When She Walks Away (Teresa) novel Chapter 251

Chapter 251

糙

Troy spun Teresa around and around in his arms, clearly in no hurry to stop.

Teresa’s head was spinning–she felt so dizzy she was seriously about to puke.

She patted his shoulder and said, “Troy, stop it. I’m gonna throw up.”

As soon as he heard that, Troy came to a halt.

When Troy tried to set Teresa down, he lost his balance, and with an awkward tumble, they both ended up sprawled across the bed- him half on top of her.

Tall and solid as he was, Troy fell towards her but quickly planted his hands on either side of Teresa, making sure she didn’t get hurt beneath his weight.

With that effort, his body still pressed close–his face, chest, and the unmistakable hardness against her made the air between them heat up in an instant.

Teresa wore nothing but a thin, silky nightgown,

The light scent of her body wash lingered around her, and her long, seaweed–like hair fanned out across the pillow. With all the movement, the nightgown clung even tighter to her, tracing her soft curves in the low light.

Troy’s body was pressed close to hers, and the sheer allure radiating from Teresa completely short–circuited his thoughts. For a moment, he couldn’t think at all.

His face and body burned with a wild, uncontrollable heat.

Teresa, still aching from where she’d landed, reached out to push Troy away. But he was unmoving–her hand only felt the heat pouring off him and noticed the subtle, unmistakable changes in his body.

Teresa’s face lit up a furious red. She turned her head, refusing to look at him, but still mumbled in a low, embarrassed voice, “Troy, could you get up?”

Troy’s thoughts were all over the place; he was so rattled he wasn’t even sure if he’d managed to say anything in reply.

Troy stammered, “O–okay.”

Then he lifted himself off her and sat down at her side.

Even now, just sitting nearby, Teresa’s scent seemed to sneak into his every breath.

Her scent was like opium, utterly intoxicating–he couldn’t get enough.

Teresa quickly straightened her nightgown, cleared her throat, and asked, “Aren’t you supposed to be at the hospital with your mom?”

She sat up too, leaning against the headboard. Her eyes were filled with confusion as she stared at Troy’s back.

Feeling her gaze burning into him, Troy still didn’t dare turn around. He answered, voice a little awkward, “She was the one who asked me to come check on you”

Teresa spoke gently. “You should go back.”

Troy shook his head stubbornly. “I came here to be with you. You can’t get rid of me that easily.”

Before Teresa could respond. Troy suddenly turned to her, his eyes full of pleading. “Just for a little while.”

Teresa let out a helpless sigh. “It’s the middle of the night–how exactly do you want to keep me company?”

Troy froze for a heartbeat.

Then, a wicked smile spread across his face as he leaned in close, voice dropping to a low tease. “Honestly, I could stay right here tonight. If you’re curious to by something new. I wouldn’t mind showing you the ropes

There was no mistaking what he was huting at–Teresa distantly got it

Her cheeks flushed with indignation, and she shot back, “You’re unbelievable.”

Troy had that unmistakable bad–boy smirk plastered on his face, his grin full of cheeky swagger.

He slowly edged closer to Teresa, clearly out to mess with her, his every move dripping with playful intent.

Teresa instinctively stepped back, her eyes wide and completely on guard.

Just as Troy was about to press right up against her, he suddenly froze, tensing up. He cocked his head, listening hard for something. then asked, “Did you hear that?”

Teresa watched him warily, her brows knitting together. “What noise?”

Troy pointed at the wall toward the next room. “Listen closely.”

Seeing Troy act so intent made Teresa a bit curious herself.

She copied him, leaning in to listen just like he did.

With that, Troy walked out of the bedroom.

Behind him, Teresa grabbed her ear in pain, her brows knitted together in agony.

She watched Troy’s retreating back, a swirl of complicated emotions in her heart.

‘He clearly likes Naomi, so why does he keep acting this way toward me?‘ she wondered, confused.

Teresa didn’t get it—but she really didn’t like this side of Troy at all.

Troy walked out of the Sullivan Mansion in broad daylight, completely at ease.

The servants who saw him looked genuinely surprised.

There weren’t any guests today, so how come a total stranger is coming out?‘ they wondered, puzzled.

By the time Troy got back to the hospital, Rose had already taken a nap.

She had just woken up when Troy pushed open the door from outside.

Troy came in fuming, anger written all over his face.

Rose picked up on Troy’s bad mood the second he walked in. “What are you doing back here?” she asked, frowning.

Troy slumped into a nearby chair and rubbed at his brow, frustration all over his face. “She keeps turning me down,” he muttered.

Rose couldn’t help but laugh. “What? Someone actually turned you down?”

Troy let out a long, frustrated sigh. “All these women I’ve known, and she’s the one who just doesn’t appreciate me at all.”

Rose chuckled, trying to lighten the mood. “What’s the rush? Just take your time.”

But the more Troy stewed over it, the more irritated he got. “You know, I’ve got women lining up to jump into my bed. If she keeps testing my patience, I’ll just forget about her and let loose–girls on both arms, living it up every night. Seriously, I could have the time of my life if I wanted to.”

Rose shot him a look and rolled her eyes. “You better not just be running your mouth.”

Troy fired right back, “Me? I never talk big.”
