Beyond the Divorce by Third Blossom novel Chapter 261

Chapter 261 Missing You More Than Words

I wanted to kick myself as the words left my mouth I didn’t regret saying it, but a peculiar feeling had washed over me. Sure enough, Atlas smiled at me, but I noticed an unmistakable hostility

My dad spoke up. “What are you saying? Mr. Atlas had a drink, so he shouldn’t be driving!”

“Oh,” I replied, getting up. “Alright.”

When we got to the car, Atlas said, “Head to Cresswind Valley.”

My heart sank a bit. Although Cresswind Valley was closer than Fremont Bay, I wondered why he didn’t

want to go back there

As if reading my thoughts, he explained. Fremont Bay is too far I don’t feel comfortable with you driving

back alone.”

His words left me conflicted Was it because he cared about me?

Neither of us spoke during the drive, and the silence hung heavily in the air. When we reached Cresswind

I was figuring out what he meant when he lowered his head and kissed my lips with biting intensity.

He didn’t let me go, even when I winced and let out an indelicate moan. I pushed against him, but he

pulled me into his embrace.

resistance tumed into an embrace, and our passionate kiss turned into a tender one. I couldn’t tell

“But with me around, why would you worry?”
