Chapter 96 Jessica, Are You Really Unwilling?
As soon as she finished speaking, Gabriel bent down and kissed her lips directly.
This time, he was very slow and gentle. Compared to the previous impatience, anger, and dominance, he seemed like a completely different person.
Jessica blinked, momentarily enveloped by his tenderness, almost forgetting to reject him. When she realized what was happening, she immediately reached out to push him away.
However, as soon as she extended her hand, Gabriel grabbed her wrist. His movements were equally gentle. Now he was like a proper gentleman, leaving no room for error.
They repeated these actions back and forth a few times, and she eventually gave in.
In the end, all she could do was grit her teeth and prevent him from entering her body.
Of course, Gabriel knew this too. He smiled, his mesmerizing eyes particularly alluring in the dark night.
He wasn't angry or impatient, still patiently and gently kissing her, as if waiting for Jessica to surrender willingly.
Suddenly, Gabriel lowered his head, leaning close to Jessica's ear, gently blowing, and said with a charming smile, "Jessica, are you so eager that you even undid my clothes?"
His voice and his breath were already very tempting.
Upon hearing this, Jessica couldn't help but tremble all over, almost losing control of herself.
Upon hearing that she had undone his clothes, Jessica immediately lowered her head.
Only then did she realize that Gabriel's bathrobe had indeed come undone at some point.
As the bathrobe loosened, revealing his well-defined and muscular chest, Jessica blushed immediately.
The tempting tan skin, coupled with his eight-pack abs and sexy V-line.
Jessica's face turned as red as a cooked shrimp.
Although they hadn't been together many times, he always knew how to stir her emotions and make her shy and affectionate.
Gathering her thoughts, Jessica immediately explained, "I didn't do that. It was during our struggle that your bathrobe accidentally came undone, not because of me."
"Who was struggling?" Gabriel's eyes looked at her with a hint of amusement.
"I struggled, yes, but it was because of you..."
While Jessica was speaking, Gabriel seized the opportunity and once again sealed her lips with a kiss.
This time, he got his wish.
Jessica regretted it so much that she wanted to bite herself to death.
It must be said that tonight, Gabriel was unbelievably gentle. All his intimate actions toward Jessica were gentle, always considering her feelings.
Jessica admitted that she had succumbed.
She was lost in his kiss, lost in his deadly tenderness.
Despite her anger toward him these days, despite her silent treatment and refusal to sleep with him, no matter how many reasons she had, one thing couldn't be changed she still loved him, and she loved him deeply.
A love that spanned a decade, encompassing her entire youth, was something she couldn't forget completely!
Many times, she even wondered if there was truly a forgetfulness potion in the world. She would drink it to make her forget him and forget this decade-long unrequited love.
Even though her heart was soft, Jessica's mind remained clear at a critical point.
As his hand continued to move upwards, Jessica shivered and immediately pushed Gabriel away.
She looked up with her beautiful eyes, saying clearly, "Have you thought this through? Do you want me at this moment, or just my body?"
The former was related to love; the latter was perhaps just a momentary impulse or desire.
"Do you have to make such a clear distinction?" Gabriel retorted.
Jessica nodded. "This is important to me, I must make it clear."
"But to me, they are the same."
Jessica's eyes gradually dimmed.
Perhaps she never held any hope from the beginning, so when she heard it, she didn't feel pain.
"Thank you for such an honest answer."
As Gabriel's hand moved upward, Jessica did not resist.
She stared at the ceiling with a faint gaze.
Although the atmosphere in the room was extremely erotic, she felt no warmth, but only despair.
Her eyes were so cold, so icy, without a hint of warmth, that when Gabriel looked at her, he almost thought he was mistaken.
In the past, she would have been extremely shy at this moment, closing her eyes in embarrassment, feeling weak and powerless as he explored her body.
But now, her eyes were too cold.
Gabriel felt like he had been doused with a bucket of cold water from head to toe because of her numbness, which instantly made him sober.
When he looked up again, there was no heat or impulse in his eyes. He felt equally bereft.
"Are you really unwilling to do it like this?" he said at Jessica with heavy voice.
"Yes, I am unwilling."
This time, Jessica answered directly and firmly.
Gabriel's eyes grew colder, as sharp as ice picks.
He still had his arms propped up on the bed, looking down at Jessica. The room fell into an extreme silence, with only the sound of wind and rain outside.
After a long time, he smirked disdainfully. "Fine, I'm not the kind of man who would force you to do it. Since you're not willing, it's meaningless for me to force you into a sexual relationship with me.
"Very well, you got what you wanted!"
With that, he got up and walked toward the door.
Shortly after, Jessica heard the loud sound of the door slamming.
He left directly, leaving in a fit of anger.
The room grew even quieter after he left.
Jessica hugged the blanket, trying hard to keep her eyes closed, telling herself not to overthink and forcing herself to fall asleep quickly.
As he walked out of the room and down the stairs, Gabriel realized a problem.
He was only wearing a bathrobe, barefoot, without even his shoes on.
In the past, no matter how angry he was, he had never been so out of control. He had truly been confused by Jessica just now, which led him to storm out.
In the living room on the first floor, Gabriel lit a cigarette.
Although he was smoking, he wasn't really focused on it. It wasn't until the spark burned his fingers that he reacted, taking only one puff of the cigarette.
Quickly flicking off the ash, Gabriel took a deep drag of the cigarette, then pulled it out of his mouth and extinguished it directly.
He was feeling restless now, not even in the mood to smoke.
Outside the window, thunder rumbled and lightning flashed, the torrential rain showing no signs of ceasing.
Thinking of how she was always afraid of lightning and heavy rain, Gabriel's heart softened once again.
Suddenly feeling regret and remorse, he realized he shouldn't have come out like this.
With such heavy rain and in a large, dark and empty room, he didn't know if she would be scared and crying.
