Chapter 778A silver gray Bentley Mulliner stopped in front of her. Kingsley rolled down the window and said, "Get in.""I know Mr. Wright was busy. I'll take a cab. It's very convenient." Sherman was thinking about her work."Do you think it's inconvenient to take my car?"Sherman shook her head, "No. Since Mr. Wright is very busy, I don't want to disturb you."He said, "I'm not busy. I have plenty of time...""Didn't you just say in the private room that you had only an hour?" She remembered clearly."It was just my excuse..." His voice was low. He didn't think that there was anything wrong with his words.Sherman was speechless.She had no way to refuse him and got in the car. She kept holding the files and reading them while thinking about something."What are you thinking about?""The manager gave me this business proposal for another purpose. He knew that I knew you, so he gave me such a big project. He thought it would be easy for me to contact you. I was disgusted."
Chapter 779Because of those words, they stopped talking, which brought a kind of embarrassing atmosphere in the car. Actually it was much more embarrassing than before.They drove forward and finally stopped in front of a residential building. Sherman sat upright and took a deep breath, "I'm sorry."It meant rejection..."I'm supposed to be the one to say sorry. It's still raining outside, and I guess you need an umbrella..."Leaning forward, Kingsley took out an umbrella from the back seat and gave it to her, as if her refusal didn't affect him at all.Though being rejected, he maintained his gentility and politeness. This was probably the difference between a mature man and a normal one.Sherman took the umbrella, got off the car and left after reminding him of safe drive.Back to her apartment, Sherman sat on the sofa with a cup of warm water in her hand. Her mind was wandering.Sherman couldn't understand why an outstanding man like him would be interested in her, a woman who just
Chapter 780Kingsley folded his legs and leaned on the seat behind him. His voice was low and hoarse.A short speech made the people present understand him very well. Many people laughed and the atmosphere was less tense."Let's begin." He nodded for a start. His deep gaze lingered for a moment as it swept over a certain spot.Those sitting in front were all women. Their voices were very nice, some of which were slightly falsely sweet but not disconcerting.When Sherman inadvertently saw a woman wink at Kingsley which was clearly seduction, she realized why there were mostly women who were dressed up. But Kingsley didn’t notice it from the beginning to the end. He maintained the same posture, while the waiter standing behind refilled his cup from time to time.Instead of coffee, Kingsley had mineral water in his cup.There were twenty people in total, and Sherman was the last one. When it was her turn, he looked over naturally.Usually he gave her a sense of oppression. This
Chapter 781"No worries." Sherman brought her hand back, and she felt her cheeks burning because of him."Lee, the bistro on South Lane..." Kingsley stood up and took off his coat.Sherman felt guilty, "Haven't you had dinner yet?""No...""Let me invite you for dinner. How about the soup we had that night?" It was totally understandable to invite him for dinner because she was responsible for his catching a cold."Okay..." Kingsley made a little smile.It was the same bistro which they had been to last time. After they were seated, Sherman stood up and walked out. She remembered there was a pharmacy next to the bistro.She came back with a medicine bag in her hand. She bought some medicine for cold.Sherman asked the waitress to bring a glass of warm water when she came in with the soup they had ordered. Then she took out some medicine according to the instruction and gave the medicine to Kingsley.Kingsley naturally took the medicine, with a sense of tacit understanding and
Chapter 782He hooked up his lips slightly and suddenly changed the subject, "You never seem to have asked me about my age. And I've never mentioned it to you either. I'm thirty-four years old..."Sherman didn't understand why he suddenly changed the topic. But when she heard that, she was a little surprised.Kingsley looked at her, rubbed between his eyebrows with his big and slender hand, and asked her, "Do you think I'm old?""No. I think you might be thirty." Sherman told the truth."My life is not like a blank sheet of paper. I've been in several relationships and I've been through a lot. What I've experienced is deeper and more intense than you can imagine..." His magnetic voice became hoarse, but it was very charming.Sherman lowered her head and drank the water. Obviously there was hidden message in his words.He was seven years older than her. He had more relationships and experiences than she did. How could a mature man of thirty-four not be able to distinguish between
Chapter 783All the way, Kingsley didn't say a word. His long body was half leaning on the leather seat. His eyes were closed as he was pretending to sleep. He seemed to have a bad cold.Sherman felt guilty. The car was quiet. Only the soft breathing could be heard.Lying in the bathtub, the warm water washing her body, Sherman involuntarily recalled the conversation she had with Kingsley at the bistro on the South Lane.She seemed to clearly remember every concise word he said and the look in his eyes...She felt her heart skip a bit. Sherman took a deep breath, held back her feelings, and then shook her head lightly.At this point, she felt exhausted. She, who was deeply heartbroken, simply didn't have the energy, mood, or courage to face a new relationship.Also, she intuited that she couldn't afford to mess with a man like him. And she knew she didn't deserve him.A yoga class was playing on the TV. She had almost recovered recently, so she thought it would be good for her t
Chapter 784"I'll try that tomorrow, but I'm afraid I'll keep going to the bathroom after drinking too much water. I'm too lazy to go to the bathroom."Grace was indeed surprisingly lazy. As long as she could sit, she would never stand. As long as she could stay still, she could try to be motionless.Sherman's eyebrows twitched a few times. The two of them went to an international department store, so the prices of the clothes there were very expensive.Grace picked out several fur coats and other styles of coats. However, Sherman didn't buy anything. Sherman just accompanied Grace to hang out and pick out clothes at the mall.After her state of mind became calm, Sherman had that kind of feeling. She felt that no matter how much the clothes were, there was not much difference.However, Grace shoved two coats at her. "These coats are just the right size for you. And the colors are pretty too."Sherman didn't want to take them, because she had a lot of clothes too. And she bought a
Chapter 785The cafe was almost full. They went just in time. There was only one table left. This cafe required reservations in advance. The price of coffee was a bit expensive. The decoration was nice and it had a particularly quiet atmosphere. Each table was separated from the other by a curved wooden track, and clear water was flowing through it all the time. The green potted plants everywhere made the place look lively. The cafe was quiet and no one was talking. People were sipping coffee and listening to the water flow. It was relaxing and enjoyable for both the body and mind. There was a wind chime on the door of the cafe. When someone pushed the door, it would make a tinkling sound. Grace looked at the door and then her eyes sparkled. She stared fervently at the man who was walking in. Almost every woman's eyes were drawn to the man. Kingsley was wearing a silver shirt with a black tie, smoky gray pants, and a camel coat over his shirt. He looked incred
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
