Marriage Games with a Charming CEO novel Chapter 4

Chapter 4 Care to Join?

Upon entering the bedroom to freshen up, Alicia felt a noticeable change in her body.

A chill ran through her heart.

Her mother-in-law was ruthless. She had spiked both her and Edmond's soup, ensuring that neither could escape.

Alicia, however, had sworn she would never sleep with Edmond again. So, after emerging from the bedroom, she rolled up a towel into a barrier and placed it in the middle of the bed.

"This is our boundary. Be careful not to cross it, or I'll kick you to death."

"Can you be sure that you won't cross this boundary?"

"Don't worry. I'm allergic to scumbags."

Edmond snickered and turned off the light.

As darkness enveloped the room, Alicia nearly jumped out of her skin.

The bedroom ceiling was covered in heart-shaped glow-in-the-dark stickers, emitting a ghastly green light in the dark.

"You've cheated on me, and now you're mocking me with these luminous heart stickers plastered all over the ceiling?"

Alicia, in her frustration, threw a kick at him.

The man caught her ankle in his palm, and his touch sent a shiver up her spine.

His deep, magnetic voice carried a hint of tease. "Let's be clear. Who was the first to betray whom?"

"Let go."

"Stay still."

She froze as he leaned in, his hot body radiating heat against hers.

She ordered, "Get away from me."

In the darkness, Edmond chuckled, "Didn't we have a good time last time? Why are you rejecting me now?"

"You claimed you weren't interested in me, yet you still made a move that day. So you mean, you can change your mind, but I can't?"

"I moved my lips."

"And you think that's okay?"

He leaned forward, pressing his forehead against hers, his eyes twinkling with amusement. "If you don't remember what happened that night, I don't mind re-enacting it for you."

"I don't want to hear it."
