Usually, I would be the one forced into a kiss.

But now, I was the one who took the initiative!

God! How embarrassing!

The most important thing was that I had clearly heard Hendrix's head hit the wall when I'd kissed him because I had been too forceful.

At the same time, not far behind me, the sound of footsteps suddenly stopped.

Now that I had achieved my goal, I could get away!

Feeling a knife-like glare behind me, I wanted to leave, but Hendrix suddenly bit my lip and refused to let go. He whispered, "The audience will only believe it if it looks real."

Hendrix clearly intended to take advantage of this situation!

But now that things had been set in motion, there was no turning back. I closed my eyes, and went for it.

Taking a deep breath, I raised my hand to hold his face and kissed him more affectionately this time.

Hendrix smiled proudly and looked satisfied. Then he suddenly reached out and pushed me away.

He was only acting and didn't exert too much force. I was pushed two steps back before I managed to steady myself.

Hendrix, on the other hand, changed his casual demeanor. His angular face drooped, and he impatiently adjusted his coat. With an unhappy look on his face, he said, "Arianna, I've already made it clear to you that I've long since lost interest in you. You're still looking for trouble, aren't you?"

Right now, to Serene and Tyler, it probably looked as though Hendrix was particularly disgusted with me.

But I didn't know whether to laugh or cry. Hendrix's tone sounded very proud. It was obvious that he had just taken advantage of me, and yet he still pretended to be innocent in this!

Hendrix must be completely satisfied, wasn't he?

Still, I had to keep things going. I continued to play along, "It's not just up to you to decide. As long as I still have feelings for you, you can never break up with me." Hendrix narrowed his eyes and pretended to look helpless. He looked me over. With my understanding of him, I could easily see the pride hidden within his eyes.

Tyler, who was watching, overheard our conversation and teased me with a playful look on his face, "Miss Reid really isn't an ordinary woman at all."

I turned to look at them and smiled while pretending to be innocent. "Mr. Tyler, we meet again. What a coincidence."

Tyler looked at me and then at Hendrix. He stood up straight with his hands in his pockets and said sarcastically, "It's a coincidence, but this is also the door to the men's room. Miss Reid, you are from the Moore and the Reid family. It's not good for you to be at a place like this with a man, is it?"

"Yes, it's precisely because I know that I am from the Moore family and the Reid family, that I know that nobody would dare to do anything to me even if I were to break into the men's room. Moreover, this is between me and Hendrix. It has nothing to do with anyone else. You saw it. He had feelings for me when we kissed."

I paused, turned around, looked at Hendrix, and said with a smile, "Just admit it. You still have feelings for me. Why don't you arrange a time for us to arrange our wedding formalities?" Hendrix liked looking into my eyes, especially when they were filled with him.

After looking at each other for a few seconds, Hendrix turned his face away and tidied up the buttons on his cuffs. His expression looked off, and the emotions in his eyes weren't easy to read, but it vaguely looked like he was still angry. "For the sake of the children, I'll ignore everything that happened just now. Just this once!"
