The Reborn Wife Strikes Back ( Gordon Holmes’ )
Chapter 86

Chapter 86 

At least the atmosphere between was no longer so cold and hostile. At that moment, it really seemed as If Gordon and I were a real married couple who were discussing something. 

However, the answer he had given me was not at all the one I wanted. 

If he agreed to let Sabrina have this order, didn’t that mean that they could see each other every day? I could not let that happen, no matter what. 

“But Freya only has a small shop. Apart from the daily flowers that Holmes Group needs, you’ll also need flowers when we have big events or conferences. They also don’t have a professional team. Aren’t you afraid that it’ll drag us down?” I said again. 

Gordon suddenly grabbed my hands. He exerted force abruptly, and I slid off his shoulders and fell into 

his arms.  Sᴇaʀch Thᴇ ꜰindNʘvel.ɴet website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

I lost my balance, so I instinctively hooked both arms around his neck while his large hand caught me firmly in the small of my back. He looked down at me, his eyes full of gentleness. 

“After Sabrina regained consciousness, this was the only request she made to me. How could I say no? You know that I don’t like it when I’m in someone’s debt.” 

Gordon hugged me tightly. I had never felt this kind of warmth before. 

There had been so many sleepless nights when I lay hugging my giant, six–foot–tall stuffed brown bear. I had always wistfully thought of how wonderful it would have been if it was Gordon’s embrace instead. 

Now that I was lying in his arms as he embraced me, I realized that there was no way a stuffed bear could compare with a person. The feeling of being enveloped in a warm hug was indescribable. I felt myself go limp. 

How many women would survive a move like this from Gordon? 

He was handsome, rich, assertive, gentle any adjectives could be used to describe this man. All of them would be enough to make a woman fall for him instantly. 

I couldn’t help but sigh at Gordon’s irresistible charisma. I was still too inexperienced, I would have to practice with at least a dozen young, handsome men before I could raise my resistance to him. 

Still, I had a mission, and I was determined to persist until I reached my goal. 

However, with Gordon looking so gently at me while I was in his arms, I was utterly stunned, I couldn’t say anything, and all that was left was the burning feeling in my cheeks. 

“I noticed that you’ve been blushing a lot lately.” 

I was already embarrassed enough, but Gordon tactlessly insisted on exposing me. 

I wished that the ground would swallow me whole. 

I immediately looked away and feigned indifference as I said, “How many women could stop themselves 

2/2 

from blushing with what you did? You shouldn’t do something like that in your office. It’ll be embarrassing if we’re seen.” 

He burst into laughter and abruptly pushed me up with the hand on my back. My face was suddenly very, very close to his. 

He said seductively, “We’re already an old married couple. What does it matter if people see us? Why would it be embarrassing?” 

Gordon leaned in closer until his lips were just about to touch mine. 

I leaned back instinctively, but his hand was on the back of my head, and there was no way for me to 

retreat. 

He closed his eyes, and it seemed as though he was about to lean in. My brain felt like it was depleted of oxygen, and my mind went blank at once. 

But just as his lips were about to touch mine, there were three knocks at the door, and Landon’s voice rang out. 

“Mr. Holmes, Ms. Baker is here to deliver flowers!”
