Addicted To The Genius Lady With A Thousand Faces

Chapter 505: The moment Connor's lips touched Marissa's, she quickly opened her eyes and found herself staring directly into his. His face was so close that she almost raised her hand subconsciously to touch it, as her heart began to pound uncontrollably.

Brief, gentle, and sweet, the kiss warmed Marissa's heart. She found herself relishing it, even wishing for it to continue. However, she was able to control herself, repeatedly telling herself that she mustn't indulge.

Feeling suddenly annoyed, she opened her mouth to bite Connor, but he moved out of the way just in time, saving his lips from what would have been a painful bruise.

Glaring at him, she asked through gritted teeth, "Are you not going to stop?" Acting innocent, Connor replied, "I was simply bidding you goodnight with a kiss. Why are you so worked up? I've done what I intended to do already. You can go to sleep now knowing that I won't disturb you anymore." Marissa couldn't believe her ears. She didn't want a goodnight kiss at all. Cursing under her breath, she turned her back to him and shut her eyes, hoping to fall asleep as quickly as possible.

Lying on his side, Connor supported his head with one hand and watched Marissa silently. Once he was certain that she had fallen asleep, he gently turned her body over, causing her to lie flat on her back. As she was going to leave in two hours and wouldn't be back for the entire night, he couldn't bring himself to fall asleep. Instead, he contented himself with quietly watching her.

Though he didn't do anything, he felt content enough to just admire her exquisite beauty, which was a source of pleasure for him. Gently stroking her cheeks, which were as smooth as jade, he couldn't help but also play with her long, dark hair.

Inhaling the faint, delicate scent that emanated from her every breath, he felt wonderful and happy. Surely, this moment was the best one in his life.

For the next two hours, he simply continued to stare at her as tflew by. It was only when the alarm clock that Marissa had set on her phone rang that Connor snapped out of his thoughts. Reacting as swiftly as lightning, he grabbed her phone and muted it before the alarm could wake her up.

He wanted to spend smore twatching her and didn't want her to wake up yet.

Every ten minutes, the alarm on Marissa's phone went off, but because Connor had muted the mobile phone, the screen simply lit up. After the alarm went off three more times, he gently lowered his lips to kiss Marissa's.

In her sleep, Marissa felt a gentle and soft kiss. Not understanding what was going on, she subconsciously stuck out her tongue, wanting to lick her lips. Feeling something soft and sweet, she believed that she had eaten a marshmallow.

Then suddenly, she regained her consciousness and sharply opened her eyes. Seeing that it was Connor kissing her, she subconsciously pushed him away. "What on earth is wrong with you, Connor? How can you take advantage ofwhile I was sleeping? Do you have any idea how annoyed I am right now?" She fumed.

However, Connor simply widened his eyes in innocence and said, "You are terribly mistaken, Miss Nash. Why would I take advantage of you? I was simply waking you up. I mean, you have something important to do tonight, right? You could have overslept." Glaring at him, Marissa said, “I set an alarm on my phone. I did not need your help to wake up." Connor nodded and replied, “Your alarm did go off, but you happened to have muted your phone. The alarm simply went off tand tagain without making a noise. I actually wanted to help you unmute the phone, but I couldn't unlock your phone." Picking up her phone, Marissa looked at it and saw that it was indeed muted. But she remembered quite well that she hadn't muted it; it was impossible for the phone to mute itself. As Black Snake, she was unlike those forgetful people who always failed every morning to truly remember what they had done the night before.

Connor had to be an idiot to think that he could fool her. He must have been the one to mute her phone to prevent her from waking up.

But she decided not to quarrel with him over such a trivial matter. This man was the strangest man that she had ever met. It was simply impossible for her to care about all that he did.

Putting down her phone, she looked at him and coldly asked, "Let's say that my phone was indeed muted, O couldn't you have looked for another way to wakeup instead of kissing me?"

Shaking his head, Connor sighed innocently and said, "You still believe that I took advantage of you, Miss Mash. Trust me, I did all I could to get you to wake up, but you just wouldn't. Therefore, I hurriedly kissed you."

Pausing for a moment, he smiled cunningly before continuing, "I pushed you, shook you rather om violently, and yelled at you to wake y you up to no avail. Now that I look at it, you woke up as soon as I kissed you because you must have been awake all along. You simply pretended to be asleep just to lureto kiss you."
