Love Is a Sweet Addiction

“You provoke me first.”

“I’ve told you that it was an accident. I was wrong. I apologize. Is that Okay?”

“No.”

“Then what do you want? Do you want to have sex with me right here and right now?” Esther gave up struggling and stared at him. “I am your aunt. Do you dare to do that?”

“You dare to come here and hook up with your nephew. Why wouldn’t I dare to do that?” James sneered and hugged her waist tightly. He lowered his head and kissed her lips. “Besides, we have tried that before and we only have one last step to finish. Let’s finish it today. Then we’ll have no regret.”

“You dare?” These words did not come from Esther, but from the direction of the bedroom door.

Esther and James, who were close to each other, were stunned at the same time when they heard this voice. They instinctively turned to look at the door.

When she saw Terence at the door, Esther’s face turned pale and she quickly left James’s embrace.

She didn’t dare to look at Terence’s expression at all, because his expression was so cold and frightening, as well as the gaze that shot at her…

She was more scared of Terence than that dark shadow, so she took a deep breath with great difficulty. She did not understand why Terence, who was supposed to be living in the backyard, could suddenly appear. Furthermore, he had seen such an embarrassing scene.

James looked at Terence and then looked at Esther. Finally, he fixed his gaze on Terence. “Uncle Terence, Esther said that she was afraid and couldn’t fall asleep. I felt that she was indeed afraid. So I hope you can understand.”

He sounded like he was explaining for Esther, but his tone was clearly provocative.

Although for no reason, he was fearful of James who possessed a powerful aura, in front of women, he would still try to be calm and brave.

Terence was wearing a nightgown and his hair was slightly wet. It was obvious that he had just taken a bath.

He gracefully walked in and glanced at James, who was only wearing a towel. Then he raised his hand and tightened Esther’s pajamas, which were already loose.

Esther felt embarrassed and hurriedly checked her pajamas.

“Since you call me ‘uncle’, then you must know she’s your aunt. How can you call her by name since she’s an elder?” He said this to James with an indifferent tone.

He did not lose his temper, nor did he seem to be angry. From beginning to end, he was as graceful as a king.

James thought that after seeing what had happened, Terence would definitely be furious and revealed his true side. He didn’t expect his uncle’s psychological quality to be so good. But, the reason why he was able to be so calm was that he didn’t love Esther, right?

If he doted on Esther as he showed to others, how could he be so indifferent when seeing what she had done with her nephew?

“Sorry, I was wrong.” James smiled at them. “The house is very safe. Aunt Esther, you can go back to your room and rest in peace.”

“Even if it is not safe, you shouldn’t have come to disturb James so late.” Terence looked down at Esther and said seriously, “Men can’t resist any temptation at this time. Understand?”

“I see.” Esther still looked down at the ground. She was very regretful.Published by Nôv'elD/rama.Org.

James’s bedroom was in the same corridor as Esther’s. They were only about ten meters away from each other.

However, Esther felt that it was so difficult to walk through this short distance. She felt as if there were heavy stones tied to her feet.

All of this was because of the man in front of her. Esther knew that he was not as calm as he appeared to be. Only she could sense the rage hidden in his body.

After they entered the bedroom, Esther immediately apologized, “Sorry, I was really scared just now, so I ran into James’s bedroom in panic.”

“Scared? What scared you just now?” Terence looked at her.

He was so tall that he needed to look down at Esther when standing in front of her, which was an overwhelming pressure!

Esther pointed in the direction of the window and said cautiously, “I just saw a person lying on the windowsill…”

Terence glanced at the window. He even didn’t want to check the window, let alone believing her nonsense.

Esther walked over, lifted the snow-white curtain, pushed open the window, and looked out.

There was no one there.

Was it just an illusion? But she was not asleep. How could she have an illusion?

Did she really go mad like that female employee of the Anetly Group after returning from the Fairy Mountain?

Thinking that she might lose her mind one day, Esther stepped back and sat down on the edge of the sofa, her face turning pale.

Looking at her expression, Terence believed that she was scared by a nightmare. However, Terence was still unable to suppress the anger in his heart when he thought of the scene that she and James were hugging each other, who were almost naked.

“Even if you’re scared and panic, you can’t forget where your husband’s bedroom is, right?” Terence took a step forward and pinched her chin. Staring at her tearful eyes, he said coldly, “Did you only have James, your ex-boyfriend, in your heart from the beginning to now?”

It was not surprising for her to think of James in the first place. Terence did not forget that she once hugged his hand and shouting James’s name on the wedding night.

There was indescribable grievance and frustration in his heart, but he didn’t know what to do with her. The hardest thing to control in this world were people’s thoughts.

What made him even more annoyed was that he did not understand why he cared so much about who she was thinking about. Why did he rush over after hearing the servant say that his wife had rushed into James’ room? Obviously, he and she were just a couple who were connected by the marriage alliance. They didn’t love each other, nor did they have any emotional basis. And they might not happy in the future.

“I didn’t. I was just so scared that I went to the wrong place…” Esther explained as she looked into his cold eyes.

However, Terence suddenly let go of her and said, “It doesn’t matter. No matter who you love or miss in your heart, it’s your freedom.”

His sudden change of attitude made Esther even more anxious. She did not know what was waiting for her.

She soon realized that she was thinking too much because Terence did not intend to stay here for long. After he expressionlessly said “rest early”, he turned around and walked towards the door.

Esther panicked. She grabbed his wrist to prevent him from leaving.
