Chapter 499 Jealous Kiss

    Chapter 499 Jealous Kiss

    Lily had no idea what was running through Simon’s head.

    To her, he was just a weirdo. After being scolded, he suddenly touched his own lips -there was no way she’d connect that to anything romantic.

    But James, watching the way Simon’s face flushed as red as if it were bleeding, had a good idea of what it meant.

    His expression grew colder, his voice like ice. “Get out. Or do you want me to call Uncle to drag you back myself?”

    That night in the bathroom, when he’d punished Lily because of Elsa, his elders had nearly beaten him half to death. His grandfather and father had bothid into him, and he’d almoste away with broken legs.

    If his cousin really called his father here now, he’d never escape another round of brutal punishment. And with Elsa calling to cry about not wanting to live anymore, Simon felt hollowed out, soulless. He turned and left.

    He had to find John–make sure John took good care of Elsa.

    Because to him, Elsa was just a sister. He could never marry her.

    With the bothersome fly driven out/and still five wedding dresses left to try, Lily naturally kept going.

    The second gown was covered in smooth, lustrous pearls. The way the pearls caught the light was like isoft /imoonlight. James didn’t even need to see her in it to know she’d look stunning.

    When she stepped into the spacious fitting roomrge as a bedroom–the two attendants carrying the dress started to follow her in. James stopped them.

    “I’ll bring it to her.”

    This bridal shop was part of Nancy’s brand, and James was the son of their owner. Of course, they didn’t dare refuse him. They handed him the gown respectfully.

    Inside, Lily had just taken off her veil.

    Hearing footsteps, she assumed it was the staff and spoke warmly. “Could you unzip the back for me? I…”

    No one touched the zipper.

    Instead, a hot, firm hand pressed against the bare skin of her back.

    She jumped in shock.

    Before she could say anything, his burning, possessive kiss crashed onto her lips.

    “James, don’t…”

    Her breath was stolen before she could finish. Lily wanted to cry from sheer exasperation.

    At night he kissed her, in the morning he kissed her, before meals, after meals…

    He’d already kissed her endlessly that morning–how was he still not done?

    She struggled to move her lips enough to protest, her voice trembling. “You… be good… mmph…”

    But the more she begged him to behave, the less he listened.

    If she asked him to be gentle, he became fiercer.

    Her voice quivered as she tried again. “There are people outside, they’ll hear…”

    “They wouldn’t dare listen!”

    James had no intention of stopping.

    The staff knew better. The moment he took the gown, the manager had already dismissed them from the lounge. Now the two of them were shut away in the inner fitting room–no one outside could hear a thing.

    Lily was speechless.

    Even if no one was right next to them, kissing in a public shop still made her

    ufortable.

    She was about to coax him into waiting until they got home when she heard his voice, rough and tinged with insecurity.

    “Lily, you once wanted so badly to marry John, you even sewed your own wedding dress for him…”

    So that was why he wouldn’t stop kissing her–he was jealous again.

    Why was he always so jealous?

    All because of that wretched John!

    She didn’t dare confess that back then, when she’d been full of joy preparing for her wedding to John, she hadn’t just sewn a dress. She’d even hand–stitched a suit for him.

    But instead of wearing it to marry her, he’d worn it to wed Elsa in a grand, romantic ceremony.

    So she could only offer James a guilty littlefort. “I was too young back then. I mistook a little warmth for love.”

    “I could make a gown myself, for o

    wedding…”

    Every time James heard about the things she’d once done for John, his heart ached and soured.

    But if his chest ached, the solution was simple: kiss her more. He could never bear to let her exhaust herself sewing anything again.

    He pressed her tighter, deepening the kiss with reckless abandon. “Sewing a dress by hand would be too hard on you. Leave things like that to others.”

    Too hard on her…

    Lily’s eyes suddenly stung.

    It was true–how could it ever be the same with different people?

    To some, everything she gave was taken for granted, even used to court someone

    else.

    But to others, her effort was precious–something they’d rather spare her from, just so she wouldn’t suffer.

    Even if she still felt awkward about kissing in the fitting room, that warmth in her eyes sank deep into her heart. And with that warmth, she found herself unable to push him away.
