Married to a Millionaire

Chapter 36

Before getting in the hot spring, one must shower first. There are special bathrooms by the pools for this purpose. Jennie carefully washed herself as Lisa had instructed her, then put on her swimsuit and wrapped herself in a bathrobe. She tiptoed barefoot to the bathroom door and peeked outside. The pool was empty, with the sound of water coming from the neighboring bathroom where Lisa was still washing up.

Jennie breathed a quiet sigh of relief and hurried to the poolside. She glanced back again before untying her bathrobe and laying it on a lounge chair, feeling like a thief as she slipped into the water. She had no mind to appreciate the difference between the hot spring and an ordinary hot bath; her sole focus was making her way to the small central pool.

Just then Lisa emerged from the bathroom, and happened to glimpse his fiancée's back as she clambered over the edge of the small pool. The motion was childlike as she braced herself with both hands on the ledge, one leg lifted high. But she was no child - her shapely legs gleamed smooth and fair.

Before Lisa could look his fill, Jennie finally succeeded in climbing inside. She leaned back against the pool wall and sank her shoulders into the hot spring, feeling safely hidden from view. But when she turned back around, she saw a tall figure wearing only black swim briefs had appeared at the pool's edge - it was Lisa. Jennie whipped back around, her heartbeat racing wildly.

On her side all was silent, but soon she heard the sound of Lisa slipping into the water, drawing nearer.

Jennie sank a little lower in the water, glancing down to see her soaked swimsuit obediently clinging to her body, concealing nothing of her curves.

She regretted this already.

"How's the water feel?" Lisa stopped behind Jennie, eyeing the flushed nape of his fiancée's neck. He turned his back to give her some privacy as he asked over his shoulder.

Jennie gave a soft murmur in response.

Lisa's voice was calm. "Good then. Soak for fifteen minutes, then take a break."

With that said, he swam away, not wanting to put too much pressure on her.

Jennie closed her eyes, and it was some time before she calmed down completely.

"Jennie, time's up." Hot springs weren't meant for lengthy soaking. Lisa leaned against the pool's edge and called out to Jennie.

She had no way to hide now, so Jennie gritted her teeth and climbed out of the small pool. She didn't dare glance Lisa's way, trying to pretend that if she didn't look at him, he wouldn't be able to look at her.

When climbing out of the small pool, Jennie had aimed for a spot far from Lisa, but as she neared the edge, she couldn't help but lift her eyes - and found Lisa standing right in front of her! Catching sight of him, Jennie immediately dropped her head, but not before getting an eyeful, and now she couldn't banish the image of Lisa's long, muscular legs from her mind.

Her face flushed crimson.

"Let me help you out," Lisa bent down and extended a hand to her.

Jennie didn't dare look below his knees, just shut her eyes and placed her hand in his.

Lisa effortlessly hoisted her from the pool with the ease of lifting a chick.

"I'll head back to my room first," Jennie said as she twisted free of his grasp, still not meeting his eyes. She didn't want to soak anymore.

Lisa gave a helpless laugh. "That was too short. It won't have any effect."

But Jennie insisted.

"Afraid of me?" Seeing her rosy cheeks, Lisa's gaze darkened.
