Chapter 272: Let's Shower

Once Tom opened the door to his bedroom, his eyes first moved to the bed to confirm that she wasn't sleeping yet, and he was relieved to see that she wasn't on the bed. That had to mean that she was still awake and was within the bedroom since her sandal was on the floor beside the bed. 

"Baby?" He called softly as he shut the door behind him, and Lucy who was seated at the balcony smiled to herself when her heart fluttered at the sound of his voice. 

"I'm out here," she called out to him, and he walked over to the balcony to meet her. 

"Did I keep you waiting for long? I'm sorry I got carried away," Tom said apologetically as he squatted down in front of her and took both her hands which he raised to his lips. 

Butterflies fluttered in her belly at his gesture, "What were you so busy with that got you carried away?" Lucy asked as she tried not to be distracted by his thumb which was running against the back of her hand sensually.
