Chapter 543
If she lingered too long, she risked being discovered.
Black Jack shot a warning glare at the man on the bed and made a gesture that said, ‘Behave, or I’ll slit your throat p>
The man’s thin lips curved upward slightly as he mouthed silently, “Thank you. Good work p>
Black Jack was at a loss for words.
She clenched her fists.
With a single movement, she vaulted out of Serena’s window and disappeared silently into the night.
About ten minutes later.
Serena emerged from the bathroom, wreathed in steam and a cool, sweet fragrance.
She was wearing a silk robe that clung softly to her skin. Her long, ink-black hair was dripping wet, and she casually dried it with a towel draped over her head.
In the steam, the girl’s exquisite, makeup-free face looked somewhat softer.
But the moment she stepped out of the bathroom p>
The relaxed look in her eyes hardened, and her clear, bright gaze fell upon her princess bed.
A tall, elegant man was lounging on the pink and white lace bed. His collar was slightly open, revealing a wide expanse of pale, well-defined chest muscles and a pair of sharp, straight collarbones.
His posture was utterly relaxed.
Hearing the sound, he looked up at Serena, his stunning, deep-set eyes curving into
a smile. The devilish grin on his lips was completely undisguised.
“Serena p>
In this suggestive time, suggestive place, and suggestive atmosphere, the man’s low, husky voice sounded especially bewitching.
He looked just like a seductive peacock showing off its feathers.
Serena paused her hair-drying. “Nicholas, what are you doing here p>
A low, magnetic laugh escaped Nicholas’s throat.
His gaze fell on the girl’s dripping hair.
A water droplet traced a path down her collarbone and slowly descended.
The robe’s belt wasn’t tied very tightly, and the droplet disappeared into the slightly open neckline.
Nicholas’s eyes darkened a few shades.
His Adam’s apple bobbed. His gaze was tender, and the smile on his lips deepened. “Serena, I think… that’s my line p>
He shifted slightly, showing off the ropes that bound him, and lifted his lips into a dazzling, captivating smile. “You had someone tie me up and put me on your bed. Am I to understand that this is a hint Serena p>
Serena was speechless.
She walked over and yanked on the man’s bound hands. “The great heir of the Blackwood family… untying these ropes shouldn’t be difficult for You
Nicholas beamed, his stunning eyes crinkling. “But as soon as I heard I was being tied up for Serena, I couldn’t seem to untie them p>
Serena was speechless. Damn flirt!
Her fingers flicked casually at the knots a couple of times, and the ropes fell away.
She pointed to the open window. “Climb out. Get out p>
Nicholas, however, showed no intention of getting off the bed. Instead, he shifted into a more comfortable, languid position.
As he moved p>
His collar fell open even wider, revealing more of his well-defined physique.
It was utterly captivating.
“Serena~ You had me tied up.
Shouldn’t you take responsibility for
the
S aftermath?” He tilted his head,
his bewitching face framed by a lazy expression.
Serena raised a hand and threw the damp towel from her head onto the man’s. “Go
find whoever tied you up and hold them responsible p>
“Are you sure?” Nicholas chuckled, his well-defined fingers catching the towel on his face as he lazily propped himself up.
Serena was speechless.
She could pretty much guess which genius was responsible for this.
Other than Black Jack p>
There was probably no one else who was so audacious and so reckless.
