Nydia was stunned, looking at him in astonishment.
Her gaze lingered on his face for a moment before quickly shifting away, pausing again before returning to his face.
“Are you serious?” she couldn’t help but gulp.
The wicked smile on his lips gave his features a strange beauty, with less sharpness than usual and a temptation that was irresistible.
With the corners of his eyes raised and the corners of his mouth upturned, his slightly red lips were just right, and his black hair contrasted with his black eyes like a beautiful but dangerous spectacle.
Jesse’s fingers lightly touched her cheek, his tone playful and mellow, “You provoked me three or four times, did you think I would let you go?”
“…” She was doomed tonight!
But she really wanted to ask: Aren’t you going to divorce me? Why are you still so obsessed with my body?
Before the divorce, she wanted to eat her fill of meat, so she wouldn’t want to eat it for a long time afterward?
“So you’re saying that you’re lying like a king, and I’m supposed to serve you?”
“Otherwise? I’d like to serve you, but my hands won’t allow it.”
“…” Go to hell!
But there was no atmosphere at all now, and she really couldn’t feel anything.
Jesse got out of bed directly, and when Nydia was confused, he came back holding a white lace nightgown.
“Wear this.”
Nydia glanced at him and said irritably, “Next time someone asks you about your clothes, don’t just say that you bought millions worth of dresses for your wife, you also bought her a lot of sexy nightgowns!”
“When they ask you, ‘It looks like you and your wife have a good relationship,’ and you answer, ‘No, I just think she looks good in them.'”
Her sarcasm fell on Jesse’s ears, but he nodded in satisfaction.
“I’ll answer like that next time.”
“…” Next time my ass! We’ll already be divorced soon!
In the end, she still changed into the nightgown, letting her hair fall loose, with her shoulders subtly exposed, and the atmosphere immediately became apparent.
Jesse’s eyes fell on her body, but lingered for a moment on her wrist and ankle before scanning her neck.
Not knowing what he was thinking, Nydia didn’t understand why he didn’t seem so satisfied from his expression. But didn’t he pick out the nightgown himself?
He went to the closet again.
“Put this on.” He put a furry bracelet on Nydia’s right wrist.
Before Nydia could figure out what it was for, Jesse forcibly pulled her closer, and the two of them were suddenly very close.
“Kiss me!” His voice was commanding.
He doesn’t take the initiative, he wants Nydia to take the initiative, but he still controls the pace.
She knows he’s always been a controlling person, likes to have everything in his hands, and he can’t stand being disabled, he hates any loss of control.
The soft fabric can’t block anything, instead it brings a slight friction.
Originally, she felt like there was no atmosphere, but at the moment he kissed her, she was enveloped in a cloud, enjoying the sweet sugar, with the sticky and pulling sensation unique to sugar.
And then she finally understood why Jesse wanted her to wear the furry bracelet.
He has changed!
He has ideas!
He’s no longer the man whose ears turn rosy when teased!
However, his ears are still rosy, and his handsome, sinister face is shattered.
She saw panic on his face, like the satisfaction and worry of being caught after stealing something.
Even tears glittered in the corners of his eyes.
“Jesse,” she called softly, kissing his eyes unconsciously, kissing away his tears. The salty taste spread in her mouth, making her feel pity for him.
He bit his lip and curled up in her arms like a baby.
He was so big, but now he looked so small, making her feel pity.
“Go to sleep, babe, good night,” she caressed his black hair and coaxed him to sleep.
In the darkness, Jesse turned over and hugged Nydia.
He regretted it.
He couldn’t bear to divorce her or let her go.
Even if she had a purpose for these three months, he still couldn’t bear to let her go.
Just the thought of her doing the same thing to other men made him lose control of his emotions instantly. He couldn’t even think about it, let alone see her standing with another man.
No!
He wouldn’t allow it!
Unconsciously tightening his arms, he held Nydia in an imprisoned posture!
Nydia was awakened, but she didn’t move and quietly leaned against him.
At 7:30 in the morning, Jesse woke up.
He used the remote control to pull back the first layer of curtains, and the morning light shone through the curtains.
He saw Nydia’s beautiful sleeping face.
The strap of her nightdress slipped down to her arm, revealing her fair skin. For a man in the morning, seeing this scene is undoubtedly a very torturous thing.
He glanced at his injured right hand and decided that this time he wouldn’t let Barclay off easy. Even if he didn’t kill him, he would make sure Barclay got a taste of his own medicine. As he looked more and more agitated, he finally got up from bed.
When Nydia woke up, she didn’t see anyone in bed and waited for a while before seeing him coming out of the bathroom.
“Good morning,” she said.
“It’s not morning anymore, get up!” Jesse replied impatiently.
Nydia was confused by his sour face. She didn’t do anything wrong. “Hey, why are you so angry?” she asked, as she got up and brushed her hair.
Jesse’s expression turned even darker as he walked out the door, responding with a louder than usual slamming sound.
“…” He was such a jerk!
It was Saturday, and the two children didn’t have to go to school. “I am going to accompany daddy to see the doctor today. Are you going to come with us or stay at home?” Nydia asked.
Molly’s first reaction was to follow them, but Tavish spoke first. “Mommy, we’re not going. We’ll stay at home. There’s a brain challenge today, and we can’t go out.”
“Okay,” Nydia didn’t force them.
After breakfast, she and Jesse went to the hospital to see a psychiatrist. Although the process was better suited for individual testing, Jesse’s case was special, and Nydia’s presence during the test could help him adjust his emotions better in the future.
“His emotions have stabilized a lot lately,” the doctor looked at the report with some relief. “Is he taking his medication regularly?”
“Yes,” Jesse lied without changing his expression. He didn’t take it regularly, just occasionally.
Psychiatric medications often come with significant side effects, and Nydia didn’t recommend taking them regularly either, so she didn’t expose him.
“Try not to stimulate his emotions. If he can maintain this state for two or three years, the possibility of a full recovery is very high.”
Two or three years? Nydia felt like the sky was about to turn dark. This couldn’t be true!
“What if he’s stimulated again?” she asked weakly.
“It may be worse than before, so be extra careful!”
The doctor’s words chilled Nydia’s heart.
