In the past, Madeleine had secretly tried to kiss him like this, but he had always pushed her away mercilessly.
Even now, he still had an urge to open his eyes and push her away.
Her lips were getting closer and closer to his, as if they would touch in the next second.
Howard couldn't help but want to open his eyes, but before he could lift his eyelids, he suddenly heard Madeleine's voice, very soft and light: "I really want to kiss you, but I know... you don't like it..."
When she said this, there was obvious disappointment in her tone, and Howard's urge to open his eyes instantly froze.
Madeleine's lips did not touch his, but still maintained a close distance to his lips. She was quiet for a few seconds and then spoke again: "Yes, you don't like it... so I don't dare to do it... just like I like you, but I don't dare to let you know, because I'm afraid you won't like it..."
With Madeleine's words, Howard clearly felt two teardrops fall harshly onto his face.
