Chapter 258 I Can Please You Too

Connor looked up, offering her a polite nod and a smile. "Ms. Schmidt, what a coincidence."

Madison returned the nod, deliberately ignoring Lenora seated beside him. In a soft tone, she said. "I didn't expect to see you here. I just came to unwind with a friend." "We're having a team-building event here," Connor said.

"By the way, thank you for sending me back to the hotel the other night. How's your injury? Are you feeling better?"

Connor glanced at Lenora, a slight smile tugging at the corners of his lips. "I'm doing much better now What about you? Have you logged a police report!"

Lenora paused mid-bite, her gaze shifting curiously between Connor and Madison. He tent her back to the hotel

"I've given my statement. I can't thank you enough. You have no idea how scared I was back then. If it weren't for you, I might have... I really don't know how to express my gratitude." Madison's eyes, brimming with emotion, locked onto Connor's. Lenora could tell, Madison was interested in him.

"Don't mention it. It was no trouble at all." Connor gestured toward Lenora, seated across from him. "By the way, let me introduce you. This is my girlfriend, Lenora. Lenora, this is Ms. Schmidt."

Lenora gave Madison a polite nod. "Nice to meet you, Ms. Schmidt."

Madison raised her brows as if just noticing her. "Oh, hello, Ms. Wilkin. So, you're Connor's girlfriend. I thought you were his older sister."

"You're not wrong, Lenora replied calmly. "I'm a few years older than him."

Madison chuckled: "A more mature partner only makes the relationship better." With a playful wave at Connor, she added, "Well, I'd better get going. Enjoy your meal."

As Madison walked away, she mused to herself that even though Lenora was not particularly photogenic. she was far more beautiful in person. No wonder Mr. Fuller is so reluctant to let her go that he'd resort to underhanded tactics. Lenora watched Madison's retreating figure and then shifted her attention back to her meal.

As she ate, a thought occurred to her that she was being too composed. Even if Madison's presence did not make her jealous, she should at least show some concern for Connor.

After a moment, she asked gently, "Were you injured a few days ago?"

As expected, Connor appreciated the gesture, smiling warmly. "Getting punched a couple of times by some punks isn't a big deal."

Lenora pieced together the truth and advised, "Be careful the next time you play the hero. I'll worry about you."

Her words filled Connor with warmth. He nodded quickly. "Don't worry. I know my limits.

After they finished their meal, they strolled along the hill behind the resort. Connor took the initiative and gently held Lenora's hand.

The holiday resort, in addition to its hot springs, offered unparalleled scenic beauty.

Ahead, they spotted a pavilion and, hand in hand, walked toward it.

Connor glanced at the blooming wintersweet, then let his gaze settle on Lenora's face.

He was taken aback by her beauty, a wave of fondness washing over him and leaving him captivated.

A hopeful glint flickered in his eyes as he asked softly, Lenora, may I kiss you?"

Startled, Lenora snapped back to reality, momentarily frozen.

Upon seeing her reaction, Connor became somewhat flustered. "I was just speaking hypothetically. I know I sounded impulsive. Fm willing to wait whenever you're ready..

"Sure, you can kiss me," Lenora suddenly cut him off, her expression calm, like someone ready to meet an inevitable fate. It's just a kiss on the cheek or a peck on the lips, right? She was willing to make this small sacrifice if it meant seeking justice for her father.

Besides, Connor was handsome and caring, not to mention younger than her. She really had nothing to love.

A flicker of surprise flashed in Connor's eyes. He closed them and slowly leaned toward Lenora's cool lips.

Lenora followed suit, closing her eyes as a shadow fell over her.

Connor's breath drew closer, brushing lightly against her skin.

Suddenly, a powerful urge to escape surged within her

Just then, Connor's phone rang, breaking the moment.

Both of them opened their eyes at the same time, their gazes meeting in an awkward silence.

Lenora looked away first. "You should answer your phone."

Connor cleared his throat and pulled the phone from his pocket. Stepping back, he answered, "Hello, Mr. Fuller..."

"Oli, okay, got it. I'll be right there." He ended the call and turned to Lenora with an apologetic smile. "Im sorry. There's a bit of a work situation...

