Chapter 316
So, did this mean that I could have some private time with Colin? Would this be our first
official date?
This was quite tempting.
Our love was still in the probationary period and still needed further nurturing and understanding.
However, there were too many unpleasant things that had happened in his house. Just thinking about it gave me a headache. I really didn’t want to go there.
Colin was gently coaxing me with his soft and soothing voice, making my head spin. Before I knew it, the car had stopped in front of his house.
I felt useless just thinking about it. I was easily persuaded with just a few words.
The advertisements posted on the doors and windows of my house were still there. It wasn’t that no one was interested in buying my house but that there hadn’t been suitable buyers.
Since we were not rushing to sell it off, it was fine to wait. After living there for over 20 years, my attachment was particularly deep.
Deep down, I knew I wanted to hand it over to the most suitable person.
The weather had been extremely cold lately. The only greenery was the vines in the small garden. Everything else had withered away.
Standing at the entrance, I suddenly felt a sense of estrangement even though I had only been away for a few days.
“Why don’t you go in?” Colin bent down to ask in my ear as he reached from behind me to
unlock the door.
His warm breath on my neck made me feel ticklish all over.
Suddenly, my heart started racing. Heat rushed to my head, making my cheeks feel like they
were on fire.
I had been alone with Colin before, but my parents were always at home.
In an empty and quiet house like this, it was only natural for anyone to feel nervous- especially for two lovebirds with a budding romance.

As soon as we entered his house, Colin pushed me toward his room.
I swore I tried to struggle, but I was too weak. The scent emanating from him made my legs turn to jelly. I was no match for him at all as he pressed me directly onto his single bed.
As soon as I touched the bed, I sprang up like a string, my heart pounding.
If it weren’t for Colin’s quick reflexes, I might have hit his jaw. That would’ve left us both injured or worse, bleeding.
“Oh, Colin, my mom needs me for something. I think I’d better go back.” I reached for my purse with a flustered feeling.
I was not being dramatic. My mind was just in turmoil. Those scenes from the novels I read flashed through my mind like the movies, each frame making me blush and heart race.
I didn’t know what he was thinking, but my heart was in chaos.
Was it desire? Fear? Fondness? Affection? I couldn’t articulate exactly what I was feeling, but simply put, I wanted to uphold the principles my mom taught me while keeping the mysterious sense of anticipation.
Maybe my thoughts were too straightforward and my emotions were written all over my face, allowing Colin to understand my thoughts.
He unexpectedly reached out to support my shoulder with one hand and supported himself
on the headboard with the other. He trapped me between his embrace and the headboard. Our faces were less than a fist’s distance apart, but he was laughing like a sly fox.
I hadn’t expected this situation at all. What should I do?
I grabbed my collar with my right hand and moved to the side before muttering irritably,” Stop laughing.”
He laughed even harder as he leaned forward. I was overpowered by him as he pushed me
onto the bed.
Before I could react, his scent enveloped me. My face was searing hot.
