Chapter 257

“Ryan, you-” Audrey’s breathing became erratic, and she felt her heart pounding. “This isn’t like you,” she finally managed to say.
“Even before you were with Nathan, I had already fallen in love with you–or more like, became obsessed with you,” Ryan confessed.
Audrey was taken aback; she had not noticed at all.
For a moment, Audrey wasn’t sure if Ryan had concealed his feelings well or if his love at
that time wasn’t as intense as it seemed.
“This is who I am.” Ryan’s gaze was wild, his aggression overwhelming. “Do you still want to be with me? If you say no, I will completely withdraw from your life. No questions asked.‘
Audrey would know Ryan was lying if she could see his eyes then. He would never withdraw from Audrey’s life.
Feeling Audrey grip his suit tighter, Ryan gently kissed Audrey’s ear, sensing her uncontrollable shivers.
He took off his glasses and kissed Audrey’s lips again. He then pulled her into his embrace, tangling his tongue with hers, eagerly consuming her with ferocity.
Audrey couldn’t help but curl her legs and kick her heels off.
Audrey thought she might be going crazy.
A normal person would probably want to escape if they were confessed to with such fervent
words.
But why was her heart beating so fast? Worse yet, why was she willing to fall into this trap?
Ryan hadn’t contacted her for the past few days, and Audrey’s emotions seemed to be in a mess–filled with anxiety and uncertainty.
If it hadn’t been for Julian having the bodyguards take turns guarding her door and following her everywhere, she would have thought those crazy scenes with Ryan were just her imagination.
She undoubtedly liked Ryan before his confession. But after today, Audrey suspected she might like Ryan more than she thought.
She didn’t want Ryan to exit her life. In fact, she liked Ryan’s intense possessiveness as well as his fantasies and profane desire toward her. This realization scared her.

Audrey’s heart started beating out of her chest.
Her trembling arm propped up on the long table. The other reached for Ryan’s shoulder, then instinctively looped around his neck.
