Chapter 219
Skylar’s mind went blank in an instant. She didn’t know when Joe had switched their positions so that she was now straddling him. His hand pressed down on her head, while the other wrapped around her waist.
Skylar felt like a lamb waiting to be slaughtered; unable to move. She had never experienced such a crazy and domineering kiss before.
When Joe finally released her, her breathing was uneven. She had almost suffocated from the lack of oxygen.
Joe stroked Skylar’s hair gently. His touch was tender. His voice was low and teasing with a hint of satisfaction. “Still find me old?”
If she still did, he would make her think otherwise in bed.
Skylar felt dizzy from the kiss and was a bit scared. Once she had caught her breath, she managed to say, “I swear I don’t… I don’t find you old.”
“I’ll believe you this time.” Joe’s voice seemed to have grown even deeper than before.
Skylar wanted to stand up but Joe stopped her. “Don’t move.” His voice was stern.
Feeling a bit wronged, Skylar said, “I’m not doing this on purpose. Sitting like this is uncomfortable.”
“I’m uncomfortable too.” Joe’s voice grew even deeper. Skylar fit his physical type in every way and aroused his sexual desires. Facing her, he felt like he couldn’t restrain himself.
Skylar was on the verge of tears, “Please let go of me.” If he released the hand that was holding her waist, she could stand up. His hand felt like it was on fire; it burned her waist.
Joe looked at Skylar’s slightly swollen lips. He cleared his throat and let go of her waist.
Skylar immediately stood up and walked out of the hot spring pool. It was as if she was escaping something deadly.
“I… I’m tired. I’ll go take a shower and rest. See you tomorrow. Skylar didn’t even glance at Joe as she pushed open the door and entered the villa.
She looked like she was fleeing from something terrifying.
Joe chuckled. His eyes deepened when he realized that he had been a bit impulsive just now. After soaking in the hot spring for a while, coupled with the effects of alcohol, he had become too unrestrained.
He pressed his temples in frustration and stood up.
Skylar went upstairs and went straight into the shower. She washed off the hot spring water from her body. After changing into clean clothes, she returned to her room.
As she lay in bed, her mind was filled with images of what had just happened. It was too much.
Chapter 219
Suddenly, her phone beeped with incoming WhatsApp messages. She picked up her phone to try to calm
herself down.
The private detective had sent over some photos and even a few videos. She watched them one by one.
It showed images of how Maisy had taken drugs and been with men in the bar. Everything had been. recorded. However, it was still unclear whether the substances they had consumed were drugs.
“I’ll continue to investigate and gather solid evidence,” the detective said.
Skylar replied with a simple “okay” and closed the chat. She then saw an unread message from Natalie. She opened it and read it.
Was it really a coincidence? Jeremy wasn’t at the office. He had been supposed to be on a business trip tomorrow, but he had left earlier today?
