Chapter 1304:
What was she doing?
Before he could say anything, Elissa suddenly turned in his direction.
With a wide smile on her face, she pointed toward him and called out, “Don’t move! | know you're right there,
I'm going to catch you this time!” Ernest stared at her, momentarily stunned.
What exactly was happening?
His throat tightened slightly, but he remained still, curious to see what she would do next.
“Haha!” Without hesitation, Elissa burst out laughing and lunged, wrapping her arms around him in a sudden,
playful embrace. Startled, Ernest instinctively reached out to steady her, afraid she might trip or fall.
As she pressed close, her lips accidentally brushed the corner of his mouth.
He stiffened at once. A visible reaction moved across his face as his breath caught. His arms reflexively
tightened around her, holding her in place.
“See? | got you!” she said triumphantly, still unaware. “What are you going to do now, huh?” Her laughter was

uncovered her vision, only to freeze when she saw exactly who was standing in front of her.
“Mr. Flynn!”
Elissa stared at Ernest in stunned disbelief.

All this tworking as Locke’s governess at the Flynn residence, she had never once seen Ernest at home. She
had even begun to asshe was intentionally avoiding her.
“Yes.” Ernest gave a small nod, his voice calm as always. His gaze rested on her, and after a brief pause, he
asked with quiet amusement, “Are you planning to keep holding on like this?”
He didn’t actually mind her holding him, but the rain had been pouring steadily outside, and his coat had gotten
slightly wet, which made it uncomfortable to wear. He needed to take it off.
“Huh?” Elissa blinked in surprise when she finally noticed that she was still clinging to him.
Oh no.
In a flurry, she released her hold and
