Corinne was only teasing him, but Zachary looked into her eyes and said,”
Maybe I have.”
Corinne was taken aback and looked at him skeptically. “Is it that easy for you to fall in love with someone? You’re such a jerk!”
Zachary was speechless.
Corinne seemed to be very stubborn.
He lost his temper and pulled her into his arms. Though he could not move his legs, his upper body strength was not to be underestimated.
Before Corinne could react, Zachary pulled her into his lap and clutched her waist tightly.
“You’re very familiar to me, even though I don’t remember you. I wouldn’t describe what I feel now as love at first sight. It’s more like friends at first sight.
But, I will admit that you intrigue me.’ Corinne struggled as hard as she could but was unable to free herself from his embrace. She eventually decided not to waste her energy struggling. She was not so much worried about being in close contact with him as she was about putting too much pressure on his already infirm legs. Then again, since he was already hugging her that tightly, it was more likely that he was not in any pain.
“Okay, I believe you! Let go of me a little, will you? Your tight hug is getting a little uncomfortable…”
He took in her faint scent and felt an even deeper sense of familiarity. He wanted to be closer to her and instinctively held her tighter as if he could not bear to let her go. “Don’t move. You can leave after letting me hug you for a while longer.”
Corinne did not protest, but she asked, “Aren’t you afraid we might get caught?” “I locked the door,” Zachary replied.
Corinne glanced pensively at the door. “Won’t it be difficult for you to do your physiotherapy exercise now that Adam is here?” Zachary frowned. That had been one of his main worries at that moment. He had known that Adam would come over, but he did not expect it to be sooner rather than later.
Corinne rubbed her chin in deep thought and finally said, “Don’t worry. I’m going to find a way to keep Adam and Sophia busy so you’ll have time to recover.”
Zachary narrowed his eyes. “What are you going to do?”
Corinne already has a plan in mind. “You’ll know soon enough.”
Zachary was worried, and he was about to ask her some more questions when he heard the doorknob turn.
The two of them immediately became alert. Luckily for them, Zachary had the foresight to lock the door.

This, of course, puzzled Sophia. “Why did you lock the door when there’s no one else in the suite?” “Because I took O off my clothes.” “That shouldn’t be an
issue, Zachary. I’m your wife, so you don’t need to be shy.” Visit Novelxo.org to read the latest chapter of this novel
