Aurora Walton and Lucas Carter novel Chapter 1619

Otherwise, he honestly didn’t know how he would’ve handled the night.

So many reporters were already watching her every move.

If anyone caught a photo of this, it would turn into a scandal overnight.

And with her still filming a reality show, any negative attention could ruin her reputation in an instant.

Thinking of that, Edwin quickened his pace, holding Yvonne tighter in his arms.

He gently laid her across the back seat, making sure she was comfortable before getting into the driver’s seat and heading home.

Luckily, he owned several properties in Bustin City, any one of which was safe enough that no journalist could trace.

But just as they arrived and he carried her inside, Yvonne suddenly stirred awake.

She staggered straight to the couch and began tugging at her clothes.

“It’s so hot… didn’t you turn on the air conditioner?” she mumbled.

Startled, Edwin hurried to switch it on. But when he turned back and saw her fumbling with her dress, he rushed over to stop her.

“Hey, don’t—stop that.”

His ears burned red instantly. Watching her move like that made his heart pound uncontrollably.

This was the woman he liked.

Seeing her act so unaware and vulnerable was almost too much for his composure.

Even a saint would’ve struggled to keep his composure, he thought grimly. And he was no saint—just a man fighting to keep control.

But Yvonne didn’t notice any of it. She kept pulling at her clothes, muttering incoherently, “Where’s the air conditioner? Why is it still so hot?

“What is wrong with these clothes. Why won’t they come off?”

She thought she was in her own apartment, completely oblivious to the situation.
