Drunk and Daring I Kissed a Tycoon novel Chapter 162

Chapter 162 

Vespera tried her best to close the book on this topic. 

“I’m sorry for kissing you without your consent. I sincerely apologize,” Dominic said, apologizing for what had happened the day before. 

Her attempts to act as though nothing had happened were futile. She choked on her saliva as she tried to respond and coughed uncontrollably 

The mention of the kiss had caught her completely off guard. 

Dominic handed her a cup of water, and she drank almost half of it at once. 

“Let’s pretend it never happened,” she said, still shaken. 

“I’ll take responsibility for my actions,” he said. 

Vespera wondered what he meant by that and suddenly had a rough idea of what he was implying. 

“That won’t be necessary. It really isn’t. Truly.” She waved her arms, emphasizing her point. 

Seeing her reaction, looking like she had seen a ghost, the light in his eyes dimmed like a dying star. 

After a moment, he let out a soft chuckle.“And you call yourself open–minded?” 

She sat there, glass in hand, saying nothing. The air hung thick for a brief moment. 

As they sat in silence, her gaze dropped to the delicate glass ceramic she held. It was beautiful, but she knew how fragile it truly was. 

Dominic stood up and walked outside. 

Finally, she let out a deep breath and released the glass. Something had to have affected him. 

Maybe it was the forest setting or the kiss that was made more intense by the influence of the drug. Whatever it was, she was sure that once they got back, everything would go back to 

normal.. 

After collec 

her thoughts, she stepped outside to join him. Sherwin had already arrived and was in the middle of giving a report to Dominic. 

“Mr. Aldridge left before dawn. He said he had food poisoning. His friends left with him,” Sherwin said. 

Dominic nodded. 

From this, Vespera was sure that Dahlia had sent Jordan a message, which explained his sudden departure. 

Thous: 162 

2/2 

Since Jordan left on the pretext of being sick, Dominic would be the only one attending the acceptance ceremony.. 

From 11:00 am to 4:00 pm, Dominic was busy with the ceremony and luncheon. He was accompanied by a group of people when he toured the grounds. Vespera was by his side the 

entire time. 

Once everything had wrapped up and they were ready to leave, it was already 4:30 pm. 

Dominic had her sit with him in the back seat when they first arrived. She gladly accepted since the road was rough, and sitting in the backwas more comfortable. But on the way she would rather die than sit with him. 

When their car had arrived, she opened the door for Dominic. He got in and scooted over, clearly wanting her to sit beside him. 

back, 

Without acknowledging his gesture, she shut the door. Then, she opened the door to the front passenger seat and sat down.
