Chapter 421 Do Not Touch Me
“Gosh, you two are so…”
Josephine rubbed her temple. “Never mind. Just do what you want. If you want to split, then go ahead.”
As soon as she said that, she headed upstairs with a helpless expression. Seeing that, Emmeline stuck her tongue at Jonathan before running after her sister.
She was scared to be left alone with Jonathan.
Around fifteen minutes later, Jonathan returned to the room.
Josephine was sitting against the headboard, flipping through a book about economics. When she saw Jonathan enter, she closed the book.
“Emmeline is still young, so don’t be bothered by her. I’ll give her your number before she leaves. If she needs anything, please give her a hand.”
“Why would I be petty with a young girl?” Jonathan sat down smilingly and found a comfortable spot in Josephine’s arms. “Darling, can I not sleep on the couch tonight?”
Instantly, Josephine’s face blushed. “Where do you want to sleep, then?”
Although they had been married for a long time, they only ever shared the bed once.
“In bed with you, duh!” Jonathan grinned at Josephine and added, “Darling, I’m leaving for Durbaine tomorrow. How could you bear to make me sleep alone on the couch tonight?”
“You’re leaving tomorrow?”
Josephine was surprised.
Although she had guessed that Jonathan would set off in a few days, she didn’t expect it to be so soon.
“Yeah.” Jonathan nodded. “I can’t afford to delay. Something might go wrong if I get there late.”
He had to get his hands on the jade pendant at any cost.
“All right. I’ll pack your things tomorrow morning. As for tonight… As for tonight, just sleep here.” Josephine bit her lip shyly after she said that. Under the dim light, her flushed face seemed extremely adorable.
The scene made Jonathan lose all control.
He yanked the covers open and slithered under it.
The next second, Josephine’s squeals filled the room. “Jonathan, stay still! Stop moving your hands. Ugh, Jonathan! You… Keep your hands to yourself! Do not touch me!”
Right after Jonathan went under the blanket, Josephine could feel his hands roaming around sneakily.
I would let him be if this were any other day, but I’m pregnant right now! How could he fool around like this?
Yet, Jonathan blinked at her as if he did nothing wrong. “What’s wrong? I just took off some clothes. I didn’t even do anything to you.”
“You… You can’t take off the clothes!” Josephine voiced angrily.
“What? Why?”
“You can take off your own clothes if you want to, but why are you trying to remove mine?” In just a matter of minutes, Josephine’s face and neck turned beet red from exasperation.
The sight of Jonathan’s innocent expression pissed her off even more.
When he finally stopped messing around, Josephine lay in his embrace and asked in a small voice, “Jonathan, do all men like being surrounded by women? Do you guys wish to be polygamists because you feel unsatisfied with just one wife?”
Her questions took Jonathan aback. “Why would you suddenly ask that?”
“Don’t ask for the reason. Just answer me!” Josephine said sternly.
“That’s not true.” Jonathan shook his head and continued, “You’re the only woman I like. You will be my one and only wife in my entire life.”
“You smooth talker. You’re just fooling me with sweet words!” Josephine rolled her eyes at him. With a doubtful expression, she insisted, “I don’t believe you’ve never considered doing that!”
“I never did! Why would I lie to you?” Jonathan said resignedly.
In fact, he could get any woman he wanted without having to rely on smooth talk.
All he needed to do was make a call to Hades, and the top celebrities and actresses in the entertainment industry would be at his disposal.
“Let me ask you this, then. Do men have a thing for sisters?” Right after asking that, Josephine felt her face heat up from embarrassment.
“Sisters?” Jonathan furrowed his brows. “Where did you hear these things from?”
“I read them from a novel.” Josephine threw him a sideways glance, explaining, “The novel claims that all men are playboys who never feel contented with what they have. Aside from that, it is also said that you men have this fantasy of marrying two sisters so your desire to conquer would be aroused! Is that true?”
As Josephine stared at Jonathan, he let out a sigh. “You should stop reading those misleading novels from now on,” he advised. “The author doesn’t seem to be a decent person himself. What’s his pen name? I’ll ask someone to track him down and capture him for instilling wrong ideas in you!”
“Haha! Is there a need for that?” Josephine burst into laughter at the thought of Jonathan’s men looking for the author all over the country. “All he did was write a novel, yet you’re going to have him captured? Isn’t that too unreasonable?”
“I don’t care. It’s his fault for misleading you.” In a smooth motion, Jonathan slid his hand down and wrapped it around Josephine’s slim waist. Tickling her lightly, he demanded, “Tell me. What’s his pen name?”
“I won’t tell you.” Josephine bit her lip, unwilling to give in.
“Will you tell me or not?”
Jonathan sped up his tickling as he questioned again. Immediately, Josephine started squirming and giggling uncontrollably. In the end, she was forced to surrender. “Fine, I’ll tell you. His pen name is Justice Gunther. Go ahead and capture him. Hold him at gunpoint and ask him why it takes him so long to post new chapters! Let’s see if he’ll ever dare to delay again.”
“Justice Gunther, huh? All right. I’ll keep that in mind and have him seized tomorrow.” With a sly chuckle, Jonathan rolled over and proceeded to pin Josephine under him. “Before we capture him, shall we warm up with some fun exercises?”
Josephine rolled her eyes at his words. “Yeah, right! Don’t you know I’m pregnant? Do you want to sleep on the couch again?”
“So what if you’re pregnant?” Curling his lips up into a smirk, Jonathan added, “Who said pregnant women can’t have fun exercises?”
“What do you want?”
Josephine curled up and wrapped the blanket tightly around herself as she stared at him with apprehension.
For some reason, there seemed to be an evil intention behind his smile.
“To feast on you, of course. If that doesn’t work, how about you feast on me?” Jonathan raised his brow suggestively and pulled the blanket from her before sliding under it.
In an instant, Josephine started squealing and writhing around.
“Jonathan, stop it! Don’t touch me! Ah…”
