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
"Thank you. I'm fine. I can stand up by myself." By supporting herself with both hands on the ground, she struggled to stand up, looking clumsy.She could feel his aura. It was oppressive and also intimidating.Kingsley's lips curled as he took off his coat and put it on his arm, casually and elegantly. "Please wait a moment."Sherman stood still despite being a little puzzled. She had vomited excessively, in which all the vomitus was stuck to his coat. The smell was stronger that not even she could stand it.Yet, the man did not show the slightest disgust, not even annoyance, as if he did not smell it. He made a call.After a while, another tall man walked over, holding a bottle of mineral water in his hand.Kingsley handed the bottle to her after taking it from that man. "I think you need a bottle of mineral water to rinse your mouth..." His voice still sounded hoarse. Sherman was startled again. She sincerely thanked him upon receiving the bottle of mineral water. "Thank yo
Sherman was leaning against the rear seat window emotionlessly. Her eyes were vacantly looking at the passing pedestrians and vehicles through the window...By the time she reached her apartment, Billy was already home, drinking water. She did not expect him to be home this early.She did not bother to give him a glance. Instead, she changed to slippers and placed her bag on a couch. Seeing this, Billy stopped drinking water and stood in front of her. "What's wrong with you today?"He was referring to her reactions and behaviors at the reunion party.Sherman paused and looked at him indifferently. "What about you? Did you finally kiss Natalie's hand?"'So, now he questions me? Does he think that my reactions have embarrassed him?''"I'm the first who are asking. Shouldn't you answer my question first?" Billy's peach blossom eyes narrowed slightly."Well, I will answer yours if you answer mine. Did you kiss Natalie's hand in the end?""No." Billy's lips were twitching as he frow
Sherman did not leave. Instead, she rang the doorbell again. This time, a voice came. "Please wait a moment."After a while, the door of the villa opened, and Kingsley appeared in front of her. Donned in a bathrobe, he was wiping his wet hair. Apparently, he had just taken a shower.As soon as he recognized Sherman, he raised his eyebrows slightly and moved his thin lips. "Sorry, I was taking a bath just now. Please come in."Sherman could see that he was in a hurry because the bathrobe was not fastened, but she didn't expect him to apologize. "It's okay. I came abruptly." She felt a bit awkward.The villa was very large and clean. The floor on the ground was so bright that it could illuminate the shadows, and every part of the villa was indescribably well-crafted. Just like its owner, it was exquisite, outstanding, and elegant.It was difficult for her to imagine that this was a place where a man lived because there was zero clutter. Exquisiteness and elegance were the only words
Sherman could not bring herself to hear Kingsley coughing. She put down the water glass and looked at him."Is there where your kitchen is?"Kingsley nodded but saw that she was already on her way to the open kitchen. As she walked, she said, "I felt sorry for what happened yesterday. To express my apology, I'll cook you something."'Cook something?' Kingsley frowned. Although he did not like people touching the things in his villa at will, he did not say a word this time.Apparently, his throat was severely inflamed. She opened the refrigerator and found some pears and mint leaves. They were ingredients of some sore throat remedy that was just right for him, and she had come across its recipe on the Internet two days ago.Kingsley did not make a sound. Instead, his deep black eyes fell on her, looking at her dully. There were no changes in his emotion.Sherman soaked the mint leaves in the water. She then washed the pears, peeled, cut them, and removed their cores and pedicles.A
Chapter 701Hearing his words, Sherman was too embarrassed to refuse him again, so she had to agree with him. He hummed lightly with contentment. Then he lowered his head and ate the pear soup.At this time, Sherman didn't make a sound either. She ate very quietly and hardly made a sound. She felt that it was oppressive to stay with a man of such a high status...Afterwards, she stood at the gate of Kingsley's villa and waited for him. He went to the garage, started a silver Bentley Mulliner, turned the car around, and parked it beside her.Kingsley leaned his slender body to the right and opened the car door for her."Thanks." Sherman said. Then she sat in the passenger seat, lowered her head, and fastened her seat belt.Only after that did Kingsley start the car and drive at an even speed.Sherman sat comfortably, without any desire to vomit. When the car passed the speed bump on the ground, she lowered her body slightly and held her belly with her hand.He had noticed her sm
Chapter 702So she watched Noah grow up and she was closest to Noah. Noah listened to her and liked her very much.Just when Sherman saw the text message, her heartbeat accelerated. She looked out the window anxiously and said, "Mr. Wright, please stop at a place nearest to the First Santabaca Hospital.""What's wrong?" The man said in a low and mellow voice."My brother was in a car accident. He is in the hospital now." Sherman was a little anxious and worried."I'll send you there. Hang on..." He said in a magnetic voice. He steered the wheel to the left with his slender, clean and big hands, and accelerated.The car drove very fast. It was twelve o'clock now, which was the rush hour. There were a lot of traffic on the road, but he could drive nimbly.Originally, it would take her twenty-five minutes to reach the First Santabaca Hospital. However, it only took her fifteen minutes to get there in the end.The car stopped at the entrance of the hospital. Sherman's face was a li
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
