A Vengeful Ex-Wife novel Chapter 486

James pressed Maria against the wall, kissing her passionately. "Okay, but sleep with me tonight."

Their bodies clung to each other, skin to skin.

"You wish! Let me go!"

James took out a black card from his pocket and gave it to her. "There is a new series of women's handbags in your favorite brand, and those bags are limited edition. I've put enough money in this card for you to buy the entire store. You can buy whatever your heart desires."

Maria rolled her eyes at him. "Don't think you can buy me off with money!"

"I know that all too well, honey." James drew closer towards her, and continued kissing her. "I took our son out for half a month. And since he had a good time, maybe I deserve a reward tonight. What do you think?"

The scent of her body aroused him. Only one thing was in his mind right now: he wanted to have sex with her.

But unfortunately, he couldn't do as he pleased because he had promised to respect her opinion.

Just when Maria was about to say something, a door opened nearby and a maid came out of the room.

They both turned around at the same time. The maid saw them clinging to each other. She bowed and quickly apologized. "My apologies, Mr. and Mrs. Xi. The water is running out, so I was going to fetch some more for the boys."

James just nodded indifferently at the maid, and then he turned his gaze towards Maria.

Mary was the maid who came out of the room just now. Maria's eyes fell on her face and caught sight of her glancing at James the moment she turned around.

But his eyes were drawn to Maria. He didn't notice anything else around him, including the maid.

A few days back, Maria had asked Bob about Mary, and she had been observing this maid carefully all this time. It was true that Mary had been taking good care of the boys.

"What's on your mind right now?" James asked. He felt dissatisfied since he didn't get any response from her after a long time.

Maria withdrew her gaze from the maid and turned her attention to him.

Since James had been comatose for more than two years, his figure wasn't as good as it used to be. But he was so self-disciplined that as soon as he was strong enough to do exercises, he did so every morning. It didn't take long for his figure to return to its former glory.

After having stayed in Africa with Coy for about fifteen days, his stern face had grown a little darker. He had always been charming, but he had become even manlier now that he was darker.

After all, whether it was his frail beauty when he was still sickly, the emaciation during his recovery, the arrogant, domineering aura he exuded, or the tenderness in his eyes in the way he looked at her now, he was attractive to any woman in existence.

Her silence further aroused his dissatisfaction. He then pinched her chin, forcing her to look at him. In a deep voice, he warned, "If you don't say anything, I'll fuck you right here, right now."

When his patience was stretched thin, he pressed his lips against hers.

Maria was swept by the passion of the moment. She wanted to forget about the past and just be with him.

But the following second, the embers of an old scar arose in her heart. She could never forget the insults, pain, and misfortune he brought upon her when she first came back to H City.

When Maria came to her senses, she had become disheveled, and the man was doing whatever he desired with her body.

At once, she stopped him. "James, if you keep doing this, I'll leave." If the two kids didn't insist on staying here for the night, she would've gone back to Golden Mansion.

Left with no other choice, James kissed her forehead and said, "Honey, I'm going to take a shower. Wait for me in the room."
