His Mute Wife: He Can't Sleep After She Left-Chapter 82: Show Me How Much You Love Me

Kiana Sutton bit her lip, feeling incredibly upset inside.

Ethan Sinclair knew very well that she liked him, yet he still chatted on the phone with Kate Lynch right in front of her. It was truly heart-wrenching!

"Ian, are you free this weekend?"

"What’s up?"

"I... I should be able to walk normally by then. I’d like to treat you to a meal."

Kiana Sutton lowered her head, and Ethan Sinclair couldn’t see her expression, which somewhat annoyed him.

He pinched Kiana’s chin, forcing her to look up at him, his lips curled into a gentle smile, "Sure, where do you want to eat?"

Seeing the arrogance and pride in Ethan Sinclair’s eyes, a wave of grievance and unwillingness surged in Kiana’s heart.

In the next moment, she pushed Ethan Sinclair away and got up, then turned and pushed Ethan down onto the hanging chair.

The chair creaked under the weight, and Kate Lynch on the other end of the phone heard something unusual, anxiously asking, "Ian, what’s wrong? Are you okay?"

Not giving Ethan a chance to answer, Kiana Sutton hugged Ethan’s neck and lay directly on him. When she wanted to bravely kiss him, Ethan clasped her neck.

Ethan pushed Kiana away a little and continued to deal with Kate, "It’s nothing, just a fearless little cat jumping on me."

"Cat? You have a cat now?"

"No..."

Kate wanted to say more, but Ethan said blandly, "Kate, it’s getting late. You should rest early."

"...Okay, good night."

After hanging up, Ethan tossed his phone aside, mercilessly pushing Kiana Sutton away with his other hand.

Kiana was unprepared and almost fell to the ground.

As she steadied herself and looked angrily at Ethan, ready to leave, Ethan suddenly stood up and pinned her against the weight-bearing wall on the balcony.

"Getting angry just because you can’t kiss?"

Kiana’s face turned red, half out of anger, half out of embarrassment!

Heaven knows how much courage she mustered to dare to do what she just did, only to be utterly and completely rejected.

"Let go!"

Kiana forcefully pushed Ethan, but she was naturally weak, and under Ethan’s restraint, she couldn’t move him at all.

Suddenly, Ethan’s cool hand gently stroked Kiana’s cheek, and she paused, hearing Ethan’s low, seductive voice.

"Kiana Sutton, you say you like me, how much do you like me?"

Kiana was stunned. She never expected Ethan to ask her this question one day.

"What? Difficult to answer?"

Kiana shook her head, her heart beating fast, nervous and anxious. She seriously gestured, "I like you very much, very much!"

Ethan was obviously dissatisfied with this answer and pressed further, "How much is very much?"

How much does she like Ethan?

Since the first sight she liked him, her eyes could no longer hold anyone else.

She loved him, humble and despairing.

Someone said that the highest level of loving someone is letting go, but she couldn’t do it. Even knowing the one he loves is Kate, she didn’t want to let go.

Even if there was just a glimmer of hope, she wanted to hold on to him tightly!

Seeing that Kiana was unresponsive, Ethan released her.

Kiana looked at Ethan in confusion, did he let her go so easily?

In the next second, she saw Ethan tilting his head to loosen his tie, his fingers long and beautiful, his way of untying it relaxed and sexy, making Kiana’s heart flutter just by watching.

It’s no wonder she’s moved; the adversary is just too strong.

"You say you like me very much, but don’t say how much. How am I supposed to believe you?"

Now, Kiana’s mind was full of Ethan’s sexy Adam’s apple and collarbone, not catching Ethan’s words clearly.

Ethan always liked to leave his marks on her, and she wanted to bite Ethan but was afraid to do so.

Until...

Ethan said, "Tell you what, if you jump from here, I’ll believe you like me very much!"

Kiana snapped back, her face full of disbelief.

At this moment, Ethan’s suit and tie had been thrown onto the sofa in the room, leaving him in just a white shirt, holding a cigarette between his thumb and forefinger. With his noble and aloof demeanor, his words were chilling.

The room was on the second floor, but below the balcony was the lotus pond. If she jumps, can she survive?

Leaning against the wall, Ethan’s gaze on Kiana was chilly, "Don’t you like me very much? Can’t even do such a simple thing. Could it be... you were lying to me about liking me?"

Kiana shook her head, even a hundred times braver, she wouldn’t dare deceive him!

"Come... prove to me how much you like me!"

Kiana clenched her fists, finally understanding that Ethan had been holding a grudge, and just because he didn’t react in the car didn’t mean he would let her off!

Though she didn’t know why he was mad today.

He probably didn’t care about how much she liked him. He was just looking for an excuse to punish her.

Kiana knew very well that Ethan insisted she jump into the lotus pond. If she didn’t, she wouldn’t have a good time tonight and might even bring trouble to Joshua.

At such a critical moment, she absolutely couldn’t anger Ethan.

Moreover, her love for him was so strong that she wasn’t even afraid of death, let alone this?

Taking a deep breath, Kiana, who was not tall enough to reach the balcony’s surface, moved a chair over and got up from it to stand on the ledge.

She closed her eyes, steeled herself, and jumped down.

"Kiana Sutton!"

Ethan instinctively reached out to grab her, only touching her clothing’s edge, failing to catch her.

With a splash, Ethan’s heart constricted violently as Kiana fell into the lotus pond.

Swearing, Ethan jumped in without a thought.

Damn...

He thought Kiana, usually so timid, would hesitate even if she wanted to jump, never expecting her to leap without hesitation.

Not a single sign!

After pulling Kiana ashore, Ethan pointed at her nose, scolding, "I told you to jump, so you did. Why don’t you just drop dead if I told you to?"

Kiana shivered from cold as Ethan carried her into the room and threw her into the bathroom.

Furiously, he ripped off Kiana’s clothes, the lingering fear mingling with unknown excitement and thrill, burning away his reason.

Kiana couldn’t speak, enduring the discomfort and pain.

She was a bit scared too, after all, in the middle of the night, who knew what could be in the water, what if danger lurked?

"Kiana Sutton, you deserve to die! Deserve!"

Ethan felt on the verge of madness, never thinking Kiana could love him that much!

Yet, disturbingly, deep inside he wasn’t repulsed...

While cursing her, Ethan fiercely bit her lips. Kiana felt pain, likely bitten through...
