Chapter 67 Make Her Heartbeat Erratic
Surprised for a moment, Corrine raised her eyes to meet Nate's. A gentle smile slowly formed on her lips.
Nate had a knack for anticipating her needs, a quality that seemed almost mystic. On that fateful day, drenched
from the rain after her breakup with Bruce, Nate had appeared with a coat, draping it over her shoulders as he
said, "You need it more than | do."
Now, another of his coats was a warm barrier against the cold.
The coat had a distinct, earthy scent that was unmistakably Nate's, making Corrine's heart race wildly.
She pulled the coat tighter around her, inhaling deeply, her senses tingling
with his scent.
"What cologne are you wearing, Nate?" she asked suddenly, instantly feeling the weight of her impulsive

She bit her tongue in regret, wondering what had possessed her to say something so random.
Amusement tinged Nate's response, breaking through her internal scolding. "It's custom-made. If you want, I'll
have Matias send sover tomorrow."
Corrine averted her eyes and murmured, "No, it's not right for me."
"Why not try it before deciding it's not for you?" Nate replied, his smile deepening mysteriously. "To live truly is

Opting for silence, Nate pondered her question before replying, "Honestly, I've always seen your appearance in
my life as an unexpected twist."
"An unexpected twist?" Corrine's voice carried a chill as she frowned.

Or was he driven by a deeper yearning to conquer?
As she turned to walk away, Nate quickly followed, trying to keep up.
"Letgo!" Corrine protested fiercely.
Nate's embrace was a mix of tenderness and insistence as he drew her closer. "Just listen tofirst."
"We have nothing left to discuss!" Corrine snapped back, her voice filled with anger.
She cas an unexpected twist in his life. But if that was true, what was the purpose of his recent pursuit?
What were those dinners about? And the roses by her bedside, what were they supposed to mean?

"Con, I'll drive you home."
As they made their way across the street, Nate subtly pulled her closer by
the waist.
Corrine glanced at him with raised eyebrows.
She couldn't deny it-Nate had a knack for testing boundaries.
How much longer could her heart resist?
