Chapter 149 Unreliable at Critical Moments
James felt a bit scared when he realized Cynthia really wanted to sleep with him. He shouted helplessly, "Cynthia, I don't think I can help you. You should find someone else!"
"Why? Is it because you think I'm not paying you enough?" Cynthia asked James, looking puzzled.
"It's not about the money!" James replied in a low voice.
Although Cynthia was wonderful and had an attractive figure, James didn't want to have a random encounter with her, especially one that could lead to pregnancy. So, he turned to leave.
"If it's not about the money, then why don't you want to? James, are you impotent or something?"
Cynthia couldn't understand why James would refuse to sleep with her.
Given how poor James was, and considering how much money she was offering, plus her own good looks, there was no reason for James to refuse her!
James was stunned when he heard Cynthia's words.
As a man, the last thing he wanted to hear was someone questioning his abilities, especially from a beautiful woman.
"Of course I can! I'm perfectly healthy!" James turned and shouted at Cynthia.
"If you're healthy, then why won't you sleep with me? Am I not pretty enough for you? Are you even a man?"
Cynthia gracefully seated herself on the couch, crossing her legs in a seductive pose, and provocatively taunted James.
Hearing Cynthia's words, James hesitated for a few seconds, then walked directly towards her.
"Today, I'll show you if I'm a man or not!"
James roared, then picked Cynthia up and headed to the bedroom.
Ever since James inherited a trillion-dollar fortune, temptations around him had increased.
Whether it was someone like the sexy Pamela or the innocent Sarah, these women would come running with just one call from James.
However, James had always abstained from taking advantage of such situations because he desired his first intimate experience to be shared with someone who genuinely loved him, rather than a person driven by materialistic motives.
If James had slept with these women, he would be no different from them.
Moreover, because of Laura, James had additional reservations.
Even though Laura didn't want to admit James was her fiancé, James still wanted to pursue her because he felt that since he had promised to marry Laura, he had to be responsible for her.
But Cynthia's words had completely angered James.
Why did men want money?
To live as they please.
Moreover, Cynthia was a rare beauty, and James felt he wouldn't lose out by sleeping with her. He had just been suppressing his desires.
But Cynthia's words had ignited his anger.
Cynthia didn't know James's identity, so even if they slept together, James wouldn't have to be responsible, and he could get $400,000 in cash. It was a win-win for James.
So, James changed his mind.
He wanted Cynthia's body, and she wanted to solve her problem. They were both getting what they needed.
Afterward, they would have minimal interference in each other's lives, and James felt that he wasn't at a disadvantage.
When Cynthia realized James had picked her up, a flash of nervousness appeared in her eyes, but she quickly became resolute because she knew that only by sleeping with James could she solve all her problems.
Moments later, James carried Cynthia into the bedroom, threw her onto the bed, and started taking off his clothes.
Cynthia lay on the bed, her heart racing, her face blushing as if it could bleed.
She had never had any intimate contact with a man before, and now she was about to do something like this with a man, so she was naturally very nervous.
James looked at Cynthia's flushed face, hesitated, and then softly said, "If you regret it now, it's not too late."
"I..."
Cynthia seemed a bit nervous but stopped mid-sentence, then bit her lip and softly said, "Hurry up, I don't regret it!"
Hearing Cynthia's words, James didn't hesitate any more and leaned down to kiss her.
Seeing James about to kiss her, Cynthia quickly turned her head away and shouted with wide eyes, "What are you doing? You can't kiss me..."
"Cynthia, when doing this, of course, you have to kiss!"
James was speechless at Cynthia's words.
Ignoring her resistance, he leaned in and kissed her.
Cynthia's face showed panic, and she struggled, dodging left and right.
However, after facing a few challenges, James seized an opportunity and passionately kissed her on her enticing lips.
Cynthia's eyes widened in anger, staring at James.
It was Cynthia's first kiss and also James's first kiss.
Both of them froze.
James hesitated, then tightly hugged Cynthia's soft body and kissed her passionately.
Moments later, James's breathing became heavy, and he reached for Cynthia's back, trying to unhook her bra.
Feeling James's actions, Cynthia's body trembled, but she gritted her teeth and didn't stop him.
To avoid being forced into marriage by her parents, Cynthia was willing to do anything.
But it was James's first time unhooking a bra, so it was inevitably awkward.
After struggling for a while, James still couldn't unhook Cynthia's bra, and his forehead started to sweat from the excitement.
"How can I mess up at such a crucial moment!" James cursed inwardly.
Seeing James sweating, Cynthia asked, puzzled. "James, what's wrong?"
"Nothing."
James's voice trembled slightly. He didn't want to admit to Cynthia that he didn't know how to unhook her bra because it was too embarrassing.
