Chapter 353 Are You Tired of Living?

Javier hid in a corner from Claire. Initially, he thought it was good to let her drink away the pain, but by the looks of it, it seemed she was trying to drink herself to death. His heart ached as he strode toward her and took away the glass she was holding. "Stop drinking," he demanded. Claire had never been good at holding her alcohol, and she drank too quickly, so she was already showing signs of being drunk. When she saw Javier coming to take her glass, she was quite upset. "Javier, can you stop worrying about me just this once?" Claire pushed Javier away fiercely. Seeing that her glass was gone, she picked up the bottle and poured the liquid into her mouth.

Chapter 355 I Beg of You

Javier's lips lingered on hers as if he were savoring a rare delicacy. Claire's mind went blank, but she suddenly remembered her past with Javier, and the kiss he forced on her when she was drunk today. All of this made her puzzled. She didn't know why he was doing this to her. Was it because he really had plans to be with her for a lifetime and wanted to make it public? But that was impossible. Javier was too mysterious and too hard to read. Lost in thought, she completely forgot that he was still kissing her, allowing him to take advantage of her for no reason. After a while, Claire finally snapped out of her shock and quickly pushed him away. "That's enough!" Claire's face turned red with anger and embarrassment as she glared at him.Javier was secretly overjoyed that he managed to tease her; even in the face of her anger, he didn't show any sign of annoyance."You taste delicious," Javier commented while wiping the corner of his mouth.Claire's mind went blank again at his act
