Chapter 572 - What can I come? (1/2)

Ryn was fooled by the innocent smile Jeremy had. She thought he really was serious about massaging her poor arching body but...

”I can't believe this,” she muttered breathlessly as she glared at the same panting Jeremy lying beside her. She pushed him again when he made another attempt, this time he not only trapping her lips but also her body by placing himself on top of her.

”Don't you feel better?” he asked as he leered. His hands rested beneath his head as he looked at her with twinkling eyes.

”Monster,” she choked out.

He leaned to the side and pulled her head closer. Before she could understand what he was doing, their lips met and he tried to deeper the kiss without asking. She pushed him away with a scowl.

”J!”

”Hmm... I guess I was not working hard enough to make you feel better,” he whispered huskily and proceeded to work harder, ignoring the cries coming from his girlfriend.

It was later that she realized how naive she was despite how older and wiser she was. She glared at him more once she managed to get out from the tangle aka him. He just chuckled and ignored the glare. He was too happy to care how angry she was right now.

Half an hour later, she found herself in the kitchen preparing lunch for the two of them. He refused to leave and whɨnėd about being hungry. In the end, she told him to do whatever he wanted while she made lunch.

”Don't you feel guilty skipping your work this morning?” she asked when he appeared in the kitchen while she was busy cooking.

”I'll go after lunch. Later I have to go to the practice,” he replied. He was only wrapped in a bathrobe. His hair was still wet from the quick shower he had. He wrapped his arms around her from the back without warning and rested his chin on top of her right shoulder. ”Have I told you how much I miss you? And I love you?”

”Hmph...” she refused to answer. She ignored the head and the hands and focussed on her cooking.

”Why are you ignoring me? Are you still angry at me?” he asked and started to drop kisses along her nape. His naughty hands also started to move.

”I'm cooking, J. Stop interrupting me or we won't have any lunch to eat,” she muttered, trying to push him away. Why was he being so difficult today? Can't he see how busy she was? And he was the one just now telling her how starving he was and wanted to eat the food she cooked.

And now he was the one interrupting her from cooking with his kisses and touches.

”I love you, Catherine. I am truly in love with you,” ignoring her words, he confessed his love toward her. He really wanted her to understand that he truly wanted her. He wanted her to realize that he was not playing with her heart. His plan was to marry her and live with her for the rest of their life.

If only she truly opened her heart and accepted him fully. He knew she only accepted him on the surface but the hurt he unintentionally gave her truly left a scar in her heart and made her scared.

What should he do to cure the pain?

He sighed. He dropped the last kiss on her cheek before he left her cooking in peace.

He went to the bedroom to get his phone. He actually put it on silent secretly before he started his 'massage' so he would not get interrupted in the middle of the 'session'.

He checked how many miscalls and messages he had and pursed his lips thoughtfully to see most of them came from  Jacob, his personal ȧssistant.

He read the messages quickly before he called his father. He spent just a few minutes telling the older man that he was with Ryn and he was going to work after lunch. Of course, he did not tell his father what they just did. It was a private matter between the lovers.
