Isabelle was very disappointed. "Fine!"
She huffed angrily, glared at Andrew, and left.
Luna also stood up. "Then I… I'll head back now."
Andrew nodded. "Yeah, you go ahead. I need to take care of business too."
After walking a few steps, Luna turned back around and said seriously, "Andrew, I want to talk to you alone. Mr. Goodman, you don't mind, do you? I'd like to speak with Andrew here for a moment."
Amari chuckled. "Not at all, General Phelan. You're one of our own, so go ahead."
Andrew looked puzzled as he followed Luna into a side room. As soon as the door closed, Luna bit her lip, hesitating.
Andrew stepped forward and asked, "Ms. Phelan, what exactly do you want to say?"
Luna shook her head. "Nothing!"
Andrew was speechless. "If it's nothing, then why did you call me in here just now?"
Luna fidgeted with her slender fingers. Then, she suddenly stepped forward and wrapped her arms around Andrew.
She whispered, "My mind is a mess. Andrew, don't say anything and just kiss me."
Andrew gasped as she squeezed him. He was hurting all over, but Luna's burning gaze and her shy yet restrained expression immediately captivated him.
Truth be told, he had already sensed Luna's feelings for him. However, she was a very self-controlled woman. She had always been able to hold herself back, always keeping a distance.
"Are you sure?" Andrew asked. Of course, he would not refuse such a wonderful opportunity being offered to him.
Luna mumbled, "I-I'm sure. Andrew, seeing you injured, I really…"
Before the embarrassed Luna could finish, Andrew lowered his head and kissed her hard. Her lips were small, and he easily covered them with his own.
