Chapter 78

• Violet's POV
• Adrian was set to ridicule me, dessert was served, the waiter carefully placed the chocolate mousse cake in front of us, and I fought to maintain my composure. My heart galloped like a wild horse, threatening to burst free from my chest. The vibrations beneath the table intensified, sending shivers up my legs, my legs were trembling... Adrian's eyes sparkled with mischief, his expression innocent, but his actions anything but.
• "Thank you," Adrian said smoothly, picking up his spoon and dipping it into the rich, velvety chocolate.
