Chapter 107 - Lovers Island (2/2)
Not only this, Jackson was so gentle with her. Aside from hugging and kissing, he had never pushed himself to her. As if, he wanted to court her all over again. It made Jessica giggled. Why the need to court when they were already married?
Jessica looked at her left hand. She was wearing a big diamond ring and a wedding ring. It sparkles under the sun as if it was announcing the world that she was taken.
When she woke up, she was already wearing it. Jackson had a wedding band on his left hand too, to show that he too was taken.
As she swings herself slowly under the tree, she could smell the ocean breeze. A month on the island had given her a slight tan. It was already January but this place was still hot as ever. It could only mean that they were close to the equator. There were only summer and raining season in this island.
Her hobbies were limited and so she take a swim in the ocean most of the time, to cool herself down. Noticing her tanning, Jackson had ordered his men to get her some sunblocks. So every time she swims now, Jackson would give her a thick coat of lotion. He was always very cautious about her well-being. If he wasn't her husband, then Jessica would've been annoyed a long time ago. But instead of getting annoyed, Jessica found it heartwarming and so she had let him do whatever he wanted to. It was for her own good anyways. Jackson didn't seem to have ill intentions.
As she read through her book, time went fast. She wouldn't have noticed that it was almost getting dark until a shadow loomed over her.
”Little girl, why are still here outside? Look at your legs, mosquitoes had been eating you like a buffet.”
Jessica looked up and saw Jackson's countenance. He was wearing beige shorts and a white cotton shirt. His long and black straight hair was up in a bun. His clean-shaven face made him look younger than his age. Also, his tan was making him irresistible. Oh, and his eyes, his dark brown eyes made her feel like he could dominate her world if he wishes to. Contrary to that, he was a gentleman.
Hearing no response and that she was gawking at him, Jackson chuckled. For a month now, he had noticed that there had been instances where she just looks at him in admiration. Of course, he felt proud, but all of these looks are only for her. He would do everything for her.
April, as her real name goes, Jessica was now his and his alone. Jessica was his wife now. He even made a fake identity for her and their marriage, to make it sound legal.
