True Fated Marriage (Grace and Heinz)
Chapter 2205

Sylvia's face turned red as she looked at Kendrix's handsome face. She had not expected him to say something like that.

From what she knew about him, he did not seem like someone to be so bold.

He had always been so calm and controlled that he somehow did not seem like a part of the world.

How could someone like that say such a thing? Sylvia wondered.

But she was sure that she had heard those words come out from his mouth.

She felt like she had learned something new about him.

She stood in the corridor in a daze, staring at him, forgetting to react and speak.

The bright lights made her skin seem translucent, almost as if she was an ethereal being.

Kendrix's gaze deepened, and he did not look away. In fact, he also forgot to react.

As they looked at each other, time seemed to stop for a moment.

Kendrix moved closer.

Only then did Sylvia come back to her senses. She stared at him blankly.

"What's wrong?" he blurted right before coming to his senses. However, his fingers were already caressing her cheeks. He said calmly, "Don't you want me to send you home?"

"Of course not." She blushed under his touch, and she did not dare to move.

She felt goosebumps all over her body and looked down, unable to stop the butterflies in her stomach.

"It's not that I don't want you to send me home. I simply think that Claudia will make fun of me for this." Sylvia's eyes were lowered, and her long lashes fluttered as she blinked. Her voice grew softer as if she was embarrassed. "I thought you didn't want her to know about us."

"Us?" he echoed, his voice slightly hoarse.

"Aren't we a couple?" She raised her head. Had he not acknowledged that they were in a relationship and that they were boyfriend and girlfriend? Sylvia wondered.

She gazed suspiciously at Kendrix, and he found it amusing.

After a brief silence, he smiled and replied, "Of course."

She breathed a sigh of relief. She had thought that he did not want to admit it, but it turned out she was wrong.

It seemed as if she was overthinking again

She lowered her head again, remaining silent.

He gently stroked her beautiful, delicate face.

It made her shiver, and her voice trembled a little as she said, "Don't!"

"Are you afraid of me?" His voice was a little low and hoarse, and his touch became hot.

Sylvia's chest tightened, and her long eyelashes trembled slightly. She wanted to shake her head, but she nodded instead.

Kendrix was somewhat shocked. "You're afraid of me?"

Only then did she realize she had nodded. Her face turned red, and she immediately shook her head.

"N-No," she hastened to explain, but she could not help stammering. It was the first time she had felt so nervous that she could barely speak. Kendrix wanted to retract his hand. However, fearing that he had misunderstood her, Sylvia immediately reached out and held his hand.

He could feel that her palms were cold and clammy.

He was stunned at first, but then he laughed.

"It seems that I placed a lot of pressure on you." Kendrix sighed.

"Not at all," Sylvia replied. She did not know how to explain herself. All she wanted him to know was that things were not what he thought.

However, she was afraid he did not like her and that her efforts would be wasted.

Although he was amused at her nervousness and incoherence, his heart ached for her too.

His eyes deepened with a burning fire.

Taking a deep breath, he looked around, grabbed her hand, and pulled her after him.

Confused, she followed him as he gripped her hand tightly.

She did not know where they were going or what they were going to do. All she knew was that he was behaving rather strangely. However, she still liked him a lot.

She felt that as long as she was with him, it did not matter where he took her.

Kendrix strode forward with Sylvia following close behind him. They soon arrived at the end of a corridor in the hotel.

He did not lead her into the life as she thought he would, but toward the emergency stairwell.

He turned the doorknob and went in.

As soon as they entered, he looked up to check that there were no surveillance cameras.

With a glimmer in his eyes, he pulled her into the stairwell and locked the door behind them.

She froze and looked up at him, still confused.

At the same time, he lowered his head and kissed her.

He had not given her any warning, and his lips were on hers before she knew it.

Once again, Sylvia was shocked by Kendrix's actions.

She could hardly believe that the aggressive Kendrix before her was the same aloof Kendrix she knew.

Kendrix pinned Sylvia against the

door with his body. He placed

his hands on her waist and the other on her shoulder. He could not hold in his emotions any longer.

As they stood in the secluded space, the lights suddenly went out.

Darkness surrounded them.

Their breathing grew heavier and louder.

It seemed that darkness made one bolder

Sylvia was shocked at first. However, when she came to her senses, she leaned closer and lost herself in his kiss.

She also responded to his kiss.

She was kissing him back.

It was not until Kendrix was satisfied that he let Sylvia go. He whispered in her ear, "Still afraid of me?"

"I'm not," Sylvia replied, her voice a little hoarse because of her dry throat.

He narrowed his eyes slightly. Although he could not see her face, he could hear their breathing.

She did not move as she leaned into his embrace.

She could hear his heart pounding.

Kendrix was just the same as Sylvia. Both of their hearts were pounding. Sylvia thought to herself.

She thought that she was the only one.

Not daring to move, they continued to hug each other in the dark.

She could feel his comforting warmth.

"Claudia is fine. You don't have to worry about her."

As they stood in the dark, Kendrix brought up the issue that was worrying Sylvia.

"Okay," she replied, still a little

worried. But she cried, and she

doesn'look like the type to cryel

easily." "She does cry quite often," he answered. én.swnovels.net

Sylvia gave a low cry of surprise. "What? Is that true?"

"Of course" He hugged her and said reassuringly, "Don't worry about her. She'll do what he has to do. As for you, focus on studying and getting into a good college so that we can be together."

Sylvia pursed her lips. She was happy to hear that they would be together in the future.

"Okay." She nodded and hugged Kendrix tightly.

Feeling her arms around him, he froze, and his breathing became heavier.

He lowered his head, searching for her lips. He was hoping to continue where they left off.

Sylvia's breathing quickened as she asked in a low voice, "You... Do you still want to kiss me?"

"Yes, I do," he replied frankly in his mesmerizing voice. "May I?"

As he spoke, Sylvia felt his breath on her lips and cheeks. It made her skin itch a little.

She wrapped her arms around his neck and tightened them ever so slightly. Standing on her toes, she took the initiative to lean in closer and kiss him.

That time, Sylvia was the one bravely taking the lead.

Her feelings for Kendrix had always been so fervent. Every breath she took revealed her love for him.
