Chapter 1011


    In her panic, Imogen ced her hands on Jasper''s chest to create some distance between them.


    His lips were moving, slightly parted, as if he wanted to deepen the kiss.


    She felt overwhelmed and unable to calm her racing heart. Suddenly, she pushed him away.


    Jasper was pushed to lean back against the sofa. He was a bit disappointed as he gazed at her.


    Imogen flushed as she panted slightly. She took deep breaths before shyly saying, "I kissed you sincerely." Jasper gave a bitter smile and nodded.


    The kiss had been no more than a polite peck. His disappointment stemmed from her pushing him away.


    Imogen asked, "So, you won''t report me?"


    Jasper replied, "Yes."


    "Thank you," Imogen replied before hastily getting off the sofa. With her face flushed, she grabbed herptop and awkwardly rushed to the second floor. She acted as if she wanted to flee the scene.


    Jasper was panting while he was leaning back on the sofa, so he took deep breaths. He stared out the window, trying to calm his frustration and the burning in his chest.


    In the bathroom, Imogen rushed to the mirror. Her face was red, and she looked very flustered.


    What was wrong with her?


    She turned on the tap and sshed her face with cold water, hoping to clear her thoughts.


    It was just a kiss with her husband, yet the effect was overwhelming. The whole situation had made her feel surprisingly flustered.


    Imogene concluded that it was Jasper''s handsomeness that caused her reaction.


    She had always been attracted to good looks, and if he weren''t so handsome, she wouldn''t have impulsively agreed to marry him on their first meeting.

    "Four..."


    "Don''t stay upte working anymore."


    "No! I have to... finish it... It''ll take at least two or three more days... so I have to stay up."

    "Okay," she murmured as she was in a daze.


    After that, the voice faded. She felt her nket being pulled up to her shoulders to cover her.
