“Thanks, hubby.” Jessica smiled sweetly at him. “How much money is inside?”
Forrest looked at her brightly smiling face and snorted coldly. “Enough for you to squander for a while.”
“Okay, I’ll do my best to squander it. You have to work hard to earn money. I spend money very
quickly,” Jessica spoke and put the card away. “Go dry your clothes first, hubby. I still have work to do.”
The study door was closed again. Forrest looked at his clothes in the washing machine and rubbed his
throbbing head.
He originally wanted to order her to dry the clothes.
However, not only did she not dry the clothes but he even handed his bank card to her.
In the end, he had to dry the clothes by himself.
Furthermore, that woman even occupied his study.
He got more annoyed the more he thought about it.
No, he had to make up for it in bed later.
He waited and waited in bed until it was 11 p.m. Jessica finally came out of the study. She went to the
bathroom outside for a while before entering the bedroom.
“You’re not asleep yet?” Jessica’s eyes flashed with surprise when she saw him still sitting on the bed.
“How can I sleep when you’re not asleep yet? I’m a light sleeper. I’ll wake up if anyone enters the
room,” said Forrest coldly. “Jessica Snow, you’re a wife now. Can’t you have some self-awareness? If
you’re going to sleep so late every day, you can just take the other bedroom for yourself.”
“You were waiting for me?” Jessica had always been targeted by him, so she was able to automatically
catch the main points in his words.
“Who’s waiting for you? Don’t flatter yourself. I told you, I don’t want to fall asleep and then get woken
up by you.” Forrest’s tone got even colder.
“Oh, sorry. I was just talking with the head of a foreign branch. Sometimes, there’s a time difference, so
there’s nothing I can do.” Jessica lifted the blanket as she spoke and lay down on the other side of the
bed.
Forrest turned off the lights expressionlessly.
This was the first time they lay so calmly in bed without drinking ever since they broke up.
There were two times before that, but both times, they were so exhausted that they fell asleep the
moment their heads touched the pillows.
Forrest and Jessica suddenly became a little uncomfortable.
The moonlight streamed in through the floor-to-ceiling windows. The bed was wide, and the two people
slept on one side each. It was like there was a river between them.
Jessica was slightly nervous at first, but she was too tired. She was tossed around by him until late last
night and did not even rest at noon just so she could leave work early. Thus, she soon drifted off to
sleep.
However, when she was fast asleep, the man beside her suddenly moved and pressed down on her.
Her gasp of surprise was sealed by a pair of lips, and dense kisses peppered down on her.
“Forrest…” She opened her hazy eyes and saw the man’s thick hair. “Forrest, I’m really tired…”
She was really out of energy and did not want to do it today.
He was mean and indifferent to her before, but at this moment, he was passionate like a raging fire.
Had this man developed a split personality in these years?
“Stop pretending. Didn’t you marry me because you wanted this?”
Forrest did not want to hold back at all. He had endured it all night, waiting for her to come back to the
room.
He knew that his will was weak.
