Chapter 427 What Exactly Is Our Relationship Now? (1)
James thought about the hurtful things he had said before, how he had belittled her to the ground, and now he felt incredibly guilty.
He gripped the steering wheel tightly, not driving the car, but sitting in silence, his heart aching.
Suddenly, he leaned over, pulled her into his arms, and gently stroked her hair over and over, whispering, "Jessica, I'm sorry, I'm sorry."
"You have nothing to be sorry for."
Jessica trembled in his arms, sobbing, "I'm the one who wanted the divorce, and now I've troubled you with my father's situation. It's me who wants too much. I can't completely see you as my sugar daddy, and I can't force myself to flatter you without dignity like those other women. But James, I don't like being wronged by you. When you misunderstand me, it really hurts." Listening to Jessica's words, all the pent-up frustration in James dissipated.
His heart ached, and suddenly, he cupped her face and kissed her hard on the lips, silencing her.
He felt that if she continued talking, his heart would break.
Jessica was flustered by the sudden kiss, struggling lightly but unable to resist.
It wasn't until her lips felt slightly numb that she let out a small whimper.
When James let her go, both of their breaths were unsteady.
Especially Jessica, whose clear eyes were now misty, looking particularly alluring.
The temperature in the car gradually rose, and James's gaze grew more intense, as if he wanted to devour this version of Jessica right then and there.
Jessica saw James's Adam's apple move and his predatory gaze, and immediately realized what he wanted to do.
Sure enough, James's voice was low and hoarse as he quickly started the car, saying, "Let's go home."
Jessica's heart pounded, afraid he would treat her like he did yesterday.
After all, the baby in her belly couldn't be harmed.
And now, she was like a frightened bird, unable to grasp James's attitude and temper.
She didn't dare to reveal her pregnancy rashly, but she had to find a way to stop him from touching her so impulsively.
At that moment, James's hand reached over, holding her small hand in his palm, and he asked in a deep voice, "What are you thinking about?"
Jessica carefully glanced at his expression and quietly asked, "What exactly is our relationship now? What do we count as?"
James paused slightly and said, "What do you think?"
"I don't know."
Jessica thought for a moment and said, "If you're my sugar daddy, then I'll accept however you want to treat me."
James frowned slightly and said coldly, "If I wanted to be a sugar daddy, I don't know how many people would be willing to be supported by me. Do I need to support a woman like you who only knows how to anger me?"
Jessica blushed and said awkwardly, "Since you're not my sugar daddy, can you respect me a little? After all, we're divorced now, and doing that kind of thing isn't proper at all."
She spoke pitifully, her innocent look making it hard for James to refuse.
Jessica was doing everything she could for the baby in her belly!
She pouted and said aggrievedly, "Every time you do that to me, I feel like you're using me as a tool to vent. I..."
"Alright, I get it."
James tightened his grip on the steering wheel and said, "I don't need to force a woman! I'll wait until you're willing."
