The bystanders began to cheer collectively. Someone in the crowd led the chant, "Kiss, kiss!"
Next, the scene became uncontrollable as everyone shouted at the top of their lungs, "Kiss, kiss!"
Clara Knox blushed just hearing them; she didn't dare look at Edward Harper, afraid he might actually do it. Doing such things behind closed doors was fine, but being on stage like performing a show for everyone to watch wasn't so great.
Time seemed to freeze for a few seconds, and Clara wished she could find a hole to crawl into.
Edward looked at her for a few seconds and wanted to laugh when he saw her embarrassed state. In private, she could be quite stubborn, but here she was just a shy little thing.
He gently lifted her chin, and Clara suddenly looked at him like a startled fawn.
"You, don't..."
Before she finished speaking, Edward kissed her, softly and gently, just a peck.
