Chapter 165 The Passionate Kiss in the Bathroom

Jacob stopped in his tracks, looking at Avery without saying a word. Apart from the sound of water

flowing, the bathroom was in dead silence.

The hand on Jacob's wrist was warm and damp, and there was tension between the two of them. Content protected by Nôv/el(D)rama.Org.

Avery could only say something she didn't truly mean. "Don't go."

Jacob grabbed her by the chin, his voice cold. "Even now, you're still pleading for him."

Avery felt a sense of frustration. No matter what she said, there was only one thought in Jacob's mind,

and that was she cheated on him.

However, the unfaithful one was Jacob.

Avery felt irritated again. At the thought of Carl's and Randy's youthful faces, she sighed softly.

Then, she stood up from the bathtub and, disregarding her wet body, took the initiative to embrace

Jacob.

The water on her body slowly wet Jacob's white shirt, yet he didn't step away.

Avery held onto him cautiously, gently kissing his Adam's apple with her red lips. Then, she felt him

tensing up.

"Jacob, I didn't cheat on you." Avery's soft voice quivered uncontrollably, lacing with sorrow and

frustration.

Jacob wrapped his arms, which were hanging at his sides, around her body and kissed her

passionately.

Avery frowned.

It had been two years since they had made out with each other. Avery used to love and like to lean

against his chest so much, but now she only felt disgusted when she thought that Jacob had also done

such things with Layla.

Just as Avery reached out to push him away, Jacob's phone rang.

The set ringtone for Layla echoed in the bathroom.

Avery breathed a sigh of relief. She had never found Layla so endearing before.

Jacob wanted to continue, but the ringtone kept echoing in the bathroom like an urging spell.

Annoyed by the disruption, Jacob let go of Avery.

With impatience, Jacob answered the call. Avery didn't know what Layla said, but Jacob frowned

harder and harder and then ended the call in displeasure.

Reaching for the bathrobe hanging nearby, he draped it casually over himself with a little resignation.

"I have to go out for something. Wait for me at home," he said.

Avery felt a wave of relief in her heart after hearing that.

Noticing the hint of joy in her eyes, Jacob added in a solemn tone, "Do not go anywhere!"

Watching his hastened departure, Avery finally relaxed her tense body.

Thank goodness he hadn't managed to have sex with her.

Avery didn't know when it had begun. The man she had once deeply loved now made her nauseous at

the mere touch.

Avery dispensed multiple pumps of body wash.

The bathtub was full of bubbles.

She scrubbed herself repeatedly in the bathtub, ridding every inch of her body touched by Jacob.

The warm water thoroughly soaked her body. Through the misted glass, Avery stared at her blurred

reflection.

She had managed to escape today, but would she be able to escape tomorrow?

Jacob was even more despicable than before.

Back then, he had shunned and hated her, but at least she had been free.

Now, it seemed like Jacob had added a chain to her body and mind.

Avery didn't rise from the water until her skin turned red.

Since she couldn't escape, she had no choice but to press forward.

Avery immediately called Andrew. "Andrew, have you found out anything?"
