MY GORGEOUS WIFE IS AN EX-CONVICT

Chapter 24

His dark eyes stared only at her. Claire who was drunk looked so delicate and alluring. ‘How many people have seen this side of her?

‘Has lewis mayer seen it before?’

A sudden wave of jealousy rose in his heart. He was jealous that lewis mayer's had dated her before. While she was dating lewis mayer's, had she ever used such a gentle tone to call out his name? How intimate were they while they were dating?

“Are you being truthful that I’m good-looking?” he murmured back. He had the urge to keep her by his side and not allow anyone else to see such an attractive side of her.

“Yup. Very much. Isaac is the most handsome man I’ve ever seen.” She smiled as her fingers playfully tapped on the tip of his nose as if he was an interesting toy.

Perhaps, she was the only one who could treat him like a toy.

Suddenly, her expression changed. Her smile faded and was replaced with sadness. Isaac, I’ll treat you very well. Please don’t leave me, okay?”

Her almond eyes looked misty.

important existence to her, and if he left, that would be a burden she could not bear.

“I never wanted to leave you. You were the one who did not want to stay by my side. Have you forgotten?” He knew that she was drunk at the moment and probably would not recall what she said now tomorrow, but he could not stop himself from conversing with her.

She cocked her head trying to ponder. “Why… Why didn’t I want to stay by isaac’s side? I want to stay by isaac's side… I so badly want to…”

Perhaps he would only get to hear such words when she was drunk.

Her fingers traveled from the tip of his nose to his lips and tapped on them. It was as if she had found a new piece of land as her face inched closer to his lips. She stuck out her tongue and lightly licked his lips once.

His body stiffened as his gaze darkened. “Do you realize what you’re doing?”

Of course, she did not know what she was doing. She merely smiled at him, looking elated as if she had just tasted something sweet.
Isaac felt his body heating up. Usually, he would never have any physical reactions when faced with women who did more intimate movements when trying to seduce him.

Yet a simple action from her had evoked a response that he could hardly control.

Unfortunately, she ignored him and lowered her head once again. Their lips came in light contact as the tip of her tongue licked over his lips again. “It’s sweet…” she slurred.

At that moment, she was like an innocent child, unlike her usual repressed self after coming out from prison.

He quickly closed his eyes as his hands unknowingly curled into fists. He was trying his best to control his urge.

“You think that I won’t do anything to you no matter what you do to me, is that it?” his gruff voice said, but he was not sure if he meant that for her or himself.

She blinked her almond eyes as if she did not understand what he said. It was followed by a look of consideration. After some time, she smiled suddenly and pressed her lips on his.

“It’s so sweet. Isaac have a taste of this…” she said and kissed him just like that.

He stiffened his body and passively received this kiss from her.

He was inevitably drowning in such sweetness.

When her lips parted from his lips, he felt a sudden loss and wanted more.

He suddenly flipped over and pressed her down below him. “It’s not enough… It’s far from enough.”

He murmured as his fingers gently caressed her face. Her alluringly drunk demeanor was like a budding rose, so beautiful and so attractive.

Her eyes shimmered like the autumn dew whenever she looked at him. Her smile when she called him isaac her hands wrapping themselves around his neck, her fresh, sweet scent filling his whole being… All these made him feel like he was being intoxicated.

“It looks like I should not have said things such as not touching a drunk woman,” he murmured. This was the first time he went back on his words, and it was all because of her.

He lowered his head and kissed her lips while tossing and turning around. It felt so nostalgic, and he was so reluctant to leave.

His physical urge that had been aroused by her needed to be appeased by her only.

It was as if his body would only react so strongly toward her.

He did not know how long they were kissing before they stopped. He found that she had already fallen asleep.

“What the…” A rare helplessness surfaced within him. This woman was playing with fire mere moments ago but had fallen asleep, leaving him hanging there.

His dark eyes stared at the person underneath him. After some time isaac sighed and pulled the covers over claire before sitting back by the side of the bed.

“You owe me, do you know that?” he mumbled as his voice dissipated in the air.

The temperature in that little room was no longer cold. Even the air felt rather warm.

When claire woke up, she saw isaac sitting by her bedside and was flabbergasted.

“Why are you here?” she stammered.

“Do you think you could get back on your own after getting drunk?” he asked her in return.

Claire suddenly recalled that she had drunk a huge amount of wine yesterday. Her memories only went as far as when she was still drinking in the private room.

“So yesterday, after sending me home, you didn’t go home?” She was perplexed. ‘He can’t have sat there the whole night,

can he?’

“Yup, I didn’t go home but took care of you the whole night instead. So, do you think that you need to thank me?”

Thank you,” she said with a little bewilderment. He was the one who wanted her to drink yesterday, but he wanted her to thank him at this moment. “By the way, will you release my uncle and the bunch?”

She was suddenly reminded of her motive for drinking wine yesterday. At that moment, she looked at him earnestly and nervously, fearful that he might reject her.

He chuckled. “I’ve asked nathan to settle it. They should be out soon.”

She heaved in relief upon hearing that.

Once Uncle and the rest have been released, then my grandmother’s illness should improve as well.

“After what they did to you and imprisoned you for so many days, aren’t you worried that they will hold a grudge against you and do worse things if they are released?” he asked.
