Ste replied. “<b>Wait </b>for me a sec.”
Susan being here–she <b>wasn’t </b>afraid of her; she just didn’t want to start anything
More than that, she didn’t want Abraham to see just how repulsive her own blood could be.
Even though she tried to draw a clear line between them, the fact remained–there was still <b>that </b>blood tie, And <b>that </b>alone made her skin crawl<b>. </b>
As soon as Ste <b>walked </b>out of the Oriental Grand Tower, she spotted Abraham’s custom–made car from afar.
She strode <b>over</b>; Abel stepped forward and respectfully opened the door for her.
Ste climbed in without hesitation. “What did you want to give me?”
The moment her gaze met his–those deep, noble eyes–Ste’s mind wavered for a second:
It felt like she was being drawn into them.
Abraham pulled out <b>a </b>ne from a blue velvet box. Just one nce at the pendant and she was breathless from how beautiful it <b>was</b>.
“This is the Sunre Radiance?”
She recognized it immediately.
She’d seen it when the diamond had been auctioned. Back then, she’d marveled at how stunning it looked.
Pristine quality; masterful <b>craftsmanship</b>–every detail was wless.
And now, it was in Abraham’s hands, made into <b>a </b>ne.
Abraharn said gently, “Your hair.”
That soft reminder. Ste asked, “This is for me?”
“Yeah. Let me put it on.”
Ste said nothing. It was too extravagant.
But when she <b>looked </b><b>into </b>Abraham’s eyes, she didn’t dare say no. With his temper<b>, </b>he might <b>just </b>toss her out of the <b>car </b>if she said something wrong.
She quickly lifted her <b>hair</b>.
He leaned <b>in</b>, in <b>that </b>moment, his <b>breath </b>brushed <b>across </b>her neck-
Warm breath mixed with the coolness <b>of </b>the ne sent her <b>heart </b><b>into </b>a frenzy.
His presence wrapped around herpletely, making her feel like she was tucked securely under his wings.
That feeling it was so familiar, it made Ste want to cry.
Abraham fastened the sp and adjusted it gently. “<b>Looks </b>beautiful<b>.” </b>
Ste sniffled “Why are <b>you </b>giving me something like this <b>out </b>of nowhere? It’s too much.”
