SWNOVELS Chapter 126
Chapter: 126
No one would come to save her. Ever…
Ariana trembled violently. She reminded herself to never be afraid over and over, and yet she broke out
in a cold sweat all over. Her breath came faster and faster until her mind went blank.
She didn’t dare to move a single inch, fearing that she would be swallowed by and lost in the all-
consuming darkness.
Just when she was about to reach the deepest depths of desperation, the door suddenly burst open.
The dazzling light that suddenly shone into her eyes made her more uncomfortable, causing her to
raise her hands in resistance and her tears trickle down faster
Amidst the blinding light, the familiar sound of a wheelchair moving could be heard. Confused, she
looked at the man sitting in it and cried out his name in disbelief. “Theodore?”
And, indeed, it was him! Theodore slowly rolled into the room in his wheelchair. His handsome face
was cold, his deep eyes devoid of all emotion. Anyone could tell just by looking at him that he was in a
bad mood. @
Theodore pursed his lips tightly. Half of his body remained numb because of the attack of the taser.
Although he wanted to punish Ariana for being so difficult, any resentment he had toward her melted as
soon as he saw her tear-filled eyes and wounded forehead. Instead, his fury was replaced with regret
and sadness. @
After a moment of silence, he took off his coat and put it on Ariana. Not knowing what else to do, he
patted her gently on the shoulder and said, “It’s alright now. I’m here.”
Once he finished reassuring her everything would be okay, the still tearful Ariana quickly threw herself
into his arms and kissed his lips. @
The brief kiss sobered Ariana up.
Once she regained her senses, her eyes bulged out of the sockets. She moved her head back
immediately.
What did she just do? She sat on Theodore’s lap and kissed him!
Was she out of her mind?
Ariana’s cheeks turned red as shame surged inside her.
She stood up and wanted to run away. However, Theodore grabbed her by the waist and sat her back
down. In a split second, he held her chin and kissed her passionately. @
They shared a breath as Theodore sucked her tongue. Ariana felt like a fish who just swallowed the
bait. Struggling with him would be futile, so she only clung to his shirt and let him do his thing. Seconds
passed and she couldn’t help kissing him back.
The two of them were lost in an abyss of passion when a dry cough suddenly broke the silence.
Startled, Ariana broke the kiss, stood up, and looked at the person at the door.
“Ermm, I just thought to say that there are cameras in the room.” Horace pointed at the cameras at the
different corners of the ceiling. A smile was playing at the corners of his lips.
He then left, leaving the embarrassed couple alone.
Ariana held her burning cheeks and didn’t say anything for a long time. She couldn’t face him. After
summoning the courage, she asked, “Why are you here?”
Theodore was surprisingly calm. He seemed different from the man who just kissed her so hard.
Without uttering a word, he took out his phone and showed Ariana a photo. @
It was the same one Jasper sent to him. The backs of Ariana and Adrian were captured.
