His crisp shirt has a few buttons opened at the front, revealing his toned chest!!
Jeslyn was still ogling at his chest and didn’t realize he was standing in front of her.
With a swift movement, Maverick turned her and made her lie on the desk, pinning her on it with his strong hands.
Jeslyn gasped at his sinfully handsome cold face that was a few centimeters away from her face.
Jeslyn internally screamed for him to get off, but her body was doing something else. She had been shy around Ray and wouldn’t let Ray get too close to her, however, her reaction to Maverick was different.
She blinked her long lashes as her face turned pink. She wasn’t expecting him to do anything to her, but if his sexy lips get closer to hers, she’ll welcome them. After all, he’s her husband, and also, it wouldn’t be bad to give her innocence to a man this handsome. She thought.
Maverick closed his eyes and lowered his head to the crook of her neck. He took a sniff of her fruity fragrance. Text © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.
Like he was expecting something or trying to compare her scent to someone else, he waited a little longer before his brows creased.
He shifted his head off her neck and stared into her hazel pupil. Those pupils look exactly like his son’s, but different from the girl in his memory.
On that day when he heard Jeslyn’s voice, he didn’t intend to reply to her, after all, he was never the type to talk too much, let alone talk to strangers.
But after turning around and seeing her so broken, plus those iris that reminded him of his son, Maverick couldn’t ignore her and his countenance changed to make her feel comfortable.
Those words he said to her, Maverick wasn’t sure why he said them. He couldn’t place his fingers on why he cared to warn her, nor did he understand why he felt a little excited when she still agreed to marry him despite knowing what she would face.
After marrying her, he didn’t ask about her for a week because he was busy doing what took him to Rose City, so he left her alone to deal with her problems until he saw her on the road.
When she went to prison, Maverick was busy with his son’s problem, thinking the idiot he told to bring her out was doing his job.
After he brought her back to Country M, Maverick found her to have a tiny bit of something that reminded him of that person, so he did a thorough background check on Jeslyn.
The result was far from what he expected. Jeslyn was not the woman but something in him didn’t want to believe it. After all, his instinct had never been wrong.
And he is here to find out. What he is about to make Jeslyn go through is the last option to prove if he is wrong or right and he hopes his instinct would be wrong for once, or he wasn’t sure what he wanted.
Looking into those mesmerizing eyes of hers that seemed to have no effect on him, Maverick spoke, “I warned you never to come here.”
He didn’t sound angry but the way he said it sent a chill down Jeslyn’s spine.
For some reason, Jeslyn doesn’t seem to fear this man, but whenever he looks at her with emotionless eyes or talks to her with a passionless voice, her heart jumps.
“I- I…” Jeslyn’s voice sounded funnily low and awkward.
Maverick’s lips curled into something other than a smile, “you are disobedient, aren’t you?”
Jeslyn nodded and then shook her head. “I’m a…” she swallowed. She gently bit her lower lip to stop herself from embarrassing herself.
“In the contract, you aren’t supposed to be here. Breaking the rules will extend your stay, Jeslyn Lee.”
Maverick stated, however, Jeslyn’s eyes were glued to his moving lips.
Seeing how she was looking lustfully at his face, Maverick continued,
“Secondly, you are allowed to ask me for anything, including your rights as my wife. However, you are not allowed to seduce me. Falling in love with me is at your own risk, so don’t.”
“Can you kiss me?” Jeslyn subconsciously thought out loud. 6
She widened her eyes in horror when she realized what she had just said.
Yes, it was in her thought, it had always been, but she didn’t mean to ever say it out loud. However, watching those sexy lips of his moving as he talked, she couldn’t help herself as she let the words out. Whenever she saw people making out, or when Ray wants to get touchy-feely with her, although she also wants it, her body reacts differently. It rejects him outright like he was disgusting.
But why is she feeling like Maverick was her everything? Why is she getting wet down there when he hasn’t even touched her? Why is she expecting him to kiss her? And why did she even ask him to kiss her? Why?!
Although Jeslyn was internally asking all the whys in the world, her face was communicating a different emotion.
Maverick didn’t react to that. But he marveled at how she boldly asked it. Maverick let her go and Jeslyn immediately hurried to stand on her feet and bowed slightly to hide her tomato face.
“I- I’m so sorry for saying such words. I didn’t mean it… hehe… I don’t know what’s wrong with me. Ha.ha.ha…” She laughed awkwardly like that would erase her shame.
Maverick snaked his hand around her waist and yanked her to his chest then watched her gasp at his
action.
He searched her dreaming eyes for something. He could tell she was ready for anything he would do to her, which left him wondering for how long she had been starving herself.
Maverick’s eyes surveyed her pretty red face before he lowered his head.
Jeslyn could feel his breath fanning her flushed face. The palpitation of her heart grew louder and faster as she anticipated his next point of action.