"It's all right," Lenora responded calmly. "It's clear that Stanley holds you in high regard. This is your chance to shine. You should get going."

Connor had seen his share of roommates girlfriends causing a fuss over their boyfriends' lack of time. In contrast, Lenora's support for his work was rare and invaluable.

"Thanks, Lenora! I'll take you to the hot springs first, okay?" He looked at her with gratitude, growing more confident in his choice. Lenora wasn't just young and beautiful-she was mature, composed, and full of understanding. She could assist him in ways that mattered. "I would like to sit here for a bit longer."

"All right then, I'll gonna go now."

Connor then left the pavilion.

Lenora remained still, her gaze fixed on the wintersweet blossoms in front of her. She lifted her phone and snapped a photo of them.

Suddenly, the sound of footsteps echoed from behind

Without turning around, Lenora asked, "Why did you come back?"

There was no response, but the footsteps drew closer.

Lenora sensed something was off. Just as she began to turn, someone suddenly wrapped their arms around her from behind.

A pair of strong hands encircled her waist, locking tightly.

"Let go of me!" she cried, startled, her heart hammering in her chest. She jabbed her elbow backward and struggled frantically.

The man behind her grunted softly but quickly seized control of her wrists. With a swift movement, he stepped forward, pressing her firmly against the railing Stop moving"

"Zachary

"Are you disappointed that it's not Connor holding you? Zachary's deep voice rumbled close to her ear

Whenever he thought about her reason for coming here, a surge of anger welled up inside him, especially after witnessing the scene that had just unfolded. If it hadn't been for Stanley's call, she and Connor might have already kissed! Dmn it, this woman! Instead of answering, Lenora asked indifferently. "What are you doing here? Did Stanley tell you I'm here

Zachary snorted. "What are you doing here?"

"I'm here to enjoy a hot spring bath. What else?"

"A hot spring bath? With Connor?" Zachary's voice darkened. "You even got Stanley to arrange an extra spot in his department's team-building event. How clever of you. Are you really that desperate, even though you just confirmed your relationship a few days ago?" Lenora instantly knew that Stanley had betrayed her.

The timing of Zachary's arrival, right after Connor left following Stanley's call, was no coincidence.

"So what if we just confirmed our relationship recently? Does it matter?" Lenora shot back. "He's my

boyfriend, and we'll do as we please!"

Fuming, Zachary let out a bitter laugh, his head slightly bowed. He leaned closer, his warm breath brushing against her car. "If you're feeling so lonely, why didn't you come to me? I can please you too. Or have you forgotten our time in the hot spring.. "Shut up!" Lenora snapped, tilting her head slightly as her earlobes flushed red.

Zachary's gaze lingered on her flushed ears. Then, almost as if to punish her, he unexpectedly took her soft, rosy carlobe into his mouth.

He knew this was her sensitive spot.

Caught off guard, Lenora felt a tingling

her spine, and a soft gasp escaped hensation wash over her, like an electric shock. A shiver ran down

Her legs weakened beneath her, and she struggled to stay upright.

Squaring her shoulders, she drew in her neck, her voice trembling "Z-Zachary, let me go!"

Zachary didn't let go. Instead, he inhaled deeply, savoring the moment..

Lenora shivered uncontrollably, unconsciously leaning into his embrace.

His broad, sturdy chest enveloped her entirely.

A soft, irresistible moan slipped from her lips, sending a surge of warmth through Zachary's body.

She clung to her sanity, even though a sense of powerlessness crept over her. "Let me go. Stop it," she protested. "I have a boyfriend now!" Zachary's gaze darkened at the word boyfriend. He pressed a searing kiss to her neck and whispered in a low voice. "Don't worry, he won't find out." To her own bewilderment, Lenora exhaled a quiet sigh of relief.

It felt disturbingly like the kind of rationalization one might make, believing everything would be fine as long as their partner didn't catch them cheating. However, as the thought sank in, she immediately recognized how inappropriate it was. "Let me go. We cannot do this...."

Suddenly, Lenora's entire body stiffened.

She felt something pressing against her beneath.

Her delicate face flushed beet red. "Zachary Fuller! You pervert!"
