The Sweet Pursuit by Golden Autumn
Chapter 173

"Uncle George?" Enoah called out in astonishment. "Have you seen Suzy?"

George's tone sounded calm as he said, "She seems to have gone to the garden."

"Oh. Then I'll look for her in the garden," said Enoah as she quickly walked away.

Suzy frowned. "What should I do?"

"I'll take you to the garden." The man showed a smile, showing no concern at all.

Concer

"How do we get there?" Suzy asked in surprise. Could it be that there was a secret tunnel in this villa?

She soon realized that she was thinking too much again. She watched as George walked toward the window. He opened the window, turned his head, and said to her, "Jump down from here and you'll reach the garden."

Suzy, "..."

The villa's first floor was already incredibly high, so the second floor was equivalent to a normal building's third floor. The height was not a problem for her, but was she going to jump down in front of him?

Had he realized something?

George looked at her as she was stuck in a daze and could not help but laugh. He waved at her and said, "Come here."

Suzy walked over, and George smiled at her. "I'll jump first. I'll catch you later once I'm down there. Can you jump?"

Suzy looked at him. "Are you joking?"

"No," George's voice was steady, but there was a hint of excitement in his eyes. "Do you dare to take the leap?"

Suzy said, "You jump, then!"

George turned his head and kissed her face. "Don't be afraid. With me around, I won't let you get hurt Plus, it'll be very interesting."

Suzy's long eyelashes trembled for a moment, and her gaze suddenly became deep. When she looked at the man in front of her, time suddenly went backward.

George pushed the window open, looked back at her, raised his legs, and jumped down.

Suzy immediately stepped forward and looked down.

The man turned his body downward, his toes protruding from the window lattice on the first

floor. His vigorous figure landed steadily.

Soon, he raised his head and stretched out his arms.

She could hear him shouting, "Jump down, baby."

Suzy's gaze was soft, and the corners of her lips were smiling involuntarily. Seeing that there was no one around, she jumped toward the man without hesitation.

The sound of the wind was blowing in her ears, and she even had time to glance at the blooming flowers in the distance. They were so colorful... Plop! She fell into the man's arms, and he was hugging her waist firmly, securely protecting her in his chest.

The two hugged and looked at each other. They let out silent laughter

Suzy's picturesque appearance hid traces of mischievousness. She looked crafty and agile. The corners of her lips were curved upward. She looked like a child who had stolen some candies.

George's heart seemed to have been stung by an ant. The slight itching ran across his limbs. The look in his eyes grew deeper, and he lowered his head to kiss her lips.

As soon as Suzy closed her eyes, she heard Enoah calling her name.

She hurriedly jumped off George and said, "I should get going now. How are you going to go back?"

"I'll head in from the side entrance. Don't worry. I have the key to the study." The man smiled warmly, and his eyes were bright.

Suzy nodded and waved her hands at him. Then, she ran toward Enoah's direction.

Fortunately, the Laines family's garden was very large. There was even a humongous greenhouse in the middle that was surrounded by high and low green plants. It could hide her entire figure.

George stood there, and once he saw that Suzy's figure had completely disappeared, he smiled and turned to go to the front yard.

He did not realize it earlier, an only now did he realize the absurd thing they did just now. Such a feeling that had not been felt for quite some time made him feel extremely happy!
