81 Ism Cancelling Our Wedding (1/2)

”I hate you!” She angrily said while pinching him hard on his side.

”I love it more when you hate me.” He repliedwith a smile,his eyes flickered in amusement. ”Because you kiss me harder this way. ”

She did not reply. Instead, she hugged him closer and felt his warmth as an object of comfort.Just few hours ago,her heart had wandered....

She could not be trusted yet. While she was still weak and frail emotionally,she should not wander far way. Or else,she might had gone astray.

Anthon,why are you still haunting me? Jim is here. How can I betray him?He loves me unconditionally and sacrificed a lot for me. And he's here again to surprise me.

She now understood why he refused Auntie Elsa's offer and why was he staying in a hotel. Why didhenot picked up her calls. It's because he followed them here!

”I just need to complete something before I can follow you here. Father must be also thinking that I have really sent you away.That would be a temporarily relief for now. I know he must be cooking something really big.”

While Jim was talking,she did not really listen. She was caught up by her guilt. She needed to be firm and must be really firm. How could she walk down the aisle sooner with purity in her heart?

”Lord,please help me forget. This is not being fair with him and this is so unjust.” She mumbled to herself as she clung to him tightly. Afraid that if she got separated for a second,a devil might snatch her away.

Realizing that they had been standing for a while already, he bent down to lift her thighs and soon she was in his arms.

”Since,we still have to attend an event later and you would not want to crumple your outfit,forget about the bed yet.” He mumbled as he walked towards the couch.

As soon as he put her down in it, he sat beside her and instantly placed her head on his chest. Jia was tall enough but Jim was much taller. So,sitting like that would be comfortable for her.

”Do you want to sleep?” Jim said as he ruffled her hair above the forehead.

”Yes. ” As she said it,she immediately closed her eyes. She also placed her arms above Jims' hands which were currently crossed to lock her in his embrace.

”Jim,why do you suddenly come over? ” She asked, her eyes were still closed.

”Sweetheart,is that even a question? ”He answered lazily as he yawned.

”Why,can't it be answered? ”

”Jia,do you ever think I could stand a day without you? ”

”Don't flatter me. Jian and I stayed two weeks last time and you never said you couldn't stand a week without me.” Jia rolled her eyes as she argued.

Jim chuckled. ”I was giving you the freedom last time to choose between me and..,”Jim paused, ”An.. him. ” He stammered,mentioning his name would,obviously,make him uncomfortable.

Jia did not say anything this time. She stole a glance at him but his eyes were closed. He paused for a long time,then went ahead.
