His Domineering Lover
Chapter 808

She touched her forehead in a trance. That kiss was so natural but also inexplicable.

After she entered the house, Ramiro asked her, "I heard you got an escort tonight. Feel like talking about him?"

"He's Mr. Xiao from Bumblebee Corp. The eldest grandson of its chairman."

"You saw him?" Ramiro asked incredulously, given that the man he'd sent to investigate him returned without even a photo.

It was unbelievable that Tracey had met him in person.

"Yes. I made a cake for him and the servant in his house advised me to give him myself."

"He's a nice guy and liked my cake very much."

"He offered me a ride home. End of story." Tracey briefly told him what had happened tonight.

"You're very clever in doing that. Few people have met Mr. Xiao in person."

"How is he like?" Ramiro asked.

"He's gentle, interesting, and easygoing. But I didn't bring up the cooperation, which I think would be too early."

"Great. Take your time to get along with him. Don't behave like a hasty businessman hellbent on money."

"I know, Ramiro."

"Don't be too tired. It'll get harder for you as the babies grow bigger."

"Mm," Tracey answered in a delighted tone.

The brightness on her face startled Ramiro.

No matter what, it was good news that Tracey had got acquainted with Mr. Xiao.

It would add to her odds of winning the bet.

Ramiro didn't know Mr. Xiao was Adam. Adam had promised him three things. First, he wouldn't tell Tracey he was the father of the babies.

Second, he wouldn't tell Tracey about their past. Third, he wouldn't force Tracey into doing anything.

He hadn't broken any of these so far.

Adam was very glad that Tracey was off guard with him and didn't detest his touching.

Lying on her bed, Tracey was still thinking about that kiss.

It was featherlight but crashed her heart like a comet.

She tossed and turned on the bed, trying to shake off the lingering feeling of it.

She couldn't define her feelings for him neither could she figure out why on earth he had kissed her.

She grabbed her phone and googled "What does it mean if a man kissed my forehead?"

"Silly, it means he's hitting on you!"

"Either you're kidding me or you're really an idiot in love. He has feelings for you!"

Tracey buried her head in her pillow and groaned.

It couldn't be true that he had feelings for her. Why would such a decent man like him feel anything for a pregnant woman?

She tried to delude herself into believing that all that had happened between them was absolutely normal.

Her phone buzzed under the blanket. When she saw the name on the notification, she snapped her body up.

It was a message from Adam. "It's just a goodnight kiss. In case it keeps you up all night."

Tracey stared at the smile at the end of the sentence for seconds.

"Thank you for being so considerate, but I've already fallen asleep," Tracey retorted.

Her palpable exasperation made Adam's face break into a broad smile. He typed quickly, "But you replied so fast."

"I'm a light sleeper!" Tracey texted back, annoyed.

"My bad. Sleep tight."

"You too," Tracey replied with her mouth pouting.

Instead of going back to the hubbub, Adam went home directly.

He hadn't intended to expose his identity at all today.

So all his guests had come to celebrate the birthday of a man they didn't know and gone without finding it out.

In the apartment that Tracey used to live in, Rose and Caesar were stunned by what happened between them.

"Why is it so hard for you two to be together?" Rose said, shaking her head.

"I met her today. Apparently she has forgotten me." Steve said broodingly, sipping at his wine.

"Things are not as bad as you think. She can't remember me but I know her feelings for me are still there. It's only a matter of time for her to fall in love with me again," Adam said. "Am I mistaken? Because you look like you enjoy it." Rose said confusedly.

"I would say I enjoy every moment with her but seeing her fall in love with me again was particularly pleasant."
