She didn’t dare to move, and her voice became hoarse.
Marcus used a bit of force and gently wiped off the lipstick on her mouth corner Then, he raised his hand in front of
her and said “Your lipstick was smudged, let me wipe off the excess for you”
So she was just overthinking?
Marcus turned his face away, not looking at her anymore.
However, Cornelia could sense his anger from his back
She didn’t understand why he was getting angry when he was the one teasing her in the first place.
