Chapter 888: Chapter 888: I Can Teach You Slowly...
Undeniably, his heart was indeed captivated by the girl in front of him.
However, he still couldn’t be sure whether this affection for the girl could surpass his feelings for Melody, or if he would ever be able to completely forget Melody...
If it were any other girl, even if she only attracted him a little or if he liked her just a bit, he would immediately marry her.
But this girl before him was different; she was the girl he saved ten years ago, the girl who had fought alongside him, risking life and limb.
She was excellent, deserving of all the best!
If he couldn’t give her wholehearted love, he would never touch the girl!
Right now, he couldn’t be sure if his affection for her could surpass his feelings for Melody, or if, in the years to come, he could wholeheartedly love only her.
So, he needed time to understand his own feelings, to figure out how much he truly loved the girl!
Seeing Mark not speaking, Arnold gave a bitter smile.
She released her arms from around Mark’s neck and lowered her tiptoed feet, "You don’t like me, so why do you care about me?"
Then, without waiting for Mark to say anything, Arnold forced a smile, holding back tears as she looked at Mark and said, "Today I came to say goodbye to you, to bid farewell to the hero in my heart."
She lost, completely lost.
She hit the southern wall, and her heart shattered into countless pieces, unbearably.
Upon reaching the Yellow River, all hope was lost.
But she was Arnold, the daughter of General Sebastian Moore, the little princess of the Moore family.
Even in defeat, she would do so with grace.
Arnold smiled, looking at Mark, resolutely saying, "Boss, from now on I will no longer love you... Let us both return to our own lives."
With those words, Arnold turned and left.
At the moment Arnold turned, the tears she held back fell from her eyes.
At the same moment, Mark grabbed Arnold’s slender wrist, halting her steps.
Looking at the girl who seemed like a completely different person, Mark pulled her back, pulling her forcefully into his arms.
Arnold gasped softly in pain as she suddenly collided into a firm chest.
Mark’s deep eyes stared at Arnold, speaking harshly, "Arnold, you’re the one who pushed me to this, don’t regret it!"
After saying that, Mark grabbed the girl’s head and unerringly kissed her lips fiercely.
Her mind went blank, her racing heart stopped beating, she forgot everything, only remembering her shy response...
Since realizing what it felt like to like someone, Arnold’s heart only had room for one person, towards whom she constantly strived to get closer.
Because of this fondness in her heart, Arnold had never dated anyone from childhood to adulthood, and kissing was something she had never experienced before.
Her cheeks flushed red, partly from shyness, partly from lack of oxygen.
Just when Arnold thought she might die from this suffocating kiss, Mark reluctantly released her, speaking indulgently, "Silly, breathe!"
Listening, Arnold inhaled, her face still flushed, staring blankly at Mark.
The boss was truly too beautiful.
He had straight, glossy black hair, slanting, heroic eyebrows.
His wickedly charming eyes were dark and deep, exuding an alluring and mesmerizing hue.
His lips were thin, sensual, and defined, like they were meticulously sculpted by the hand of God...
Looking at the girl with cheeks so red it seemed they could bleed, yet staring at him in a daze, Mark chuckled low, "What? Not enough?"
"Ah?" Arnold responded dumbfoundedly.
Realizing what Mark meant, she hurriedly lowered her head, her small face turning an even deeper shade of red.
Mark affectionately ruffled Arnold’s hair, "Earlier you were so bold, coming over to tease me, and now just after a kiss, you’re this nervous?"
After saying that, without allowing Arnold to speak, Mark continued, "But even being this nervous, you didn’t forget to keep looking at me. Arnold, just how much do you like me, huh?"
Arnold, her head bowed, dared not look at Mark, murmured in a voice as soft as a mosquito, "Boss, I..."
Struggling to express how much she liked Mark, Arnold, unwilling to betray her feelings, shifted the topic, "I haven’t kissed anyone before... you!"
Mark gazed at Arnold, smiling roguishly, "Really? Is it that you haven’t kissed me, or is it that you’ve never kissed anyone?"
As he spoke, Mark’s slender fingers landed on Arnold’s soft red lips, "Here, never explored by anyone, always reserved for me, right?"
Arnold: "..."
Some things are best kept in the heart, why say them out loud!
Mark knowingly smiled and swiftly lifted Arnold into his arms.
His wickedly charming eyes were filled with tenderness, gazing at Arnold affectionately, he said very seriously, "Not knowing how to kiss is not a problem, I can teach you slowly."
After speaking, Mark once again kissed Arnold’s lips.
After another deep kiss ended, Mark, eyes dark and intense, spoke to Arnold, "With more kissing in the future, you’ll gradually get used to it, and your face won’t turn this red!"
At this moment, being held by Mark, Arnold resembled a small cat being playfully teased.
She couldn’t bear to look Mark in the eyes, so overwhelmed with shyness, she kept her head low, wishing she could find a hole to crawl into.
Moreover, Arnold deeply questioned whether what she just heard was truly spoken by their boss?
