No Trespassing! My Aloof Brother-Chapter 31 - 29: Ultimate Intimacy
Chapter 31: Chapter 29: Ultimate Intimacy
He asked suspiciously, "Do you like Elijah Reed?"
"I don’t!"
"You’re avoiding me, playing hard to get?"
"Definitely not!"
Watching her startled expression, he leaned closer to her face and calmly said, "You’re feeling guilty!" He saw her blush.
Blushing! For Maya Spencer, who feared neither heaven nor earth, it was quite rare.
Looking at Liam’s face close to hers, she swallowed and explained, "Third Brother, you’re a bit too close. It’s inappropriate."
"Maya, Third Brother thinks your scent is quite nice. What to do?" He still suspected she was in cahoots with Grandpa, thinking she was intentionally approaching him. So he let the situation play out, bringing up that night’s events to test her, to see if she’d throw herself at him or keep her distance.
When Liam finished speaking, Maya was stunned. She never expected him to say something so brazen. Did he want her to repay her personal debts physically?
As a result, she suddenly pushed Liam away, not even grabbing her backpack, and instinctively tried to run.
Noticing the situation, Liam quickly grabbed her wrist and said, "I have something to ask you."
Hearing he had more to ask, Maya was terrified, jumping with anxiety, fearing Liam’s hidden intentions, and worried he might actually do something to her.
But indeed, she owed him a favor, and she had to repay that favor!
She paused for a moment, turned around, and suddenly threw herself into his arms, broke free from his grip, gently hooked her arms around his neck, pulled him down a bit, stood on tiptoe, and planted a kiss on his cheek.
Then, she placed a kiss on his nose tip and forehead, finally landing a quick peck on his lips, explaining.
"Third Brother, as siblings, this is the limit of intimacy, don’t overthink it,
Listening to her explanation, Liam’s complexion turned pale, especially since she had just kissed him, he increasingly felt something was amiss.
He then heard her say, "You’ve saved me a few times. If you need me to repay the favor in the future, just let me know."
Listening to her words, he leaned down, raised his right hand, pinched her chin, and earnestly warned her, "Maya Spencer, you’d better not be scheming with that old man Michael Spencer, or I won’t spare you."
"Grandpa wouldn’t want a teammate like me, but if you want to form a faction, I wouldn’t mind joining your group."
"Finish the homework tonight." He ignored her and instead asked her to do homework.
During the tutoring just now, Maya thought for a while. She felt that in the Spencer Family, the only person she could get close to was Liam, and he was different from others. If she could get closer to him, no one would bully her anymore, and he might be in a good mood and help her find out the cause of her mother’s death.
Unexpectedly, after she brought it up, he didn’t accept the offer, but she didn’t understand why he always suspected her and Grandpa of having some secret dealings, as if she had such ability.
Returning to the desk once more, watching Liam’s back walking into the bedroom, she furrowed her brows, pouted, and sighed helplessly, thinking when could the truth come to light with the current progress.
Actually, before her identity as an illegitimate child was exposed, Maya was very cheerful and lively! She had many friends and lived happily with her mother.
But after her identity was exposed, all her friends left her, and later, her mother’s death brought a drastic change to her life.
Additionally, with Hannah and Elia Spencer bullying her, she became increasingly indifferent, not liking to speak, treating everyone as enemies.
Until the appearance of the Turner siblings, there was a bit of sunshine in her life.
Today, she felt that Elijah Reed and Liam were not bad either, so she didn’t put on so much of a facade in front of these few people.
In front of the desk, while calculating problems, she thought about random things and unknowingly fell asleep again.
For some reason, in Liam’s house, she found it especially easy to fall asleep, and she felt at ease.
A moment later, when Liam came out of the shower and saw her sleeping at the desk again, he was almost out of patience with her, thinking she scored 8 points, didn’t she even feel embarrassed?
No way! For someone like her, embarrassment was already a habit, what was there to care about!
Not far away, Liam looked at the girl sleeping on the desk, leisurely walked over, raised his right hand, and patted her back, saying, "Maya Spencer, have you finished your homework? Who told you to sleep?"
After calling a few times, she still didn’t respond. He unceremoniously pinched her chubby little face and shouted fiercely, "Get back to your room to sleep!"
Feeling the pain on her little face, Maya suddenly sat up straight, scratched her head a bit embarrassedly and said.
"Sorry, I fell asleep again."
For a moment, she forgot they had argued earlier, and also forgot they had made up, only remembered after a while, then silly smiled and said.
"The problems are a bit difficult."
Looking at the drool on her mouth, the textbook, and his desk, Liam was about to go crazy. How could there still be someone like this, almost 19 years old and still drooling in sleep?
He furrowed his brows tightly, almost wishing to throw her out of the window.
Seeing someone’s disgusted expression, Maya realized she lost her composure. She quickly raised the back of her hand to wipe her mouth, then pulled out a tissue from the box on his desk to wipe the desk.
"If you’re sleepy, just go down to sleep."
"Hmm!"
"Hmm? Why not move?"
"My leg cramped, I can’t move."
Hearing her say her leg cramped and she couldn’t move, Liam swallowed, staring intently at her.
Seeing the man’s eyes, Maya immediately explained, "Give me two minutes, I’ll leave in two minutes."
She thought he would indignantly pick her up and throw her out the door, but ~ she miscalculated, he didn’t throw her out. Instead, he crouched in front of her, extended his warm big hand, and helped massage her right leg, asking.
"Is it this one?"
Liam was almost shocked by his gentleness, clearly hating this girl, but looking at her embarrassed, vulnerable appearance, he seemed to see someone else and spontaneously became gentle.
"Hmm! No, like this, the cramp gets worse." Maya finished speaking and raised her foot, trying to ease the cramping sensation.
Liam originally wanted to just leave her alone, but seeing her bite her lip, he still took off her shoe, knelt on one knee, placing her small foot on his right knee, and gently massaged her foot.
While massaging, he asked, "Feeling better?"
"Mm-hmm!" Maya nodded while her eyes reddened.
At this moment, Liam was so gentle, gentle enough to remind her of her mother!
Before, when her mom was still around, it was this kind of gentleness that helped massage her feet, and also this kind of gentleness that greeted her.
