“Yes.” He sounded naughty. “Teachers should know how to improvise and adapt. I have full confidence in you, Miss Hart.”“Who told you that a teacher should know how to improvise and adapt? Do you think I am a wild survivor?” She retorted irritably.“You really know a lot.” He started the car and left.‘How could this man be so dictatorial? He never listens to others at all.’ She thought to herself with a frown.But then, she could not deny that he looked charming when he raised the corner of his mouth as he was leaving. Summer got off work and walked out of the school in the afternoon. A middle-aged man in a suit walked up and stopped her.She frowned, wondering what this man was up to. When she was about to ask, the man spoke, “I am Billy Day, Mr. Valentine’s secretary. He asked me to bring you to the apartment.”No wonder. She could not refuse but to get into the car. She first returned home to pack her belongings.Only then she went to the apartment with Billy.It was an exp
Charlie spoke up, “We were there with him as well, so we brought him back.” Flabbergasted, Summer just stood there watching them carry Mark into the bedroom, and they came out after laying him on the bed. “We’ll leave Mr. Valentine in your care now; he’s all yours!” Charlie kicked Billy in the back as soon as the words left his lips. Sighing, he said, “Don’t take his words to heart. We’ll be leaving now. Good night.” With that, he brought blabbermouth Billy along with him and left. Summer then went into the bedroom, and her gaze fell upon the sleeping figure on the bed. To have fallen into his current state, he seemed to have drunk a lot. However, it gave him an extra touch of nonchalance and an air of gracious informality on top of his gorgeous appearance, making him look even more attractive and desirable.Walking over to his side, she bent slightly and took off his leather shoes. She thought to herself, ‘This man always looked so mature and collected. What could have
She coughed lightly to snap back into reality and explained, “I did not intend to sleep here; you didn’t let go of me.” Recollecting himself and keeping his emotions from showing, his lips slightly tilted upwards and said, “Where do you intend to sleep, if not here?” “…” Summer was speechless. He continued to press on, “Shouldn’t we sleep together? We are married after all.” She wetted her lips and felt nervous as she could not come up with a logical excuse. “I thought it would probably cause inconvenience for you,” she answered. His brows raised at her answer, “Are you really worried about me? Or is it you who would feel uneasy?” ‘Always so straightforward and direct, this man,’ she thought to herself. “I tend to toss and turn when I sleep and I’m not used to having someone sleeping next to me,” she said, feeling defeated. Acting like the bigger-person, he replied, “I don’t mind if you turn and land on me. Plus, you’ll be used to it soon when we sleep together more.” H
“Thanks,” said Mark, taking over the gift boxes. She stared at him in astonishment. Never did she expect for him to be so mindful of her parents; she couldn’t help but feel moved. When the couple walked in, Daisy and Solomon were setting up the table. They were stunned to see a gorgeous looking man dressed in a dark cashmere coat next to their daughter.Solomon was the first to break the silence, “Summer, introduce your friend to us.” Feeling nervous, she bit down on her lip thinking of the most appropriate way to explain. Mark stepped forward to stand close to her and snaked his arm around her. Surprised by his actions, she lifted her head to meet his eyes. However, he was looking ahead at her parents. He gave a small smile and greeted them.Upon seeing the intimate gesture, Daisy and Solomon knew something was up. Both of them looked at each other and thought of the same thing, ‘Since when did Summer start dating?”Solomon winked and signalled Daisy to say something. Put
Looking at her daughter, Daisy thought of something important, “What about the wedding? Are you not having one?” “The doctor said the first trimesters are the most crucial. So, to prevent anything from happening to the baby, we’ve decided to have it after he’s born.” Feeling bold, Summer pulled Daisy into a big hug and snuggled, “Mom, don’t be mad at me anymore, okay?” Daisy held and patted her daughter’s hand, “My daughter’s all grown up now,” she sighed, “I took care of you ever since you were a small baby, and you’ve always told me everything. Getting married is one of the most important events in one’s life and you hid it from me! Don’t I deserve to be angry?” “Yes, mom, of course you do. Why don’t you give me a few smacks as punishment to cheer up?” Just as she did when she was a child, she giggled and turned around. With her back facing her mom, she arched up her lower back. Seeing her do so, Daisy laughed and held her hand, “Since you have already decided to do so, I
The car drove along the winding road for a while and then stopped. As they reached, they saw Billy’s car arriving as well. He got down the car and passed Summer two separate gift boxes. Gasping quietly, she was amazed at the efficiency of Billy, ‘Secretaries of a large corporate company sure are on another level huh!’ Mark and Summer went into the mansion one after another, passing by the large and beautifully carved gates. Just as they stepped into the vestibule, they were struck by a fierce and hoarse voice yelling “That little pr*ck! How dare he get married behind my back! He’ll get it from me when he’s here!” “Dad, he’s arriving soon, and you can ask him then. Don’t get too worked up, you have to take care.”A gentle voice followed after. It was Yvette. Summer thought, ‘If she called him ‘dad’, that man must be Mark’s grandfather.’Through the tone and volume of the voice, she could tell that he was not delighted, furious even. Unconsciously, she shivered. “And how
Taking in the changes of their expressions, Summer knew that the good impression she had left on Gordon had faded away by now. She sighed to herself, ‘Surely they would make it difficult for me now.’ Suddenly, another hoarse voice rang, “Was everything I heard true?”Walking towards Summer, Jazz looked at her fiercely with his fists clenched. As she turned to face him, he angrily spitted out his question, “Miss Hart, are all of the things my brother said true?”Gritting her teeth, “Jazz…,” she mumbled. “Miss Hart, have you really gotten married to him?” he yelled at her. Filled with anger, his eyes had gotten redder by the minute.Mark took a step forward and shielded Summer behind him. He narrowed his eyes, and in a deepened tone, he asked his brother, “Is this how you should talk to your sister-in-law?” “Sister-in-law? Hah!” Snickering sarcastically, Jazz turned on his heel and ran out, leaving the living room.Exasperated, she called out to him, “Jazz, get back here!”
