Chapter 165 Bumped Into His Arms
No one knew if it was a coincidence. At this moment, Byron stepped forward, trying to cross the gap between Cora and
Carter.
So Cora bumped into Byron’s arms accidentally. Byron
was probably out of politeness or something else, and he
stretched out his hand to support her waist.
At that moment, the people around were stunned, and even a
breath sound be heard.
Cora was nervous, feeling like her heart was about to jump
into her mouth.
It might be because of the memory of Byron’s touch on her body. She was greedy for the temperature on his palm. So she didn’t break free from his arms but just looked up at him
blankly.
Byron was also looking down at her. His deep eyes were only
her reflection.
The smell of his frequently-used aftershave and a faint smell of tobacco lingered in her nose. It was something Cora missed the most during this week in Clamville.
For a moment, Cora couldn’t help but want to put her arms around his neck and kiss him to express her deep thoughts on
him in the most direct ways.

But at this moment, Sally’s apology suddenly sounded in her
ears.
“Mr. Hansen, I’m sorry. I accidentally bumped into Cora and caused this. Sorry.”
Sally bowed to Byron and apologized. At the same time, she quickly dragged Cora away from his hand.
“Please forgive me. I know you are a tolerant man…” Sally kept speaking and dragged Cora behind her, using her body to
hide Cora.
Byron’s face was gloomy. But she caused this trouble. Although she feared him, she didn’t want to implicate Cora.
Unexpectedly, Byron looked gloomy, but he didn’t get angry with Sally. He even ordered Carter, “Tell the waiter to add two
more seats.”
After saying that, he walked into the restaurant.
“Does this mean that we are going to have dinner with them?”
When Sally was thinking about it in a daze, Carter had already nodded to Byron in response and said, “Well, let’s go.
Mr. Hansen has added two seats.”
Chapter 165 Bumped Into His Arms
Cora and Sally dared not to decline Byron’s arrangement, They could only enter the restaurant and sit at the same dining table with these big shots,
But the arrangement of the seating positions made Sally feel confused, Cora was arranged to sit beside Byron, and Sally sat between Cora and Carter, Sally thought she was a third
wheel.
She could not help thinking, “Is it because I have sinned against Byron just now, so they just arranged the seating positions like this?”
But her attention was quickly attracted by the various delicacies on the dining table. She only cared about eating and stopped thinking about the brief interlude,
Cora picked a slice of pancake. While eating it, she felt someone stroking her lap under the dining table.
“Mr. Hansen, this project would have been ruined if I hadn’t received your support.”
“I’m flattered. It’s just for mutual benefit.”
The soft lighting fell on Byron’s face. His appearance was charming, and there was an inherently noble aura on his body. He looked like the young king, reserved, polite, and
intelligent.

He talked to others with a gentle smile and calm tone, but
under the table, he stroked her lap and teased her.
They had not met each other for a week, let alone had any intimate contact. Under Byron’s hot palm, Cora almost
couldn’t help trembling.
But Byron didn’t stop. He kept teasing her. Cora’s hands shook and spilled the juice.
The sudden sound made everyone look at her, including
Byron.

Chapter 166 Teased Him
Byron’s eyes were gloomy. Cora couldn’t see through his mind.
He asked her casually, as if they were strangers, “What’s the
matter?”
The slight rise in the end voice contained a bit of mischievous
gloating.
Cora was so angry that she blushed and wanted to bite him at once. How could he flirt with her under the table?
But there were so many people at the dining table. They were looking at her. Her relationship with him would be exposed if she dared to teach Byron a lesson.
She couldn’t bear the consequences, so she had to bite the bullet and hold back her anger. “Nothing, I just accidentally knocked over the glass.”
Her appearance pleased Byron. He smiled c olly, “Be careful next time. Don’t be rash.”
Then, he picked up a fork to eat with the hand that had stroked her lap just now.
