Chapter 223 Wedding Night
“That’s true…” Josephine agreed with Jonathan’s remark.
If it were a few months ago, she might doubt his character or even believe Ysobel’s lie.
However, as she spent more time with him and understood him better, she grew to question the truth of Ysobel’s claim back then.
He has the Vanquisher King of War backing him up, and even Randall, the mayor of Jadeborough, acts all submissive with him. Would a man like him go for a hooker by the roadside for a hundred? That’s impossible! After all, he can have any woman he wants!
“So, why did she slander you?” Josephine burrowed into Jonathan’s arms, just like a kitten.
Rubbing his stubble, Jonathan reckoned, “Perhaps she envied you, jealous that you found such a handsome husband!”
“Tsk!”
In response, Josephine rolled her eyes at him.
She had no idea of her infinite allure to the man right that moment. Coupled with her cheeks that were stained crimson and her glazed eyes, she looked exceedingly adorable and sensual.
In a flash, Jonathan’s control snapped, and he pounced on her.
“Mmph!”
Before Josephine could brace herself, the man had already pinned her beneath him.
All that followed was a feminine cry.
She was pulled under the covers, upon which the atmosphere in the room turned risqué in the blink of an eye.
“I’m scared, Jonathan.”
“Why are you scared?”
“I’m scared of the pain.”
“Don’t be afraid, for it won’t hurt.”
“Don’t lie to me! Books always say that it hurts badly. Will you tell me a story, Jonathan?”
“What story do you want to listen to?”
“Your story when you were in the military.”
Th entire room was pitch dark.
Jonathan had long since turned off the lights sometime or other, but just when he was about to flip over and enter her, she requested that he tell her a story out of the blue.
Only God knows how tormenting it was for a man at such a time, especially for a man who hadn’t been with any women for years.
Asking him to stop at that very moment was even crueler than killing him outright.
“Okay, I’ll tell you my story if you want to listen to it.” Left with no other choice, Jonathan rolled back over and flopped onto the bed.
Upon hearing that, Josephine stifled a giggle and nestled into his arms.
“I just knew that you’re the best!” Flipping over, she sprawled on his chest and pecked him on the lips.
That simple action almost had Jonathan’s desire exploding once more.
He gritted his teeth and suppressed his desire before he started narrating his story. “The story begins from three years back. Three years ago, I accidentally broke into a military camp. I later went to battle everywhere with Asura to restore peace to the nations. It wasn’t until after the world was peaceful that I retired from the military and returned to Jadeborough…”
He continued telling his story while keeping a tight rein on his desire. However, Josephine had actually drifted off at some time, sprawled on his chest.
Soon, her even breathing drifted into his ears.
Stroking her head in exasperation, he tucked the covers around her and left the room with a cigarette in hand.
Since she has married me, I’m in no rush to consummate our marriage. I’ve already waited for four years, so what’s another day or two?
