Chapter 1731
When Maverly arrived at her home, she helped Xanthus out of the car with huge effort.
She lost her balance the moment she stepped into the house, bringing Xanthus down with her and his body collapsed onto hers.
She tried to crawl out from beneath his body but failed and accidentally tore his shirt open during the process, revealing his healthy tan skin that gleamed under the lights. She swallowed at the sight of his bare skin.
In fact, Maverly had had a crush on Xanthus for a long time. Otherwise, she would not skip her classes just to go to the hospital.
She hesitated for a while, then kissed him on his lips. Initially, he didn't respond to her no matter how she shook him, but he immediately woke up after the kiss.
"Ugh..."
He turned over and lay on his back with a soft snort.
Maverly was stunned. Then, she got up and stared at him. The more she looked at him, the more she fell for him. She thought that he would not know it if she kissed him.
Thus, she leaned forward and kissed him on his lips once more. Just then, a low moan escaped from his throat, "Water..."
Being dehydrated was indeed one of the symptoms of drinking too much. Maverly rushed to get up and poured a glass of water for Xanthus. However, he was too drunk to drink, even with a straw. She tried helping him up and feeding him water, but he refused to drink it. Instead, he splashed the water everywhere.
Maverly took a sip of water and transferred the water into Xanthus's mouth via hers. He gulped down the water greedily, his Adam's apple bobbing during the process. When Maverly was about to get up and leave, he pressed against her body and gently sucked on her lips. Maverly was stunned. It was her first kiss, yet she was comfortable doing it with the person she liked.
Before long, the glasses fell onto the ground and rolled to one side as their bodies intertwined.
The next morning, Xanthus woke up from his sleep. There was glaring light in front of his eyes and his body felt cold. Opening his eyes, he looked around, shocked. Then, he glanced at his own body and realized that he was not wearing any clothes.
He was holding Maverly in his arms and she was naked as well.
He jumped and accidentally pushed her to the ground.
Maverly slowly opened her eyes as she propped herself up from the ground, her flawless body curled up in front of him and her lovely eyes watched him in awe.
Xanthus was too stunned to respond. Multiple hickeys marked Maverly's body, which looked like rose petals scattered all over the ground.
Even a fool would understand what had happened last night.
For a moment, Xanthus was shocked by himself.
He picked up his clothes and stared at the door as he put them on, his hands trembling and his heart beating frantically.
'Maverly is still a child. What is wrong with me?' he thought.
He turned to look at Maverly and said, "Did you do it on purpose?"
She blinked twice, not embarrassed by his words at all. Having received proper sexual education, she was not ashamed when it came to such matters.
"Are you not happy with that?" she asked. She could tell that just by looking at his face. Although she was heartbroken, she knew that love was not a trifling matter, and she could not force it to happen.
She learned a lot about it from her parents.
"You are still a child."
Xanthus put on his clothes and got up from the ground. He could not bear to see Maverly.
Maverly also put on her clothes and went to stand aside. In fact, her legs were a little unsteady. After all, it was her first time.
But by the looks of Xanthus's response, he most likely didn't wish it to be her first time as it would only make him feel more uncomfortable.
"My car is unlocked. Your keys are in the car," she said.
Xanthus opened the door but stopped again. He turned to look at her and said, "I need some time. Let me think about it."
He got in the car, then started the engine and left Maverly's home. Maverly shuffled into the bathroom and took a two- hour long bath. After coming out of the bath, she felt much better. Then, she went back to lie down and slept for two days straight.
When Maverly rushed to the hospital to visit the boy, she bumped into Xanthus.
Xanthus looked down at her. She stared at him and said, "Dr. Osteen."
When he did not answer, she looked behind him and asked, "Jacian, are you all right?"
"I'm alright. It hurt a lot the day before yesterday."
Jacian smiled, and Maverly breathed a sigh of relief. She then turned and bowed to Xanthus. "Thank you, Dr. Osteen. Thank you."
Xanthus stood in front of her, unable to catch his breath and he began to panic.
"Follow me."
He turned around and ordered Maverly to follow him outside, and she obeyed.
She walked behind him as he strode toward his office.
When they arrived at his office, Xanthus turned to look at Maverly. He threw his notebook on the table, then placed his hands in his pockets and swallowed hard.
"I drank too much that day!"
"I know."
She did not drink much.
"You're too young!"
"I know." 'He said that before,' she thought.
Xanthus's mouth twitched and he didn't know what else to say.
"This isn't my first time, so you don't have to worry about it. I had two boyfriends in high school and two in college. You are the fifth," she muttered.All rights © NôvelDrama.Org.
She raised her hand and drew a stroke in the air. Meanwhile, Xanthus was at a loss of words, his face as pale as a sheet of white paper.
"You're so young..."
"My friends are already sleeping with their boyfriends at the age of eighteen. My mom said that it's okay to do it as long as I use protection."
Xanthus clenched his teeth.
"But don't worry, I've already taken the pills!"
Xanthus had nothing left to say, and suddenly, he felt his head pulsing.
"Your father and I are friends. I am almost ten years older than you."
"I know, but it doesn't matter. I am already a grown woman. I won't tell anyone about this, nor will you have to be responsible for this. I can take care of myself.
Besides, you were drunk at that time and I gave you the wine myself. Later, when you were drunk, I took the initiative to kiss you, right there!"
Maverly pointed at his collar. Xanthus was stunned at first. Then, he looked down at his collar and glanced at her. "Your collarbone," she explained.
Xanthus's felt his cheeks burn. 'Young people these days really know how to tease!' He thought.
"Please, don't worry. You don't have to take responsibility for anything.
"You should pretend that this has never happened before. Don't tell my father. I'm afraid that if he knows it, he will beat me and say that he's disappointed."
Xanthus did not know how he should feel about Maverly's request.
Maverly bowed to him and said, "I'm leaving. Call me if you need anything."
Then, she turned around and disappeared from his side as if nothing had happened between them.
Xanthus stared at the door for a long while before raising his hand to touch his collar, then looked down at his collarbone curiously. Later, while he was washing his hands after going to the toilet, he unfastened his collar and looked at his collarbone in the mirror in confusion. 'Apparently, girls nowadays are obsessed with collarbones?'
The day finally passed and Xanthus saw Maverly driving away while he was still inside the hospital.
He noticed that she was dressed up nicely. Then, he recalled the many boyfriends she had mentioned to him before. Unconsciously, he followed her car.
It turned out that Maverly went to her campus and met up with a good-looking boy.
