Cherish Turner felt her heart stop for a moment and her breathing seemed to come to a halt. William Griffith's lips pressed down on hers, entwining in a passionate deep kiss. Dazed, she realized his handsome face was so close, his eyes closed, and she saw his thick long eyelashes. Unable to resist, she slowly closed her eyes too.
Outside the window, the wind blew softly, bringing in the sweet scent of spring.
Elijah Butler was afraid that William Griffith would really not speak, so she turned around and ran back to her room, planning to ask Cherish Turner to come out.
But before Elijah Butler could return to her room, she looked up and was suddenly stunned, unable to believe her eyes.
"Ah!" she couldn't help but let out a scream.
Their cry startled Cherish Turner, who opened her eyes and exchanged smiles with William Griffith.
