?Chapter 608:


    Christina suddenly found herself longing to taste the soft, thin lips of Dn’s.


    Dn’s lips parted slightly as he saw Christina slowly leaning in closer. Right away, his pulse began to race. His breathing, usually so calm, now matched the wild beat of his heart as she inched nearer. Was Christina really about to kiss him?


    Just the idea made Dn’s heart pound harder. Nervous sweat slicked his palms. He had never been this wound up around anyone else. Only Christina had this effect on him. His whole body tensed, each breathing quicker and more uneven than thest.


    Dn looked down at her, sure they were about to kiss. His eyelids began to flutter closed…


    “Mr. Scott, we’ve arrived.” The car stopped abruptly, snapping both of them out of the moment.


    Christina flinched and quickly pulled away, her voice awkward. “I think I’ll head in and get some rest.”


    “Alright,” Dn responded, watching her slip out of the car in a hurry.


    The driver turned and asked, “Mr. Scott, should I take you back to thepany now, or…?”


    Dn shot a re at the driver. He took a moment to consider and then answered, “Back to thepany.” He worried that lingering might make Christina feel embarrassed.


    “Understood.” Feeling a chill running down his neck under Dn’s stern look, the driver quickly pulled away.


    Dn stared out the window, his gaze cold as memories of Christina leaning in reyed over and over in his mind. The sight of her flushed cheeks and narrowed eyes lingered, both enticing and unforgettable. If the car hadn’t stopped at that damned moment, and if the driver had stayed silent, they might have kissed.


    That thought left Dn simmering with frustration. An icy aura seemed to fill the whole car.


    Sensing the tension, the driver gripped the wheel with mmy hands, nervous sweat collecting on his back.


    Once Christina finished freshening up, she looked into the mirror. Dn’s cold, distant face shed in her mind, only to soften into a gentle smile. Then, her gaze…

    Christina’s thoughts drifted to Dn’s lips, unable to look away. Those thin lips moved ever so slightly, drawing her in and making her wonder what it would feel like to kiss them.


    The memory of leaning in for a kiss in the car made her cheeks heat up. Her heart began to race, out of her control. She bent over the sink and sshed cold water on her face, trying to cool down the flush.


    After a few more sshes, her cheeks cooled and her heartbeat finally slowed. How could she have such wild thoughts all of a sudden? Even when she was with Brendon, she had never wanted to bite his lips or wondered what kissing him would feel like. But Dn’s lips brought out a strange craving she couldn’t exin.


    Realizing her thoughts were running wild again, Christina lifted her hand and gave her cheeks a gentle p. She stared at her reflection and whispered, “Christina, don’t let your mind wander. You and Dn aren’t meant to be.” After sternly warning herself, Christina left the bathroom.


    Meanwhile, at the hospital, Katie cried out, “Mom! You’re finally awake!” She ran to Joselyn’s bedside, her face glowing with relief.


    The moment Joselyn opened her eyes, she reached for Katie’s hand. “Katie, is that awful Christina really Tiana?” Disbelief clouded her voice.
