    Chapter 207 Surprise Bite


    Ste’s breathing became erratic as a thought crossed her mind.


    Could Abraham really be with another woman?


    Abraham pped her forehead sharply. “What nonsense are you thinking?”


    Ste hesitated. “Did I say something wrong?”


    I said something wrong?


    The moment the words left her mouth<b>, </b>she regretted them. “Let’s go eat,” she said quickly.


    Without his answer, <b>she </b>slipped her arm through his <b>and </b>pulled <b>him </b>along, perhaps <b>because </b>she was afraid to hear his


    <b>answer</b><b>. </b>


    Abraham nced down at the top of her head, <b>sensing </b>the sudden darkness in her demeanor.


    Ste’s nose prickled, and tears welled <b>uncontrobly </b>in her eyes.


    With a resigned smile, Abraham tilted her chin up, catching her teary eyes. “Why are you upset now?”


    “I’m not!” she protested, her voice thick with unshed tears.


    But she dared not say more.


    Amused by her pout, Abraham chuckled. “Do you really not remember?”


    “Huh?” Ste blinked, confusion clouding her misty eyes.


    Remember what!


    <b>Abraham </b>took her small hand <b>and </b>brushed <b>it </b><b>against </b>his lips. You bit me here.”


    Ste froze.


    What?


    This I did that?


    “Really, you don’t remember?” Abraham pressed.


    A loud whoosh filled Ste’s ears, and her face burned crimson.


    No way! I had no memory of that! Is it really<b>? </b>


    “I didn’t!” she blurted out defensively.


    <i>Is </i>that really I who did it? But I had no memory about that! Is he teasing me?


    <b>Abraham </b><b>pinched </b>her mouth<b>, </b>and Ste couldn’t help herself and directly opened it. “Ahh, what are you doing?”


    “Let me see which little teeth are so sharp.” Abraham said with a smile.


    Ste hurriedly struggled away and closed her mouth.

    Chapter 207 Surprise Bite


    Who can bite, that’s who knows<b>? </b>


    I hadn’t been at Abraham’s side for years, only catching glimpses of his life from afar, mostly about his business ventures in Fleule


    Rumors about his private <i>life</i>, especially concerning women, were rare. No one dared to spread such gossip.


    Ste swallowed hard, her cheeks burning.


    Abraham decided to spare her further agony. “Let’s eat,” he said, dropping the subject


    Ste didn’t dare bring it up again.


    Finished


    The air on Pluelville Hill was refreshing.


    Abraham led the way to the restaurant, where <b>only </bte–night snacks were avable at this hour. But if Ste wanted to eat. he’d see to it. The dining room was empty now.


    Ste stole a nce at Abraham, her eyes lingering on the mark on his lip.


    What exactly had <i>I </i>done? <b>Had </b>I just bitten him or had I gone further?


    Her gaze sharpened as she scanned his expression for clues.


    “What are you staring at?” Abraham interrupted her thoughts.


    Ste fidgeted. “Checking to see if you’re mad..


    What had <i>I </i>done? <i>Had </i>I ruined this sibling rtionship with my actions! All these years, I’d kept my feelings so carefully hidden, and not…


    <b>this</b><b>! </b>


    Her mind spun with self–reproach.


    Abraham <b>took </b>a sip


    of water, his tone


    inscrutable. “Do you think I should be angry, hmm?”


    Ste’s thoughts tangled in knots. “I… I didn’t mean… I mean


    Her voice trailed off as she caught the icy glint in his eyes. Fear closed her throat.


    Had <i>I </i>said the wrong thing again?


    Tears threatened to spill. “I really didn’t mean…”


    Abraham put down <b>his </b>ss with a humorlessugh. “So how do you want to make it up to me?”


    Ste’s mind went nk.


    Hit, did this mean I hadn’t just bitten him? Had I actually kissed him?


    Had the alcohol given me the courage <b>to </b>do what I’d never dared before?


    Had I really jumped onto him!
