Chapter 897 Sherman finally said the words out. "In the past, I always felt that I could have it all. My marriage with her contains a lot, the love of friends, the guilty conscience of my parents, and the fulfillment of her last dream. In the end, there is nothing that can make the best of both worlds." Kingsley wrapped his arm around her slender waist and couldn't help but hold her harder. His deep eyes darkened, and he inhaled the smell of her body with a sense of reluctance. He was most afraid of her saying such words. It was still snowing outside. She was definitely late for work and was in a bad mood, so she decided not to go to work. Suddenly, she was a little exhausted when she walked on the road. She was more obsessed with this relationship than she had thought. The snow was falling heavily and the weather was even colder. There were no cars on the road at all. Suddenly, the very familiar silver Mulsanne stopped at her side. The window was roll
Chapter 898But Sherman didn't feel that distressed, at least, Kingsley did not completely conceal the truth from her, and he had told her everything.The only relief to Sherman was the agreement between Kingsley and his wife. The terms were specific, which gave her a bit of comfort, so she thought at the very least, she was not that humiliated.While eating her instant noodles, she browsed through the pages of her computer.It was almost time for bed when Sherman got two more messages. -- "Are you in bed?" --"If I have all these things settled, is there any chance that we will make up?"It was still Kingsley who sent the messages.Sherman didn't reply. She just read it and then turned off the phone. She didn't want to do the dishes, so she casually left it in the kitchen, intending to wash it tomorrow.When passing by the window, she saw that the Mulsanne was still there.Sherman paused but didn't pay much attention to it. She didn't want to think about anything, s
Chapter 899Sherman stared straight at the elevator and waited intently. When the elevator arrived, she stepped into it. The manager pressed the button for the private elevator. However, Kingsley moved his thin lips and said, "No." Then an elevator arrived. Kingsley turned around, moving his long, straight legs, and walked to the elevator. Stepping inside the elevator, he pressed the button for the ground floor. The manager was confused. 'Didn't Mr. Wright just say he was going upstairs to fetch some papers? Why did he suddenly change his mind?' Finally, he seemed to think of something. He smiled. 'Wasn't that Sherman who had just left in the elevator?' Kingsley did not seem to have shaved in the morning. The pale stubble on his chin made him look even more sexy, charming, and mature. He walked to the parking lot, got in his car, and drove out. He drove slowly following the bus in front. Sherman was on the bus, so was Billy, who
Chapter 900However, what would others think of her? How could others know the agreement? They would only think that she was a mistress. Today, something was abnormal. Lee didn't come over, nor did Bentley Mulsanne. It was very peaceful today.She seemed to have returned to the days after the divorce. She ate, worked, practiced yoga, and watched TV alone. This kind of life was really dull. There had been a robbery in the apartment she lived. Although she was bold, she still felt a little worried.Therefore, she planned to rent another apartment. Even if it was expensive, she was willing to rent. The most important thing for a single woman now was safety. While it was time for lunch, Sherman went to the most expensive apartment community, where many celebrities lived. It was said that not only the security measures were very strict, but also the privacy of residents was well-protected. The only shortcoming was that the rent was expensive. She looked at the layout of the
Chapter 901But he didn't know what to do with her, nor did he know what he should do.His low breath fell on the top of her head. Kingsley swallowed and hugged her tightly again. Then he let go of her reluctantly.Sherman lowered her head and walked away.Her hair covered her face. He couldn't see her look clearly.This time he didn't stop her or say anything. He stood still and let her disappear in front of his deep eyes.He had quit smoking for more than ten years. However, he wanted to smoke at this moment. He wanted to feel the nicotine being inhaled from his lips into his lungs.Kingsley didn't suppress himself. He went to the supermarket across the street and bought a box of cigarettes.Standing by the car, he held the cigarette with his right fingertips. The smoke was dazzling, and he narrowed his left eye slightly.More than ten years had passed by. He wasn't quite familiar with the posture of smoking or its smell.He stood in the cold wind for a long time.However,
Chapter 902"I think Mr. Wright handled it pretty well. It would have been irresponsible for him to have resisted the marriage, or to have been married for real. Obviously, neither was the best choice." Sherman wasn't listening to her. Grace shut her mouth. She had said that everyone saw things differently. They had hotpot in the morning until noon. They spent the afternoon nestling on the couch, watching a variety show to relax and cheer up their spirits. Grace left in the evening. When she got home, she called Summer and told her about Sherman. She told her what she thought about it, and one of her friends said that their marriage was for charity. Summer smiled and asked Grace, "Do you know what charity means? It is kindness. However, that Mr. Wright married Merlin was not out of kindness. It was out of guilt, and he wanted to repay the favor. It was completely different from charity. What he wanted was peace of mind. He hoped he would not feel guil
Chapter 903Natalie walked over and sat opposite Sherman. Sherman sipped her coffee expressionlessly."Did you break up with your boyfriend? Or did you get dumped?" Natalie asked.Sherman didn't look at her but stirred her coffee. Natalie added, "A few days ago, I saw him shopping with a woman at the mall. They don't seem to be close, but they weren't ordinary friends.""Please get out of here; otherwise I'll have the attendant ask you to leave." Sherman said calmly though she was a little annoyed.Natalie smiled and said, "I just think we are the same. You've been dumped, so have I."Few people in Santabaca knew Kingsley's identity and that he was married. Therefore, Natalie didn't know that either.Just like at that business party, some people knew a little about his identity, but not in detail."However, do you believe that I will eventually marry Billy?" Natalie's voice was soft, but with an inevitable determination.Sherman thought she was ridiculous, "Should I send you a
Chapter 904Merlin knew what he wanted to say. She looked up and also took a sip of water, "I heard Luke say that you have someone you like.""Yes." Kingsley confessed.Merlin was gentle, which had to do with her heart disease. She said slowly, "Do you like her so much?""No one but her has given me such an intense feeling, which was very special..." He said.Merlin touched the edge of her cup lightly with her fingers. She had liked him since she was a child. She didn't show her love to him, but she believed that he must know that.After freezing for a moment, she raised her head, "So, are you going to divorce me?"Kingsley said gently, "I don't want to miss her. Merlin, I don't get crushes all the time. The first woman I had a crush on has passed away and this is my last time to have a crush on a woman.""I'll think about it." Merlin's voice was slow. She did everything slowly and she rarely got excited."Okay." Kingsley didn't force her to answer his question. She needed tim
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
