Chapter 42
Emma was thinking about it when, suddenly, there was movement from Liam behind her. His hot hand wrapped around her waist from the side, delving deeper into her fitted nightgown and tracing over her flat belly, his fingers exerting force.
Emma felt his hand moving upward, soon touching the area above her belly. It tickled, but she couldn’t resist as she was pretending to be asleep, so she had to let his hand roam.
She did her best to maintain her steady heartbeat and breathing until Liam’s kisses landed.
All she could be sure

Realizing what he might be about to do to her at any moment, Emma was about to lose control of her heartbeat. Suddenly just then, Liam’s tongue pried open her teeth..
She thought at first that it was just a normal kiss until she felt that he was consciously rubbing the tip of his tongue delicately over her front teeth, and an idea suddenly exploded in her mind–she overlooked a crucial detail; she left a bite mark on his hand, and now he was confirming the shape of her teeth.
At the thought, Emma’s heartbeat snapped up instantly, whereas breathing and demeanor could be controlled, trying to control the rate of her heartbeat was not so easy. Liam quickly sensed her nervousness, his voice muffled. “Awake?”
“Well… How am I supposed to sleep when you’re kissing me like that?” Emma said.
“I thought you were going to pretend to be asleep.” Liam’s half–joking tone made it hard to gauge what he was really thinking. “To avoid me make out with you.”
“It’s not like we can’t make out.” Emma maintained her composure. “Mr. Hall. Do you want it?”
“Very much so.” What Liam really wanted to say was, “I’ve been thinking making out with you for a long time. Since the day you moved into my house, my mind has been filled with all sorts of images like this‘ He had restrained himself for so long, and it was already the limit of his strong willpower. He thought to himself, “You don’t want me to know your secret but it’s fine if I tell you mine.”
Feeling Liam’s breathing becoming more and more rapid, Emma felt a bit nervous. Just as Liam was about to move his whole body and flip over to press her down fiercely, she suddenly burrowed into his embrace, hugged his waist, and at the same time, lay him on his side on the bed. “Don’t worry. We have a long life ahead to make out.”
Her sudden embrace took Liam by surprise, interrupting his original action, and there was a moment of silence in the air. Their bodies were pressed together, and even the rise and fall of each other’s breath could be clearly felt.
She felt his hot, big hand stop moving. After a while, he also hugged her from behind, indulgently patting her shoulder gently.
Emma was still thinking about last night’s events when she went to class the next day. If it hadn’t been for her sudden move last night, Liam might have already revealed the secret of his legs/it was not that she didn’t want him to be honest, but if he was open and she kept her secret, she would feel guilty.
“Just wait a little longer… thought she.
The atmosphere in the classroom today was a bit strange. Emma sensed that everyone seemed to be whispering about something, yet they deliberately avoided her. It wasn’t until after the first class in the morning that the homeroom teacher personally came to Emma’s classroom door. “Emma, come with me to the office now.”
Upon arriving at the office, Emma was met by two uniformed police officers. She glanced at the homeroom teacher, and the officers said, “We’ve received a call from your parents saying your sister has been missing for at least three days and nights. Have you seen your sister, or
perhaps do you have any information about her?
She said, “Hasn’t she been arrested? How could she be missing?”
“I seem to have heard about it, but I didn’t care about it, thinking it was just a rumor. After all, seeing is believing.” Emma didn’t lie. Even yesterday at the abandoned villa, she didn’t see Aria with her own eyes; she was merely guessing based on various pieces of information that Aria might be there. But before she could enter the villa, she was already entangled by Liam and his men. So, she didn’t have absolute
