Chapter 4 Please Be Gentle

• As soon as they reached his room, James place her on the bed and continued to make out with her.
• Soon, her dress was thrown to the floor.
• She had nothing but black undergarment on her body.
• James unhooked her bra and pulled it from her.
• She looked as delectable as she was three years ago, triggering intense desire in him.
• James embraced and caressed her…
• Her moans acted like a catalyst, intensifying his desire.
• He resisted his painful arousal and trailed warm kisses down her belly.
• He did not want her to feel pain like three years ago.
• Clara was a little afraid. However, the unfamiliar sensation caused warm wetness to flow from her nether region.
• "Jon, please be gentle." Clara said in a trembling voice.
• James suddenly went still and stopped moving his hands. He frowned and looked at her flushed face with a conflicted expression.
• Her lashes fluttered even as she closed her eyes.
• James finally realized she did not know who he was.
• He closed his eyes and got up in frustration.
• His dick remained erect.
• Thus, he rushed into the bathroom and turned on the shower.
• His head was showered with cold water.
• His irises grew darker.
• He stayed in the shower until he calmed down.
• Then, he returned to the bedroom to find Clara asleep, but her clothes were still on the floor.
• Her slender bare legs looked alluring on the bed.
• James helped her to put on her clothes and tucked her gently under the blanket. Then, he sat at the head of the bed and watched her.
• The room was silent. It seemed like the passion from just now was only a figment of his imagination.
• Three years ago, I ruined her for the first time.
• Is that why she has a troubled relationship with her husband? Is it my fault?
• Remorse flashed across his eyes.
• He got up from the bed and went out of the room.
• Lieutenant Colonel Adler came to him holding a contraceptive. "Chief, she has to take this within 72 hours to prevent pregnancy."
• James raised his eyebrows and replied, "She doesn't need this."
• "Is she in her safe period?" Lieutenant Colonel Adler asked in a surprised tone.
• James looked at Lieutenant Colonel Adler coldly. He seemed threatening like a killer.
• Thus, Lieutenant Colonel Adler looked down and did not dare to meet his gaze.
• "I need you to arrange a female staff to take care of her. Also, you are to forget everything you saw tonight." James ordered.
• "Understood." Lieutenant Colonel Adler answered.
• The following morning, Clara woke up with a severe headache from a hangover.
• She sat on the bed and glanced at her surroundings.
• The bedsheet was green like military camouflage. There was a bookshelf opposite the bed filled with books.
• It was a man's room.
• Clara frowned and could only remember Aari giving her a glass of water. Everything went blank after that.
• I must have blacked out from drinking too much.
• As Clara was about to get up, James came to her with a vanity bag.
• She looked up and accidentally met his gaze. She was stunned for a moment.
• He is the chief who saved me yesterday.
• But why can't I remember how I got here.
• "Sorry, I was drunk yesterday. May I know where this is?" Clara asked apologetically.
• James replied calmly. "I brought you here."
• Then, he handed her the vanity bag. "There are toiletries here. You should wash up first."
• Clara accepted the vanity bag and thanked him. However, she gasped when she opened the bag.
• Everything came from a luxury brand in France. Even a bottle of shower cream would cost a hefty sum.
• "I… I can't take this." Clara placed the vanity bag on the couch beside the bed.
• She felt awkward and headed to the door to leave.
• "Have some breakfast first before you go." James said in a deep voice.
• Clara glanced towards the dining table and saw two glasses of smoothies, plates of omelets, and bread.
• "The smoothie will help with the hangover. You should drink it first." James said.
• Clara hesitated.
• She was not sure whether it was only her imagination. Somehow, she kept feeling that James had some opinion about her.
• Could I have said something bad when I was drunk?
• "Did I say anything inappropriate when I was drunk yesterday?" Clara asked worriedly.
• James looked up from the book he was reading and replied indifferently, "Why you think you have said something inappropriate?"
• Did I really say something inappropriate?
• Clara's face flushed with embarrassment.
• She smiled awkwardly. "I have a tendency to talk nonsense when I'm drunk. Please don't believe anything I said."
• He looked up with dark and unfathomable eyes, pausing at her flushed cheeks and taking in her nervous and shy expression. Suddenly, he narrowed his gaze, and his eyes turned cold.
• Her embarrassed expression reminded him of last night.
• She had called out Jon's name even as she moaned beneath James' body.
