Jenna instinctively shook her head but suddenly nodded again because that image was too scary. The moonlight poured in from outside the glass dome, allowing her to make out the features of the man on the opposite side of the bed. She pursed her lips and pulled up the blanket to burrow inside it. After a few seconds, she started wriggling under the blanket and crawled toward Quinn. She took away the pillow in the center of the bed and burrowed underneath the man’s blanket. When she tightly wrapped her arms around his firm waist, she could feel her restless heart settling down. "You were the one who came crawling.” Quinn chuckled and gently pried off the blanket to reveal Jenna’s head so she could breathe easier. He pressed his fingers into her hair and gently massaged her scalp to help her relax. "Sleep, doofus.” That was when she recalled the note she had written to him before going to bed. She cringed and burrowed her head deeper into his embrace after that.
At noon, Jenna and Quinn went to the hotel restaurant for lunch. Shortly after they returned to the room, they received streams of visitors knocking at the door. The visitors were all the store managers of a variety of major women's luxury brands in Moonshine Mall. They had all picked out dozens of apparel from the newest collection of the season, all tailored to Jenna’s size for her to choose from. The outfits ranged from dresses to casual wear. A select few of these luxury brands even made a point of cutting out certain outfits from their current season’s retail collection once Jenna picked them out. Jenna spent the afternoon picking out clothes from the comfort of her living room. From time to time, she would open the door to yet another store manager with more clothes for her to choose from. Quinn went to the bedroom to work. Around six o'clock in the evening, Jenna had picked out more than thirty sets of clothes along with six sets of dresses. After that, she wen
With her hair tied up, Jenna jumped into the pool and swam like a fish. Occasionally, she would pop up from the surface of the water and see Quinn sitting in the rest area and talking to Sam beside him. Kevin showed up as well. Jenna invited Kevin to join her in the pool, but Kevin politely refused with a shake of the head. Some of the guests who just checked in at the hotel were not aware that the swimming pool was reserved. They brought their children in swimsuits to the pool only to be stopped at the entrance to the area. "Sorry, ma'am. The outdoor swimming pool is reserved today. There is another large indoor swimming pool on the twelfth floor. You can take your children there to swim.” "I paid for the hotel and you’re telling me that my daughter can't swim here?” The lady expressed angrily. The waiter stated politely, "Ma'am, our outdoor swimming pool usually charges an entry fee, but it has already been reserved tonight. The boss who reserved the outdoor swimmin
Quinn swallowed. He walked down the steps with large strides and squatted beside the swimming pool.“Jenna.”Jenna had just finished racing a lap around the pool with a few kids when she heard the man’s baritone voice and surfaced to swim in his direction.Her wet hair was plastered to her face as she looked up at Quinn, somewhat confused.Quinn looked at her eyes and knelt on one knee. Then, clasping the back of her head, he lowered his head to kiss her tenderly.“Wow!”The kids surrounding them gasped in shock, some even covering their eyes.“Mommy said we can’t look at adults kissing.”“That uncle is so shameless! He kissed her without asking first!”“That’s right, that’s right! Let’s get the policeman to catch him!”At the rest area, Kevin was leaning lazily against the chair listening to Sam talk when he saw Quinn go over to the swimming pool and kiss Jenna.The intimate action stung him.Kevin stood up to pick up the cup of water on the table and turned away to drink
After returning to the room, Jenna kicked Quinn aside and went to the bathroom to shower. She had just finished drying her hair when Quinn came up to her.Holding her by the waist, he lifted her onto the bathroom sink.Jenna was only wearing a thin spaghetti-strap dress and the coldness of the marble counter made her shiver even through her dress.She frowned just as Quinn kissed her, but she could feel the scorching heat of his body through her palm, making her forget about the cold immediately.The kiss lasted a very long time, and when Jenna leaned back to breathe in fresh air dazedly, she saw Quinn remove his t-shirt and a smear of faint purple caught her eye.Suddenly returning to her senses, Jenna looked closer at the thumbnail-sized, light purple frangipani flower tattooed on Quinn’s chest.When Quinn tried to kiss her again, Jenna shoved him away forcefully.She even kicked him to get him further away from her.Following her unhappy gaze, Quinn looked down and was froze
The tattoo artist saw what Jenna had typed in her notes app and immediately realized she could not speak. He was surprised for a moment. “That would depend on how big the tattoo is. If not, you can tattoo another one in the same place.”Jenna nodded, then turned around to look at Quinn. [Are you taking it off yourself or should I do it for you?]Quinn was speechless as he remembered saying something similar to Jenna while at the hotel. He had not expected her to retaliate today.A hint of helplessness leaked through his cold expression and he quickly took off his t-shirt.The tattoo artist saw Quinn’s muscled upper body and he looked at him admiringly. “Is your boyfriend a model? His body is amazing. I can’t get a body like that even if I go to the gym.”[Boss, I asked you to remove his tattoo, not look at his body.] After typing that, Jenna pointed at Quinn’s chest.The tattoo artist saw the thumbnail-sized light purple frangipani flower tattoo on Quinn’s chest.“So small? I on
Quinn felt Jenna’s fingers sliding over his skin and it was ticklish, so he grabbed her hand. He looked down to see her eyes curved, seeming very happy.He laughed, his voice low. “Satisfied?”Jenna raised her eyebrows at him, indicating ‘of course’. When they were settling the bill, Jenna paid the tattoo artist an extra five hundred dollars as a bonus, making the artist incredibly happy.He personally saw them out and told Jenna to come to him if she wanted to get a tattoo. He guaranteed that she would be satisfied.By the time Quinn and Jenna got back to the hotel, it was past 1 AM and everything was quiet.However, Jenna did not feel sleepy.She went to the bathroom to do her skincare and got into bed, snuggling into Quinn’s arms. She leaned her head on his arm when they laid down so he could easily see her phone screen. [How did you meet Ivy?]“Why do you always like to ask these kinds of things?” Quinn had noticed that every time she asked, not long after, she would work
As Jenna listened to Quinn, she frowned slightly.Quinn was a layman, so he would not know, but a musician’s hands were even more precious than any instrument. Their hands were their lifeline, so if their hands had been injured, they would rest well.They would not take the risk of not being able to hold an instrument for the rest of their lives and practice forcefully…Would Ivy be so careless about her hands?Jenna was deep in thought when she unconsciously looked up, but saw Quinn’s gaze darken seemingly in remembrance of the past, with faint tenderness in his eyes.Jealousy immediately swelled in her heart and she pinched his face forcefully before rolling out of his arms and wrapping herself in the blanket.Quinn looked at her throwing her mini tantrum and said helplessly, “Weren’t you the one who wanted to know?”Jenna kicked him, then showed him her phone. [I just asked how you guys met. Who asked you to say so much?][You still remember so clearly even though it was suc
