Chapter 12
Randall kept an eye on how much Shannon was drinking throughout the meal, so she didn’t even get tipsy when they fmished eating.
But she figured it was fine; she could pretend that she was drunk Therefore, deliberately missing a step, she fell into his arms, exclaiming, “Hubby.. Tin so dizzy…”
Her address made Randall tremule, and his heart instantly pounded. Looking down, he saw her slender, fair neck above her low–cut knitwear, making her extremely attractive.
He keenly sensed all the men passing checking her out, so he draped his jacket over her, bent down, carried her straight into the car, and pulled down the divider so the chauffeur couldn’t hear anything from the back seat.
“Hubby… I want… more. murmured, Shannon stroked his ches; gently, he didn’t know whether she was intentional or not. The only thing he did know was he was tempted to do something bad.
Holding her restless hand, he said, his voice utterly hoarse, “Come on, Shannon. We’ll be home soon.”
Shannon paused for a second; his gentle tone reminded her of that night they were in bed. Somehow, her breathing became more rapid
A few seconds later, she buried her face in his neck and said, her voice seductive and charming. “But I don’t want to go home. I got married today. I’m so happy I want to get drunk Don’t take me home…”
Holding her waist, he said, his warm breath reaching the tip of her nose, his voice mellow, “Are you really happy to marry
“Of course, I am. After all, I’m married to the best man in the world,” she responded and, while he was in a daze, wrapped her arms around his neck and squeezed into his arms more deeply.
Her soft body, tender skin, and parted rosy lips were all like an invitation to him. His Adam’s apple bobbed, and he raised his head, forcing himself to remain clear–headed.
In the next second, Shannon moaned, rubbing her face against his neck; her soft lips brushed against his collarbone, leaving him numb
“Shannon…” he murmured and pulled her away, for fear that if she continued, before they arrived home, he’d lose control.
He was always proud of his self–control especially when it came to sex. Yet somehow, though Shannon was just an immature young woman, she was so captivating to him when she played co
Seeing him totally unmoved, Shannon was dejected. She lay down on his lap, frustrated at how impossible he was to flirt with. Sighing, she gave up and decided to go to sleep.
By
the time she woke up, Randall had already carried her to the bedroom. As he gently put her to bed, she closed her eyes and took his hand, imitating those drunk women in TV dramas. Don’t go… I’m scared. Stay with me… she muttered.
Sitting on the edge of the bed, Randall stroked her head, soothing her gently. “Don’t be scared. I’m here.”
Meanwhile, he thought, ‘She was left in the village by the Lanes since she was a little girl, which must have traumatized her. She may always play hardball, but essentially, she’s harmless and delicate.
Sobbing, she tugged at his clothes, pleading. “Hug me… Sleep with me.
Stunned, he finally realized something was off. He said, exposing her, “Shannon, have you been pretending to be drunk? Sleeping with you? That’s your real purpose, isn’t it?”

Dropping the act, she opened her eyes and sat up. “Just tell me then. Can I sleep with you or not?”

He grinned. “What did you say yesterday? Something about playing affectionate when others are around and being strangers when we’re alone? So, this is just you luring me into the trap to take advantage of me?”
Hearing this, she wrapped her arms around her chest, snorting. You proposed to me, remember? I didn’t want anything from you.
“Audrey wants a granddaughter. So, your entire family stuffed me with dozens of billions of dollars the first time they saw me. I can’t just take their money, without doing them a favor, can ]?”
