Conquest Game: The Aloof Husband is Dangerous!-Chapter 203 - 182: I Miss You

At that moment, the woman’s rosy lips were glistening, and there seemed to be crystal-clear saliva at the corners of her mouth, making Jason Hawthorne’s gaze even more fiery.

Laura Quincy shook off his hand indignantly, "If you keep this up, don’t come to my house again!"

Jason Hawthorne wrapped his arms around her waist, his voice hoarse as he whispered in her ear, "I’ve missed you..."

She had heard a saying before: some men’s voices are enough to make a woman feel pregnant. Laura truly experienced the meaning of this now.

She turned her face away, "You’re sleeping on the couch!"

Then, she turned around to leave. Even though she had decided to come back, she couldn’t surrender so easily!

Jason Hawthorne wouldn’t let her leave so easily. He stepped forward and embraced her waist from behind, "Laura, stay with me a bit longer. I’ve really missed you..."

His hot breath spilled over her ear, causing her to shiver...

Laura wanted to struggle, but then she heard him say, "I didn’t dare call or message you these past few days, just fearing I’d hear you reject me. I thought you’d made your choice by going to Norcastle..."

Hearing this, Laura’s movements paused.

"When I got home after work today, the servants said you took Twinkle out to play. I was so happy, really, you’re finally back."

His earnest confession left Laura a bit speechless. This man recently loved using tender attacks, making her almost lose her ability to think normally!

"...You go wash up first."

After thinking for a long time, Laura could only say these words.

Jason shook his head, "No, I just want to hold you quietly, to feel that you’re really here, that you haven’t left me."

Laura felt indescribable emotions, a mix of feelings...

"I..."

Before she could speak, Jason suddenly turned her body around and forcefully kissed her lips...

Laura instantly became alert. Although her body’s reaction was honest, she still felt some resistance...

"I’m going back to my room..."

With that, she pushed away from Jason’s hot embrace and fled back to her room.

As she closed the door, she felt her heart about to jump out of her chest, unable to resist reaching up to pat her face. What had happened to her just now?

Had she been enchanted?

How could she allow him to... do that?

If he hadn’t asked her, would something have happened...

She pinched herself hard, took a deep breath, and walked to the bed to lie down. It was too dangerous!

Could she avoid him tonight, and all future nights?

Meanwhile, outside, although Jason hadn’t gotten what he wished for, he could tell from Laura’s reaction that her resistance against him had lessened.

This was a good thing!

He believed that Laura’s heart was slowly leaning toward him.

The only regret was that he would once again have trouble sleeping tonight.

Sigh...

The following evening.

Jason made a special trip back to the old house, and as soon as he entered, his father called him to the study.

During this time, the servants heard the sound of cups being thrown and the old man’s furious roars from the study, indicating a very intense confrontation inside!

Eleanor Ford was anxiously waiting outside, afraid that her husband would resort to corporal punishment in anger; after all, even at over thirty, if he got whipped by his father, it would be so shameful!

Older brother Wade Hawthorne and second brother Wyatt Hawthorne also got wind of the situation, each secretly amused, as they always enjoyed a good show.

Serena Jennings was full of excitement, "Dad, I think we can spread this news to the top executives at the company. I’m sure it will be more powerful than any argument!"

Wade Hawthorne beamed, "Serena is very thoughtful! Once the news of our fourth brother being scolded by father spreads, those who supported him before will surely be in turmoil, which is greatly beneficial to us!"

Serena nodded, "Exactly! This saves the trouble of convincing people one by one. Now, in this age of the internet, rumors spread like a flood; they can’t be underestimated!"

Jasper Hawthorne chimed in suddenly, "Dad, do you really think Uncle would sacrifice the position he worked his entire life for just because of a woman?"

Wade looked at his son, "What do you mean by that?"

Jasper furrowed his brows, "I’m just wondering, is it going too smoothly?"

Serena quickly jumped in, "I’ve considered that too. I was also skeptical that Uncle would openly expose his weaknesses like this, but have you noticed? His assistant, Mason Cross, has been very active with the company executives lately, showing that he’s also afraid."

Pausing, she looked at her husband, "And besides, you can’t underestimate the power of a woman! Didn’t King Aurelius ignite beacons for Helen’s laughter? And Brandon Reid turned against his adoptive father, Dominic Donovan, for Diao Chan... These are all classic examples of heroes defeated by beauties."

