Chapter 39 Sovereignty
Gail remembered that last time it was because of Julie that James took her first kiss.
At this moment, Gail was patient, ecstatic, sad, excited and shocked, and she uncontrollably trembled.
"Gai, what's wrong with you?"
"I Mr. James, you..."
Her lips were again covered by his. Gail's eyes were wide open.
"Don't call me Mr. James. Gai, I thought you knew it." His low and husky voice was like a violoncello,
playing her heartstrings.
Flushing with embarrassment, Gail stared at James thoughtfully. What was more, in James's eyes, Gail
was more attractive at this time. He couldn't help but want to own her.
Gail's heart was in a mess. This reminded her that half a year ago, she adored him so much.
"James, I don't know what you're talking about." Gail spoke out James's name gently with her plump
red lips, like a light feather, scratching his heart, very itchy.
"Gai, say it again. You don't call me like that recently. I want to hear it." James put his forehead against
hers and held her head gently.
Gail's face turned crimson with shyness.
"Call me again." James gently rubbed Gail's forehead and his magnetic voice seemed to be
bewitching, making her feel limp and numb all over her body.
Out of control, Gail called in a soft voice, "James."
Her heart skipped a beat, as if it had touched a patch of cotton. James pulled her into his arms and Belonging © NôvelDram/a.Org.
held her tightly.
"Gai, I thought you had changed and wouldn't listen to me anymore. Gai, I'm so worried about that."
James said in an excited voice, stroking her soft hair and smiling with his eyes half closed.
James held Gail so hard that she almost collapsed into his arms. Her body became weak and limp
when she heard his pleasant voice.
"No, I didn't. I just can't be thoughtless like before. And yours... " Although Gail felt very happy now, she
did not realize that her previous thoughts of staying away from him and keeping away from him had all
turned into ashes when she was in his arms.
However, Gail had to take into account the fact that James had never mentioned the name of Julie
again. Was the person who had hurt him still in his heart? Perhaps, the reason why he held her like this
was that he did not want to lose this friend. He just treated her as Julie so he kissed her.
James let go of Gail and touched her lips, "What are you worried about? Gai, no matter what it is, I
seem to fall in love with you."
Gail could not believe what she had heard.
Love, how distant the word was. She had never thought of it. She dared to admit that she liked him.
"James, you mean 'love'?"
"Yes, I seem to fall in love with you." James didn't speak anymore and gently moved his lips to hers.
Gail's eyes became unfocused, and her fluttering eyelashes slowly closed.
Buzz Buzz Buzz Buzz... " Gail's phone buzzed in her pocket.
Both of them woke up soon. Gail buried her head into James's chest to avoid his eyes. At this moment,
her face was as hot as a fire which could not be seen by him.
James had been annoyed by the call who had disturbed his romantic moment with Gail.
"Let me have a look at the phone. I want to know who the person is, who is so thoughtless!" James bit
Gail's cheek heavily, which made her bury her head deeper.
James laughed helplessly. His smooth lips were shining brightly under the light.
James smiled and took out the phone from Gail's pocket. When he saw the name on the screen, his
smile faded away.
Sensing something was wrong with him, Gail took a look at her phone and saw the name on the screen
-- "Hoyle".
Looking at her red face and her white and red skin exposed in the sun, James saw that the tiny sweat
was clearly visible. Gail tilted her head to look at the mobile phone in his hand, and he could smell the
faint fragrance from her hair.
James took the phone and said, "It's time for him to call. Answer it. "Although he wanted to hang up the
phone, he didn't want to act narrow-minded in front of Gai.
There's plenty of time. He was with her every day. He had a lot of advantages, so he didn't bother
about it.
Gail lowered her head and answered the phone, "Hello, Hoyle. Have you arrived? "
"I have arrived. Where are you? Gai, what's wrong with your voice?" As soon as Hoyle got off the
plane, he called Gail. She sounded as if she just woke up.
He arrived so soon, but she set out ahead of schedule. Did they waste a long time just now?
"Nothing. I just got a delay on my way. I'll be there soon. Sorry. Wait a moment, okay?" Gail suddenly
realized that she was late, but they didn't waste much time just now. It seemed that he arrived here
ahead of time.
"Well, it's okay. I'll stay in the coffee shop here for a while. I'm not in a hurry. Take your time, and I can
have a rest here." Hoyle was so considerate that Gail's face turned redder.
"Okay."
The car had started. Gail's palms were sweaty as she held the phone tightly.
After a short while, they arrived at the airport. Gail gave Hoyle a call.
"Gai, you are here so soon. I thought you were on the way." Dressed in a casual baseball shirt and a
white peaked cap, Hoyle looked quite cheerful. He called Gail's name expertly as soon as he saw her.
All of a sudden, James was engulfed by his fury. Only he could call her "Gai".
"Hoyle, I didn't expect you to be here so soon. Aren't you supposed to be here at 12 o'clock?" Gail took
a look at her watch and wondered, 'According to the schedule, she is not late. Does the flight arrive
early?'
"I'm afraid you came here too early, so I told you later than I did. I didn't expect you to come so soon.
But, why did your boss come with you?" As a man, Hoyle took a closer look at the man who was fixing
his eyes on him. His instinct told him that James was hostile to him.
James didn't respond, but took a gentle look at Gail.
Gail had turned to look at James unintentionally, but his faint smile had reminded her of what had
happened on the way. Her ears were as red as an apple.
"Our boss happened to had something to do, and he knew you were here. You helped us last time, so
he came to pick you up by the way." Gail then realized that James had nothing to do and he just came
with her to pick up Hoyle.
As she didn't see the file in James's hand. Besides, he didn't look worried. Moreover, as a CEO, he
wouldn't go to see the project process alone.
Before Gail could finish her words, James walked behind her and put one hand on her shoulder. "It's
almost eleven o'clock when Gai asked for leave from me. I knew that she didn't have enough time, so I
sent her here. I haven't thanked you for sending us last time. As Gai's boss and good friend, I am
supposed to pick you up."
