Dangerous Love: You Are My One and Only Bride novel Chapter 530

She cleaned out a few cheap and simple vases and arranged the flowers in them. She needed four vases to hold all the roses. It gave the shop a touch of glamor.

Tanya was green with envy. “Who’s it from? They’re so pretty, and there are so many of them. They must be expensive. Just a small bouquet would cost at least $15. These flowers are from the biggest flower shop in the city, and it’s a franchise too. It must have been expensive.”

Arianne was in a much better mood, thanks to the flowers. She sniffed. “Who cares?”

...

Back at the hotel.

Tiffany was lying on the bed, fast asleep. Jackson was next to her, fiddling his phone. He would glare at her resentfully from time to time. She had complained about needing a nap when they returned from lunch and actually went to sleep. They had not seen each other for days, and when they finally did, they had a quarrel. Was this not the best time to cultivate their relationship? How could she go to sleep at a time like this?

He was losing interest in his phone so he lay down and tried to pull her into his arms. Unfortunately, her sleeping position was not suitable for him to hold her. He tried a few times but gave up in the end. However, he still placed his hand on her waist. He did not dare to put too much pressure for fear of making her uncomfortable so his touch was incomparably gentle.

Every time he touched her, he would feel an all-consuming itch and would soon instinctively begin indulging in his desire.

Tiffany was not a sound sleeper. She turned her body and put her leg on his body. He stiffened. Her actions lifted her skirt, putting her fair and smooth thighs on display. This was too enticing for him. He was at his prime, and he would not be a man if he could resist this temptation! However, she was still sleeping so he could only suppress his impulses, making him feel a little empty. He never used to care if his female companion was sleeping or not.

Tiffany slowly began to wake up when she turned around in bed. However, she was still bleary from sleep. When she felt his hands roaming around her body, she instinctively chose to act as though she was still sleeping. They just had a fight this morning. Although they had talked about it, she still had not gotten over it. There were still things weighing her down so she was at a loss…

Suddenly, Jackson’s hand accidentally brushed against her waist. She was ticklish so she instinctively tried to avoid him. She moved too fast, completely unlike someone who was sleeping.

Jackson stiffened. Then, he cautiously asked in a husky voice, “Are you up?”

She could no longer keep up her pretense. She moved her leg off him. “Mm… I’m going to nap for a little while longer…”

He was already going stir-crazy from waiting for her to get up. Why would he let her continue napping? “Stop sleeping or you won’t be able to sleep tonight…” Then, he moved on top of her. Just as he was about to kiss her on the lips, she turned her face away.

He fell silent for a few seconds and asked, “You just don’t feel like doing it, right? Is this temporary?”

She stared at him and nodded in confirmation. “Mm.”

He heaved a sigh of relief, reached out, and stroked her hair. “Okay, okay. Get ready and I’ll come with you to the shop.”

Tiffany instinctively refused. “There’s no need for that. I’ll go on my own. You must be very busy, don’t waste your time at the shop. The kitchen is extremely hot. You won’t be able to stand it. We’ll have dinner tonight. I’ll call you.”

Jackson did not insist. It was true he had some work to do this afternoon.

...

When Tiffany arrived, there were quite a few customers in the shop. She put on her apron and entered the kitchen immediately. To be honest, the air conditioner was usually turned on in the kitchen because the desserts had to be stored at a certain temperature once they were done. If it were not for this, Arianne probably would not be able to bear using the air conditioner in the kitchen.
