Chapter 988: Chapter 508: Extra: Mr. Jones Needs to Exercise More_2

Skyler Jones let out a sigh and turned around.

Seeing Skyler Jones’s back as he turned to leave, Christine Quinn finally snuck out a smile.

He’d had her completely wrapped around his finger all my life; there was no way she was going to let him stay on top forever...

Of course she wasn’t planning to put him on a no-sex ban all my life, but she was absolutely going to scare him half to death. Who told him to keep breaking her heart before.

If Christine thought Skyler would just walk away willingly, then she was dead wrong, because just as Skyler walked to the door, the lights in the room suddenly dimmed.

Christine hadn’t even reacted to what was going on when the guy who’d just turned off the lights shot onto the bed at lightning speed and quickly pinned his wife beneath him.

"Ah—" Christine screamed in shock.

But he had already pinned down Christine’s flailing hands, bringing himself right up against his sweet wife with zero distance between them.

Feeling the heat in his breath, Christine’s chest heaved violently with nerves. She stared at him with those big innocent eyes, not even daring to breathe too loudly, and whispered, "You... what are you trying to do?"

Skyler pinned Christine’s hands above her head on the headboard. In the dark, his sly, wicked eyes were shining unusually bright as his magnetic voice slipped out, "Won’t let me kiss you, huh?"

Christine froze.

Skyler had already lowered his head and planted a hard kiss on Christine’s lips.

His thin lips were so scorching hot, it was like they were burning her soft, rosy mouth.

Christine was furious and embarrassed. "Hey..."

In the faint light, all she could see was that handsome face acting completely shameless with zero gentlemanly manners.

Skyler buried his face in Christine’s neck again and started placing light kisses...

This was exactly what Christine couldn’t handle the most—Skyler getting all close like this...

Because with his skill, every single time he could make her lose all resolve.

Christine hunched her shoulders, trying to dodge his touch, but his thin lips, carrying that burning breath, brushed lightly over her neck, making her heart start to go a little wild too...

He kept teasing her...

From her neck to her collarbone, then further down...

Even if she was getting really into it from his kissing, she still couldn’t just give in to him...

No way...

The voice of resolve rang in her heart. Christine used every bit of strength in her body and unexpectedly pried open Skyler’s grip that had been holding her hands so tightly, then shoved him away with a hard push...

Skyler obviously hadn’t expected this little thing to suddenly explode with that much strength; he almost got pushed right off the bed...

Pulling her messy clothes back into place, Christine huffed at the man who was about to move in again, "If you come any closer, I’m gonna scream!"

Sitting on the bed and hearing what Christine said, Skyler crossed his arms over his chest and lazily drawled, "Go ahead and scream... The family will just think we’re a loving couple. No one’s coming to save you."

Was this really the same calm, serious President Jones he usually was in front of everyone?

Right now he was clearly a wolf, and a shameless, cheating wolf at that.

Christine shrank back against the headboard and could only glare at him hard. "You’re awful!!"

Skyler’s lips curled. He reached out, scooped Christine into his arms, rested his chin against her smooth forehead, and his low voice slipped out, "Baby, you can punish me however you want, just not with this..."

Christine suddenly started sobbing in grievance.

Skyler, who had absolutely not expected Christine to cry, was instantly startled. He hurriedly cupped her delicate, beautiful face. "What’s wrong, baby?"

Christine deliberately sniffled, pretending to choke on her words as she said, "You said you wanted me to forgive you, but you’re not showing any sincerity at all... If you really loved me, then even if I couldn’t fulfill my wifely duties with you, you’d still love me just the same..."

Skyler tenderly kissed Christine’s forehead and spoke softly, "Wifey, if you really couldn’t fulfill your wifely duties, of course I’d still love you just like I do now. But right now we can..."

"No, we can’t!!" Christine insisted. "I never said I forgave you, so you can’t do this."

The thing Skyler really couldn’t handle was Christine’s eyes turning misty with tears, looking all pitiful, because that made his heart ache like crazy.

In the end, Skyler could only choose to compromise. "Okay... I promise you, I’ll wait until you forgive me, alright?"

Christine sniffled, signaling that her mood had improved a little, then nodded.

Only then did Skyler finally let out a breath, smiled, and pulled Christine into his arms. "Then I’ll stay here and sleep with you tonight!"

"No!"

"Why not?"

"Who knows if you’ll behave yourself in the middle of the night."

Skyler immediately raised his hand like he was taking an oath. "I swear I definitely won’t lay a hand on you."

"No way!!" Christine still refused. She knew exactly how good he was at playing dirty... If she really let him stay, she could forget about getting a good night’s sleep!

"Christine..."

"Just go already... I’m so sleepy, I want to go to bed." Christine kept pushing at the man hugging her tightly.

The man’s sharp mind quickly weighed the pros and cons...

Given this little woman’s temper, if he stayed and tried anything, she’d definitely end up resenting him. But if he really just held her and slept, the one who’d be suffering would probably be him...

So...

Skyler had already thought of the perfect way to handle this.

He could only wrong himself and "go hungry" for a couple days first...

"Alright then..." Skyler chose to compromise. "Since I promised you, I’ll stick to my word..."

Christine nodded like a little pecking chick. "Mm, mm, mm."

Skyler placed a light kiss on the top of Christine’s hair, then said in a pitiful tone, "I’ll go back to my room and sleep then... Sigh, my neck is definitely gonna be stiff again tomorrow."

Christine deliberately didn’t comfort him at all, giving him zero chance to go back on his word.

Skyler then irritably jumped off the bed, grabbed the back of her head, stole another hard kiss, and only then let go and left the room.

Watching Skyler leave all sulky, Christine’s smile bloomed all over her face.

The next day.

Christine was in the bathroom washing up when a knock suddenly sounded on the door.

She could tell from the urgent knocking that it wasn’t Skyler. With her toothbrush still in her mouth, Christine went to open the door.

Sure enough, it wasn’t Skyler at the door, but Rebecca Quentin. 𝑓𝘳𝘦𝑒𝑤𝑒𝘣𝘯ℴ𝘷𝘦𝓁.𝑐𝑜𝑚

Christine froze for a moment, speaking around the toothbrush in her mouth, her words muffled, "Becca, what’s wrong?"

Rebecca Quentin rushed into the room and immediately shut the door. "Sis, I need a favor."

"What is it?"
