The Kidnapped Bride

Chapter 352 - Dirty Mind

PRESENT

"Charles ended up knowing since he had already seen the symptoms of something like this occurring,'' Javier revealed to which Jennifer didn't react much.

But her grip surely tightened around his embrace. "So…how were you told about this all?"

"Mother told me that father has someone in his life and she doesn't want to stay with him anymore. I never asked for details since I was so much absorbed by the fact that my family was breaking into two pieces."

"Yet in the end, I understood her concern. She was of high self-respect, she won't accept herself being betrayed in this. Although, they both were never mutually divorced until her death….later on, she always addressed herself as Ms. Anderson."

Jennifer nodded her head remembering when she went to the lady's grave, why did he ask her to call her Ms. Anderson but not Mrs. Johnson. Yet the story was already embedded in her mind.

Imagining what his mother had to go through, just because Shirley, already boiled her blood. If the power was in her hand, she would have erased that time.

But it was already out of her hands.

Or probably, this wasn't in anyone's hand, except Mr. Johnson who had done the deed to break his wife's heart.

Her mood turned grim when she lowered her head. Bringing the blanket closer to their body, her eyes traced to see the firepit that was burning. "Your mother was a strong woman…"

"Indeed," he muttered but this was the only thing he found to express.

At this point, things have turned into a past that was a big part of their lives. With the passage of time, both the brothers have learned to move on from that aspect of their lives.

But this never meant that they don't bore the same hatred in their heart for their father and the now so-called Mrs. Johnson.

Jennifer lifted her head to stare at him, who held his expressionless face.

As she brought her hand near his brows, she simply caressed them with her light hand.

"You don't have to feel those feelings anymore. Your mother must be happy that her sons have grown up into such brilliant and responsible adults." Javier passed her a sweet smile.

"You are being cheesy, Mrs. Johnson." Was she? Jennifer didn't think so. "Just merely stating a fact for you. Don't feel despair."

As she said this, Jennifer rotated herself from his embrace to stare in those deep inking eyes which held no less mystery and sentiments which he hadn't shared with her until now...

Without tearing her gaze, her lips parted to say, "You know that I'm there with you in every situation?"

Javier's brows lifted from their place, "Every situation? Do you make a promise?"

"I promise to never leave your hand, no matter in what situation you lie. I will always be a part of your heart wherever I go.." Jennifer brought herself more closer before her lips planted a soft kiss over his cheeks.

A chuckle left out of his mouth on her, behaving so confidently. This side of hers was foreign since she wasn't the one who expresses her love for him so openly.

But seeing her doing so only added to the butterflies in his stomach where a slight blush crept on his cheeks as well. "Alright. It is already late…Don't you want to sleep now?"

"But I don't feel like sleeping. I have rested for the entire day." Jennifer made a pout to depict that her eyes were still very much fresh.

Moreover, her energy level was pretty high which wasn't in the need of sleep.

While Javier noted he was making excuses, he took a deep breath before his hands cupped her face into his palm. "Is that so?" she vigorously nodded her head.

"Then…I do know how to make you fall to sleep. It will also make you a bit weak and ultimately you will fall into sleep.." hearing this, Jennifer blinked her eyes with twisted expressions to not realize what he meant.

"Really…? What is that then? Tell me." she asked doubtedly.

In return, he immediately pulled her near him when she kept her hand against his hard chest, her face almost touching his nose. As her eyes widened at the sudden jerk which she received but didn't revolt as well.

"W-What…a-are you…"

"Didn't you say that I should tell you? But now I feel…telling doesn't have the same charm as compared to doing..hmm?" With this, his hand traced to her back making Jennifer gulp the saliva present in her mouth.

"N-No…thank you…I'm on my periods so…we…" her stammering made Javier's grin spread all over his face which reached his ears, "Wait, what did you think? Hmm?"

"I wasn't thinking of anything wrong but it seems like my lady is interested in showing her something..if that is what you want?" Javier asked in his husky-coated tone, making Jennifer feel a shiver down her spine.

His hands roamed everywhere on her back, which slightly went under her sweater to touch her bare skin. 'Gosh…why do I feel electric current all over my body?' Despite him being her husband, she felt so shy!

Her dirty mind…!

"I..I..didn't think of anything…" Jennifer said but Javier didn't buy her lie.

He gave her a look to express he already knew, to tease her when Jennifer buried her head in his chest. "You are a tease!"

"So what? Am I not allowed to bully my dear wife? Hmm?"? but Javier liked her clutching to his body as if he was her world. It gave him satisfaction, with his heart filled with immense love for this human being.

How is it possible for a person to love another human being so dearly?

Without muttering anything, Javier lifted her off the ground while standing on his toes. Lifting her in the bridal style with the blanket still wrapped around her pretty body, Javier brought his wife on the bed.

Making her lay on the soft mattress, he put the pillow under her head, "Sleep. You are still on medicines."

Jennifer nodded but her eyes never broke from his well-defined face. Her inner heart told her to actually reveal what she knew about her family, to be on the safest side.

After all, she can't afford to leave this man anymore.

When Javier lifted himself from the bed, he kept his leg down on the ground. He was ready to turn around and walk to the washroom before he felt his hand being tugged.

Once again, he saw Jennifer holding his wrist with her longing gaze, "Hmm?"

"I...I…wanted to tell you something…"
