Chapter 230 You Pressed the Bath Towel
The places touched by her fingers seemed to heat up, and his breathing became irregular for a moment.
However, Penny continued to earnestly apply the ointment, ensuring she didn't miss any spots. Then she picked up the bandages, intending to rewrap them.
But just like before, this bandaging action required her to lean in, bringing them even closer, almost entangled in each other's breaths.
Orlando turned his head away, furrowing his brows.
Penny knew he didn't like being too close to the opposite sex, so she increased the speed of her movements.
As the bandage reached its final circle, she breathed a sigh of relief. However, her exhalation brushed against Orlando's skin, causing him to push his hand backward involuntarily.
"Mr. Fletcher, it's done."
Feeling slightly uncomfortable, Penny hurriedly tried to step back.
But because Orlando's hand pushed back, coincidentally pressing against the corner of the bath towel, the towel was caught and slipped off completely as she moved back. Orlando turned around, only to see a bath towel approaching.
Penny panicked and instinctively used the bath towel to block his line of sight.
Orlando didn't say anything; his Adam's apple bobbed.
"Perry, what are you doing?"
Penny was now completely naked, using the bath towel to cover his face, trying to avoid embarrassment.
But Orlando's question made her feel hot all over.
She had no choice but to pretend to speak softly, "You pressed the bath towel."
She had acted too hastily and instinctively wanted to shield his eyes.
But now that she realized it, using her bath towel to cover his face was highly offensive.
But her clothes were still soaking in the bathroom, and she couldn't wear them. She felt so embarrassed that she wanted to find a hole to hide in.
Orlando didn't say anything and took off the towel from his head.
"Mr. Fletcher, don't..."
Penny was extremely embarrassed but saw that he had his eyes closed and was handing her the towel.
She froze, hearing him ask gently, "Don't want it?"
Penny quickly grabbed the towel and wrapped herself up again.
She felt the temperature around her rise and was about to melt from the heat.
Orlando's action was very gentlemanly. With his eyes closed, he could only hear the sound of her hurriedly wrapping the towel.
The scent of shower gel still lingered in the air, and her gentle breathing was like music that lured and caressed his ears.
After Penny finished wrapping herself up, she couldn't help but look up at him.
He still had his eyes closed, with beautiful brows like mountains, untouched by the world.
He could be called the most dazzling beauty.
When Penny became silent, Orlando guessed she was done and opened his eyes.
Penny didn't expect him to open his eyes suddenly, and their gazes met instantly.
She had been staring at his face, and although it was only a few seconds, she now felt embarrassed, as if she had been caught doing something wrong.
She quickly looked away, coughing uneasily.
"It's okay, Mr. Fletcher."
In other words, you can leave now.
But Orlando didn't move. In his eyes, this woman was flushed all over, her hair was messy and draped over her shoulders, her small face was full of anxiety, and her eyes were still clear and rippling like they were that night.
Perhaps it was the sound of rain outside that was too teasing. Orlando lowered his eyelashes, stood up, lifted a strand of hair from her ear and tucked it behind.
Penny was so frightened that she didn't dare move. She held her breath and was about to ask what he was doing when an incredible kiss followed the curve of her earlobe down.
Her pupils dilated slightly, and she felt like her mind had gone blank. All she could hear was the sound of rain outside.
