To Love You Again, My Husband
Chapter 5: Cheating to Chasing
Airina's eyes faltered as her heart thumped. She couldn't discern if it was because she was stunned by what he did or if she was happy about it. Regardless, she was in a daze for a while before she pushed him away and tried to compose her quivering breaths.
"… You really must have gone insane, Jackson."
Without a doubt, Jackson sexily and in a slow, agonizing way, wiped his lips as if savoring the taste of her shoulders and nodded at her words.
"I agree. Because you looked brilliant tonight."
She snickered, "And you're being shockingly disrespectful. I thank you for helping me, but biting my shoulder is something only a pervert will do."
Jackson was in disbelief. He swallowed his saliva with difficulty and exhaled deeply. "I'd be a pervert for you. Enjoyed it?"
Airina frowned at his unfamiliar words. If he was deciphering about the bite he just did, she couldn't utter a definite answer – not that she liked it because he was the one who did it, but the familiar sensual tension between them occurred again. They had never shared a kiss while married; she couldn't say she wasn't stunned.
With a gulp, she firmly said, "We're divorced. It's only right for you to leave now Mister. Otherwise, I'd call the police."
Her serious eyes made him breathe out. He looked at his thumb that he used to wipe his lips and told her, "I forgot to say. I drank alcohol, I can't drive."
Airina was shocked. "Then, why did you drive?"
"I suddenly forgot about it."
"Then call your assistant or anyone."
She was starting to feel mad because of this man. She had encountered many 'coincidences' tonight due to his unreadable actions for the future – sometimes it struck her heart with anticipation, but it was more of resentment. She clenched her fists.
Jackson coyly smirked at her; his eyes shaped into a sweet crescent half-moon.
His tone was teasing, "I forgot my phone with him."
"Then do something-"
"I can't drive, so do you."
She warned him, "Really stupid."
Airina approached him, her bare shoulders heaved to her every movement, and her calculated breaths due to her tight and sexy gown made him gulp his saliva.
"Was I the only one who enjoyed this fateful encounter?"
"Yes."
Jackson extended his hand, reaching out for her hair and caressing it gently, "You've become prettier, Airina."
"I needn't your praises. Now, leave."
"I'll sleep with you."
She slapped his hand, "Leave."
He blinked his eyes, retracting his hand hesitantly, "Can I at least sleep in the guest room?"
"Because?"
"I am your beloved-"
"You are my cheating ex-husband. Leave my room."
Jackson sighed and nodded his head with his teasing smile. Furious, she slammed the door and took a deep breath.
She mumbled, "How hateful…"
