Chapter 25 This Is Her First Kiss!
Alexander's deep eyes, illuminated by the slightly yellow car lights, gazed into hers as he gently asked her, "Tomorrow, my parents are coming back to Rihegde. Come home with me to meet them, okay?"
Over the past couple of weeks, Victoria had started to get used to having him around.
Today, she even thought of her place as their place.
Victoria lowered her head, thought for a few seconds, then looked up and said, "Okay."
She was still a bit hesitant, worried, and scared, mainly fearing what if his parents didn't like her?
Just as this thought crossed her mind, Alexander's comforting voice sounded in her ears, "Don't worry. My parents will definitely like you. They are very easygoing."
Dylan, who was driving in the front, heard this and chimed in with a smile, "Mrs. Howard, Mr. Howard is right. They are both pleasant. I guarantee it with my bonus for the second half of the year."
It was true; anyone in the Howard family could feel it.
"See? Even Dylan guarantees it. He usually cares most about his bonus." Alexander said, nodding slightly at Dylan's back.
Victoria chuckled softly, took a deep breath, and said, "With you here, I really have nothing to fear."
This sentence was very comforting to Alexander. At least from this, it seemed Victoria had begun to rely on him, which made him very happy.
After that, Alexander started talking to her about his parents. It turned out they often traveled and were rarely at home. From Alexander's words, she learned that his father, Preston Howard, loved his mother, Saskia Cooper, very much. They were very happy and enjoyed life.
In fact, she was quite envious of him having such a family, with loving parents and a harmonious home.
Unknowingly, the car stopped in front of her apartment building.
When Alexander escorted her to the elevator, he suddenly reached out to wrap his arm around her waist, pulling her into his embrace.
His chin gently rested on the top of her head, one hand on the back of her head, and the other tightly around her waist. His pleasant voice came from above.
"In the future, we will also have a home of our own, then we'll always be together, okay?"
Victoria lay on his chest, listening to his heartwarming heartbeat and his touching and mesmerizing words.
After a long while, she lifted her head from his embrace, her eyes glistening, looking at him with a smile on her lips, and replied with a very determined voice, "Okay, always together."
Alexander lowered his head slightly, only a few fingers' distance from her.
Watching her lips move, his eyes darkened a bit, and his sexy Adam's apple bobbed a few times.
"Can I kiss you?" Alexander asked suddenly.
Alexander's question left Victoria stunned. Before she could react, Alexander cupped the back of her neck and pressed forward.
Her lips were kissed.
Alexander held her lips, bringing a cool sensation, then licked them, making her bewildered, not knowing what to do.
After a long while, he finally let her go.
She was already blushing, her legs weak, leaning against his chest, not daring to lift her head.
This was her first kiss!
Alexander watched her snuggle into his arms, like a shy young girl experiencing the first stirrings of romance. In this aspect, she truly was still a girl.
By the time she composed herself, the elevator just arrived. She pushed Alexander away, lowered her head, and walked into the elevator without looking back, quickly pressing the button.
Alexander was very happy to see her shy and bashful demeanor.
In the elevator, after the door closed, Victoria lifted her head, looking at her blushing face and red ears in the mirror.
She cupped her face with both hands, patted it a few times, and muttered, "Victoria, you're so useless! So easily flustered!"
Downstairs, Alexander watched the elevator stop at her floor before turning to leave.
When Victoria got home, she immediately went to take a shower. She needed to calm down.
