HONEY, Love Me One More Time novel Chapter 159

Estelle was a little surprised. 
Although Tim was her boss and schoolmate, she didn’t think that they were familiar enough to talk about private affairs. And Tim’s sudden words made her feel a little uneasy. 
Unexpectedly, what Tim said next was even more shocking. “Divorce him and be with me.”
Estelle was silent for a while and then said with a chuckle, “Mr. Roberts, this joke is not funny.”
“I’m not kidding, Estelle. I’ve thought about it. You’re really talented in jewelry design. To prevent you from job-hopping in the future, I decided to start a relationship with you.”
Estelle was stunned by his words. “Mr. Roberts, I have no intention of job-hopping. You don’t have to make such a sacrifice.”
“Nothing in life is certain. I heard from Bob that you need more money. Maybe you will change your mind in the future if another jewelry company offers you a higher salary.”
“Rebecca recommended me to work in our company. I won’t change my job for her sake,” Estelle abruptly explained.
“But you may quit your job and become a housewife again if you remarry after getting a divorce. You have given up your career for your marriage once. Estelle, if you are with me, you can do whatever you like. Only Love Jewelry is a good platform and can provide more opportunities for you so that you can maximize your talent. Isn’t it good for us to join together and do better in our industry?”
Hearing this, Estelle frowned and said, “Mr. Roberts, you have never been in a relationship, right?”
“What’s wrong? You discriminate against me?”
“No, I didn’t mean that. A man and a woman should be together with each other based on love. Those who are together just because they are well-matched in power or ability can only be called partners connected by marriage.”
“Whatever. Just tell me if you will be with me,” Tim said, “You’d better think it over before you reply to me.”
Estelle chuckled and declined him, “I’m sorry, Mr. Roberts. You deserve someone better than me. And if I recall correctly, I’ve told you before that I’m in a relationship.”
“Who’s that man?” Tim asked. “Is he more handsome than me?”
“Sometimes, love is not about appearance.”
“Then what is it about? Listen to me. Break up with him. You are so bad at judging men. Be careful not to be cheated on again. Think about my proposal carefully. I will give you some time to...”
Suddenly, someone from behind took Estelle’s phone away from her hand, and she was startled. 
When she was about to turn her head, her eyes were immediately covered by a warm palm.
The next moment, Mr. Mysterious whispered in her ear, “Did Tim confess his love to you?”
Estelle licked her lips and said, “He... He probably just wants me to be his cooperative partner.”
“No. I can see that he has a crush on you,” Mr. Mysterious sneered and said. “Why do I always have rivals in love? Estelle, you are so charming.”
Estelle was at a loss for what to say.
Mr. Mysterious then raised her chin slightly with the other hand and kissed her gently. “Are you feeling better?” he asked in a sexy voice full of affection.
Estelle immediately understood what he meant, and she blushed to her ears.
It had been almost two months since she gave birth to Yvonne. And she was indeed in a better condition than before. But she was not mentally prepared to have sex with him.
“Sir, could you give me some more time?” Estelle asked.
“Do you still feel unwell?” Mr. Mysterious said with concern.
“No, I’m fine. And I’m feeling better these days. I just think that I’d better not do that before I complete the divorce procedures with Cristofer.”
Hearing this, Mr. Mysterious sighed with pity and said with a helpless smile, “Alas, I hate the cooling-off period.”
Feeling the depression in his tone, Estelle was a little guilty, and she put her arms around his waist gently to comfort him. 
Then she smelled the familiar scent of cologne and a faint smell of cigarettes.
“Sir, did you smoke?”
“Something made me upset today, so I smoke. Is the smell strong? I’m sorry.”
Estelle shook her head and said, “No, it’s faint. Have you encountered something difficult to solve?”
“Yes.”
“Then, is there anything I can do to help you?”
“There is, but just now, you refused me,” Mr. Mysterious said with a sigh. 
Estelle was speechless and felt that her face burned with shyness.
“I will respect your decision,” Mr. Mysterious said gently. “Estelle, close your eyes. I’ll turn off the light.”
Estelle nodded and closed her eyes.
Then she heard Mr. Mysterious light footsteps, followed by the clicking sound of the light switch.
“By the way, where is Mrs. Moorsum?” Estelle asked.
“I’ve asked her to go back home. Yohan and Yvonne are in the children’s room.”
“I see... Ah!” Estelle exclaimed when Mr. Mysterious suddenly carried her in his arms.
Mr. Mysterious then took her back to the main bedroom, gently put her down on the big bed, and began French-kissing her.
It was the first time that the two of them had been so intimate. 
Mr. Mysterious was out of control and kissed her more and more passionately. It was not until Estelle moaned in pain that he ended the kiss slowly.
Estelle felt as if Mr. Mysterious was an extremely thirsty man walking in a desert for a long time, and she was the only bottle of water in his hand.
“Estelle.”
“Huh?”
Mr. Mysterious took off his tie, threw it aside casually, and then unbuttoned the two buttons at the collar of his shirt. 
“I’ve helped you take revenge on Gretchen today. Is there any reward?” He asked in a husky voice.
Estelle felt her throat go dry and swallowed subconsciously. “What reward do you want?”
“You have never taken the initiative to kiss me,” Mr. Mysterious uttered.
Clearing her throat, Estelle slowly wrapped her arms around his neck.
However, there was a problem.
The bedroom was so dark, and she couldn’t see where his lips were at all. 
“Sir, may I... touch your face?” Estelle asked.
Mr. Mysterious replied to her with a lazy voice, “Why?”
Estelle immediately explained, “I’m not trying to find out what you look like. I just can’t find where your lips are.”
“Estelle, you know what? I feel very frustrated now,” Mr. Mysterious said helplessly and sighed. 
“Why?”
“On such a wonderful night, we can do nothing but kiss. I want you to kiss me, but it seems difficult for you. It’s really frustrating,” Mr. Mysterious said in a hoarse voice.
Biting her lower lip, Estelle didn’t say anything. Lying in his arms, she could feel his powerful heartbeat.
After a short silence, Mr. Mysterious said, “Forget it. I’ll be the one who takes the initiative.”
The two of them spent a wonderful night together.
