The Enigmatic Return novel Chapter 130

However, Jean was not in the best mood to enjoy this.

His face was even paler now.

That was because his back crashed onto the tub hard when he fell.

The stinging pain made his brows furrow. He did not even try to conceal the pain on his face.

He could not help but gasp out loud as if his body was at its limit.

“Neera!”

He still could not feel much strength in his body, so he had to muster all his strength and grit his teeth to call out to her, “Are you so unlucky to the extent that nothing good can happen in your favor? I was hurt last time because you fell down, and now I am involved in your mishaps again! Are you actually doing this on purpose?”

Neera felt embarrassed to hear those accusations.

She did not do this on purpose. She was sure of that!

In order to hide her awkwardness, she wiped off the water on her face and refuted him, “Back at you. Ever since meeting you, bad things kept happening one after another… I am here to treat you, and every time I am in your bathroom, misfortune would befall me! Why do you have to install such smooth flooring in your bathroom?”

She was just arguing with him. She did not want to lose every time when they argued.

Jean wanted to fire back at her, but when he took a good look at her, all words disappeared right before they could come out of his mouth.

From his perspective, Neera was completely soaked. Her white clothing was almost transparent now, which flaunted her voluptuous figure. He could take in everything with ease, which somewhat stirred something in him…

As he stared right into her pretty face, he had to admit that he was tempted!

He quickly looked away. He was behaving quite unnaturally now.

He even forgot to refute her.

At that moment, another sharp pain came from his back. His frown deepened.

Neera sensed that something was off with him, and she stopped quarreling with him. She asked with concern, “What’s wrong? Did you hurt yourself? Let me see!”

She then moved a little upward to look at his back.

At first, she did not think much of her posture.

However, she soon realized that she was practically hugging him.

It was a real hug.

She was busy checking his back so by the time she realized it, it was already too late!

The more embarrassing thing was that she was actually sitting on his lap.

They were so close to each other to the point that they could almost feel each other’s breath…

Neera was always late at realizing such nuances. She stiffened and was about to put some distance between them when she once again clumsily fell down!

This time, her hand was pressing on his thigh.

Jean felt something stirring in him and his blood was running crazy in him.

There was a dark look on his face, and he felt like his common sense was slowly disappearing.

Down there, something was awakening!

Neera obviously sensed that something was off. Her whole body had gone stiff as she did not dare to move an inch. Her mind was blank.

What did she touch just now?

Oh my god!

That was beyond embarrassing!

Just as she was racking her brain on how to react, she saw that Jean was staring at her with deadly serious eyes. He began with his hoarse voice, “Neera, are you here to treat me, or are you here to tempt me… Huh?”

When Jean said that, Neera felt that her legs were turning into jelly.

Her face was scorching and it finally put some feelings back into her hands. She retracted her hands rapidly.

Then, she hastily stood up and got out of the tub without looking at Jean. She ran out of the bathroom as fast as she possibly could!
