Sherman hugged him. “Why are you sorry? Have you been feeling very pressured lately?” she looked up and asked. Billy rolled his eyes; he squinted them and nodded. “I have been handling a lot of contracts these days, and there are several projects that are happening at the same time.”“You’re like this because you have been too busy and under a lot of pressure. No matter how hectic your work is, your health always comes first, okay?” Sherman was saddened. She placed her hand on his face and stroked it. “You’ve lost weight too.”Billy raised his hand and squeezed hers. He was feeling slightly guilty, but he still teased her, “I’m sure there are other ways to satisfy my darling. Do you want to try?”“What kind of joke is this? Give me back my husband and get some rest.” Triggered by his comical act, Sherman giggled and kicked him gently.“Are you sure you don’t want it? I’m waiting for you; such chances don’t come by easily; are you sure you want to let it go?”“Whose attention are
“Of course, we’re here for a makeup. What else did you think of? You need a makeover too.”“What crap are you talking about! Don’t you know that I’m pregnant; are you trying to poison my baby? And what’s so good about makeup; it only makes a person look like a creature.”When Grace heard what Sherman said, she pinched her ear. “Who said so; who looks like a creature?”Grace was really good at pinching ears that Sherman squealed in pain, “It’s me; I look like a creature.” Satisfied, Grace let Sherman go so that she would hurry and not delay her as she entered the building. Sherman was frustrated as she massaged her painful ear, and she murmured to herself, ‘Yeah, I look like a creature; one so pure that you have ever seen!”She stumbled backward as she spoke and stamped on the foot of someone. As Grace was almost out of sight, she quickly apologized without turning around and hurried forward.She had barely taken two steps when she heard a deep and charming voice of a man that so
The more she panicked, the more disoriented she became. Sherman’s face looked just like a ripe apple. She was frantically trying to close the tabs. She did not even know why she had so many tabs opened up. It was killing her! She then bumped her foot into the chair leg due to her carelessness. She bent forward and gasped uncontrollably, but she knocked her head onto the tabletop at the same time, which left tears in her eyes. The situation she was in had made the man’s brows arch slightly. He moved his lips and comforted her with his magnetic voice. “Don’t worry and take your time, I’ll look somewhere else…” “...” Sherman’s urge to die had gotten even stronger! But the man really turned around to face the restroom door with his back facing her. He hung up the phone and put it in the pocket of his trousers casually. Her hands moved faster than ever and she managed to close every tab that she had opened with just a few clicks. She knew that she could not stay in the
“You were almost five hundred meters away from him yet you could still smell his scent. Do you have the nose of a dog?” She felt a little tired and yawned.“Get off my back!” Grace lifted her hands and patted her back gently. “Sleep if you’re tired. I’ll wake you up when we reach the apartment.”Sherman nodded and reclined her seat before she shut her eyes and fell asleep. She was still sleeping until Billy called at three in the afternoon. He told her that they were going to a reunion dinner with their classmates, and he would go back to pick her up after he was done with work.She hung up the phone and continued sleeping after giving him a quick response. It was already six when she woke up. The sky got dark earlier since it was already at the end of autumn, so it was already dark before it reached seven o’clock. In fact, she had nothing much to prepare for before getting out of the house. She could not put makeup on, nor could she wear high heels. So, it was pretty convenient f
Sherman was not looking very well after seeing Natalie. She felt like something was stuck in her chest; even more like a fishbone that got trapped in her throat. She spent a lot of effort trying to suppress the fact that Natalie slept with Billy when she was drunk. She did not allow herself to think about it, neither did she want to think about it. 。It was not easy, but Sherman had almost wiped out that memory completely. But the presence of Natalie made her feel very uncomfortable. “Natalie Rimes. Why did this name sound so familiar? OH! I remember it now, you were the girl who was crushing desperately on Billy back then.” Somebody said, “There is really no telling what a girl will look like when she grows up. She really turned into a beautiful swan from an ugly duckling in just a few years. I would have died for her to be my girlfriend if I knew that she would turn out to be so gorgeous.” The men’s attention all fell on Natalie after hearing his words. They could
Sherman did not like games like this; she did not like it at all. She was even repelled by it from the bottom of her heart. She wanted to leave with Billy but she did not say it. He had his own friends and social circle. She should not be overly controlling over him as getting married did not mean that they had to give up on every other relationship. She was waiting for Billy to speak up and leave with her but it did not happen. It was acceptable for him to not want to leave since he had not met his classmates for such a long time. Besides, the night was just starting to liven up. She bit onto her glass of fruit juice and forced herself to look at them even though she was downhearted. Actually, she was so bored that all she wanted to do was just to scroll her phone and kill time. However, nobody there was playing with their phone, so she abandoned the idea as she did not want to be seen as spoiled and asocial. Another guy drew the “Ace” card after a few rounds. H
Everybody felt even more awkward now. They did not expect things to be so out of hand as hand-kissing was just a common courteous gesture around the world. “I’m tired. It is already ten o’clock, so let’s go home.” Sherman knew very clearly that the night would hit rock bottom after she said those words. She was right about it. There were a lot of different expressions on everybody’s face but all of them did not look very pleasant. Somebody murmured softly, “Didn’t know Billy was a hen-pecked husband.” The voice was really soft but everyone could hear it word by word as the room was very quiet.Actually, every man is prideful and it shows even more in front of their friends or classmates. They all shared the same masculinism inside their heart. Sherman could never take hand-kissing as just an etiquette. She looked at Billy, not bothered about how everyone was looking at her as the jealous wife, and said, “It’s time to go home.” She knew he had his pride
Sherman found herself to be unpopular on such an occasion.Another private box--Two men sat facing each other. One with red wine before him, while another with a glass of water."Mr. Wright, why don't you drink red wine?" Luke Bennington looked at the man drinking water.Kingsley Wright shook his head and pointed at his own throat. "I have a sore throat. By the way, how is Brad doing?" His voice sounded hoarse."Why are you even asking? Of course my son attends school now. What about you, Kingsley? You are already 37, yet you have no plans to have children?"Kingsley's lips curled. Obviously, he refused to answer the question. After taking a few sips, he said, "I've run into a very interesting person today.""A male or a female?" Luke immediately showed interest."A woman....""Is there any chemistry?"Kingsley kneaded his forehead with his slender fingers. When he said "interesting", he meant what he said. No underlying meaning. No innuendo."I've forgotten to mention tha
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
