Jessica could feel Lucas' scorching gaze, which was turning her on.
She paced around the room, but it couldn't help reduce her discomfort at all.
Jessica could hear Lucas suppressing his breath.
Somehow, she found that sound attractive to her. She held one of her arms with the other and pinched herself.
Jessica hoped that the pain would sober her up.
"What happened to you?" Jessica tried to sound normal.
Lucas saw the wariness and concern in Jessica's eyes. He struggled to hold himself back. "I might have been drugged."
It felt very similar to the night years ago, but it was more torturous now than it had been back then.
He did not like Jessica that night, but now he did.
One couldn't even help but get close to someone they liked, not to mention under the circumstance where they were drugged.
"Don't come over here, Lucas. I don't want to repeat the mistake I made once."
Jessica pinched her arm hard again, and the pain caused by the nails in her arm made her wake up a lot.
She took a few steps back and looked at the sweat that oozed out of Lucas' forehead. Jessica had a subtle feeling.
He was holding himself back, but she didn't know how long he could hang in.
Jessica felt a bit scared.
She didn't know what she was scared of. Perhaps she was scared of repeating the same mistake. Or perhaps she was scared that she might fall for Lucas again.
"You were drugged, too?" Lucas looked at Jessica with confusion.
Jessica did not speak. She bit her lips, but her face was abnormally red. Even her makeup could not cover the blush.
For a moment, Lucas wanted to throw himself at her.
Jessica couldn't push him away and he had a perfect excuse for making the mistake.
But Lucas liked Jessica now. Thus, he couldn't just do that to harm her.
He and Jessica were both victims, both four years ago and now.
Lucas felt it was harder and harder to hold himself back and his vision even got blurry.
Countless voices in his mind were telling him to pounce on Jessica. Lucas closed his eyes, with his hands tightly clenched by his side. And the veins on his forehead were frighteningly visible.
Jessica took a glance at Lucas and was shocked. She staggered two steps back and her legs hit the bed behind her. She could not help but fall into bed.
Lucas opened his eyes and saw Jessica lying on the bed.
Jessica's collar was loosened because she fell onto the bed. Her fair skin was exposed. Lucas saw that and could no longer hold himself back anymore.
Jessica was just about to get up from bed when Lucas pounced on her.
Jessica was sluggish because of the drug. When Lucas pounced over, she felt it hard to push him away. She could barely move.
He was kissing her. His thin lips fell on her face and she could feel the warm breaths he let out. Jessica felt so turned on, as if she was on fire. She started to lose consciousness as well.
Lucas tore her dress apart.
The sound somehow sobered Jessica up.
"Lucas, we are divorced."
"Sorry."
Lucas froze for a moment, and he sobered up a bit, too.
He moved his hand to his mouth and bit it hard.
Jessica could see his brows frowning and on the back of his hand, there lay a bloody mark.
"Lucas! Are you alright?" Jessica exclaimed.
The pain in the back of his hand woke Lucas up a lot.
He glanced at Jessica and lowered his head. "I'm sorry."
Jessica pinched her thigh again. "Lucas, what happened four years ago was a mistake. We can't repeat it."
With that, Lucas calmed down.
He said nothing. He only tossed a glance at Jessica.
Both of them let their desire get the better of them for a moment. Jessica's messy hair and the blush on her face only made her more luring.
Lucas only took a glance before he withdrew his gaze.
If he stared at Jessica any longer, he wouldn't be able to hold himself back.
Lucas reached out to untie his tie. His desire was trying to overwhelm him again.
Jessica looked at him, her stomach sinking. She took a few steps back.
Soon, Lucas took off his tie.
Jessica watched as he walked towards her, her hands trembling. "Lucas, what are you doing?"
