Chapter 406 Kissing Her

1/4

As they left the villa together, the fresh air hit Meryl like a wave, instantly melting away the tension she'd been holding.

She rolled down the window, letting the cool breeze sweep across her face, and Dalton didn't stop her.

His eyes drifted to her profile, a soft smile tugging at his lips.

It had been so long since he'd seen her smile like that, even if it

wasn't because of him.

The wind caught Meryl's hair, sending it dancing around her shoulders.

Dalton's heart raced at the sight.

It felt like a blast from the past, a reminder of their early days when he had been completely captivated by her.

She was his first crush, and before her, no one had ever made his heart flutter like this.

It was a little strange, really. Ever since that day, he'd helped her in the bathroom, he found himself searching for her in crowded halls, instinctively drawn to her even in a sea of other girls. Even though he had a car at home, he'd often walk behind her, ensuring she got home safely.

Throughout his teenage years, her image would pop into his

Unable to help himself, Dalton leaned in closer, inching toward her until he was nearly brushing against her hair.

But as the distance between them shrank, Meryl suddenly turned to look at him, caught off guard by his proximity.

In an instant, their foreheads collided, her skin lightly grazing his lips.

Meryl blinked, stunned, then instinctively raised a hand to her forehead. "Dalton!"

Her voice was sharp, laced with irritation as she pushed against his chest, trying to create some space. Dalton never thought he would end up kissing her.

The gentle brush of her forehead against his lips lingered, and he instinctively ran his fingers across his mouth. They were so close that he could see the fine hairs on her cheeks and catch the soft scent of her body wash.

His throat tightened.

He was truly captivated. Even though Meryl's eyes sparkled with mockery, all he could think about was wanting to be closer to her.

It hit him that when you liked someone, your body just naturally craved to be near them.

He felt a strong, primal desire for Meryl, a kind of yearning he didn't experience with Lydia. Chapter 406 Kissing Her

With Lydia, it was always her making the first move.

He shut his eyes, trying to push down the overwhelming sensations.

But as soon as he did, Meryl's face flashed in his mind.

He wanted her so much that it felt physical.

Luckily, just then, the car came to a smooth stop outside the concert hall, breaking the tension that had settled in the vehicle. Meryl jumped out as if Dalton was some sort of beast behind her.

He followed right after, impeccably dressed and wearing an expression of calm as if nothing significant had happened in the

car.

Meryl noticed they weren't taking the usual entrance. There were no security checks, and every few steps, she spotted a bodyguard.

It seemed Dalton had come fully prepared.

If she wanted to slip away, it would be nearly impossible.

"This is the VIP entrance, Meryl. I've booked the entire concert hall just for you. It'll be just us and the performers inside, no one else." Meryl was at a loss for words. No wonder Dalton had taken her

out to the concert.
