Chapter 12

1105 Words
When I was thinking, my hand was held by his warm big hand again. He took my hand and walked into the VIP special elevator, heading straight to floor 69. His hands are really warm, or maybe my hands are really cold. When I was held by him like this, I was very greedy for the temperature he gave me. I looked up at him and smiled, "Ben Roberts, do you invite me to dinner here?" He faced the elevator door and stood straight. "Yes." It's just a simple word, but I think it's enough. Not long after, the elevator arrived at floor 69. The place used to be overcrowded, but today was very quiet. Except for the staff, no one else was seen. Ben Roberts beckoned the waiter to pour the red wine and raised his glass gently. "Would you like some?" I took a look at the red wine. This kind of wine is too luxurious for poor people like me. Today it's a treat, of course I want to have a try. I raised my glass and clinked it with Ben Roberts. "Cheers!" Ben Roberts raised his dashing eyebrows slightly, "cheers!" I raised my head and drank the wine in my glass in one gulp. It felt good. Ben Roberts shook his head helplessly. "It's not what you drink. It's easy to get drunk." Ben Roberts's POV I'm not worried about the wine, but I'm afraid that she will get drunk. I feel a little sorry for her. I remember that she was full of vitality and youth in the past, but looking at her who is drinking now, I feel very sorry for her. But no matter what, the only thing she didn't change was her optimistic attitude towards life and her enthusiasm for work. I will protect her well. Since she wants to drink, just let her drink. Jane Dench's Pov Maybe it's because of the effect of alcohol that I feel much bolder. "Ben Roberts, thank you for giving me such a romantic dinner." Ben Roberts smiled ambiguously and said calmly in his low and sexy voice, "if you want to thank Ms.Sara, then go and thank her. Everything tonight was arranged by her." "Thank you, too." I understand. Even if Ms.Sara arranged it, it wouldn't have happened without him. Thinking of this, I naughtily pouted at Ben Roberts and said, "a man of duplicity." Ben Roberts's POV Her action of pouting made her lips like red cherries, which were coveting. I swallowed unconsciously and said, "sit here." Maybe it was because of my domineering tone that she sat down obediently. "Jane Dench..." I called her name in a low voice, as intoxicating as the red wine tonight. She blinked her beautiful big eyes and looked at me in confusion. "Hmm?" The next moment, I held her waist, lowered my head and kissed her hard. At first, our lips overlapped, and gradually I became restless. "HMM..." she was surprised and shy, and she couldn't help but snort. After a long kiss, her body became soft and her hands grabbed my clothes tightly subconsciously. Before she came to her senses, I gently touched her lips with my fingers. "This is a real kiss." Jane Dench's Pov "Let's go for a walk." I don't dare to look at him. Now that I have finished eating, I just want to escape from the ambiguous atmosphere. "Okay." In the car, I could smell the perfume on him because I sat very close to him. In fact, when he kissed me, I was really scared. I didn't enjoy the feeling of his first kiss in real sense. As time went by, I felt that I didn't hate Ben Roberts kissing. Thinking of this, I quietly looked up at Ben Roberts. When I saw his gentle eyes again, I couldn't help but lean into his arms. We went to the seaside. When we got off the car, we held hands. The sea wind at night was very cold. I had always been afraid of the cold, but this time I didn't feel cold. Maybe it was because there was someone by my side who could help me resist the wind. Sitting by the sea, I couldn't resist the alcohol and fell asleep soon. In a daze, I indistinctly felt that he took off his coat and covered me. He also held me in his arms, and gently patted my back with his thick palm. Maybe it's just an illusion caused by alcohol,. I'm willing to believe that the beauty of this moment is real and that I can still have happiness. Yes, I work so hard. I just want to live a happier life? Now happiness is waving at me. It seems that I am getting closer and closer to happiness. I am going to have a beautiful dream! Jane Dench's Pov Later, I didn't know anything. I didn't know how I got home and how I slept on the bed. Anyway, I only wore a night robe when I woke up. I'm not as surprised as last time, because I know Ben Roberts won't hurt me. I saw him reading newspaper on the sofa beside the window. But in just a month, it seems to be a habit of me to look at him every day when I open my eyes. "You're awake. Let's eat." His eyes were cold and indifferent, as if the man who kissed me and took a walk with me last night was not him at all. But I don't mind, because I know there is a fiery heart under his mask. Ben Roberts handed the milk to me and said, "I'm going to the nearby city to discuss a project today. I won't be back until tomorrow." I nodded, "you go ahead with your work. Don't worry about me. I have Happy with me." Happy barked twice, indicating that it didn't matter if Ben Roberts was not at home. It could stay at home with her mother. Mr.Lee of the Star Company came back today. I have to hand over the new business plan. I can't fail Mr.Lee's recognition of my work. I've been busy in the Company the whole morning. After lunch, I reported to Nora Kim about the business plan and rushed to Star company to find Mr.Lee. I knocked on the door of the office. When I heard the two words "come in", I pushed the door open and walked in. "Mr.Lee, you..." Before "hello" could be uttered, I was shocked by the other person in front of me. For a moment, I couldn't even speak.
