Chapter 357
Chapter 357:
Despite their divorce, he still managed to entangle her like this. What on earth did he really want from her?
Determined to resist, Jenessa closed her eyes and tried to bite Ryan’s tongue in a desperate attempt to gain some semblance of control.
But Ryan, anticipating her every move, skilfully dodged her attempts.
His agile tongue continued to tease her, quickly overwhelming Jenessa’s senses and clouding her thoughts.
Overwhelmed, Jenessa instinctively arched her neck back, her excitement causing her eyelashes to flutter uncontrollably.
Ryan’s rough yet gentle hand traced the sensitive skin behind her ear, eliciting a soft moan from Jenessa. Her fragmented sounds only added to the intensity in Ryan’s eyes.
Her laboured breathing echoed in the car, the tension palpable in the heated air.
Jenessa’s cheeks flushed a deep red, the intensity of the kiss almost suffocating her.
Sensing her struggle, Ryan slowly pulled away, his thumb gently wiping the moisture from her lips.
“We’ve done this countless times. When are you going to learn to just breathe?” Ryan’s voice was a hoarse murmur.
“Can you finally tell me the truth p>
Gasping for air, tears welled in Jenessa’s eyes as she met his gaze, her voice failing her.
Ryan’s expression softened as he saw her tears, a flicker of regret crossing his face.
Seeing her so vulnerable and tearful, he found her to be deeply pitiful.
Just as he was about to speak words of comfort, Jenessa gathered her strength and delivered a sharp slap across his face.
The sound of the slap echoed crisply, leaving Ryan’s cheek tingling, his earlier desires extinguished. He was about to respond in anger when he saw the tears streaming down Jenessa’s face.
“How dare you! Even if I still have feelings for you, what right do you have to treat me like this?” Jenessa’s voice was filled with humiliation as she shouted, her tone breaking.
In that instant, Ryan’s anger evaporated.

He never expected Jenessa to burst into tears.
Throughout the long years he had known her, he had hardly ever witnessed such a raw display of her emotions.
Overwhelmed by guilt, he reached out to dry her tears, but Jenessa quickly slapped his hand away.
Suppressing his own rising frustration, he offered an apologetic explanation.
“I’m sorry, I didn’t intend to make you feel humiliated p>
Drying her tears herself, Jenessa fixed him with a serious look.
“Then why did you do that? You’re involved with Maisie, so why do you keep pestering me? Isn’t that too much p>
A pang of constriction hit Ryan’s heart. He was eager to explain that he never loved Maisie.
“She and I p>
But his mind raced back to that morning in the hotel when he woke up to find Maisie unclothed beside him.
He clenched his fists, choosing to remain silent.
As time slowly passed, Jenessa regained her composure and ceased crying.
She looked straight ahead with an icy gaze, uttering not a word.
Ryan inhaled deeply and made a soft promise.
“If it upsets you, I won’t bother you again. But, Jenessa, why do you keep avoiding me? Despite our divorce, can’t we try to be friends p>
Jenessa’s response was a scornful laugh.
“Do you really think someone like me is fit to be friends with you, the great Mr. Haynes p>
