Chapter 42

"This woman is insane!"

That was the only thought occupying Evander's mind at the moment.

He released his grip and instead embraced Florence, holding her tightly against his chest to prevent her from moving.

"Have you had enough trouble?"

"Let go of me!" Florence was still struggling, unable to hear the helplessness in Evander's tone.

"Okay, I'll show you!"

Florence stopped moving in his embrace, looking a bit dazed.

Evander could distinctly feel Florence blink her eyes. Her long eyelashes brushed against his chest, causing him to feel a slight tickle.

As she breathed out, her warm breaths grazed against Evander's skin, leaving a slight dampness.

His shirt had been torn apart earlier, and now Florence's face was pressed directly against Evander's chest, without the barrier of the shirt between them.

"Let me go," Florence's voice was no longer as frenzied as it was before, and instead, had become much calmer.
