My Ex-Husband Wants Me Again novel Chapter 36

Chapter 36 

It might have happened in the blink of an eye, but Pearl wasn’t wholly inescapable. 

But before she could react, she was pulled away by a large hand, and her entire body tumbled uncontrollably in the opposite direction. Her nove collided firmly with a solid chest, causing sharp pain that nearly brought tears to her eyes. 

Mare was surprisingly strong, and at that very moment, with all his strength, he pressed Pearl firmly into his arms. Half of Pearl’s face was nestled against his chest, and she could distinctly hear the rhythmic thudding of his heartbeat in her ears. 

The sensation was entirely foreign to her. 

Pearl found herself momentarily bewildered. 

She had been married to Mare for three years, and he had never taken the initiative to touch her. An intimate encounter like today’s was the first since she had met him. 

Pearl had often fantasized about what it would be like to be held in Marc’s arms someday. She had imagined it would be sweet, but she hadn’t anticipated the sourness she was feeling now, She had thought his embrace would be tender, but it was quite firm! 

“Has he been lifting lead weights at the gym? Why are his chest 

st muscles so hard?” she thought in her heart. 

Pearl gingerly touched her throbbing nose, thankful she didn’t have a face–lift. Otherwise, she might have had to rethink having a face–lift “I’m so sorry.” The staff who had witnessed the near collision was also half terrified and offered repeated apologies. 

Marc spoke earnestly, “Please be more careful in the future? 

Though the staff didn’t recognize Mare, they deduced from his attire and imposing demeanor that he was someone accustomed to giving orders They couldn’t afford to upset such a big shot, so they nodded repeatedly and assured him they would, 

Pearl managed to endure the discomfort in her nose. Once the staff had retreated, leaving only the two of them backstage, a heavy silence enveloped them. 

The he two stood there in silence, maintaining their positions and awkwardly realizing one thing…. 

Their bodies were incredibly close together.

A sudden feeling surged from the soles of their feet, shooting up like a skyrocket to their heads. Both could feel their bodies stiffen in reaction, then swiftly separate as it hit by an electric shockt 

Pearl instinctively clasped her forearms, and Mare pinched his Engertips. Even the tips of their ears turned red. 

The atmosphere seemed to grow even more awkward. 

Pearl discreetly closed her eyes, contemplating whether she should reprimand Marc, who had taken advantage of her and gave him a slap 

But upon second thought, she realized he had hugged her earlier to save her. People who display such bravery and with a banner, not punished with a slap, right

At this moment, her inner turmod was rich with drama, but Mare had no hidden motives. After the embarrassment subsided, he quickly regained his serious demeanor and said, “You need to be more careful. You can’t stand in the aisle like that. What if something had hit you? 

In his memory, she had always been shy and obedient. He had a bad temper, and when he occasionally scolded her, she would obediently bow her brail, seemingly easy to bully, with no hint of a temper.
