Chapter 1421
"I’m not!" replied Lucy.
When Hector popped a piece of meat into his mouth, Lucy hurriedly asked, "How is it?"
He nodded and replied, "Not bad."
Lucy supported her head with her hands as a smile blossomed on her face.
Hector picked a piece of meat and put it near her mouth.She was stunned for a moment, but she soon
opened her mouth and ate it.
The sky was getting darker, and the city was beginning to be illuminated with neon lights.
After they finished their meal, they sat on the couch and watched a movie.
Lucy was holding a pillow in her hands and snuck a glance at Hector when she saw the protagonists
kissing each other passionately.
Sensing her gaze, Hector turned his head around.
"What’s wrong?"
She quickly averted her gaze.
"Nothing."
The corner of his lips curled upward as he continued.
"What do you have in mind?"
"N-Nothing.I’m not thinking about anything," replied Lucy, her voice thick with embarrassment.
She had never been in a relationship before, so she did not know what a normal couple would do when
spending time together.
Hector placed his arm across the back of the couch and leaned toward her.
"Really?"
Lucy's heart beat even faster when he suddenly approached her.She slowly turned her head around to
meet his eyes, pressed her lips, and kissed him after mustering up the courage.
After that, she buried her head into the pillow in her hand.
Hector chuckled deeply when he saw how red the tips of her ears had become.He cupped her cheeks
in his hands and forced her to meet his gaze.
"Is this some kind of a drill?"
Lucy blinked her eyes but did not say anything.
Hector slowly pressed his lips against hers.He seemed to have become even more skillful in kissing
than he had been a few days before.
Lucy grabbed the pillow with her hands tightly as she followed his lead and fell even deeper into the
kiss.He skillfully pried her teeth open, and Lucy was stunned.
As he deepened the kiss, she was overwhelmed by the suction force.
Lucy finally experienced what it meant to lose one's way while kissing.
Her heart was galloping rapidly, and she breathed heavily while her cheeks were flushed when he left
her lips.
"H-How did you..."
"How did you become so good at kissing?!’ Hector pressed the tip of his nose on her cheek, and his
breath grazed her skin.
"I learned it from the movie."
He stroked her neck with his palm and cupped her face in his hand.
"So, shall we continue?"
Lucy's head was a muddled mess right now, and she nodded.
Hector grabbed her into his arms and continued the kiss.She placed her hands on his shoulders and
tightened her fingers.
The next day, at the Soul Jewelry branch...
Lucy was making herself a cup of coffee in the pantry.
Her mind was filled with images of Hector kissing her from the previous night, and her cheeks were
tinged with a slight blush.She felt that Hector was truly a fast learner.
He had already learned how to kiss in just a few days, and she was a bit… addicted.
However, she was surprised that he had not continued the previous night.She had already prepared
herself for it.
Could it be that she was not charming enough? Lucy was stunned and placed her hand on her
forehead.
"What the h*ll am I thinking! ?’ "Lucy."
Naomi’s voice startled her, and she nearly knocked her cup over.She turned her head around and said,
"Naomi?"
Naomi pulled the drawer open and got herself a packet of tea.
"What's the matter? You look like you've done something wrong."
"I’m not."
She lowered her head.
Naomi smiled and continued.
"I heard you're in a relationship?"
"Huh? Did you hear it from other people in the office?"
"Yeah." Naomi went closer to her.
"You've been behaving strangely lately.You often gawk and giggle alone, which is a bit like me when I
had a crush on my husband.So, are you seeing someone, or do you have a crush on someone?"
Lucy’s heart raced, and she averted her gaze.
"Well...I'm not having a crush on someone."
Although they hadn’t made their relationship public, they were seeing each other right now.
"So, that means you’re seeing someone right now."
"Yeah," replied Lucy.
"Since you’re in a relationship, why can’t you tell other people about it? You see, those people in the
office are curious about your status, so why don't you just make your relationship public?"
