The Unstoppable Comeback Of the Unrivaled Ex-Wife-Chapter 385 - 381

"Uhh, Perhaps I went a little too far!" Joanna scratched her head. She was afraid Ace would find an opportunity to take revenge on her. On top of that, he was still recovering. If anything happened to him, she’d be in a lot of trouble.

"Alright. Adie, Abby, go and play on your own. I’ll have to talk to that grudgeful man. Did you see how angry he was? It looked like he’d explode any second!" Joanna made Adie and Abby laugh with her exaggerated description.

Adie shook his head, a speechless expression written over his face. "He’s a lot more different from what I imagined. Why does he seem like an idiot?"

"Not only is he a scaredy cat, but he’s also an idiot. He’s not that terrifying, after all. I must’ve overestimated him!" Adie added.

Joanna smacked him on the head. "You’re just too naive. You’ll find out in time."

At the same time, Joanna squatted and wrapped the caterpillar up with a tissue. She then quickly walked toward the house.

"How are you feeling, Ace?" Joanna gently knocked on his door and asked.

"Still alive! Thanks for your concern," Ace replied in an unfriendly tone before opening the door.

He had just taken a shower. He still had a bathrobe on, and his hair was wet. His tanned skin and solid abs were the perfect personifications of strength and beauty. He was... Absolutely tempting.

Joanna gulped a little. She tried her best not to look where she wasn’t supposed to.

"I didn’t mean to drop the insect on you. Don’t be mad. The doctor said you shouldn’t get upset. Otherwise, you’ll faint again!"

"You didn’t mean to?" Ace sneered. He suddenly grabbed her wrist and pressed it against her own chest. "Can you swear on your conscience that you didn’t mean to do it?"

With this movement, his already loose bathrobe revealed even more of his skin. His solid abs were fully visible at this point.

Joanna didn’t realize it, but her hand was beginning to itch. She felt an urge to touch his abs and see if they were real!

"What are you looking at?" Ace could sense Joanna’s gaze, and he actually seemed a little embarrassed. He quickly adjusted his bathrobe to make sure he wasn’t exposed.

Even men couldn’t be completely safe these days. He needed to protect himself!

"Uhh, about that... I really didn’t mean to do it. I didn’t know you were actually afraid of caterpillars!" Joanna quickly looked away. She then circled around him and slipped into his bedroom. "Since it’s already happened, I’ve decided to make it up to you. Otherwise, I won’t be able to forgive myself."

"Make it up to me?" Ace was angry at first, but he immediately felt better after hearing what she said.

He crossed his arms and raised his brows. "How are you going to do that?"

If her ’making up to him’ was good enough, he could forgive her for now!

"Are you... in pain?" Joanna looked Ace up and down. Her face was red, and she sounded a little troubled.

"Somewhat." Ace gave an ambiguous reply.

Her shy demeanor looked to him like she was giving him a hint. In other words, it was an invitation.

He felt that he was still able to do it. His voice immediately turned hoarse. "Can you make me feel better?"

"Of course, I can. Otherwise, I wouldn’t be here." Joanna then pointed at the large bed behind her.

"Lie down. You’ll feel better very soon."

"Right now?"

"When else?" Joanna asked.

Joanna was getting a little anxious. "Stop wasting time. The sooner we do this, the better. If we wait too long, it won’t be effective anymore."

"Erk-hem!" Ace’s face turned even redder.

Hadn’t she always been shy and demure? When did she become this passionate?

Even a grown man like him was finding it a little hard to resist.

However, since she was so ’eager’, there was no reason for him to refuse.

After all, he had been longing for her body for a long time!

"Take off your bathrobe and lie on the bed face-down. That’ll make things easier for me," Joanna said.

"Face-down?" Ace’s heart clenched. He was a little afraid. "Are you sure you want to start with something so extreme?"

"Trust in my technique!" Joanna began giving clear instructions. "Just lie down, keep your arms close to your side, and don’t move around. Bear with the pain. It’ll be over very soon."

"Alright, alright!" Ace took a deep breath. He slowly removed his bathrobe and laid down in bed.

Despite feeling afraid, he looked forward to her ’technique’. She was rarely this passionate.

"I’m going to start now. Bear with me," Joanna said softly.

Although Joanna might seem calm, the redness on her face was enough to prove how panicked she felt.

’Are you kidding me?’

Any heterosexual woman would panic at the sight of such a perfect male body.

Look at those broad shoulders, his lean back, and his slim waist...

Was he really not sculpted according to a woman’s idea of a perfect man?

However, even if she was panicking a little, she still needed to deal with the rashes on his body as soon as possible. Things would get tricky if he had an allergic reaction.

Joanna retrieved the caterpillar, crushed it, and used a cotton swab to smear its bodily fluid against the rashes on Ace’s back.

Ace originally kept his eyes closed. He was looking forward to Joanna’s ’technique’. The sticky sensation on his back made him frown.

Was he... Kissing him?

However, he felt a cotton swab against his back. It didn’t feel like her soft lips!

"What are you doing?"

"Obviously, I’m tending to your rashes!" Joanna was trying to keep herself focused. "You probably didn’t know this, but the caterpillar that stung you today belonged to a family of poisonous moths. You got red rashes from its sting. It can hurt a lot. Fortunately, there’s a cure for this. I’m applying the cure on you now... Don’t you feel better?"

"So that’s what you meant!" Ace suddenly felt a great sense of disappointment. He’d be lying if he said that wasn’t the case.

However, he felt somewhat relieved too.

What if Joanna went a little too far, and he passed out right here? That would be too embarrassing.

"Fine. Go ahead and do it!" Ace closed his eyes and remained lying.

Joanna smeared more of the caterpillar’s fluid on him.

"Oh, right. What kind of cure are you using? It seems to work really well." Ace no longer felt as much pain as before. He asked the question out of curiosity.
