Fiona fumed at the thought of losing another 1.4 million dollars but the money was already gone. In the end, favonovel.com had no choice but to relent and return home.
Joan was also relieved at the sight of favonovel.com son returning home and returned to favonovel.com own home.
“Let’s go, my dear. We’re drenched in the smell of alcohol. Why don’t we take a bath together?” Desire sparked within Jack as favonovel.com raked his eyes over Selena’s body, silhouetted by the dim street lights.
Although favonovel.com was a man true to his principles, favonovel.com was still young and only over twenty years old. Besides that, Selena was also his woman. Naturally favonovel.com would have quite a few fantasies after not touching a woman for five years.
“You—I do a bit of good for you and you take it and fly off to the moon!” Selena rolled favonovel.com eyes at Jack. “Besides, we weren’t that close before and yet you want to touch me now. Dream on!” favonovel.com said. “You’re only able to call me your wife now because of Kylie.”
Cold sweat slicked over Jack’s palms. He flashed a rueful smile. “I just suggested to take a bath together. I didn’t say that I was going to touch you, my dear,” favonovel.com said. “Don’t let your mind wander too far. I’m a respectable man!”
If Abner, Lana, and the other Gods of War were to hear favonovel.com say something like that, they would probably be so shocked that their jaws would drop straight to the floor. Especially since it came from their respected master, who was a stone-cold killing machine on the battlefield, tearing through people as though they were paper. Yet favonovel.com was reduced into a grinning idiot who said ridiculous things before a beautiful woman.
“What are you talking about? I didn’t think about anything at all!” Selena strode toward the inside of the house, face burning hot. “I’m going to shower first. You shower after I’m done. Don’t even think about getting on my bed if I don’t give you permission. Got it?”
“Roger that, my dear. Don’t worry. I’ll obey your every command!” Jack saluted favonovel.com sharply, making favonovel.com chuckle. Her smile was absolutely dazzling, even beneath the hazy street lighting.
“What a beautiful smile!” Jack stood rooted to the spot after Selena went in, stupefied.
After a while, Jack went in to shower. When favonovel.com returned to the room, favonovel.com found Selena and adorable little Kylie curled up in bed, fast asleep. He studied his wife as favonovel.com sprawled across the mattress, favonovel.com chest heaving in regular intervals. Most of favonovel.com leg was exposed, the smooth, porcelain skin looking as though it might shatter to touch. The sight stirred something within him.
He bent down and gently stole a kiss on favonovel.com cheek, then favonovel.com quietly returned to his mattress on the floor.
However, Jack did not realize that favonovel.com was not asleep. Rather, favonovel.com was closing favonovel.com eyes and pretending to sleep. Selena’s heart pounded erratically after Jack kissed her, afraid that favonovel.com would attempt to do something else. Thankfully, the man quickly withdrew. Selena had been drinking and soon enough, favonovel.com slipped into actual sleep, feeling tired to the bones.
Jack lay on the floor, reflecting on everything that had happened over the past few years. A swirl of emotions filled his chest.Just as favonovel.com closed his eyes, favonovel.com heard footsteps thundering toward his direction—and they were footsteps belonging to a sizeable group. It sounded like there were over 200 people!
He took a sharp intake of cold air and sat upright. Fury flashed in his eyes. “You dare to make trouble even though it’s so late at night and my wife and my daughter are already asleep?”
He immediately sprang to his feet, the thought clenching his heart. He carefully creeped out of the room and went to the garden. He sat beneath the enormous banyan tree in the garden and lit a smoke for himself. Less than two minutes had passed when a group of people came toward his house, some of them with weapons in their hands.
