Chapter 1577: The Meeting Interrupted by Her
Janelle Mills put on her shoes and stepped lightly towards the door, following the direction illuminated by the lights.Her heart was filled with anticipation and a bit of nervousness, and her heartbeat began to accelerate.
He actually brought her back... She could hardly believe it, she couldn’t help but smile, her heart as sweet as if it were filled with honey.
The night was deep, and the surroundings were exceptionally quiet. Her footsteps were very light, like a little cat.
Walking along, she came to the door of the study. She peeked her head in and saw Trevor sitting at the desk, a computer open before him, his eyes fixed intently on the screen.
Still working so late? She was slightly startled, his focused look was really handsome!
Trevor was taking notes with a pen, not noticing her presence at the door.
Until Janelle stepped lightly inside... As she was about to reach the desk, Trevor looked up at her.
He was a bit surprised, why was she awake?
"I’m thirsty." Janelle stepped forward, reaching his side, leaning against the edge of the table, back to the computer, looking at him pitifully.
At this moment, the video meeting was still ongoing. Trevor was wearing Bluetooth earphones, and the camera just happened to show the side view of the girl.
The conference room in Freyne erupted!
Her soft-spoken "I’m thirsty." had also traveled across to the conference room on the other end, reaching the ears of the branch office executives.
Everyone was stunned, Mr. Trevino actually had a woman at his home, is he living with his girlfriend?
Trevor’s gentle and calm gaze lingered on the girl’s face, he casually picked up the half glass of water from the table and handed it to her.
"Did you drink from this?" She took the glass, a little embarrassed.
Trevor casually closed his laptop, his gaze still on her face, "Do you mind?"
The girl’s cheeks flushed slightly, having shared a kiss, would it be too pretentious to say she minded?
No, too thirsty! Her throat felt like it was on fire, so she drank the water in one go.
"Do you want more?" Trevor took the empty glass from her and set it down.
She shook her head, "No more."
His gaze was both teasing and affectionate as he held her hands, his eyes intense yet gentle, making her a bit shy.
Trevor gave her a gentle tug, Janelle stood upright, his right arm encircling from behind to hold her waist, "Want to take a shower?"
"..." Janelle’s heart skipped a beat, her ears turned red, meeting his gaze, feeling like she missed half a breath.
"I mean..." Trevor feared she’d misunderstand, so he quickly explained, "You smell like alcohol."
"You’re disgusted with me?" Janelle Mills looked fixedly at him, but she wasn’t really upset.
"Of course not." Trevor raised his eyes, speaking to her in a calm, pleasant voice, "I’m just worried you’d feel uncomfortable."
She understood what he meant, she just said that on purpose before.
Janelle couldn’t help but smile, "I’m not going." That smile carried a touch of playfulness, filled with sweetness, "Why did you bring me back?"
"You said your mom went to Korland, I didn’t feel safe leaving you alone there."
"..." She looked at him gratefully, "Thank you for taking me in."
"Can I kiss you?" Trevor asked with deep affection, "As a reward for taking you in." Despite his strong desire to get closer, he still sought her consent.
The girl couldn’t help but smile more sweetly, she bit her lip without answering, her eyes dark and clear.
Trevor gently cupped her face, his lips inching closer and finally kissed her lips.
The moment their lips met, an unprecedented sweetness filled the air of the study.