There was no doubt to that, but frowning with her brows knitted, she asked, “Then, could you think of any other place he might have gone?”“Nope,” he replied without hesitation. Facing and looking in her eyes for a moment, he spoke up again, “Although there might be someone who can find him, someone who he would talk to.” She could tell what he was thinking of from the way he looked at her. Feeling doubtful, she asked, “How are you so sure that he would want to talk to me? What if he doesn’t?” Lips twitching upwards, his slender fingers knocked lightly on the steering and refuted, “But what if he does?” After thinking about it for a moment, she scornfully said, “Then I’ll do whatever you say, but what about you? What if you were wrong?” His eyes had seemingly lit up. He was happy with her reply. Then, he replied her brashly, “Do you think I could be wrong, Miss Hart?” “Why not?” she scoffed while looking away from him. She was annoyed with the look on his face. His confide
Chapter 1814Before Jazz came to pick up Essa, his elder brother told him he should give candies if he was blocked out of the door. The big brother got experience in his own wedding years ago. Jazz kept it in his mind. At the moment, under such circumstances, he generously distributed candies to everyone. Jazz was a smart guy! People were happy with the candies. They let him in and stopped making trouble for him. People were just having fun on their wedding day and making the atmosphere livelier. Essa's wedding dress was custom-made by the most famous designer in Paris. Summer had arranged it for her. It looked gorgeous on Essa. The wedding dress had a fishtail, which set off Essa's slender waist even more as if it could be grabbed in one hand. The dress was low-back, showing her fair skin. Under the light, Essa looked amazing! Essa was so beautiful, breathtakingly beautiful! Stepping on her crystal high heels, she walked slowly towards Jazz. The distance wasn't long,
Chapter 1813The neck was Essa's most sensitive spot. She felt itchy if someone touched her there, let alone that Jazz clung tight to there for so long. She could barely stand it. Her body was squirming timidly. "Don't seduce me!" Essa was angry, "I'm not seducing you! Just sleep! But can you not cling to me so tight?" "Why? Are you turned on by me?" Essa was lying with her back to him, her cheeks blushed, and she hissed, "Who is turned on?" ‘What the hell! The man is like a sex machine!’ "Since you are so sure of it, let me check you out." Essa wanted to kill herself, but before she did, she wanted to kill him first! "Are you lying, babe?" Jazz deliberately drawled. "Get away from me! If you don't want to sleep in the guest room, go sleep on the couch! I cannot sleep with you clinging to me so tight!" But Jazz ignored her demand. Essa's whole face had turned red, so red as if it was about to bleed. "Jazz!" "You can be louder. I'm fine with it anyway
Chapter 1812Jazz naturally had no objection because he couldn’t wait to get married. He had always been determined, and as long as he made the decision, he would never change his mind!Now that he had decided to marry her, he must do it!Essa had heard her words. Although she thought it was a little too hasty, she kept silent, giving tacit consent.They were getting married in fifteen days! It was really fast!But because the bridegroom was Jazz, she was not panicked at all. She was calm because cuddling up together with him like this made her feel happy.That night was not easy. Jazz was like a wolf who had been hungry for decades, and he would not let go of the delicious meat that had been put in front of his mouth.They had sex for another whole night. Although Essa was strong, she was no match for a man.Her legs and waist were so weak that she had to support her waist with both hands in order to stand up. She thought Jazz should not have been so horny even if he had hadn'
Chapter 1811Jazz lowered his head slightly and kissed her.Essa could not pretend to be sleeping any longer, so she opened her eyes and pressed her hands against his chest."Morning, baby." He stared at her tenderly and asked, "How did you feel last night? Are you satisfied?"She glared at him, not wanting to speak.But she didn't know her eyes were full of tenderness and love now.After the sex last night, Jazz could not resist such a temptation anymore.He bowed his head, intending to kiss her."Get up! I have to go to work! If you dare to kiss me now, I will definitely beat you up!"Jazz didn't kiss her but shrugged his shoulders.He was not afraid of her threat, but he knew it was her first time last night. He thought he could not ask her to make love again in the morning. Otherwise, she would be too tired.Essa was satisfied to see him give up. She glanced at the time and found she was about to be late, so she didn't want to waste time chatting with him anymore.But w
