A wedding night Love Affair With The Billionaire

Eliza naturally couldn't leave if Tanner wouldn't move.

But she had no idea what in the world he wanted! Catching a glimpse of the coffee pot, could it be that he wanted her to pour it for him?

As she poured the rich coffee out, its aroma filled the room.

With that, Eliza cupped the teacup and handed it to him.

"Give it a try?"

In truth, she was also curious how her first Jamaican Blue Mountain coffee tasted.

Quirking his eyebrow, Tanner took the teacup from her with the hand that fiddled her hair, not intending to let her go anytime soon.

As the coffee warmed his taste buds, Tanner was surprised; she could make a decent cup of coffee.

With a straight face, he slowly placed the cup down.

"How is it?"

Eliza asked nervously, her face filled with expectation and curiosity.

"It's alright. It's drinkable."

His bland response was a blow to Eliza, a little dejected.

What was there to be disappointed about? Tanner was not short of anything; he had plenty of people making good coffee for him. It made perfect sense for him to say that, no?

Tanner could tell she was dejected; he hadn't meant to crush her, but his words turned out like that.

"Disappointed? It's already high praise."

He wanted to comfort her, but when had the great Mr. Deleon ever comforted anyone? So his stiff tone didn't sound the slightest comforting.

Eliza adjusted her mood. He was right; the man right before her was Tanner Deleon, after all. It wasn't that she wasn't good, but he was too finicky!

"I'm getting a little sleepy."

After suffering a blow, she naturally didn't want to stay any longer.

She still sounded a little croaky when she spoke, making Tanner's heart ache.

"Okay, but one more thing."

Eliza was curious. "What is it?"

Quirking his lips, Tanner held her with one hand and pointed to his cheek with the other.

He wanted a kiss.

He couldn't be any more obvious with his demand, and Eliza's gaze at him turned a little disdainful. So this was what he had in mind from the very beginning!

He sat there liberally, taking in her judgemental gaze, making sure he got his kiss before letting her go.

She had to be the one to do it!

Committed, Eliza closed her eyes and inched toward him. It'd be a waste not to kiss such a perfect man. She wouldn't suffer any losses anyway!

However, she was moving slower than a slot, and Tanner couldn't stand it anymore, going in for the kiss himself.

Keeping her eyes closed, Eliza felt as if she had bumped into something soft, a little fleshy. This was his cheek? Tanner couldn't be this chubby.

But before she could open her eyes, Tanner invaded her lips! What the hell?! Wasn't it just his cheek?!

The taste of coffee still lingered in his mouth, his kiss, domineering yet gentle.

He was too gentle that night; she didn't want to push him away.
