The dark shade of royal blue had contrasted with her pale skin tone beautifully. As it accentuated her complexion, she looked extremely dazzling. The thigh-high slit on the left side of the dress brought out her long slim legs. It was alluring and almost tempting as her legs would only be partly visible occasionally as the skirt flowed. He had not expected for her to look so ravishing in the dress. He had frozen for a moment and felt his blood rush. His eyes darkened, and he swallowed down a gulp before exclaiming, “Change to the next!”He furrowed his brows as he thought, ‘That slit was almost up to her waist. Why are the designs of the dresses here getting so poor?’Summer examined herself in the mirror and thought, ‘Does it look that bad on me? Sure, it’s kind of exposing, but it’s still a pretty dress.’ After going back and forth for quite some time, she had nearly tried on every dress the shop assistant had brought to her, but the picky man outside was not satisfied with
Summer was dressed in a long red strapless dobby mesh tube dress, exposing her neck and defined clavicles. It accentuated her complexion, making her stunning.A matching red veil was draped over her right shoulder and around her waist, and it floated along, drawing beautiful arcs in the air as she walked.Her makeup was light, and her silky black hair was styled with a similar but shorter veil attached in her hair into a low ponytail that rested on top of her shoulders.She had looked enchanting, pristine and flawless. Her dress was not revealing, but it had a subtle alluring feel to it as it fitted on her. It was an indescribable feeling, but her beauty could easily take everyone’s breath away.She hooked her arm around through Mark’s, and he was smartly dressed in a nice suit. His features were defined with his deep dark eyes, and he was easily made the center of attention as he radiated undeniable elegance and grace.Spamming their cameras with pictures, the reporters took and
Mark eyed her swiftly and said, “You don’t feel safe.” “You’re saying as if I’m a man. Well, I’m not, and it’s not like I would do anything inappropriate to her,” she replied as she wondered if she had given off an untrustworthy impression.Snatching the opportunity to butt in, Billy said, “Hey, you guys can brush off the wedding party and return gifts for guests but let me remind y’all that we’re definitely playing that game tonight!” Charlie agreed as well, he said, directing to Mark, “Yeah, bro. You better prepare yourself. You can’t run away this time.” Mark furrowed his brows after taking a short glance at their excited faces. Without giving them a reply, he turned and left. “We can take his silence as his consent, right?” Billy said, bumping his shoulder into Charlie’s.“I think so.” “Let’s plan something extra exciting. Shoot me with the most wicked ideas you have!” Upon hearing the thrill in their voices as they discussed, Sherman shook her head in helplessness as
“You had better believe I will ask my brother-in-law to kick you out of here.” Amara would not back down. She shot Lily a sideways look.Failing to win the argument, Lily went physical. But Amara would not take it lying down.The commotion started to attract attention. Sherman nudged Summer’s arm as she had noticed it, too. “Hey, your sister-in-law is making trouble again?”Summer was getting some shut-eye when she heard Sherman. She opened her eyes and looked over, just in time to see Amara attacking Lily.It was impossible to get a moment of peace when Amara was present.Summer frowned. She walked over and pulled Amara over with one hand. “Knock it off, Amara!”“Not yet! She scratched my face! I swear will destroy hers!”“If you dare to make trouble again, I will instruct the security guards to throw you out!” Summer warned her with a serious face.Amara yielded, but Lily egged her on. “I dare you to do that. Bring it on!”The somewhat cooled down atmosphere heated up again.
In the presidential suite.Mark put Summer on the settee. When he looked at her pink cheeks, anger built up inside him.“You saw the wine coming your way, right? Why didn’t you dodge?”His voice was deep. When he spoke, there was a familiar and pleasing scent. He really sounded angry.But Summer somehow felt it pleasant to the ears. She wrinkled her nose and looked up at him with sparkling eyes. “I am dizzy.”Her voice was as soft as the summer breeze, her expression telling him she felt hurt. She bit her lip, her face reddening with a tinge of fascinating charm.Mark swallowed involuntarily, reaching to loosen his tie, which he felt too restricted. “Go take a shower and then take a good rest. Call me if anything.”“Okay.”After he left, she took a shower, and then drank two large glasses of water. She felt better after a long rest.After the incident, Amara would certainly be too afraid to make trouble again.Summer got changed and took a nap on the settee for three hours. S
As soon as two minutes expired, Billy whipped the belt on Mark’s back, one lash after another.Red marks gradually appeared on Mark’s back. Summer knew that Billy was doing it for real.She bit her lip in hesitation.“The sooner you do it, the earlier we can wrap this up. Otherwise, we can go on the entire night.” While speaking, Billy increased the force of the whipping. No way he could abuse Mark like this normally. He did not want to miss this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.The lashing carried on. Summer’s heart thumped and ached when she saw the bruises on Mark’s back.‘Here goes nothing!’ She gritted her teeth. Playing games such as this was common during wedding day. Instead of shilly-shallying, she thought she might as well end this quickly. Billy stopped and grinned.Summer came up, picked up the candy on his forehead with her mouth and then ate it. When they had eye to eye, her heart pounded. She quickly looked away.She was aware that her cheeks must be red, like dr
Everyone except Raine was present for breakfast in the Valentine mansion.Yvette looked up at Mark. “Your grandma called this morning. She asked you to visit her in Norwood.”“Did she say anything else?” He stopped what he was doing. His deep voice had a touch of gentleness.“She said that she hadn’t seen you for a long time and missed you. But she is busy and can’t come. So she asked you to go to Norwood instead.”“Okay.” He gently replied. “I will go with Summer tomorrow.”‘Summer?’As far as Summer could remember, this was the first time Mark called her by her name. It felt amazingly pleasing to the ears.Yvette’s expression changed slightly, but she hid it well.“Without Summer here, Mom will feel lonely in this vast mansion.” She made a lovely excuse for Summer.What else could Summer say when Yvette had already said so?Summer snapped back and let out a smile. “Mom has a point. I will stay.”Pleased with the answer, Yvette patted her on her shoulder. It looked like thi
She turned to look at him. “You’re hungry?”He pinched his brow with his fingers, his breath smelling of alcohol. “I drank quite a lot with clients. I need something to fill my stomach.”“I will see what I can get.” She got up and went into the kitchen.There was still some beef, spinach, and carrots in the fridge.So she made him a bowl of spinach beef soup.As Mark stared at the bowl of spinach beef soup, she turned around and looked at him in puzzlement. “What is going on?”“There are carrots in there.”“Carrot is not a poison.” She ignored him and went to take a shower.He had alcohol all night while out entertaining clients. Now the tantalizing aroma of the soup made him hungry.He looked at the carrots in the soup again and frowned. It was not after a while later he picked up the spoon and dug in.Summer emerged from the shower after half an hour.Mark was lying on the bed and had crashed out.She padded over to the coffee table and saw something ludicrous.Now she k
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
