When I Met You novel Chapter 36

Susan lied in bed but everything felt to her like a dream. She wanted to open her eyes and get a good look of this man’s face, but for some reason he made her feel that everything was very surreal.

It felt exactly like she was living in a dream world.

When that man walked towards her, he said, “You are really careless. You have left your wallet in the bar just now.”

Susan groggily accepted the wallet while feeling a little tense all of a sudden.

“Did you see the contents of my wallet?”

Edward always left room for her privacy, so he never really went through her stuff before, and at the same time she made it a point not to intrude into his privacy too.

Therefore, there was a photo of her and Ruby in her wallet, and she would grab every chance Edward was not around to check out that photo, to get a glimpse of Ruby.

“Is there anything inside that shouldn’t be seen?”

That man asked.

“Not really.”

“You can go now.”

Susan shook her head and retorted, “You are the one who should be leaving. I need to sleep now.”

“You aren’t that bad of a drinker to begin with. Why are you so drunk today?”

Susan let those words slowly burrowed into her eardrums as she continued to stare at this man in front of her.

She muttered, “Jarvis?”

However, there was no reply after that.

Susan didn’t understand what was happening to her body. In fact, all the while, especially ever since that incident happened, she never had a dream about that incident.

Whenever it rained, she would dream of a scene where she was kneeling on the road, not being able to bring herself to her feet. She would allow the rain to splatter all over her and soak her thoroughly while she continued to beg Kendra to tell her about Jarvis’ whereabouts.

Why was this time so different? Everything from that time was replayed right in front of her eyes.

First, she had met Kendra too, and then she had drunk too much alcohol. After that, she was sent by someone to this hotel room, and she remembered her mouth being parched and dried. She opened the door to get herself a beverage from a vending machine not far away, and after she returned to the room, she let the door ajar. When she lied down in bed, a man entered the room.

That man slowly removed her clothes and was able to own her.

The first thought that came to her mind was that this man was Jarvis, so she had tried to produce some response. She even questioned him about his loyalty and appreciation towards her after finally being together with her.

Despite that, that man was silent all the time.

She couldn’t make out the man’s face, but she felt her current feelings overlap with what she once felt. This sensation was all too familiar.

Susan sensed a hand touching and caressing her skin, and that man asked her, “Do you love Jarvis?”

Susan suddenly became clear-headed as she sat upright and asked, “Husband? Why are you here? Why did you come into my room?”

Her questions were met with nothingness as the man gently planted a kiss on her forehead and slowly pressed himself on her.

He was removing her clothes…

He was going to do it with her…

Susan didn’t know how to describe what was happening to her. She felt strangely shy and sensitive, just like that moment from all those years before.
