Billionaire’s Pampered Wife

Chapter 24 You don’t like me?



A strong urge of wildness, of hormones, hit Stella hard, she started to think. She used to think that Jasper was into her, but she also thought that she might have been too full of herself. But now that Jasper took the initiative to kiss her, did it mean that he was really into her?

Stella’s heart pounded so rapidly as if it was jumping out of her throat, she tried to push against Jasper’s shoulder. She was running out of breath, and she felt hot. Jasper finally let go of her after a few long moments.

Jasper’s eyes were obscured by her face, and she waved her palm, attempting to slap his face, but she failed. He was a soldier, and his quick responses caught her before she could slap him.

Stella was extremely furious, she shouted, “Do you really think I’m such an easy-going woman? Do I deserve for a random guy to treat me like this? ”

“I’m not “random guy”, said Jasper with his deep voice.

Stella was startled, she could not figure out what he was up to, but she somehow could feel his strong sense of possessive affection.

“You’re drunk, and I’m a married woman,” she said, trembling. Stella said these words to establish the boundaries between the both of them.

Disappointment filled his eyes and let go of her, he shut his eyes to rest, and said, ” Let’s go.”

Stella was not willing to go with him anymore, because of how he behaved earlier.

” I’m not going. ” Stella refused, she was afraid to stay with him, and she opened the car door, wanting to leave.

” Behave yourself, before I change my mind, I can’t promise what I would do afterward. ” Jasper looked at Stella and said.

Jasper’s eyes looked deeper than the sea, his brows sharper than knives, she felt under pressure. Jasper was not kidding.

Stella gave in to his threat, he was a respectable military captain, while she was just a simple doctor, she had no guts to fight back.

“What were you thinking? ” Stella closed the door unwillingly and asked.

“I’d want to know too.” Jasper replied, turning his face aside, he proceeded to close his eyes to rest.

His heart was pounding hard and wild, but his rational mind told him to keep his cool, he calmed down quickly.

Stella glanced at him, she knew in her mind, that they were both grown adults. And she knew that intimate things tend to happen between adults, especially lonely souls such as themselves, who in the present, only had each other and were completely alone. It was perfectly normal to want to act on their desires.

But she did not want to be a person like Federick, and so, she will always keep her discipline when it came to other people’s feelings, and also, especially when it came to her body.

When Stella drove into the Special Forces camp, Jasper awoke. His deep eyes were like vast oceans.

“Go straight, and take a turn at the third junction, and we’ll arrive in 1KM.” Jasper guided.

Stella followed his instructions, and they arrived at the apartment in no time. She actually knew the way to the apartment as she had been there once, Lieutenant Johnson had brought her here.

Lieutenant Johnson saw Jasper’s car approaching, he quickly walked towards the car and opened the door for Jasper respectfully. Jasper got down first, then Stella got down on her own.

Jasper didn’t bother looking at Stella at all, and ordered Lieutenant Johnson to bring him a hangover cure.

Stella was under pressure, she felt that Jasper was in a bad mood. He was such a strange fellow, wasn’t he?

Stella then headed to the boot and took out all the groceries. Lieutenant Johnson was there to lend her a helping hand.

Apart from the groceries, she also took a look at the present that Eli Wayne gifted her. She did not take them out but closed the boot instead, and headed directly to the kitchen.

After Jasper had his cure, he went to the kitchen and watched Stella busy herself with the food preparation, his eyes turned warm, he took out a book and started to read, but he just couldn’t concentrate.

It felt so good to be kissing Stella, he had no idea why, but he had such a strong infatuation towards her.

After an hour of messy pondering, the delicious smell of home-cooked food wafted through the air.

He put down the book and headed to the kitchen.

“A moment please, dinner is not served just yet. ” Stella explained.

Jasper looked at the kitchen of food, the dishes were all well prepared, especially the crayfish, with its creamy thick sauce. The place smelled like heaven.

“Do you always cook?” asked Jasper.

“Nah, but I used to do it with mom at home when I was younger. ” Stella replied.

“Why don’t you cook for your husband?” Jasper asked with caution.

“My husband will never eat what I make for him,” said Stella, calmly.

Stella looked a little gloomy, she recalled that Federick had never eaten what she cooked. She felt a twinge of sadness, not because she loves him still, but because she felt that it was all for nothing.

“So, he has never tasted any of your dishes? ” asked Jasper, his eyes widening happily.

“Yes,” said Stella while taking the crayfish out of the kitchen.

“You still have to wait for a bit, the other dishes are on their way, you can have crayfish first,” said Stella while placing the crayfish on the dining table. She went back to the kitchen.

“You eat crayfish too? ” asked Jasper.

“Yes, everyone loves crayfish. ” Stella said as she walked past him.

As Stella was taking out the rest of the dishes, she noticed that Jasper had already helped remove the crayfish shells and arrange them nicely on a plate.

Jasper placed the crayfish in front of Stella and said, “You can have all of these to yourself, I’m allergic to crayfish. ”

“….” Stella was silent, his gestures had touched her.

Jasper was the only man in her life that took the trouble to remove the crayfish shells for her. Even though she was touched, her rationality presided, she knew that she was a married woman, and she can never get together with such a respectable man like Jasper.

Stella then placed all the ready dishes on the table, and served rice.

Jasper ate his dinner silently, his head bowed. Stella was silent too; she did not touch the crayfish he had prepared for her.

Jasper looked at Stella and asked, “Are you going to have the crayfish? ”

“I… ” Stella was stunned, she hastily crafted an excuse and said, “I prefer to detach the shell by myself.”

Jasper then quickly grabbed a crayfish and put it in his mouth, Stella frowned, didn’t he just say that he was allergic to crayfish?

As she was busy with her thoughts, Jasper pulled her towards him and put a piece of crayfish in her mouth.

Stella’s heart started pounding wildly, she did not know if she should swallow it or spit it out.

Jasper then let go of her, looked at Stella’s lips and ordered, “How dare you not eat it, I have already fed it to you. ”

Stella sat awkwardly and swallowed the crayfish, while Jasper settled down and continued eating.

They sat looking across at each other. Under his gaze, she quickly got picked up another crayfish and ate it.

Jasper’s mouth curved a little, he seemed to be smiling.Têxt © NôvelDrama.Org.

“Am I really that scary to you? ” asked, Jasper.

“How interesting,” Stella smiled and did not reply, “What do you think, chief? ”

“Eat slowly, I’ll still continue removing the crayfish shells for you, they are all yours,” said Jasper gently.

Stella went silent.

After a few moments, she asked frankly, ” You like me, don’t you? ” She did not like to play with feelings.

Jasper looked at her, his eyes brimming with emotion.
