In My Mind In His World

Chapter 0023

His bold actions caused goosebumps to erupt all over my skin. The warmth of his touch made me pull my leg back quickly, but he caught my ankle.

He pressed down harder, and our bodies meshed. He looked down at me and said, “Too bad I missed out on your sexy lingerie.”C0ntent © 2024 (N/ô)velDrama.Org.

His sudden sensuality overwhelmed me. I blushed so much that I resembled a cooked lobster.

“Let go!” I tried to kick him with my other foot.

But he caught it and said teasingly, “You didn’t say that last night.”

He kissed me and flirted with me unabashedly. Unfortunately, I couldn’t keep holding back my feelings for him. Upon taking a critical hit like this, all the affection I tried so hard to withhold broke free and poured forth.

Even though I knew he didn’t love me, I was powerless against his advances. I fell deeper into the abyss despite being fully aware of the consequences. I felt aggrieved and was on the verge of an emotional breakdown.

I covered my mouth with my hand and closed my eyes. I tried to maintain my composure and blurted, “I want a divorce.”

“Go ahead and try, then.” He kissed the inside of my palm and licked it inch by inch. “If you succeed, it’s my loss.”

I used to be infatuated with his minty scent. If this were the past, I would have gotten aroused to the point of wanting to plant hickeys on his neck. But now, I could push him away.

without hesitation.

“Let’s have a mature conversation about this, Nicholas. We’re both adults. Do you take me for a fool? The girl you raised has become a woman.

“You allowed her to get close to you without setting any boundaries. You even showed her a gentle side of yourself that I’ve never experienced. Why can’t you be honest and come clean with me?”

He kissed me again. “Don’t bring her up. You’re ruining the mood.”

I tried to resist his advances, but it felt like I was wrestling someone above my weight class. “No! We have to address this. now!”

“She’s just my sister. It’s been this way for years,” Nicholas replied exasperatedly.

“You don’t even have the guts to admit it. You coward!” I countered.

Nicholas‘ voice was hoarse and tinged with anger. “Then, what do you want me to do?”

“I want a divorce!” I repeated firmly. After saying that, my throat felt constricted like I was being strangled. I couldn’t utter another syllable; I was almost suffocating.

Nicholas was silent for a few seconds. He sounded almost self -deprecating as he said, “You love me so much, but you’re still insisting on divorcing me. Shouldn’t you be content already when I said you could bear my child?”

I nodded and replied weakly, “Giving birth to a child is painful and arduous. Do you know how much a woman would have to love a man to want to have his child?”

Now… I was no longer willing to do that.

This time, he didn’t press further. With a dismissive wave, he refused to talk about anything related to love.

I watched his back as he walked out of my room. Then, I heard the sound of the smart lock opening and closing, which signaled his departure. There was finally some peace and quiet.

Even now, I couldn’t understand what he thought of me. I was starving and ordered takeout. While I was waiting for my to arrive, Mom’s calls kept coming in.

I didn’t want to answer them, but she was relentless. Moreover,

I feared something bad might have happened to her. Despite our conflict the previous day, I was still worried about her.

Over the phone, my mom forbade me from contacting Nelson ever again. I agreed as I realized that there might be old grudges I wasn’t aware of. However, I stood firm on my decision to divorce Nicholas.

My mom was so angry that she disowned me and hurled an

endless stream of harsh words to berate me. I listened numbly with a blank expression.

I spent three days in a daze in my apartment before Yasmine barged in and dragged me to Jay Caldwell & Co. to meet her idol, Silas Harmon.
