The Unwilling CEO's Love Game novel Chapter 37

Seeing all those kiss marks on Jocelyn's exposed skin, Willow was green with envy, totally losing her mind.

She had a hunch last night that Melvin might have been there to see Jocelyn, tossing and turning without getting a wink of sleep. Earlier, when she saw the bellhop heading to Melvin's room to fetch something, she tailed him.

Sure enough, they were having sex again.

Melvin spotted Willow without saying a word. He just grabbed his luggage, went into the room, and slammed the door right in Willow's face as if she wasn't even there.

"You're not gonna say anything?" Jocelyn could feel the rage brewing in Willow.

Melvin started getting dressed, "Explain what?"

"Last night."

"Why do I owe her any explanation? She's nobody to me." Melvin slipped on a white shirt and handed her a tie, "Tie this for me."

Jocelyn took it and she also had tied it for him before.

Back then, she loved doing this. In Jocelyn’s eyes, it was something a wife would do for her hubby.

"Get bellhop to change the sheets and duvet later." Melvin nodded toward the nightstand, "Restock condoms there."

Jocelyn's gaze followed his gesture, with her cheeks flaring up all of a sudden.

There lay the hotel's complimentary contraceptives, all used up from the night before.

Was he thinking of another round of fling tonight?

"Forget it, I'll just buy some myself." Melvin said, "The size was a bit small for me."

Jocelyn was speechless.

Noticing the bite mark on his Adam's apple was impossible to hide, Melvin gave up trying.

After tidying up, he held Jocelyn's face and planted a quick kiss on her lips, "Rest up at home, order room service if you're hungry. I'll be back after the meeting."

He seemed to disclose all his whereabouts as a husband to his wife, all patient and tender.

Jocelyn hummed in acknowledgment and watched him leave.

He had barely closed the door behind him when there was a knock.

Jocelyn, mistaking he'd forgotten something, opened the door without asking.

But it was Willow.

"Last night, were you together?" Willow cut straight to the chase.

"Isn't it obvious?" Jocelyn flashed her a smile.

No point beating around the bush when everything's clear as day.

Willow could see those love bites all over Jocelyn and knew how fierce was her fling with Melvin yesterday. She was seething with jealousy.

Willow had hoped that coming here might lead to some wonderful nights with Melvin, but he hadn't even stayed in the same room as her.

Seeing Jocelyn earlier that afternoon, she dreaded they'd hook up again. The thing Willow had scared most happened.

"You guys broke up, right?"

"Yeah. But we're both single now, so what's wrong with our staying together again?"

"So, what are you now? Friends with benefits?" Willow sneered at her.

Jocelyn wasn't fazed, "Just two singles venting emotions with interactions. We have mutual consent, so it doesn’t matter how you comment."

"Heh, as a teacher who's supposed to be a role model, how can you be so... unreserved?" Willow sized her up. "If the parents of your students saw you like this, would they still want you teaching their kids?"

Jocelyn darkened her face, "What's wrong with normal socializing? Did I steal your boyfriend or do something illegal? Willow, we're both women, why be so nasty?"

Willow was pissed, but she didn't have a stand to lecture Jocelyn.

"I've told you, Melvin is mine."

"I remember. But he's not yours yet." Jocelyn stood her ground, "When he is, if I still spend the night with him, then you can come to slap me, instead of questioning me."

Willow clenched her teeth, livid with frustration.
