Chapter 56

Before Tara even felt the warm body, she smelled a subtle fragrance. She had already stopped what she was doing, and when she realized who could be behind her, she hurriedly turned around. "Mr. Swain?" she called, but there was no response. Lance was standing tall behind Tara and looking down at her. There was a passionate look in his eyes, and if their gazes met at that moment, she might be terribly shocked. Although the temperature in the room felt nice, Tara was sweating with anxiety. She wanted to move to the right a little, but he had his hand placed on the fruit bar. It didn't seem like he was planning on removing his hand anytime soon. As for Tara's left side, she couldn't move there at all because that was where she was cutting the fruits. "M-Mr. Swain, what are you…" She didn't even realize when Lance had placed the tray she left in his room on the fruit bar, which was to her right. Meanwhile, Lance didn't think it was inappropriate for them to stand that close at all.
