There were no secrets between them, he thought to himself. David pulled the car over after he drove through an intersection. Leaning over, he looked at Zoe quietly and asked her point blank, “Are you thinking about him?”She wasn’t about to admit to it. So, she responded swiftly, “That’s not it!”All of a sudden, she heard a soft clicking sound. The next thing she knew, he unbuckled himself and leaned close to her, seemingly trying to kiss her. The thing was, human bodies react most honestly when they react out of pure instinct. Just as his lips were about to close on hers, she raised her hands and blocked him. The simple gesture stopped him from kissing her altogether.Zoe herself was dumbfounded. It was perfectly common for couples to kiss one another, but she instinctively avoided taking that step with him. Raising her head, she felt a little unsure of herself.He was very close to her now. In fact, they were so close that they could feel each other’s breaths. Under norm

The sales assistant served them two cups of coffee, but Zoe didn’t drink a drop of it. Instead, she trained her gaze at Gabriela. Gabriela collected her thoughts and spoke, her eyes staring off into the distant past, “Back then, it was Ava who got in touch with me at the beginning. She said that Mason wanted to make a deal with me.”She raised her cup of coffee and took a sip, her lean fingers were shaking slightly.By the time she spoke again, she was smiling bitterly. “I hated him very much back then. There was no way I’d help him in any way. However, Ava made an offer I couldn’t possibly refuse. Apparently, Mason was going to give me a project that was worth billions of dollars. I could’t possibly turn down such an offer!“Then, Ava brought me to the hospital to sign the contract. That’s when I saw him. He looked so… Well, he certainly looks better now than when I first saw him. It was awful. He was just lying on the bed quietly. He couldn’t even move a finger.“Do you know wh

Mason didn’t push her away, but he didn’t keep kissing her either. Underneath the light, he stared at her gloomily. She was wet from head to toe, her clothes clung to her curvature, revealing her darling and seductive figure.Needless to say, he was turned on by her.However, he forbade himself from acting on his desires. She was still hugging him longingly when he caught her wrists and pressed on them with his chest. Then, he started to caress, fondle, and grope her.He was very rough with her.The way he was treating her now was akin to the way he treated the whores out on the street. Realizing she was getting turned on by his touches, he seized the opportunity and whispered nastily in her ear, “Are you getting turned on? Do you know what it’s like to have sex with a paraplegic? You’ll have to take the lead throughout the entire process and you’re in charge of cleaning up afterward because I simply can’t do it!“Knowing this, do you still want to do it? If you’re fine with it,

Zoe looked at him, gobsmacked. Moments later, she said in a husky voice, “We didn’t do it all the way through, Mason.”“We had sex!”Wheeling himself toward her, he said tenderly, mirroring the quieted storm outside the window, “We might not have done it all the way through, but we did have sex. That means you stand a chance of getting pregnant again.”At the next moment, he handed her the bottle of pills. Taking it with a trembling hand, she lowered her head and looked at the all-too-familiar bottle and the writings on it. Just like that, she was thrown back to the past…After a long time, she looked at him. Her voice was gentle, but firm when she said, “I’m no longer the old me who you can push around, Mason! Yeah, we had sex, but I reserve the right to make the call if I want to take the pills!“What gives you the right to force me to take the pills? Who are you to me, aside from an ex-husband and someone I had casual sex with?” With that, she threw the bottle of pills into

Mason smiled bitterly. “What else can we do?”Pulling at the back of her head, he stared at her profoundly. Both of their bodies were shivering uncontrollably. It had nothing to do with their lust. Instead, it was about their strong feelings for each other. They might’ve known each other for more than a decade, married for several years, went through several bittersweet split-ups and reconciliations, and made a couple of babies together, but they’d never bared their souls in this way ever before.His eyes were full of lust when he looked at her, but he suppressed them before leaning into her ears. “I want you to live a happy life.” His tone was similar to that of a lover as well as family.Zoe was still shivering all over. Raising her head, she looked at him. The light above shone on her, accentuating her fair, rosy cheeks. He loved looking at her when she was like this. She said to him in tears, “How am I supposed to be happy? Tell me, Mason. What makes you think I can be happy
