Chapter307 Taking the Initiative to Kiss
The sensation of his lips against hers and the soft whisper in her ear left Victoria in a state of profound shock. She found herself pondering, 'Will we have many adorable kids just like me? Am I adorable, or am I just pitiful?' Victoria's gaze fell upon him. Despite the absence of alcohol in her system, she felt a wave of intoxication wash over her. She yearned to pull him close, to reciprocate his passionate kiss with an equal fervor, to remain in this moment of unbridled desire indefinitely. With a gentle touch, Victoria cradled his face and pressed her lips against his.Her kiss was light, yet it filled her with an immense satisfaction. She had kissed the man she had secretly admired for years, the man who had been the subject of her silent attentions. In the early days of their marriage, Victoria had attempted to confess her feelings. However, before she could muster the courage to make the call, she stumbled upon a photograph on his Facebook page. In the picture, he was surrounded by friends, enjoying a drink, with Isabella seated next to him. He appeared to be in a state of bliss, his gaze fixed on the camera, as if he was also looking at Isabella.This memory caused Victoria to snap back to reality. She slowly withdrew her hand, her mind regaining its rationality. She couldn't bring herself to meet the gaze of the man she had just kissed of her own volition. 'Have I lost my mind?' she thought, 'How could I have kissed him willingly? He is merely my husband in name, capable of seeking a divorce at any moment.'Alexander, too, was taken aback. He was left wondering if Victoria had truly kissed him. After what felt like an eternity, he regained his composure. Alexander wanted to confirm the reality of the situation, but Victoria's demeanor suggested that she felt guilty, as if she had committed a transgression. He was determined not to let her regret or blame herself for the kiss.With renewed vigor, Alexander leaned in to kiss her once more, this time with a greater intensity. "Vicky, let's make love," he suggested, gently laying her on the bed.
"We are at work," she protested, attempting to remind him of the need for professionalism.He had always been calm and restrained at work. Why was he behaving so impulsively today?The timely ring of Alexander's mobile phone on his desk interrupted their exchange. Alexander frowned, then gently caressed her sensitive skin, whispering, "This is a boss's privilege."Victoria looked at him, her eyes filled with confusion. What did he mean by 'a boss's privilege'?Alexander met her innocent gaze, a slight smile playing on his lips. He tenderly kissed her forehead, murmuring, "I'll answer the call. Wait a moment."Victoria finally felt a sense of relief. Once he had left, she quietly straightened her clothes, gathered the scattered papers from the floor, and made her way to the lounge door.Alexander glanced inside, prompting her to quickly move out of sight.Alexander answered the phone, "Can't it wait until tomorrow if it's important? Isabella, can we discuss it then?"Upon hearing Isabella's name, Victoria quietly slipped away, not pausing to listen further.Alexander heard the door close, turned around, and saw her stealthily making her exit. He glanced down at his abdomen, let out a sigh, and said into the phone, "Let's discuss it tomorrow night. That's all for now."He ended the call, intending to clarify the situation.Victoria must have misconstrued his relationship with Isabella. They were merely childhood friends. If Isabella was willing to revert to being friends, he would welcome it.However, Alexander felt no urgency to explain. He had no intention of letting Victoria sleep alone that night. He was determined to share the bed with her and to continue what they had started.
