The Perfect Thief novel Chapter 89

Chapter 0089 Some even started to dance with their partners as well ! You speak pretty words , Mr.

Landry , I teased as he twirled me around again .

This time he twirled me a bit faster , and I nearly lost my footing .

I had to wrap an arm around his neck to keep myself steady and it only brought my body that much closer to his .

My breath got caught in my throat when we wound up only inches from one another , our breaths intermingling with one another .

I only speak the truth , Miss Montague , he replied , dipping me low again .

When the song ended , we received some claps and I smiled , giving the audience a short wave .

Walter chuckled and guided me away from everyone .

We took a short walk , staring up at the sparkling stars and the bright moon that shined above us .

Such a beautiful night , I said thoughtfully .

It certainly is , he agreed .

He wrapped an around me , pulling me into him .

I gave him an awkward smile ; now that we werent around others and we were no longer dancing , the close proximity felt weird .

Thank you for coming with me tonight .

You have made tonight quite enjoyable , he told me sincerely .noveldrama

I had a nice night as well , Walter , I told him .

Thank you .

We stopped walking and he turned to face me .

You are very beautiful , he told me , brushing a strand of hair out of my face .

Im sorry if I came off a little strong last night .

My intention wasnt to scare you .

I blushed at the memory ; he tried to kiss me , and I turned my head away from him , shielding the kiss .

It wasnt that I was scared , I told him .

I wasnt ready .

He looked at me thoughtfully for a moment .

Because of Ethan ? I was stunned by his words ; I wanted to step away , but he was holding me close to him .

Im sorry , what ? I asked , my eyes wide and filled with alarm .

I know about you two , he admitted .

I had Maxwell look into it .

You are mates .

Why would you look into that ? I asked in a harsh whisper .

Im sorry if I overstepped .

But I could tell something was wrong , he told me quickly .

I am not trying to upset you or hurt you , Judy .

I just wanted to understand you .
