Contract Marriage: Let's Make It Real, Mrs. Sterling!-Chapter 314 - 313: Swollen Lips and Broken Skin

Jensen Sterling himself is a very dominant presence, but in his usual interactions with Mia Sutton, he restrained his dominance, his cold-blooded nature, his possessiveness, and his aloofness, all of it.

Afraid of scaring the little girl, afraid she would run away before she wanted to stay by his side willingly.

So he kept suppressing it, perhaps it’s been suppressed for too long, and now it’s all been unleashed.

The whole person is very assertive, and the kisses are intense, leaving no room for avoidance.

Unlike just touching Mia and leaving, he wished he could just take her apart and swallow her whole. 𝗳𝐫𝚎𝗲𝚠𝚎𝗯𝕟𝐨𝘃𝚎𝗹.𝗰𝗼𝗺

Because they both had been drinking, and Mia had drunk a lot, their breaths carried the freshness of alcohol.

Their lips crushed and tangled repeatedly, leaving no space, even flipping over and pinning her directly onto the bed.

The bed in the room is white, Mia’s hair is black, and when she lay on it, the strong contrast of colors hit as a visual shock.

Not sure how long it lasted, maybe just a while, or perhaps so long that Mia felt she couldn’t breathe.

Then she started to resist, reaching out to pat Jensen’s back hard, and when that didn’t work, she bit Jensen in desperation.

Jensen, due to the pain, slowly regained his sanity, seeing the person beneath him, her eyes teary, with a hint of red at the ends.

Accusing him harshly with her gaze.

Just when Jensen thought the girl sobered up and was going to turn against him, Mia spoke: "It hurts."

After two seconds, she spoke again: "Heavy... get off." Her tone still carried a strong nasal sound, pushing him with her hand.

Seeing she was still drunk and just being feisty because he hurt her, Jensen couldn’t help but feel relieved, but also a little empty.

He got up from the bed and sat down, noticed his body, and wrapped Mia on the bed with the blanket, patting her head.

"No more fuss, just sleep."

Then, with a dark face, he went into the bathroom again.

When he came out again, Mia was already asleep.

Mia was already drunk and had been fooling around for quite a while, she was already tired, she fell asleep not long after Jensen went into the bathroom, breathing lightly, her sleeping face serene.

The only thing a little different was probably her vividly red lips, as if painted with fine rouge.

Jensen’s eyes were dim, he slowly reached out and brushed her lips twice, making them even redder.

Jensen lightly licked his lips, still feeling the slight sting from Mia’s earlier bite.

After a while, Jensen withdrew his finger and said, "With teeth so sharp, you must be a cat."

Then he lifted the blanket, lay down, pulled Mia into his arms, lowered his head and kissed her again: "Goodnight, Mia..."

A good night’s dream followed.

Of course, as it turned out, the good night’s dream was only for Jensen.

When she woke up the next day, Mia felt her whole head was about to explode with pain.

This was probably what being drunk felt like.

Moreover, she seemed to have had a dream...

Mia furrowed her brows, using her hands to prop herself up in bed, reached out to tap her head, and moved her lips, then winced in pain, taking a sharp breath: "Hiss~"

What’s going on, why does her mouth hurt so much?

Head hurts, mouth hurts, body hurts, everything hurt.

What did she do last night? Did she have a fight with someone?

Mia leaned against the headboard, rubbing her temples with a hand, trying to recall what exactly she did last night.

She could only remember going to a gathering with Jensen, then drinking, and Mr. Sterling drinking the toast Nolan Sinclair offered her.

After that, everything became fragmented, like Jensen carried her on his back, got into a taxi... and then?

After that, she didn’t remember much.

So she didn’t do anything, why did she feel pain everywhere, as if her body was falling apart.

As she was thinking, she suddenly realized something.

Oh, right... where is Mr. Sterling?

Just as she thought of this, Jensen walked out of the bathroom.

Seeing the person already sitting up on the bed, Jensen paused, a slight glint flickering in his eyes, then he said: "Awake? Then come brush your teeth and eat."

Mia responded with an "oh," then got out of bed, put on slippers, and went to the bathroom.

The washbasin was already filled with water, toothpaste squeezed, Mia stared at it for several seconds; only then did her eyes curve slightly.

Then she lifted the cup and glanced up, froze, nothing else, just that her lips in the mirror were swollen.

Although not particularly severe, the swelling was still visible.

Mia: "..."

Mia: "......!!!"

What happened last night when she was drunk, why were her lips swollen.

In that instant, myriad thoughts raced through her mind.

Then Jensen came in, Mia mechanically and stiffly turned her head, and at a glance saw the bite mark on Jensen’s lips.

The skin was broken.

Mia’s eyes instantly widened, her mind being struck by waves of thunder, rumbling loud, making her already aching head hurt even more.

Jensen looked at the girl’s shocked face, mouth opening several times: "Mr...Mr. Sterling, your mouth... why is it, injured?"

Then she saw Jensen looking at her, slowly saying, "You bit it."

Mia: "..." With a loud crash, she was gone.

Even though she had already vaguely guessed what happened, she still couldn’t help but be shocked after hearing Jensen’s confirmed answer.

"I, I, I..." How should she explain?

Indeed, Mia’s mind was racing now, thinking about how she should explain.

In her mind, Jensen was always gentle and restrained, not someone who would steal a kiss when she was drunk.

Obviously, she had taken advantage of him when drunk.

After all, Mia was well aware of her own nature, being someone who purely judged by appearance, though she usually wouldn’t do such things.

But...?

Looking at Jensen’s face, she thought, perhaps she would.

...

Jensen saw Mia’s face full of regret, assuming she was regretting their contact, his face immediately sank a bit.

"Brush your teeth first, then come out to eat." After saying this, he turned and left the bathroom.

Mia: "..." Mr. Sterling really is angry because she kissed him, it’s over.

Mia had automatically interpreted Jensen’s falling face as anger over that particular implication.

So while brushing her teeth and washing her face, her mind was filled with thoughts of how she could explain for his forgiveness.

Thinking while looking at herself in the mirror, after a long time, she slapped her forehead with a crisp sound, "Damn, how did I end up kissing him!"
