Uncovering My Wife's Secrets

Chapter 75 A Boy’s Desire To Become A Man

Annalise was initially in a bad mood after being asked by Julian in an interrogative tone.

Yet, looking at how he was at this moment, her heart suddenly beat faster.

Was he jealous?

He looked so childish when he was jealous.

It was very adorable too!

His true nature had been revealed again.

Recalling that she had been in a relationship with Benjamin for more than a year, Benjamin never seemed to be

jealous.

Perhaps it was because she had never been this distracted before, so there was no reason for him to be jealous.

Or perhaps, it was because he thought that he was outstanding enough and that she, Annalise Barton, was not a

match for him, so he would not be jealous.

The more she wondered about it, the faster her heartbeat became.

A gifted person like Julian Parks would actually be jealous over a brief conversation she had with another

man.

It was unbelievable.

It was satisfying as well.

He saw her with importance, a person with outstanding qualities. He was afraid that others might snatch her away,

justifying why he became jealous.

She gently responded to his kiss and instantly felt like everything was wonderful.

Moments of their shared memories kept replaying in her mind.

When they were at Horington, Old Mr. Parks gifted her an expensive bracelet. She almost broke it. Instead of this

bracelet, however, he protected her immediately.

At the Horington auction, he continuously punched Benjamin in the face.

On the way to Jadeborough, he bought her breakfast.

When Samuel was unconscious, he trusted her medical skills unconditionally.

At present, Jessy slandered her. He immediately took revenge.

She could not think any further. Any further, she would feel extremely touched and moved.

They had not known each other for long, but he had never underestimated her.

Even in the past, when he had no knowledge about her medical skills, he never once looked down on her.

Until this moment, he was still being considerate despite the jealousy.

Julian felt Annalise’s response and went crazy. His gentle kiss suddenly turned hasty.

His breathing became heavier.

His voice was low and hoarse. “Annie…”

He gazed upon her passionately. “…It’s a little hard to bear.”

Her face instantly turned red.

She knew what he was talking about, but they had only known each other for over half a month.

He looked at her helplessly with his thumb reaching to caress her face.

In this place, they could still hear sounds from the banquet.

Jessy was apologizing publicly. She confessed that she had said something wrong on a whim. She actually had no

understanding of Annalise’s situation at all. She only knew that Annalise came from Horington. Everything else was

just her sprouting nonsense.

She was smart enough to grasp the focus of this public apology. She did not dare mention the word abortion,

fearing that everyone would think nonsensically again.

Upon hearing Jessy’s apology, Annalise’s heart swayed.

She knew that this was the result of Julian’s protectiveness over her. Otherwise, a woman like Jessy would never

apologize publicly.

Just how much was Jessy looking down on her? She even dared to insult her right in the face.

“Thank you!” She thanked Julian.

Julian pointed at his face.

Annalise blushed as she kissed Julian on the cheek.

Julian suddenly grabbed Annalise by her waist and pulled her into his arms.

He looked down at her passionately and asked, “Annie, how do you feel about me?”

“You’re good,” Annalise said immediately.

“What else?” Julian kept his eyes fixed on Annalise’s as he asked.

“You’re very handsome,” Annalise added.

When she finished her words, her face was already red with her heartbeat increased.

“What else?” Julian was not satisfied with the responses.

Annalise gazed upon Julian and continued, “You’re very kind and filial.”

“What else?” Julian stared more intently.

Couldn’t she say that she liked him?

“I’ll discover more of your strengths eventually,” Annalise said.

Julian tapped his index finger on Annalise’s chest, right where the heart was located. “Am I here?”

Annalise was flustered. The redness on her face spread to her ears instantly.

She was so embarrassed that her entire body froze, not daring to move.

Where did he place his hand at?

“Do you like me a little?” Julian asked.

He looked at her gently with his deep-set eyes.

“Yes,” she replied softly.

As if greatly encouraged, he kissed her lips again.

He pinned her against the wall and clasped her hands above her head…

After a long while, as if he was not satisfied with such a light kiss, he suddenly picked her up.

She instinctively wrapped her arms around his neck.

He looked down at her softly and carried her to the bed.

His kiss swept over her again…

Annalise felt her body temperature rise, and her heartbeat became frantic…

There was a sudden knock on the door.

Julian was unmoved.

Annalise immediately started poking Julian. “Someone’s knocking on the door!”

Julian stood up with his face darkened. He violently opened the door and responded unhappily, “What’s the

matter?”

He was even more displeased to see Jessy. “You’re so amazing!”

For a person to fall at every hurdle only to see her cross the finishing line first.

Jessy stood there quietly.

She trembled a little as she pleaded, “Julian, I… am being sincere about my apology.”

She thought that Julian was not satisfied with her public apology moments ago.

She reviewed her apology carefully and reckoned she had worked hard on it. She had already considered all

aspects of the issue.

She said she only knew that Annalise was a citizen of Horington. She did not know anything else, proving she was

simply spreading rumors.

She could not possibly be confessing that she was just spreading rumors of Annalise having had an abortion. Who

would believe her?

“Anything else?” Julian appeared displeased.

Jessy frowned and said, “Julian, about restoring my reputation…”

Julian interrupted, “I know. You can leave now.”

“I have to go back to school tomorrow though.”

Julian glanced at Jessy coldly before making a call unwillingly. “Think of a way to repair Jessy’s reputation

immediately.”

“Thank you, Julian.” Jessy immediately thanked him with a sigh of relief.

Julian warned, “Don’t look for trouble again. Also, don’t come up to the second floor without my permission.”

“I understand.” Jessy was already depressed.

Previously, she had also talked about Annalise right in front of Julian. She even expressed her disdain towards

Annalise before. He did not do anything back then. Yet, Julian was so ruthless this time. She was speechless.

When Julian returned to his room, Annalise was taking a shower.

Julian listened to the sound of water in the bathroom, and his heart instantly warmed.

He thought, “She went to take a shower… so?”

He quickly went to the guest room next door and showered as well.

He then returned to the bedroom before Annalise finished bathing.

If the atmosphere was good, he reckoned he might be able to receive his reward and become a real man. When

Annalise came out, he looked at her with all gentleness.

Annalise was taken aback.

He was definitely up to no good.

Do not even think about it!

Unless she fell in love with him, she would never engage in anything she should not be doing with him.
