After taking the picture, Vermont let go of the person in his arms. Without saying a word, he nuzzled his nose against the tip of the other party’s nose and said, “Let’s see how the picture went.”
Felicity returned to her senses and hurriedly backed away. She wiped her lips and went through her phone with shaky hands. Her earlobes were so red that it looked like they were bleeding. She usually had a lot to say, but at that moment, she did not dare to look at Vermont’s face.
Vermont quickly leaned over to see the finished product with Felicity in a serious manner. “What? Is it blurry?”
Felicity almost threw her phone in shock when Vermont’s voice sounded in her ears. The photo they took was not blurry, but since Vermont was moving a lot, the picture seemed a little ambiguous.
The man in the picture was shirtless, showing off his indescribably sexy muscular body. At the same time, Felicity was in a tank top and a pair of shorts with Vermont’s arms around her waist as they kissed.
Vermont looked at her with affection. She looked very petite and innocent, especially since they had quite a height difference. This was the first time Felicity felt small in a good way. Hearing the man’s low voice, she backed up a little and rubbed her burning ears. “No, it’s fine,” she said.
“Should we take another one? Yosef is rather picky. I’m afraid he wouldn’t let it slide,” Vermont tried to persuade her.
Felicity paused and gave him an odd look. Vermont realized that he was being too obvious. “He’s a compulsive man. He probably wouldn’t like the picture.”
“Why don’t we try sending it first?” Felicity whispered as she sent Yosef the photo. He then immediately approved it and asked her about the situation. Felicity hurriedly told him everything and sent all the evidence she had on hand, including the processed audio. After Yosef received the information, he told her that he would update her soon.
Felicity was not really familiar with the other party and decided that it would not be good on her part to rush him. So, she turned to Vermont and said, “Can you tell him to work on Stella’s case first?”
Vermont agreed without spewing any nonsense. Felicity went silent again after that. She was usually a chatterbox, but no words could come out of her mouth at that moment. Whenever she looked at Vermont, she would get inexplicably awkward and uncomfortable because she would think about the strange kiss they had shared earlier.
“Have you had breakfast yet?” Vermont asked in a warm tone. “Do you wanna grab something to eat together?”
Felicity cleared her throat and said in a low voice, “No, thanks. I have to go run some errands. Bye.” As she said that, she grabbed her phone and left in a hurry.
Vermont watched her walk out the door and leaned against the table. Then, he gently rubbed his thumb over his lips and smiled.
Suddenly, his phone vibrated. It was a message from Yosef. [ You beast!]
Vermont smirked and said, [I’ll take that as a compliment.]
Meanwhile, Stella was having breakfast and looking through the haters’ comments. [This bitch clearly got her face done. Look at how high her cheekbones are! Why would anyone think she’s pretty?]
Upon reading that, Stella paused and touched her cheekbones. She gently kicked Keegan, who was across the dining table, to get his attention. ‘ Does it look like I had plastic surgery?” she asked.
Keegan glanced at her, continued checking his emails, and said, “No. I don’t think the current technology in plastic surgery could reach this level of detail which allows you to make smooth micro- expressions.”
“That’s good,” Stella said, giving him a thumbs up. Then, she read out one of the comments. “Honestly, I don’t think anyone would ever fall for her solely based on her looks.”
Keegan casually took a bite of his oatmeal and said,” Honesty, I think that’s because none of them are of age yet.”