Chapter 1810"Why are you so sensitive?" Jazz smiled lightly, enjoying her current reaction."You’re talking nonsense! You are hugging me too tight. Back away..." She blushed slightly, keeping twisting her body.She had never had such intimate contact with a man before, so she felt hot all over and acted unnaturally."Do you think this distance is too close? We will be closer…"Essa couldn't take it anymore, so she stretched out her hands, pushed against his chest, and said, "Stop it!""Why? You have to get used to this. We will have more intimate interactions, so you have to get used to..."She felt a little scared about such intimate contact.Jazz pressed his body against hers tightly. The scenery outside was blurry at night, and the two of them were alone in the same room, so it was easy for them to become turned on, and sparks were flying between them.His long fingers began to take off her clothes.Soon, she was naked. Jazz picked her up and placed her on the bed."I'm
Chapter 1809Jazz opened the car door for her with a smile and said, "Baby, have an enjoyable time at work."After finishing speaking, he started the car and stepped on the accelerator, and then, the car disappeared without a trace, leaving Essa standing there in a daze.But she still needed to enter the police station to work. Even if she stood here for two hours, she could not solve the problem. There was no point in evading issues, so she decided to get in. Then, she gritted her teeth and walked in, keeping her eyes looking straight ahead.However, even if she didn’t look at others, others would still look at her. Along the way, many people stared at her.They had not expected Essa to be so open. She had actually done such a thing at the gate of the police station!Essa felt her cheeks were burning, but she still forced a smile and tried to be a thick-skinned person.She was hypnotizing herself.When she got into her office, she felt as if she had been flayed by the gazes
Chapter 1808"A few years. Why did you call him a bastard?""You still care about him? I just want to call him a bastard. Don't be silly. There are few innocent men like me. Think about it! It is cost-effective for you to marry me. You have never been married before, and neither have I. To be honest, with my appearance and status, it was not easy to stay single till now. Don’t you think it's very touching?"Hearing this, Essa was completely speechless."It's not touching at all. Are you sure you’re not impotent? Why are you a virgin till now? As you said, you have enough merits to fascinate others!"Hearing this, Jazz on the other end of the phone became sullen and said, "Are you doubting my potency?"Women’s suspicion was the most intolerable thing to men! How could she doubt his sexual potency? It had hurt his pride!"I didn't doubt it before, but you emphasized it over and over again. It is you that made me feel suspicious..." She took a sip of water. Compared to his exaspe
Chapter 1807Essa had told her that Summer was also from an ordinary family. Seeing she and Mark were so affectionate to each other, she felt relieved and believed that Mark was a good man.It was hard to imagine such a handsome man with a high status would be the same as an ordinary man when he was with his family.On the other side of the table, Essa was putting food on Jazz’s plate, while Jazz was picking out fishbones for her. Both of them had faint smiles on their faces, showing genuine love to each other.Essa’s mother let out a sigh of relief.After dinner, Mark insisted on sending the three of them home. Essa shook her head repeatedly and rejected because there were a lot of taxis outside the hotel."This is our first dinner together, so we must send you home. In this way, we can know where you live…"Although Mark's words were polite, they had an irresistible sense of solemnity.Jazz had wanted to refuse too, but after hearing Mark’s words, he swallowed the words back.
Chapter 1806Jazz walked over and handed her red roses."You're too high-profile!" Essa kneaded her forehead with her hand, feeling a headache."Don't you like it?" Jazz smiled."I like it very much." She took a deep sniff. The roses were exuding a light fragrance, making her mood good."My brother and sister-in-law want to have dinner with you and your family tonight. Do you want to meet them?"Essa blinked, "Didn't we meet before?""Yes, but it's not formal. This time, it will be a formal meeting at the Grande Hotel at eight o'clock in the evening…"Essa rubbed her forehead, then went home, and told her mother about the dinner. Her mother was a little worried. She had only met Jazz before, and Mark was a big shot that she could only see on TV. When he suddenly wanted to meet them, Essa’s mother felt nervous.Essa kept comforting her, saying there would be no problem because Mark was very approachable and easygoing.She then changed her clothes and put on makeup. Later, Jazz
