Villain Ch 1176. You Should Know What I Want
"Bella, you're drunk," Allen whispered, his voice barely audible as they stood close behind the wall near the balcony. The shadows from the soft lighting spilled around them, providing just enough cover from the crowd and the vigilant eyes of the restaurant's CCTV cameras. Bella held onto him tightly, her arms wrapped around his waist, her face pressed against his chest, where she could feel the steady rhythm of his heartbeat beneath her cheek.
Allen hadn't anticipated that his teasing, mixed with the warmth of the wine, would make Bella so… bold. He felt her grip tighten, and he knew she'd let her guard down, perhaps more than she'd intended to tonight. Her breath was warm against him, her presence soft yet insistent, and for a moment, he was taken aback by how vulnerable she seemed.
