Chapter 640
As soon as his woman pushed her leg against him, Delbert raised his eyebrows with interest.
His deep-set eyes showed a hint of indulgence.
He allowed Harriet to push her leg against him while holding the bag containing the jewel in his left hand and putting his right hand in his pocket.
With his eyes lowered and his long eyelashes fluttering, his voice was openly affectionate.
“Yes, my babe looks handsome no matter what she does. She looks even more handsome now. So handsome that I can’t resist…”
His voice was so deep that it was almost hoarse.
His beautiful eyes looked at Harriet with a hint of desire flickering within them.
After hearing Delbert’s words, a blush instantly rose to Harriet’s cheeks.
She had intended to imitate Delbert and tease him in return.
But she didn’t expect that after being pushed by her leg, Delbert would still respond so flirtatiously that it made her heart race!
She had tried to steal a kiss but ended up being kissed instead!
Delbert was too bad!
Blushing with anger, Harriet puffed up her cheeks like a little hamster.
She changed the subject and brought up the main issue, “Delbert, how did you manage to notice that small stone on the display cabinet that seemed like scrap but contained a top-grade jewel?” After finishing her sentence, she pushed her leg against Delbert again and moved closer to him.
Her doe eyes held a hint of threatening playfulness as if she were coaxing Delbert to tell the truth and not lie.
Delbert was immediately amused by the cute look on his woman’s face, and he affectionately rubbed Harriet’s head.
“Where is my beautiful and sassy babe? How did you turn from handsome to a cute and soft little hamster in just three seconds?”
Upon hearing Delbert’s words, Harriet became even more annoyed, and her puffed-up cheeks didn’t subside at all.
What did he mean by “turning cute in three seconds”?
When she pushed her leg against Delbert, it had definitely been more than three seconds!
And what did he mean by “cute and soft little hamster”?
She wasn’t small at all, let alone like a hamster!
With a hint of playful threat in her eyes as she looked at Delbert, Harriet responded with dissatisfaction, “I’m not a little hamster. Tell me quickly, how did you notice that small stone with the jewel?” When Delbert saw his woman looking stubborn and cute, his eyes flashed with cunning.
He raised his eyebrows, slightly lowered his head, and said to Harriet’s eyes filled with playfulness, “Call me ‘darling,’ and I’ll tell you.”
After hearing Delbert’s slightly sinister and seductive words, Harriet’s blush spread to her ears.
Delbert had become increasingly mischievous since coming to Imperium.
If that continued, she would get used to his mischief.
However, curiosity got the better of her, so she had to obey his order.
Harriet looked up at Delbert with curiosity, preparing to call him “darling.”
But at this moment, an unfamiliar voice suddenly interrupted them.
“You lovebirds are flirting in broad daylight! Have you considered the feelings of us single people?”
Almost instantly, along with the man’s voice, the sound of a blade cutting through the air rang out!
