Chapter 773: Chapter 772: The Ruse of Self-Sacrifice (7)

Bella Acker almost didn’t react, "What you were about to tell me was about this, right?"

"That’s right." Damian Sinclair made his wish, lowered his head and blew out the candles, then asked, "Can you still eat the cake? Eating sweets at night isn’t good for your teeth."

"I can’t eat anymore, I’m very full." Bella Acker instinctively replied, then realized that wasn’t the point, "Let’s first talk about why you were kicked out of the house, what’s going on?"

Damian Sinclair dipped his finger in some cream, gently smeared it on Bella Acker’s nose, and said, "You can have some of the birthday boy’s luck."

Bella Acker was speechless, thinking why he was smearing cake when they were talking about serious matters.

She widened her eyes, rushed forward in annoyance, grabbed a handful of cream, and smeared it all over Damian Sinclair’s face, saying, "You’re the birthday boy, you should have more."

Cream was smeared all over Damian Sinclair’s face, nose, and mouth. Seeing him like this, Bella Acker paused and couldn’t help but burst into laughter.

"Pfft! Hahaha!" Bella Acker leaned on her knees, bending over with laughter.

With cream smeared all over his face, he really looked like a big white bear.

Damian Sinclair helplessly stuck out his tongue and licked the cream around his mouth, tasting sweet and slightly fruity.

"Do you want me to smear some on you?" Damian Sinclair, seeing Bella Acker couldn’t stop laughing, felt playful too, and smeared two more streaks of cream on her fair cheeks with his finger.

"Ah!" Bella Acker exclaimed, "I just took a shower!"

"You can take another one later." Damian Sinclair moved quickly, smearing another streak of cream on her other cheek.

"Alright! President Sinclair, you asked for this!" Bella Acker rolled up her sleeves, and viciously said, "I’m telling you, we’ve been celebrating birthdays with lots of people since we were kids, I’m really good at smearing this stuff!"

Bella Acker grabbed a handful of cream and charged over, smearing it all over Damian Sinclair’s face.

Due to the height difference between them, she had to bounce up and down to smear it.

Damian Sinclair leaned back and turned his head to dodge, so she grabbed his arm and continued to jump up to smear it.

They started playfully scuffling, with Damian Sinclair suddenly wrapping his arm around her waist, causing Bella Acker to freeze.

It wasn’t until after the playful laughter that she realized they were very close. Damian Sinclair only had to exert a little strength to pull her into his arms.

They looked into each other’s eyes, and could even hear each other’s breathing.

Bella Acker’s cheeks flushed, she turned her head away first, gently wriggling to try to create some distance.

Feeling her slight struggle, Damian Sinclair not only didn’t let go but tightened his arm, pulling her directly into his embrace.

"President Sinclair!" Bella Acker held her breath, supporting herself against his chest with her cream-covered hands, nervously swallowing. Her heart was pounding like a drum.

Damian Sinclair held her waist, looked down at her, and hoarsely said, "The birthday boy’s wish is to get a kiss, can it be fulfilled?"

"Th-that’s your wish, what...what does it have to do with me..." Bella Acker’s voice grew softer, her lowered eyelashes trembling with nervousness, and even the palms supporting his chest began to sweat.

"Of course it has to do with you." Damian Sinclair said, slowly lowering his head.

Bella Acker instinctively leaned her head back, staring at him nervously with wide eyes.

Damian Sinclair deliberately confined her, knowing she couldn’t break free from his embrace with her strength, not to mention...
