Wedding Night: My Disabled Husband Made Me Cry-Chapter 26: My Lips Are Going to Be Kissed Swollen
The man slammed his chopsticks on the dining table.
The maids waiting on them were terrified, and they all lowered their heads. Even Easton Rivers grew tense.
Vivian Quinn jumped. "Why are you suddenly so angry? How am I supposed to get along with you like this?"
Jett Sterling closed his eyes, said nothing, and left.
Vivian Quinn ignored him. After finishing breakfast, she went back to her room, took a shower, and lay down to catch up on sleep.
’What happened last night was her fault for being careless. She hadn’t expected them to resort to such a devious trick as drugging her.’
’Once she found out who was behind it, she would definitely get her revenge!’
...
In the study next door, Jett Sterling felt a suffocating frustration churning in his chest.
He held a document in his hands and stared at it for half an hour without turning a single page.
After a long while, the man finally couldn’t help but ask, "Where’s Mrs. Sterling? Isn’t she planning to come and apologize?"
Standing to the side and barely daring to breathe, Easton Rivers answered timidly, "Mrs. Sterling... she seems to have... gone to sleep..."
SMACK!
Jett Sterling threw the document onto his desk. "She can sleep?"
Easton Rivers gulped, terrified. "Master Sterling, it seems Mrs. Sterling doesn’t understand why you’re angry at all..."
Jett Sterling’s handsome face was as dark as a thundercloud. He suddenly clutched his hair in agony.
"Master Sterling, you’re having an episode!" Easton Rivers said urgently. "I’ll go get Mrs. Sterling!"
Vivian Quinn was sleeping soundly when she was startled awake by a series of frantic knocks. Just as she was about to demand who it was, she heard Easton Rivers’s anxious voice, "Mrs. Sterling, it’s bad! Master Sterling is having an episode! Please, you have to come quick!"
Vivian Quinn shot up, grabbed her silver needles from the nightstand drawer, and ran to the room next door without even putting on her slippers.
The man behind the desk had a pained expression. Vivian Quinn rushed to his side. "Jett Sterling, hang in there! I’ll administer the needles right away."
The next second, her wrist was grabbed. Before she could react, she was pulled into the man’s embrace.
"What are you doing?" Vivian Quinn looked at him. His complexion was normal, and he wasn’t breaking out in a cold sweat. He was obviously faking it. "You tricked me! You... Mmph..."
She had just started to speak when the man’s handsome face suddenly filled her vision, his thin lips pressing against hers.
The rest of Vivian Quinn’s words were caught in her throat. She felt an electric current travel from their touching lips through her entire body.
Vivian Quinn’s eyes widened. Her hands were frozen, and she didn’t know how to react.
The man closed his eyes. One arm wrapped around her slender waist, while the other cupped the back of her head, deepening the kiss.
Vivian Quinn felt all the strength drain from her body with each breath, as if the man were emptying her out bit by bit. Her heart was beating so fast it felt like it would burst from her chest!
The man alternated between plundering and slowing down, giving her space to breathe, and didn’t forget to remind her in a low voice, "Breathe."
Vivian Quinn snapped back to her senses and quickly pushed against his chest. Although she couldn’t escape his embrace, she finally broke the kiss.
The girl’s face was so red it looked like it might bleed. "What are you doing?"
"I’m kissing you. Can’t you tell?"
Vivian Quinn was both embarrassed and angry. "Who gave you permission to force a kiss on me?!"
"I’m your husband. What’s wrong with kissing you?"
"...You still need my permission!"
"You were enjoying it just now."
Vivian Quinn: "..."!!!
"Pah! Who was enjoying it!"
The man corrected himself. "I was enjoying it."
The moment he kissed her, the frustration in his heart miraculously vanished.
Vivian Quinn glared at him, her cheeks puffed out in anger. "You faked an episode to trick me into coming here, and then you forced a kiss on me!"
"You made me angry first."
"What did I do to make you angry?"
"You don’t seem to realize what it means to be Mrs. Sterling."
Vivian Quinn: "..."
It slowly dawned on her. "Is it because I said I’d pay you back?"
"Yes."
Vivian Quinn blurted out, "But I think it’s the right thing to do."
The man’s gaze darkened. Without another word, he kissed her again...
"Mmph..." Vivian Quinn was going crazy. She could clearly feel that this kiss was even more frenzied than the last one!
"Jett... Jett Sterling, you... stop..." Vivian Quinn struggled with all her might, but the man was resolute and held her fast.
There was a huge difference in strength between them. Vivian Quinn couldn’t break free at all and could only endure his domineering kiss.
After what felt like an eternity, just as she felt she was about to drown in his embrace, the man finally let her go.
Vivian Quinn gasped for fresh air, feeling as if she had been reborn.
Jett Sterling stared at her with a heavy gaze. "Do you know what you did wrong now?"
Vivian Quinn: "..."
’So that kiss just now... was it a punishment?’
’This man is despicable!’
"Mrs. Sterling, you haven’t answered my question," the man pressed.
Vivian Quinn nearly rolled her eyes. "I know."
"Tell me."
"I shouldn’t have said I’d pay you back. I shouldn’t have been so distant with you."
Jett Sterling opened a desk drawer, took out a black card, and placed it in Vivian Quinn’s hand. "Take it. Spend as much as you want."
Vivian Quinn couldn’t help but laugh. "Is this the legendary black card the domineering male lead gives the heroine in novels?"
Jett Sterling: "..."
"This is real life, not a novel."
"Okay, okay, I said the wrong thing again." ’She was terrified he would kiss her again. If this kept up, her lips would be swollen!’
Jett Sterling noticed she was wearing pajamas. "You really did go to sleep?"
"My head is a little dizzy, and my stomach hurts a bit too."
"It’s probably a side effect of the drug. I’ll sleep with you."
"Th-That’s not necessary, is it?"
The man narrowed his eyes. "I was at the hospital taking care of you all night. Are you telling me I can’t catch up on some sleep now?"
Vivian Quinn gulped. "You can, of course you can!"
The two returned to the master bedroom, and Vivian Quinn was soon pulled into the man’s arms.
’In her heart, she actually considered herself a traditional girl. She wasn’t used to physical contact with the opposite sex—in fact, she was usually resistant to it.’
’But now... she wasn’t sure if it was because Jett Sterling was her first man, or because they were already married, but she didn’t seem to resist his touch.’
’Whether it was hugging or kissing, she was nervous, but she wasn’t resistant.’
’Vivian Quinn found this quite surprising. After all, her body’s reactions couldn’t lie.’
"What are you thinking about?" the man’s deep voice suddenly sounded. "If you can’t sleep, we could do something else... more meaningful."
