Chapter 125 Bumped Into His Arms

• No one knew if it was a coincidence. At this moment, Byron stepped forward, trying to cross the gap between Cora and Carter. So Cora bumped into Byron’s arms accidentally. Byron was probably out of politeness or something else, and he stretched out his hand to support her waist. At that moment, the people around were stunned, and even a breath sound could be heard. Cora was nervous, feeling like her heart was about to jump into her mouth. It might be because of the memory of Byron’s touch on her baby. She was greedy for the temperature on his palm. So she didn’t break free from his arms but just looked up at him blankly. Byron was also looking down at her. His deep eyes were only her reflection. The smell of his frequently-used aftershave and a faint smell of tobacco lingered in her nose. It was something Cora missed the most during this week in Clamville.
• For a moment, Cora couldn’t help but want to put her arms around his neck and kiss him to express her deep thoughts on him in the most direct ways. But at this moment, Sally’s apology suddenly sounded in her ears. “Mr. Hansen, I’m sorry. I accidentally bumped into Cora and caused this. Sorry.” Sally bows to Byron and apologizes. At the same time, she quickly dragged Cora away from his hand. “Please forgive me. I know you are a tolerant man. Sally kept speaking and dragged Cora behind her, using her b*dy to hide Cora. Byron’s face was gloomy. But she caused this trouble. Although she feared him, she didn’t want to implicate Cora. Unexpectedly, Byron looked gloomy, but he didn’t get angry with Sally.
• He even ordered Carter, “Tell the waiter to add two more seats.” After saying that, he walked into the restaurant. “Does this mean that we are going to have dinner with them?” When Sally was thinking about it in a daze, Carter had already nodded to Byron in response and said, “Well, let’s go. Mr. Hansen has added two seats." Cora and Sally dared not to decline Byron’s arrangement. They could only enter the restaurant and sit at the same dining table with these big shots. But the arrangement of the seating positions made Sally feel confused. Cora was arranged to sit beside Byron, and Sally sat between Cora and Carter. Sally thought she was a third wheel. She could not help thinking, “Is it because I have sinned against Byron just now, so they just arranged the seating positions like this?”
