RedNovelChapter 155 Chapter 155: "You're back." Khloe walked over to stand beside him, her gaze following his previous line of sight. A teasing smile curled her lips. "What were you looking at earlier? Is something out there catching your attention?" She leaned in slightly, and Henrik lowered his head, a tender smile on his face as his hand rested on her head. "I was watching you," he replied, his voice soft with affection.
Khloe tilted her head up, her alluring eyes shimmering with a unique ripple. She stood on her tiptoes and rested her head on his shoulder. From Henrik's viewpoint, he could clearly see the spot where she had entered the house, likely from when she had stepped out of the car.
"You're quite the smooth talker, Henrik. Have you used this line to win over many women?" Khloe said, her smile playful and teasing.

Khloe hadn't expected that answer, and a strange feeling stirred in her chest. Had he really used this line on someone else? Who could it have been? Khloe's thoughts drifted aimlessly, her mind slipping from her control. She was so caught up in her thoughts that she didn't even realize she was nervously nibbling on her lower lip as she leaned against him.
Henrik glanced over his shoulder, his once-cold demeanor melting into a softer, more inviting presence as he noticed her nibbling on her lip. His hand gently moved to her waist, pulling her closer until she was seated on his lap.
"Why do you bite your lip? It's a bad habit; you should stop," Henrik said, his eyes smiling warmly. His fingers brushed against her soft lips, interrupting her nervous habit and bringing her back to the present.
Khloe subtly shifted away from Henrik's embrace, moving to the sofa beside him. She quickly changed the subject, steering clear of his earlier comment about using the trick on someone else.
"I had a meeting with Tess today. There's a show, Against All Odds, that's interested in havingon board. Also, the lead role for Peaks of Eternity has been cast, and it's Rafael Carter, the well-known actor. His involvement will surely boost the production's publicity." ☐☐tist chiptors in gl.☐☐☐ Khloe's voice was soft yet clear, carrying a warmth that felt like the first thaw of spring. Henrik was especially drawn to her calm, peaceful aura, as if her presence alone could soothe the storm inside him. His fingers rested lightly on the back of the sofa behind her, his eyes fixed on her, a quiet smile tugging at his lips. The room was serene and cozy, the gentle orange light filling the space with warmth and comfort.
As Khloe wrapped up her words, she realized Henrik had been watching her the entire time. Her ears turned a faint shade of red, and a glimmer of amusement sparkled in her eyes.
"Why are you looking atlike that?" she asked, raising an eyebrow.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmHenrik replied nonchalantly, "Because you're beautiful." Leaning in closer, he teased Khloe, his eyes shifting between her gaze and lips. "When I met you on the street and asked you to be my fiancée, I truly found a gem." Khloe's fingers held Henrik back from getting any closer, her eyes betraying a hint of helplessness. She couldn't understand what had gotten into him today, making him so intentionally charming. He was already irresistibly handsome, and his playful teasing was hard to resist. If she hadn't spent so much twith him lately, building sresistance, she would've blushed and been flustered by his advances.

I'm not your real fiancée, so there's no need for all this emotional attention) If you really want to help, focus on shutting down the discussions about the surgery at Zhecrora University.

Henrik reluctantly turned his gaze away, mentally dismissing Rhett's earlier suggestion. That troublemaker had suggested that Khloe wouldn surely fall for Rafael, advising Henrik to make an effort to win her over to prevent their fake engagement from falling apart. Henrik now saw it for what it was-nonsense. Despite his efforts to seduce her, Khloe remained unshaken and unaffected, making it clear she wouldn't be swayed by Rafael. mmMwWLlilofiflo&1 mmMwWLlilofiflo&1 mmMwWLlilofiflo&1 mmMwWLlilofiflo&1 mmMwWLliIofifl0&1 mmMwWLlilofiflo&1
