Lilia was touched by Jean's words. Her black eyes glowed with joy. She inched closer to the man, closing the distance between them. Lilia reached out and held Jean's cheeks. She leaned over as she slowly closed her eyes. Just before their lips touched—

The sound of the bell from the front door brought Lilia's movements to a halt. She shot an annoyed gaze at the source of the voice. This was the third time she'd been interrupted when she was about to kiss Jean! Did Tom ring the bell just now?!
