CHAPTER 67: CHAPTER 67: WON’T LET ME DIE EASILY

Her heart involuntarily began to race, she... she simply didn’t have the capability to save him, did she!

But at this moment, even a fool would know to answer him accordingly.

"If I had the ability to save you, of course... uh, I would save you," she said. But Mabel Quinn felt that what she said was meaningless, since she’s not a doctor; even if he had some hidden illness, she couldn’t save him!

But evidently, her answer brightened his mood; the oppressive aura around him seemed to have subsided, and even his eyes seemed to carry a hint of a smile.

His fingers lingered on her lips, gently touching them, making her lips feel even more scorching.

"Can you let go of Katie’s boyfriend?" she took the opportunity to steer the conversation back to her initial goal.

His thick, dark eyelashes fluttered slightly, and two words slowly escaped his thin lips, "Kiss me."

Wha?

Mabel Quinn’s jaw dropped, staring blankly at the handsome face so close to hers, seriously doubting if she had misheard.

"Kiss me, and I will grant your wish, let that journalist go," he said, his slender fingers leaving her lips, as if giving her a choice.

Mabel Quinn never expected Kyle Kinston to make such a request, to kiss him... kiss this seemingly unattainable man. Even if they had once been intimate, she still couldn’t imagine what kissing him would be like.

"Do you really want me to kiss you?" she asked uncertainly.

"What else?" he retorted.

A kiss... is actually a very simple action, merely the contact of lips, but aside from that forced kiss when they first met, she had no kissing experience, let alone taking the initiative to kiss someone else.

But on second thought, if all she had to do was kiss him in exchange for Katie and her boyfriend to be free from Kyle Kinston’s influence, then it seemed worthwhile no matter how she calculated it.

Taking a deep breath, Mabel Quinn kept preparing herself mentally. After all, it wasn’t her first time kissing Kyle Kinston. Besides, from another perspective, maybe kissing Kyle Kinston was a gain for her, considering how many people out there would love to kiss this CEO.

Mabel Quinn thought very optimistically to herself and suddenly gathered courage. She cupped Kyle Kinston’s face, stood on her tiptoes, and kissed his lips.

The touch of lips was softer than she imagined.

She closed her eyes, feeling as if only a few seconds had passed, yet also feeling like it had been an eternity... Just as her lips were about to part from his, suddenly his hand gripped the back of her head, and his lips pressed heavily on hers again.

Mabel Quinn opened her eyes in a bit of a panic, only to see his long eyelashes.

At such a close distance, she could only see his closed eyes, feeling his long and domineering kiss. His kiss seemed to be taking everything from her, making her heart race in confusion.

No one knew how long it lasted, but as the kiss ended, his eyelids slowly opened, his dark eyes reflecting her face, "Mabel Quinn, don’t forget what you said today. When the day comes that you have the ability to save me, you won’t easily let me die."

She stiffly nodded, but felt that what he said sounded like a fantasy. Someone as ordinary as her, what ability would she ever have to save him?
