Chapter 189: Chapter 189: Harboring Secrets?
July Quinn had no idea that Charles Quinn and Nina Quinn were up to some mischief, so after work, she even went to the supermarket.
When she came back home carrying the supermarket bags, Kyle Keaton was already there.
He must have been home for a while because he had changed out of his suit and was wearing a light gray loungewear, exuding a fresh scent of aftershave.
He was sitting on the sofa reading a newspaper, looking unusually elegant and dignified.
Yet this charming scene did not hold July Quinn’s gaze for long.
Sure enough, after entering the door, July Quinn went straight into the bathroom.
Kyle Keaton, pretending to diligently read the newspaper: "..."
Who says a man focused on his work is the most attractive?
Next time he sees the media touting this idea, he’ll make them go bankrupt!
After tossing the newspaper aside irritably, Kyle Keaton glanced toward the bathroom.
Just then, the bathroom door suddenly opened from the inside, and Kyle Keaton quickly averted his gaze, picking up the newspaper again, feigning seriousness with no intention to look around.
Little did he know, this time, he was even holding the newspaper upside down.
After July Quinn emerged from the bathroom, she went to the kitchen to get some ice water.
What surprised Kyle Keaton the most was that she actually sat down next to him.
Yet the entire time, July Quinn didn’t say a single word to him.
This made Kyle Keaton incredibly frustrated.
If she didn’t speak, how could he pretend to be annoyed by her noise and put down the newspaper?
Just as Kyle Keaton was pondering how to put down the newspaper and maintain his cool and serious persona, July Quinn’s voice came from beside him.
"The newspaper is upside down!"
Kyle Keaton: "..."
He looked seriously at the newspaper and found that the words were indeed upside down.
In frustration, he crumpled the newspaper into a ball and threw it aside.
Just as he was about to ask July Quinn what it would take for her to forgive his actions the other day, he unexpectedly noticed that July Quinn was wearing a black silk nightgown.
The hem looked quite innocent, but the back was...
Hmm, it was sheer.
Not only was her fair skin on full display, but you could also see a hint of curve from the side.
Against the black nightgown, that area was dazzlingly white.
At that moment, Kyle Keaton almost felt his blood starting to rush uncontrollably.
"Why are you dressed like this?"
He asked despite the words, but his Adam’s apple involuntarily moved.
His intuition still told him that July Quinn had ulterior motives.
You see, she was angry over that day when he took advantage of her while she was drunk; how could she suddenly be so generous and flaunt herself in front of him?
She must have a plan!
"It’s a nightgown, a new one! How does it look!"
July Quinn, whether sincerely wanting to share her joy of a new purchase, actually stood up and twirled in front of him.
With its sheer design, the twirl easily revealed things that should not be seen.
As a result, the string of reason Kyle Keaton had snapped completely.
Then, he reached out and pulled July Quinn into his arms, causing her to fall onto his lap.
"Dressed like this, what do you want to do?"
Even as he asked, his hand had already slid involuntarily toward her back, feeling that area of skin smooth like a boiled egg.
"Honey, why are you doubting my intentions? I’m at home wearing a nightgown, what’s wrong with that?"
July Quinn even blinked innocently at Kyle Keaton.
"There’s nothing wrong with wearing a nightgown, but wearing this kind is just..."
How can such revealing sleepwear be worn daily?
"You old-fashioned guy, this is called allure, don’t you get it?"
July Quinn said as she wrapped her arms around his neck, bringing her red lips closer to his neck, finally giving his Adam’s apple a bite.
With this action, all of Kyle Keaton’s rationality was completely destroyed.
His hand involuntarily began to explore downward, and his lips instinctively met July Quinn’s red lips.
But just after less than two seconds into the kiss, Kyle Keaton’s eyes widened.
Spicy!
Incredibly spicy!
Insanely spicy!
That damned July Quinn had hidden chili peppers in her mouth!
