Chapter 179
Not even trying to hold herself back, Sage threw up even more on Jace, as if he was a dumpster.
At that moment, Jace only had one thought, ‘Why did I bring a drunkard with me?’
Yet, he was the one who took her away and carried her into the car, who else could he blame?
It was his decision so he had to put up with the consequences
However, this whole fiasco was too much for someone who was obsessed with cleanliness.
Holding back the urge to kick her out of the car, Jace said to Zayne, “Find us a nearby hotel.”
Heeding his order, Zayne made a reservation at a five-star hotel and even booked them a room with a king-sized suite. Inwardly, Zayne was over the moon that things were about to get better for Jace and Sage.
When he closed the door behind him – leaving Jace and Sage in the hotel suite – Zayne thought to himself, ‘The day has finally come!’
Compared to Zayne who was overjoyed, Jace, on the other hand, carried Sage into the bathroom, took off his dirty clothes, and quickly took a shower.
He suddenly noticed that Sage looked as if she could not stand her dirty clothes and she started unbuttoning her blouse. The upper part of her blouse was unbuttoned, revealing a part of her fair skin. Because of the hot steam in the bathroom, her fair skin carried hints of red and for some reason, Jace thought that Sage looked especially alluring.
There was a flicker in his eyes.
He did not have anything in his mind when he carried her into the suite, but right now… he would be lying if he said that he did not want to do anything to her.
“It’s too hot.”
With all the alcohol that she had drunk, Sage’s body slowly heated up. She thought that she was back in her own place. She wanted to take off her blouse but for some reason, she could not seem to finish unbuttoning it and got irritated.
Just then, someone started unbuttoning the blouse for her.
Sage patiently waited for her blouse to be unbuttoned.
They had beenmarried for three years and this was the first time that Jace was helping Sage remove her clothes.
She was fairer than he imagined and her body figure was almost perfect to his taste. Every button that he unbuttoned was like a challenge to Jace.
Pressing his lips tightly together as he tried to repress his urge, Jace turned on the showerhead and tested the water for the right temperature before helping Sage to shower
Even though the both of them were divorced, Sage had once been his wife and there was nothing wrong with helping in the shower. However, Jace did not have any experience in showering a lady. He did not know where to start nor where to put his hands.
Her skin felt especially soft and tender undemeath his rough fingers. He was worried that his calloused hand would hurt her skin.
Sage, on the other hand, was not used to such dilly-dallying. She felt as if someone was tickling her.
She struggled to open her eyes under the water and steam. After a few attempts, her eyes finally met with Jace’s.
Staring right into his eyes, Sage blinked and she let out a soft gasp.
She thought that had reached a tipping point in her drunkenness to envision a Jace standing with her in the shower.
Or perhaps it was the season of spring and even her dreams were becoming a little seductive.
