President's Substitute Wife novel Chapter 257

“No.” I lay there and felt familiar.

I knew if I compromise a little at this time.

What would happen next would be unthinkable.

“Give me some time. I’ll divorce Cindy. We will never be separated again.”

Sean hugged me tightly.

His tone was familiar. It was a pity that stupid I would never come back.

“President Jessop, I’m Becky.”

I said word by word.

I told myself over and over that I couldn’t do it!

I could never compromise.

Once I was absurdly between Molly and Sean.

Now I didn’t want to go back to that ridiculous past.

Sean didn’t seem to understand me. He held me and said to me, “it doesn’t matter who you are. I know you are you. That’s enough.”

I was I?

Sean, you were wrong.

I was not me for a long time.

But I didn’t say it. I was held by him. Our strength was very different.

I knew I couldn’t resist if he wanted to.

So I lay there, “President Jessop, if you want to rape me, I can’t resist. But I will call the police and accuse you of rape.”

Sean had been teasing me.

He kept my body in a state where it could start at any time.

But when I said that, he stopped and looked at me.

It was almost six o’clock.

It was almost dawn.

A little light came in through the second floor window, and I could see Sean’s face.

His features were all stagnant. His eyes were black. He seemed to be enveloped in a thick sadness.

He looked at me.

I looked at him, too. My expression was only plain or stubborn.

I was betting.

I was betting on his pride as a man.

We stood against each other. Sean raised his arm and put his big palm on my face and moved.

His movements were light.

He seemed to be touching the most precious thing in the world.

When his hand passed my eyelashes, my eyelashes trembled a little but I didn’t close my eyes.

His hands caressed my face and every feature. At last he raised his hand.

He smiled bitterly. “It’s OK. I can wait. As long as you don’t belong to others, I can wait.”

“What are you waiting for?”

“I’m waiting for you to forgive me and believe me. I can get you back.”

Sean got up and went to the bathroom.

Then I heard the sound of the shower opening.

I sat in bed and froze for a long time. I couldn’t even see the mood in my heart.

Was I disappointed or depressed?

I couldn’t think.

I had made up my mind. Since he didn’t touch me, wasn’t it the best?

I got up and changed before he came out.

I made the bed and went downstairs.

When I was sitting in front of the computer, I found that Ming had sent me messages yesterday.

It said, “I’m going to have an operation today. I won’t go to your place at noon. Remember to have lunch.”

What a coincidence.

Ming used to come, but he didn’t come today.

If Ming had come yesterday, what would have happened?

I was not sure.

But Ming was the best way to get rid of Sean.

I took a look at my watch. I was afraid Ming was still sleeping and decided to send him a message in the morning.

When I turned on the computer and just turned on the software, Sean came downstairs.

He still wore his previous clothes, but he didn’t wear a tie, and his shirt was simply put on his body. He only wore three or four buttons and didn’t put them into his belt.

His neckline was wide open and showed strong pectoral lines.

His hair was not dry. Water dripped down his short hair on his shirt.

The emotion I was just stirred up may not have been completely suppressed. Now I thought he had unlimited temptation.

I couldn’t help swallowing.

This tiny movement was seen by him. He looked at me and his black eyes smiled.

He came to me and picked up his suit and said, “I’ll go back and change. I’ll come back later.”

“No, President Jessop.” I quickly stood up, “President Jessop, I promise you I won’t stay up late. Please don’t come.”

Sean hung the suit on his right forearm. He stood at the door and looked at me and there was a smile in his eyes. “What you say doesn’t count.”

With that, he opened the door and left.

I sat in front of the computer and was not in the mood to work.

I was flustered at the thought that Sean would come back later.

I could dodge once, but I couldn’t dodge every time.

I had no choice but to call Ming.

I told him everything from yesterday to today.

After listening, he was silent for a while and then said, “I see. I have a way of persuading him.”

“Really?”

I heard Ming saying that, and I was happy.

“Yes.” His tone was relaxed. “I’m glad you told me about it. You just need to cooperate with me.”

“How can I cooperate with you?”

His words made me a little anxious.

“You’ll know by noon.” Ming paused and said, “I’m sorry. I’m going to have a meeting. I’ll hang up first.”

“OK.”

“OK, wait for me at noon.”

Ming’s voice was still warm and gentle.

I looked at my cell phone in my hand and I was inexplicably anxious.

I felt like Ming was going to say something big to Sean today.

I fell asleep at noon yesterday, so I was hungry.

I went out and bought breakfast nearby. I came back and had breakfast and a cup of coffee.

As soon as I got to work, Sean came back.

To my surprise, he didn’t wear a suit today but a pair of dark jeans and white shirt.

There was no gel on his hair.

He looked totally different from usual.

He seemed to have an affinity.

Sean looked at me and smiled, “I’m back.”

“...”

This sentence made my heart a little sour.

Sean used to say that when he went home. When I heard it again, I had a feeling of crossing time and space.

I opened my mouth a little and didn’t respond to him at last.

I continued to look at the screen and work.

Sean didn’t get angry but walked up to me and said, “you broke my coffee cup last time. You should compensate me for a cup, right?”

I looked up and froze. I immediately took out my cell phone, “yes, President Jessop, you’re right. I’ll buy the same cup for president Jessop now.”
