Chapter 256 You Call That A Kiss
Chapter 256 You Call That A Kiss
Behind Lily blazed a fire, if she fell back onto it, even if this time next year didn’t become the annive of her death, she’d still end up with her face completely scorched.
“Lily”
James hadn’t expected that keeping his distance from her would cause her to lose her balance and tip backward suddenly. He immediately lunged forward and caught her steadily around the lower back..
It was always some ridiculous coincidence.
Because of his sudden movement, she was propped up by his hand and lurched forward, straight into him. Their lips, without warning, pressed together,
James suddenly thought of Leila’s lips–how they had fallen onto his earlier that day.
That moment of dazed distraction made him forget to pull away from the soft, intoxicating sensation.
While the two of them remained tightly pressed together, the stones at the entrance of the cave shifted. Ivan had crawled in.
“This cave entrance is seriously this small?”
He grumbled in frustration as he squeezed through–then froze when he saw what was happening just a few feet away. My older brother, who had always avoided women and insisted on marrying a manly wife, was actually kissing our future sister–in–law?
Earlier today, Ashton had said James was clinging to the hand of some hideous girly–man, and he’d nearly lost faith in the world. But now? James might still be salvageable. Heh! I’ve got to go tell Grandpa right away.
If Grandpa found out that his sword–wielding, stubborn grandson might still turn out straight, he’d be over the moon.
James heard the pervy laugh echoing from the cave entrance.
He was wearing shorts, so it wasn’t like anything inappropriate was exposed; but he wasn’t used to being shirtless around others. Without caring that his clothes were still wet, he quickly threw his shirt on.
That laugh was too suggestive; for a moment, he didn’t recognize it and thought those lunatics had found their hiding spot. Instinctively, he pulled Lily into his arms to shield her.
Only after he held her tight did he realize that laugh sounded pervy and familiar.
He turned toward the cave entrance on instinct, only to see his third brother’s annoying face.
James shot Ivan a glare, and Ivan instantly covered his eyes.
On the way here, he’d really been worried that his big brother might be killed by those lunatics.
Now, seeing his brother alive and well and clearly getting along great with his future sister–in–law, Ivan couldn’t be happier.

Chapter 256 You Call That A Ries
The heavy gloom that had hung over him vanished, he returned to his usual sunny, bright self, fullet youthful energy.
He grinned like an idiot as he pecked through his fingers, watching the sweet scene of his big brother and Lily wrapped in each other’s arms.
A moment later, trying way too hard to act innocent, he said, “James, Lily, I totally didn’t see you two kissing just now. I’ve got night blindness; seriously, I didn’t see a thing. You two go ahead, pretend I’m not even here, treat me like air!”
James‘ face darkened. If Ivan really hadn’t seen anything, how would he knote our lips had even touched?
Lily hadn’t expected that she and James would end up colliding like that, much less that Ivan would walk
in on it.
She definitely didn’t want James‘ family getting the wrong idea that he was into her; instinctively, she opened her mouth to explain what had just happened.
But before she could say a word, another big head popped through the cave entrance.
Ashton knew full well how capable James was in a fight; but the group of lunatics behind that club weren’t weak either.
There were too many of them; two fists couldn’t fend off four attacks, and sneak attacks were hard to guard against. When James had called and told him to bring people and wipe them out, Ashton had still heard loud crashing on the other end of the line.
He’d been terrified that James wouldn’t die in a fight–but might get smashed to death.
Or worse–end up in a coma again.
On the way here, his spirits had hit rock bottom. He’d even secretly wiped his eyes a few times.
Now, seeing James alive and in one piece, he was overwhelmed with emotion and excitement. Forget about whether this would annoy his scary big bro–he blurted out happily, “Who’s kissing who? Why didn’t see it?”
Lily went quiet. Why was there nowhere to vanish into?
-She just wanted to curl up and disappear.
“What kiss?”
Trailing behind Ivan was Simon.
Simon had just happened to be eating with Ivan that night.
He never had a great impression of Lily, but he’d always admired and respected James. When he heard James might be in danger, he panicked; of cours,e he came along.
After Ivan and Ashton crawled into the cave. Simon followed close behind.
