Did she have a heart of stone?

Camila was confused by the frown on his face.

“What's wrong? Why do you suddenly look sad?"

Isaac didn't answer her. Instead, he sent his arm behind her and pulled her flush against his chest. Their bodies were so close that even a thin piece of paper couldn't go through.

Even with their clothes on, Camila could feel the heat emanating from his body. Her mouth went dry in that instant.

She swallowed nervously.

Her heart was pounding rapidly.

Too shy to look up at him, she put her small hands on Isaac's chest and whispered in a hoarse voice, "You're holding me too tight, Isaac. I can't breathe."

Isaac heard her, but he didn't Loosen his hold on her, forcing Camila to stand on tiptoe.

Now, their faces were almost at the same Level.

Their heavy, moist and hot breaths intertwined with each other. Isaac's voice was low and deep when he asked, "You don't like me, do you?"

"I Like you," Camila answered quickly without thinking.

She was so nervous that she unconsciously revealed her true feelings. She took a deep breath, and then finally looked up into his eyes.

“No. I. I want to stay with you. Not just because you are Joe's father, but because I have a crush on you."

"What?" Isaac wasn't expecting that.

She hadn't even dropped a hint to prepare him for that revelation

She had a crush on him?

Did that mean she Liked him?

“You heard me. I like you," she repeated in a low voice, too shy and embarrassed to keep staring at him.

She Looked anywhere but at him. "Can you Let me go now?"

Isaac chuckled.

“No.”

“If you keep holding me like this, I'll probably suffocate and die,” she complained.

“And that's not what I want." Isaac was still amused. He lowered his head slightly and placed a gentle kiss on the corner of her forehead.

It was a butterfly kiss, more of like a flutter that made her heart skip a beat.
