Chapter 860:
The setting sun filtered through the car window, casting a glow on Yelena’s face. Her eyes shone with a clarity that mirrored the stars, bright and full of sparkle. Her skin radiated with a soft, pink glow, and her lips, slightly pursed, had a natural moisture to them. The subtle furrow of her brow seemed to convey her thoughts to him.
Austin’s eyebrows twitched slightly. The next second, his intense gaze locked with Yelena’s, and without a word, he grabbed her waist and pulled her towards him.
Yelena was taken by surprise, her body stumbling into his embrace. Her heart raced in her chest, an unexpected rush of emotions overwhelming her as she felt the warmth of his closeness.
At that moment, Austin’s voice sounded from above Yelena’s head. “Yelena, I’m serious. This is the first time I’ve fallen in love with a girl. You don’t have to answer me right away. No matter how long it takes, I’ll wait p>
Yelena’s eyes widened in surprise as she gazed at Austin, her expression a mix of disbelief and curiosity.
They continued to stare at each other, and Yelena sensed a strong emotion surging from the depths of his eyes.
They were in very close proximity, and Austin’s warm breath brushed gently against Yelena’s cheek. It made her feel as though all the blood in her body was rushing to her face, and she felt like she had been set on fire.
Nervously, Yelena licked her lips.
Austin’s eyes darkened, a jolt of electricity shooting up his spine and sending a shiver through him. It made the hairs on the back of his neck stand up.

Unable to resist the urge in his heart, his lips gently inched closer to hers…
A tingling sensation overwhelmed Yelena’s senses. The grip of Austin’s large, warm hand, which was holding her slender waist, gradually intensified…
After a long, breathless moment, the two reluctantly separated, their faces flushed and their breaths uneven.
Yelena breathed heavily, her starry eyes still searching Austin’s face, as if trying to comprehend the whirlwind of emotions that had just unfolded.
Austin gently tucked a stray lock of hair from Yelena’s forehead, tucking it behind her ear. Out of breath, he gazed at her and asked quietly, “Now, can you feel how sincere I am p>
Yelena regained her composure, panic flashing in her eyes. She shoved Austin away, quickly opened the car door, and ran off.
Austin watched Yelena run off with a small smile, then softly muttered, “I’ll wait for you p>
As soon as Austin returned home, he called out, “Mom, I’m back.” Maggie, holding a feather duster, walked toward Austin with red-rimmed eyes, as though she’d been crying.
She pointed the feather duster at him and sternly ordered, “You troublemaker, get down on your knees p>
Austin glanced at Maggie, realizing that he might have gone too far, and that her reaction was likely a sign of her disappointment. “Mom, let me explain p>
Before Austin could finish his sentence, several swift blows landed on him, courtesy of Maggie’s feather duster.
Maggie was genuinely furious. It was rare for her to hit Austin, as she usually preferred to reason with him whenever he made mistakes as a child. Today, however, she was hitting Austin out of pure, unfiltered anger.
