Jim stared at Bonnie in disbelief. Despite looking pale and feeble, she was grinning and staring at him with a look of anticipation, and a wave of emotions surged into his heart when he met her gaze. “Bonnie!” he lunged forward and pulled Bonnie into his arms so forcefully that it was as though he would break her bones. “This is the best day of my life! You‘re finally awake…” He began to plant kisses all over her face—from her forehead to her eyelids, to her cheeks, lips, and finally her jaw–as he gushed, “I love you, Bonnie. Can you hear me? I love you. As long as you never leave me again…I‘ll do whatever you want! I mean it…”
Jim, who was usually haughty and collected, seemed to have lost his sanity as he continued pressing kisses all over Bonnie‘s face.
Bonnie felt that her face was covered in slobber, and if Jim had done this to her in the past, she would have snapped at him immediately.
At this moment, she did not have the strength to yell at him…nor did she want to.
If she remembered correctly, this was the first time Jim had ever done something like this to her in front of so many people.
In the past, even in their honeymoon phase, Jim would exert his self–restraint when in the public eye, so much so that sometimes, Bonnie could not help wondering if he never intended to take their relationship public at all.
At this very second, however, the man who would always keep his distance from her in public was declaring his love for her while kissing her everywhere.
How could she not be delighted by this? How could she possibly stop him? Despite enjoying this attention, after a while, Bonnie could not help feeling a little annoyed.