Wade clapped in agreement, "Serena is absolutely right! Of course, we can’t be careless; your third uncle has always been scheming and bringing him down indeed requires careful effort."

Serena added, "Dad, don’t forget, we still have a card to play: the fact that Laura is Jasper’s ex-girlfriend."

Hearing this, Jasper couldn’t help but frown. He hated when Serena dragged him into things...

Wade nodded, "That’s right! This card must be played at the right time, or it’ll be wasted."

Serena smiled triumphantly, "Dad, don’t worry! I know what I’m doing, I definitely won’t let this card go to waste."

Jason was pulled aside by his mother as soon as he came out of his father’s study, and she quietly asked, "Jason, are you okay? Your dad..."

Just then, Angus came out with a face full of anger, "Get out!"

Eleanor mockingly whined, "Honey, Jason he..."

Angus shouted sternly, "Can’t you hear me?"

Eleanor wanted to say something but swallowed it whole...

Jason instead comforted his mother, "Mom, I’m fine. I can handle it. Take care of yourself."

Before leaving, he didn’t forget to tell his father, "Dad, calm down and take care of your health! I’m leaving now."

Angus snorted coldly, clearly still not over his anger.

Everything was overheard by Wade and Wyatt. Lately, they’ve been spending money to bribe the old house’s servants just to get this information and take action.

The old man’s rage, hitting the fourth brother, secretly pleased Wade and Wyatt, and they simultaneously thought: The fourth brother had it coming today!

Eleanor didn’t dare upset her husband anymore and could only shed tears in private, filled with hatred towards Laura. It was all this woman’s fault, turning a perfectly good family into such a mess!

After leaving the Hawthorne Family, Jason went directly to Laura’s small living room. Just as he entered, he saw Justin and Laura each holding a remote control playing games.

The two of them were highly coordinated, and the atmosphere was especially good.

Jason, a bit jealous, said, "Twinkle, it’s nine-thirty, aren’t you going to bed?"

Justin glanced at his dad, stuck out his tongue, "Daddy, are you jealous I’m hogging sister?"

Jason’s face was awkward, was it that obvious?

The little brat! Not giving his dad any face at all!

Laura pretended not to hear and continued playing the game. She wished Twinkle could always be here, otherwise being alone with Jason would be just like last night...

Awkward yet ambiguous!

Jason gave his son a look, and Justin immediately said, "Sister, let’s play one last round! The loser takes a shower first, okay?"

Laura nodded, "Mm."

Jason felt like he was going to cough up blood; his son completely twisted his meaning on purpose!

Having no choice, he could only sit on the sofa and wait for them to finish this game round. The burning pain from his back made him uncomfortable, so he simply went out to the balcony to smoke.

It seemed that only nicotine could slightly relieve his pain...

As soon as he finished a cigarette, he heard his son’s voice from the living room, "Sister, I’m going to shower now!"

His voice seemed deliberately loud, as if he feared his dad outside couldn’t hear.

Laura saw through his intentions clearly and could only roll her eyes at him. Twinkle had been growing up with his dad, and he was thinking of helping his dad pursue her...

Fine! Let nature take its course!

Jason finished his cigarette and came back in, "The little rascal went to shower?"

Laura nodded, "Aren’t you going to help him?"

Jason shook his head, "No need, he’s almost six, he should have learned to be independent by now."

Laura was speechless, six is clearly very young, but he made it sound so grown.

"Then I’ll go help him. My bathroom is too small, I’m afraid Twinkle isn’t used to it."

With that, she got up and headed toward the bathroom; being alone with that certain man is somewhat... dangerous.

Jason wanted to be alone with her, so how could he let her leave, reaching out to hold her, "Laura, don’t go." 𝙛𝒓𝓮𝒆𝔀𝒆𝙗𝓷𝒐𝙫𝒆𝙡.𝒄𝓸𝓶

The result——

When Laura fell, her hand just happened to press on his chest, forcing Jason to lean sharply against the sofa, just pulling on his back wound...

He hissed in pain!

Laura noticed his exaggerated expression and pouted, "You’re just pretending!"

Jason frowned, "It really hurts."

Laura snorted, "Am I that heavy?"

Saying that, she struggled to get up to leave...

Jason held her down, "I have a wound on my back."

Laura repeated incredulously, "You have a wound on your back?"

Jason stared at her steadily, "I might need you to help treat it."
