Essie found that Zac seemed to be full of energy. After the fierce 'water battle', he didn't feel tired at all. He lay beside her and fiddled with her hair with interest.
He rolled it up with his fingers, put it down, then rolled it up and then put it down again.
Exhausted, Essie just wanted to sleep and ignored him. He could play as he liked.
After a while, he changed the way to braid her hair. After a good sleep, Essie touched her head, feeling a mess in her heart. He had braided twenty pigtails for her.
"When I was a child, I saw aunt Luce braid your hair. Then I learned how to braid it. Every time I went to the Xu family's manor to visit you, I would remove your braid and then braid it for you again." Zac smiled.
"Why don't I remember?" Essie turned to look at him.
"You were only three years old at that time, of course you wouldn't remember." Zac rubbed her nose dotingly and continued, "I hurt you once. You cried and never let me braid again. I then forced you and tempted you. I would buy you a Barbie doll if you let me braid it once."
"You bullied me when I was a child, and you bullied me when I grew up!" Essie glanced at him coquettishly.
"You are born for me. You are destined to be under my control. Just accept your fate!" Zac smiled evilly.
"What if I don't?" Raising her eyebrows stubbornly, Essie looked unyielding.
"Do you still have a way out?" Zac sneered, with malicious and insidious light flashing in his cold eyes. She had been monopolized by him all her life.
"Nothing is absolute. I can run away once, and I can also run away for the second time," Essie said in a threatening tone. Although she was very clear that the possibility was zero, and even if she couldn't let go of the big one, she couldn't let go of the kids. She just wanted to fight against him fearlessly.
Zac's face darkened. During the three years she was in the United States, his life was a torture to him, and there were still scars that hadn't been removed. At this moment, her words poked his scar hard.
He turned over fiercely and said, "You can try it if you are not afraid of death, but don't ever want to see the sun above your head again." He threatened word by word, and then punished her, because her words irritated him.
Realizing his intention, Essie was so frightened that her face turned pale. She wanted to struggle and escape, but he was as strong as Five Fingers Mountain, and even if she were the Monkey King, she couldn't escape.
When Essie woke up again, it was already dark. She was very hungry. The first thing she did when she got up was to fill her stomach. The second thing was to ask Jay to investigate the man beside Peri for her. Her intuition told her that this man might not be simple. There must be a plot behind it.
On the yacht, Eva and Terence had just watched the horror movie Ghost Husband in Thailand.
"You are afraid of ghosts, but you still watch horror movie." Seeing the touched look on her face, he teased her.
"I'm afraid of a real ghost, not a ghost in a movie." Shrugging, Eva said, "I think this film is the most touching one among the horror movies I've watched. 'I'm afraid of ghosts, but I'm more afraid that I can't be with you.' It's too touching. The ending is good. The hero, his ghost wife and ghost son finally live happily together. "
She paused and sighed, "Look, people in Thailand have a more open mind towards ghosts. In our mind, there is always the difference between human and ghost. When people are together with ghosts, they will consume masculine energy and so on. Maybe they can make peace with each other. "
He was speechless. Recently, this heaven pepper had fallen into a ghost trap.
"Are you possessed by a ghost?"
Eva suddenly stretched out her hands, stood up and jumped like a zombie. Then he stuck out his tongue at him and said, "I'm ferocious ghost coming to ask for your life."
"Childish."
Eva put away her tongue and said seriously, "Well, I will say something that is not childish, scum Jim. Will you be afraid if the ghost of Janice appears in front of you?"
His handsome face suddenly turned gloomy. Janice was a wound he didn't want to touch, and it would hurt as long as he touched it.
"You are talking more and more nonsense."
"Scum Jim, I'm serious. What will you think if the ghost of Janice comes back and follows you all the time?"
"There is no such if," Jim took a sip of the cocktail on the table and said coldly.
Eva wanted to tell him that she had seen the ghost of Janice, but she swallowed the words. Even if she told him, he would still think that she was crazy and would not believe it, would he?
After a long silence, she said in a low voice, "Scum Jim, we have to make a rule in the future that you are not allowed to take advantage of me again. We have to keep a normal distance. I'm married. It's immoral for you to do this to me. I love my Vinton. He is very important to me. If he misunderstands me and abandons me, I will be sad to death. "
After leaving the deck, she brushed her teeth three times, trying to get rid of his breath. She felt humiliated and angry. She knew very well that he just wanted to humiliate her.
She struggled hard and tried to push him away, but his strength was too strong. He overwhelmed her in an instant, and she could not resist at all. The most terrible thing was that he had an inexplicable magic that could absorb intelligence and fighting spirit, making her a weak mass of cotton. Not only could she not use her strength, but also her brain.
