Contract Marriage: My Sweet Bossy Wife novel Chapter 6

Jessica turned over agilely and avoided Rocco perfectly, staring seductively at the corpulent Rocco.

"Ouch!"

Rocco hit his head against the arm of the sofa and screamed in pain, but soon, his attention was attracted by Jessica’s beautiful face.

"How come you woke up all of a sudden, my baby? Stop hiding from me. I’m not a bad guy."

"It wouldn’t be funny if I stayed unconscious. Now that I’ve come, I want something new and exciting," Jessica teased as she looked at Rocco seductively.

Rocco reached out to take off the half mask on Jessica’s face. He couldn’t wait to see the pretty face behind it.

"What… What did you do to me?! I feel weak now."

Suddenly, Rocco ached all over and was too weak to lift his arm. He became even more agitated as he could see Jessica but never touch her.

"Do you like honey, sir?"

Jessica took out a sealed little bottle from her sleeve and waved it at Rocco.

"Of course! I love it!"

Drooling over Jessica’s beauty, Rocco couldn’t care less about his condition, even if he got afraid for a few seconds.

After all, nothing beat a good sex.

"A kind of animal adores the scent of this type of honey, but that animal doesn’t usually show up in urban areas. I’ll show you that today!"

Jessica opened the lid and poured the honey in the little bottle all over Rocco.

"What… What are you doing?"

Even if Rocco was so eager to have sex with Jessica now, he became suspicious because he found the look on her face and what she said weird.

"You’ll see it in a minute."

Jessica came up to the window and opened it wide. In an instant, countless bees swarmed into the room and about Rocco.

"Help!"

"Get away from me!"

"…"

Bang!

Jessica slammed the door shut while the whole corridor was filled with Rocco’s painful scream.

…

Half an hour later…

"Hey! Watch your way!"

Aminah went to the top floor to see what had happened, but someone bumped into her and she felt light-headed, so she yelled at him.

"How dare you set me up, bitch! You’ll pay for this!"

Finally, Rocco rid himself of those bees, panic-stricken. He didn’t expect to bump into Aminah in the corridor, so he pointed his fat finger at her and cursed.

Aminah, however, was surprised to see the messy Rocco and plunged in thought. When she came to her senses, Rocco was nowhere to be seen.

Aminah couldn’t figure it out. Shouldn’t Rocco be…

A moment later, she took the elevator to the top floor and pushed open the door of the presidential suite.

"Why are you here, Aminah?"

Jessica was lolling back in the sofa not far away from her with a glass of fresh juice in her hand.

She had been waiting for Aminah in the suite for a long time.

Aminah looked at Jessica in astonishment and her heart missed a beat. Could she have known everything?

That couldn’t be happening, because Jessica drank that glass of wine in front of her.

Then what had gone wrong?

"You must have played some trick, Jessica. I don’t think you could have got away with it without anything."

Aminah scowled at Jessica and clenched her fists.

"Aminah, play some new tricks when you set people up next time. You really let me down this time," sneered Jessica.

Since only Aminah and Jessica were in the room, there was no need for her to play the docile daughter.

"Let’s see how long you can last. Do you think you can get away with it?"

Aminah didn’t bother to pretend anymore and glared at Jessica on the sofa, clapping her hands.

"Guys, take her to Rocco’s house now!"

"Yes, madam."

Several men in black rushed into the room and surrounded Jessica.

"I don’t think you can beat so many well-trained bodyguards alone, can you?"

Aminah wouldn’t allow Jessica to get out of this room today.

Meanwhile, Jessica stared coldly at Aminah. She wasn’t that weak and vulnerable Jessica anymore. Since she chose to wait here, she must have thought of everything, and these bodyguards weren’t even a problem for her.

However, Jessica wasn’t physically stronger than them, so she had to try a more subtle approach.

The head of the bodyguards rushed towards her and reached out to grab her neck, but at that moment, she suddenly gripped his wrist and pierced a silver needle through his skin discreetly.

"Ah! No!"

The big bodyguard rolled on the floor in pain before he could react.

The rest of the bodyguards swarmed over to Jessica at this point, but before they approached her, they were kicked away and hit the wall hard.

"Why are you here?!" Jessica exclaimed as she caught a glimpse of the tall figure bursting into view.

"It would be a pity if I missed the great show," Lorenzo said in a deep and mellow voice as he cast a faint look at her.

"Get up! A bunch of losers!" Aminah snarled. A moment ago, she was so sure that Jessica was doomed today, but someone broke in and pulled the rug out from under her!

Who was that man on earth?

Tall and big, he was wearing a pale gray suit. He had a handsome face, yet his movements were quick, agile and deadly.

Aminah had mingled with high society for years and met countless successful and powerful people, but she hadn’t seen this man before.

Suddenly, she remembered that according to Bianca, Jessica had secretly kept a high-end gigolo. Could he be that man?

"He must be the high-end gigolo you’ve been playing around with, right?"

"…"

Jessica’s lips twitched and she was lost for words.

"Did you tell her that?"

Lorenzo compressed his lips, raised his brows slightly and turned to Jessica.

"Well… I didn’t…"

Jessica stared awkwardly at Lorenzo and shook her head immediately.

One of the bodyguards intended to sneak up on Lorenzo, but Lorenzo broke his arm and left him screaming in pain.

"Would you guys come at me together?" Lorenzo looked down at the rest of the bodyguards with a sneer.

"Safety first. Run!"

Someone peed on himself and waved his hand, and the next moment, all the bodyguards rushed out of the room awkwardly.

"Losers! A bunch of losers!"

Aminah grabbed a glass and flung it at those bodyguards.

It was so humiliating for those well-trained bodyguards to be defeated by a weak woman and a gigolo!

"Game is over. Do you want spend the night here?"

Lorenzo threw a look at Jessica.

"…"

Jessica didn’t know what to say, replying at once, "I see."

"Those dirty tricks will only make you look like a fool. Stop it," Lorenzo scoffed as he walked by Aminah.

Simmering with rage, Aminah kicked hard on the door because there was nothing else she could do to vent her anger.

…

Jessica got into the car with Lorenzo and watched his every move quietly. He was so elegant and refined, and it was hard to imagine that this was the man who had taken down so many bodyguards so quickly just now.

"What if I hadn’t arrived in time? Have you ever thought what would have happened?"

Lorenzo shot a glance at Jessica in the passenger seat silently.

"I grew up alone, and I can protect myself," Jessica replied in a carefree manner.

Lorenzo knew everything about Jessica’s past. She was expelled to the outland at such a young age, and she wouldn’t have grown into a woman she was today if she hadn’t had the ability to protect herself.

Lorenzo still remembered what had happened in the waiting hall.

"It’d be better for a pretty girl to put her attention on something other than fighting."

"I’ve always been independent, and I don’t want to live off anyone, but I appreciate what you’ve done for me just now."

"And that’s all?"

Lorenzo raised his brows and turned to Jessica, who looked confident.

"Of course. What else do you expect?" Jessica asked in surprise.

"Show me how much you appreciate it, in women’s own way. Don’t pretend you don’t get me."

Lorenzo’s gaze shifted from her nine-tailed fox half mask down to her lips, a smirk spreading across his face.
