Chapter 38
She had intended to appear graceful in front of Zayn, but why did she always end up embarrassing herself like this?
Kenan's attention was focused on Skyler and Zayn, but he noticed Willow after hearing the sound.
Seeing Willow's checks flushed with embarrassment, Kenan's lighter slipped from his hand and clattered to the ground.
At that moment, he recalled a line of poetry-"Like a lotus flower shy under the cool breeze."
He felt as though he might not have to remain single forever.
"Sorry, let me try again," Willow said, reaching for the wine opener. Just as her hand touched it, a slightly calloused hand fell on top of hers.
Upon contact with Willow's hand, Kenan froze in place as if electrified. He forgot to retract his hand because he was so overwhelmed with emotion.
"LL. I'll help you," Kenan, usually eloquent, stuttered for a while before managing to say a complete sentence.
Zayn's expression grew even more grim at the sight of Kenan's demeanor.
"No need, thanks" Willow quickly withdrew her hand and successfully opened the wine bottle this time.All content is © N0velDrama.Org.
Kenan's gaze remained fixed on Willow, oblivious to everything around him. It felt like an eternity before he finally turned around and forcefully nudged Charles, sitting beside him.
"Charles, pinch me quick!"
"Are you crazy?" Charles glanced at him with disdain but still pinched his arm hard.
"Cuch!
Despite the pain from Charles's pinch, Kenan didn't react with his usual outburst of anger. Instead, he laughed like a silly child.
"It's not a dream, it's real! I'm really in love!"
Everyone looked at Kenan as if he were mentally challenged, and even Willow couldn't help but sneak a glance at him.
Kenan was even more adorable than she had imagined.
How could falling in love be triggered by a pinch? Could it be that Charles sparked a tiny flame of love in him with that pinch, transcending gender boundaries?
Heh! Willow suppressed her laugh.
In life, there would still be room for joy amidst hardships if you look closely, just like how she could maintain such a good mood in front of Zayn and Skyler.
Seeing Willow smile, Zayn's expression darkened.
Was she this happy to hook a man?
His anger surged so much, he felt like he could kill at that moment.
Kenan couldn't help but feel a bit disappointed seeing himself som excited but getting no response. He wanted to seek more attention.
He forcefully pushed Zayn and exclaimed, "Zayn, did you hear me? I'm in love!
Without waiting for Zayn's response, Kenan excitedly grabbed Willow's hand "Young lady, I'm in love!"
