Chapter 125 A Slap In The Face

• The smile on my lips stretched and stretched and stretched until it could no longer stretch any further. With Jordan's arm linked with mine, we ascended the steps while pictures of us were taken from all angles. Samantha retreated to a corner as we made our way up; I mean, she had to. I had just told everyone that she had kidnapped me twice, so naturally, they would have questions. Until she was ready to defend herself, she might as well run or hide for all I care. Besides, she wanted Jordan and me to be apart, to get a divorce and end what was already starting so smoothly for us. Her plan backfired, and if I were her, with even a little bit of sense, I would run, run, and run, then hide my face in shame and disgust, never turning back to look at anyone again. That's exactly what I would do.
• "Hey..." Jordan whispered, and I turned my attention to him. The grin on his lips captured my heart, his handsome face made me drool, and his eyes glowed under the night sky.
• "What you did back there," he began, and my cheeks instantly heated up. I had wanted to kiss him for a while now, I had urges and thoughts about him that I was unwilling to suppress, especially because I knew he felt something for me too. If only I knew he was so scared and trying to hold back, I would have taken the lead a long time ago.
