elizabeth just wanted to know if he still had any feelings for her.

Alexander kissed her directly, his palm on her waist. His kiss was aggressive, without a moment of gentleness, sweeping over her. He undid her seatbelt and reclined her car seat. Her body went limp, losing her senses under his kiss. She wanted to let go, past this once! She had loved him for so many years; was it too much to make love with him just once? Elizabeth wrapped her arms around his neck, actively meeting his kiss.

Alexander was somewhat surprised by her kissing skills. Did she like someone else before me? Did she really make love with someone else? Thinking of this, his possessiveness surged. He kissed her more greedily, almost madly. It was a strange feeling. He didn’t love her, yet he wanted to possess her.
