All Chapters of The Prison Bride: Chapter 271 - Chapter 280

Jessie looked Marie straight in the eye and asked, “So, he’s the one you chose after weighing all your options?”“My parents told me he’s the best match for the Judd family. You only know Jack as a person, but you don’t understand what the Gerome family is like. As long as he carries the Gerome name and bloodline, he can’t choose who he loves. Of course, after the marriage, if he still wants to keep seeing you, that’s acceptable too," Marie said nonchalantly.Jessie realized then that Marie didn’t actually love Jack at all. Otherwise, how could she say something like that?Although it might sound naive to say love is sacred, what Marie said was even more absurd.“I don’t know exactly what the Gerome family is like, but I’m sure there are plenty of powerful families just like them.” Jessie frowned.Marie laughed. She studied Jessie’s expression and said with a disdainful tone, “There are plenty of wealthy men, yes. But one who looks like him? Almost none. The Judd family doesn’t ju

Jessie followed Jack inside.The cats trailed behind them and kept meowing."Marie is actually a lot more rational than we thought. She came here today to make a point that she and you belong to the same class. She can also walk freely into your home." Jessie approached Jack and smiled mischievously."Have you ever thought about living somewhere more, say, ordinary?" she asked. Truth be told, she didn't like this place much.It was far from the city, and eating out was inconvenient.Most of all, it felt too cold and lifeless."If we lived somewhere ordinary, she'd have an easier time coming and going," Jack replied.When he first bought this house, Jessica had been here once or twice and knew the passcode.He had forgotten about it. That's how Marie managed to sneak in today."It's not the same. A rich girl like her would never get into an average neighborhood without a key. High-tech security can be breached without a trace, but physical locks require brute force, and that's

Even so, Jack found every bit of it sweet.When he returned to his room, Jessie was already on the bed. She sat with the blanket pulled up over her legs.He couldn't help but smile. After closing the door behind him, he turned to look at her. He was still smiling."Here's your phone. It's late, so I didn't bother bringing your tablet. You should probably get some sleep.""Yeah, I'm really tired," Jessie replied. Her heart was racing.Jack walked over and handed her the phone.He lingered there for a moment and cleared his throat. "Guess I should sleep too.""Okay," Jessie said.They both sounded like nervous teenagers.Jessie had always thought Jack would be confident about things like this, but now she realized he was just as inexperienced as she was.When he finally got into bed, he didn't even dare to touch her.Just as Jessie settled under the covers, he suddenly recalled that his smart home system's AI assistant was named Jess.Every night, he had to call out that name

Jack couldn't take it anymore. He pulled Jessie into his arms and pressed her beneath him.Her eyes widened instantly.Looking up at Jack, whose breathing had grown heavier, her heart thudded like a drum. "You're the one who told me to touch you.""I meant through the shirt–" Jack's voice was hoarse as he leaned close to her ear. "Don't you have that meeting at the office later?"Jessie knew exactly what he was thinking. Her heart raced, and her mind went completely blank."Forget it, I'll just hold you for a bit," he said.A cold shower would fix it anyway.Jessie reached up and gently tugged at his hair. "Does it hurt?""Not really," Jack murmured while relaxing under her touch. Her fingers in his hair made something inside him soften completely."Then just calm down. Don't think about doing anything. I'm not ready yet."She really wasn't. The idea of being fully vulnerable with him and doing that kind of thing was something she hadn't even dared to picture.Jack didn't wa

Jack cleared his throat. "I don't think I'm that kind of guy.""Don't start acting cocky now. You can be arrogant about anything else, but not about this. Things aren't like they used to be. If you're not good in bed, women will think twice about staying. People say if things don't work in bed, nothing else in the relationship will either." Ronny spoke like a seasoned expert.Jack pulled him over to sit at the kitchen island. "Then why don't you teach me a few things?"All three of them were completely inexperienced, but Ronny talked like a pro. It almost sounded like he was giving a lesson on female anatomy.Jack and Harry were forced to sit through it.When it was over, Harry couldn't help but ask, "You're a virgin too. You sound like you know a lot, but can any of that actually work?""If you don't believe me, we can find someone experienced to confirm it," Ronny said proudly. He felt that he already did his research last night.Other guys had learned from painful experiences
