Chapter 326 Ouch! I gasped in surprise.

A strong hand gripped my arm and pulledaway. I looked up to see an unfamiliar face. The moment he saw me, his expression turned panicked. Without a word, he releasedand ran off.

Rubbing my sore forehead, I watched his hurried retreat and then glanced back at Lisa's office. It dawned onthat this man must have been eavesdropping at the door and was so engrossed that he didn't no So, this man... Was he the person with the usern"My Heart Longs for Lisa" and the real n"Your Missed Lover"? Brandon approachedwhile I was lost in thought. As I was about to walk toward him, I heard Lisa's voice from inside, "Keith, I'm hungry now." That madesmile.

Lisa was quite skilled at switching between aloof and affectionate. She knew how to handle things.

"What's so funny?" Brandon asked softly.

"Lisa and Mr. Marrow are officially together." I pointed behind me.

He glanced briefly and then took my hand. "Let's head back." "Is it okay to leave Ellie alone?" I still had concerns despite having spoken to Lisa.

"She'll be fine," he reassured me. "She's been independent for years back home." His words maderealize Ellie had always been self-reliant despite her delicate appearance.

Feeling reassured by Brandon's confidence, I relaxed. Then, we headed home.

Throughout the drive, Brandon was quiet. I assumed he was still worried about Ellie's surgery, so I stayed silent.

After we got out of the car and went up to our apartment, he was still holding my hand. I tried to pull away slightly, but he didn't let go.

I shook his hand, which was still tightly clasped with mine. "What's this about?" "Open the door!" Brandon's commanding tone was a rare display of dominance.

The meaning was clear. I decided to tease him for acting all serious. "Mr. Howell, we're not married yet. Isn't this a bit inappropriate?" His Adam's apple bobbed as he took a step closer, forcingto retreat until I was pressed against the door. He leaned in, and his nose almost touched mine. "How can we have a baby if we don't try? How will we know if I was speechless.

He actually took my jokes seriously.

It was true that men could be quite petty. Was there any way to change that? With him so close, I could see the fiery determination in his eyes. It was clear he was set on getting what he wanted tonight..

However, thinking about his behavior in front of Ellie, I felt like giving him a good lesson.

"You said it's inappropriate before marriage and that a girl should protect herself." I traced circles on his chest with my fingers.

Brandon, knowing I was teasing him, spoke in a husky voice. You don't need to protect yourself. I'll protect n you." With that, he tilted his head to kiss me.

I dodged, and after several attempts, his breath grew heavy. "Mae, be good." "No." I refused.

He had lefthanging for days in his hometown. I wasn't t going to give in so easily now just because he wanted it. "Mae..." Brandon's voice was soft and weak. "Are you angry?" So, he understood.

I admitted candidly. "Yes, I'm angry. It's because of how you treatedbefore."

Seeing I was serious, he rested his mine forehead against mine and asked helplessly, How long are you going to stay angry?" "I don't know." X
