Chapter 155 To Find Another Woman?
Chapter 155 To Find Another Woman?
Natasha’s first instinct was to run.
But Jared caught her wrist, so she couldn’t even get close to the door.
“Let go!” Natasha shouted.
She struggled without thinking.
The next moment, he yanked her into his arms with a sudden, powerful pull.
Natasha, flushed with anger and embarrassment, snapped, “Jared, enough already! Even in the shower, you can’t keep your hands to yourself.”
Under the bathroom lights, her delicate face was tinged with a soft blush, so pink and tempting.
Her long lashes fluttered, adding to her irresistible charm.
It was impossible not to be drawn in.
Jared felt a sudden tightness in his lower abdomen, his gaze growing darker with longing.
He wrapped his arms around her, his voice rough and deep. “Want to do it right here in the bathroom?”
Natasha’s eyelids twitched nervously.
‘Do what?’ she wondered, her mind spinning.
She knew he was up to no good.
“No!” Natasha blurted out, her voice urgent.
Immediately after she said that, Jared threaded his fingers through her thick hair.
His lips kissed the curve of her ear, slow and seductive.
His tongue traced lazy circles around her sparkling earlobe, making her shiver.
“Why not?” he murmured, his voice low and husky against her ear. “You bought me underwear. Isn’t that your way of hinting you want something?”
Natasha’s lips twitched in disbelief.
“It wasn’t a hint…” She pushed frantically against his chest, anxiously denying it.
She never thought he’d get it so wrong.
“Let go of me!” she cried out.
‘I ruined his underwear in the wash last time, so I bought a new pair specifically to make it up to him. What did I even imply? I can’t wait for him to leave, okay?’ Natasha grumbled inwardly.
But Jared still wouldn’t let go.
“Not a fan of the bathroom? Should we move to the bedroom instead?” he teased, still nibbling at her earlobe.
Natasha’s ears were her most sensitive spot.
Jared’s hot, masculine breath blew against her ear, leaving it warm and ticklish.
Her whole body trembled uncontrollably.
“If you keep acting like this, I’m seriously starting to think you just showed up at my place to sleep with me!” Natasha snapped.
“Isn’t that exactly what I want?” Jared’s gaze smoldered, his voice dripping with desire.
Natasha was stunned. She never thought Jared would just come right out and say it like that.
His face was still pressed against her soft neck, his scent thick with desire filling the air around them.
Natasha tucked her chin in, unable to help but remind him, “I told you, I need two days to rest.”
They’d hooked up not long ago, and more than once.
She was completely wiped out.
There was no way she had the energy to go another round with him right now.
Jared’s jaw clenched, his gaze dark as he stared at her. “So you’re taking two days off just to get intimate with your husband?”

Natasha froze, and she looked at him like he’d just lost his mind.
“What did you say?” she asked.
‘I don’t even have a husband now, Natasha grumbled inwardly, totally speechless.
Jared’s eyes went cold. “After you came back, you didn’t hook up with your husband?”
Natasha shook her head right away, not even hesitating for a second.
Jared stared straight into her eyes. “Last night, you got into his car. Where did you go with him?”
Natasha’s brows furrowed instinctively.
‘How does he know I got into Percy’s car last night?’ she wondered, her mind racing. ‘Is he spying on me?’
That thought really made Natasha uncomfortable.
“That’s none of your business, okay?” she shot back, her tone sharp.
Natasha instinctively clammed up, not wanting to say a word.
Jealousy burned hotter in Jared’s chest.
The more Natasha kept quiet, the more he was sure she was covering something up.
“Did you two go on a date?” Jared asked, suspicion written all over his face.
Natasha rolled her eyes. “No.”
‘We’re divorced, so why would I go on a date with him?’ Natasha thought, feeling annoyed.
She was honestly so done talking about Percy.
She struggled again, trying to break free.
But Jared tightened his hold on her, making sure she couldn’t escape.
“Answer me!” he demanded, his voice low and insistent.
“What exactly do you want me to answer?” Natasha retorted, sounding impatient.
“Where did you two go last night?” Jared demanded.
He was burning with jealousy, completely unaware that he was acting just like a jealous husband right now. Natasha really wanted to tell him it was none of his business.
But she swallowed the words before they could slip out.
“If I tell you, will you finally let me go?” she asked, her voice tight with frustration.
“Say it!” Jared demanded.
“Last night was a Grosso family dinner, so I went with him to the Grosso mansion,” Natasha said calmly.
It was really just something between her and Percy.
But Jared wouldn’t let it go, so she ended up telling him anyway to stop his incessant prying.
Jared squinted, thinking, ‘So, all she did was accompany Percy to the Grosso mansion last night.
‘Looks like I jumped to the wrong conclusion. I guess nothing actually went down between them.
‘But if Natasha was willing to go back to the Grosso mansion with Percy, it means their marriage is still holding together for now. At least they have no plans to divorce yet.”
Jared’s mood soured again, a heavy gloom settling in his chest.
“You’re still not planning to divorce him?” Jared stared her down, his gaze intense.
Natasha was stunned for a second.
She never expected him to mention divorce just like that.
‘Did he notice something?’ she thought, suddenly uneasy.
But she and Percy had signed a confidentiality agreement.
So, of course, she couldn’t tell Jared about it.
“It’s a family arrangement, and divorce isn’t my call,” Natasha explained instinctively.
Jared’s eyes turned stormy. “So you’re just planning to keep mooching off me, getting all the benefits without giving anything in return?”
Natasha was so speechless that she could only stare in disbelief, feeling utterly dumbfounded.

‘Mooching off him? Can he really say that with a straight face?’ she thought, rolling her eyes.
“You can’t tell me you didn’t enjoy it every single time,” Natasha retorted, unable to hold back.
‘It’s not like I’m the only one getting all the pleasure, she thought. ‘He got his, too.’
Jared nipped at her earlobe, his voice low and teasing. “What if I never want to stop enjoying you?”
Jared admitted he had grown addicted to Natasha, yet if they had no real relationship, he would only ever be her secret,
lover.
He could never have her openly and legitimately for the rest of his life, let alone sleep with her whenever he wanted.
He would even have to endure sharing her with other men.
That was the last thing he wanted.
