Girl Get Rid Of That Jerk (Williams and Shawn) novel Chapter 156

Allison flashed a warm smile. "Thanks a lot, you've really gone above and beyond. Here's a little something to help with that camera you've been eyeing."

"Oh, it's me who should be thanking you guys. You're like living angels, really. Thank you, thank you!" the man said, bowing over and over. "May your love last forever!"

"Thanks."

After leaving the inn, they wandered through the nearby market. Allison picked up a bunch of handmade trinkets to take home for Sabrina, Olivia, and Joy.

...

Late at night, snowflakes drifted down, wrapping the world in a peaceful silence.

The couple stood by the window.

Joshua's kisses fell like a gentle rain, each one more passionate than the last. Allison felt dizzy, swept away by his embrace.

Inside the room, the heater's warmth fogged up the floor-to-ceiling windows, leaving behind the faint outlines of Allison's hands.

...

Afterwards, Allison felt pleasantly worn out, her body relaxed and content.

"Thank you, Joshua."

Joshua lifted her off her feet, heading for the bathroom. "Thank me for what?"

Allison bit her lip softly. "For always being there for me, loving me like no one else, and for this amazing love we have."

Whenever it came to Lillian and Emily, he was always on her side, no questions asked.

Allison's words were heartfelt, with a touch of sentimentality. "Joshua, you know, you're nothing like Shawn."

Joshua didn't mind her mentioning Shawn. Instead, he asked gently, "How so?"

As he spoke, he'd already carried her into the bathroom.

The bathroom was cozy, and the ceramic tub was warm even in winter. Joshua gently placed her in the tub and turned on the hot water.

Allison lounged back against the edge. "To be honest, I truly feel you're just different from Shawn. Even though I dated him, I never felt like I wanted to keep him all to myself, and I didn't really enjoy getting close to him. But with you, Joshua, it's different. I want you all to myself."
