Still being hypnotized, I didn"t get the last sentence he said as I quickly grabbed the stem of the rose before he could say anything else that could rattle my already muddled mind."T-thank you..." I avoided his gaze and looked at the rose instead.
"My pleasure..."
"...."
"...."
The silence became awkward.
Now, what?!! What should I do?!! I should first find a vase for this flower, right? But should I just leave him there standing at the door? That would be rude, right?
"Uhmm... Do you want to come inside?"
Cain nodded.
I turned around, hurriedly to find a vase to put the rose so we could leave.
Cain entered, and his gaze followed the pretty girl around.
"Sit anywhere you like. Do you want something to drink? I only have water at the moment." I wanted to hit myself.
Why offer if you don"t have anything to offer?! Idiot!
Cain remained standing and continued to follow the uneasy girl with a heated gaze.
I was busying to find a d.a.m.n vase and wracked my brains out trying to guess where I had put that freakin" gla.s.s jar.
Dammit!! I don"t have a vase!
I quickly let out a long gla.s.s bottle, poured water in it, and put the rose inside.
Relieve, I turned around to face the man and was stunned to actually found him just inches away from me. His smell enticingly a.s.saulted my nose that I almost wondered off to dreamland.
How did he just magically appear in front of me?!
I raised my head to look at him and immediately regretted it.
His handsome face was just inches from mine, and I could already feel his warm fresh breath fanning my face.
Alarmed, I ran for the door and was about to turn the handle when a large hand nestled on top of mine. I froze, I felt his warmth on my back as his arm gently circled my waist, his warm breath tickling my ear.
I sensed my blood rus.h.i.+ng, my face heating, and that dizziness from the surging of my body"s temperature.
"You look beautiful." Cain softly whispered, making me s.h.i.+ver. It was ticklish, but at the same time hot.
Before I could even react, Cain released me and opened the door.
"After you," he said with an unreadable face.
Afraid of what he might do next, I immediately stormed out of my unit and ran-walked towards the elevator lobby with Cain leisurely walking beside me.
Inside the elevator, it was pure silence that even a drop of a needle could be heard. My face, still burning as my breathing sharp and shallow. I tried to compose myself.
What are you fl.u.s.tering about?! Don"t you see that he"s only nice to you because he wants something from you?!
Thinking along those lines, I regained my bearing, and when the elevator stopped in the bas.e.m.e.nt, I walked towards my car. However, a hand suddenly grabbed mine and I was forced to turn around.
"We"ll take my car," Cain said with a tone that couldn"t be refused.
Before I could even say anything, I was pulled in front of a white Bugatti Veyron sports car.
