A Vengeful Ex-Wife
Chapter 425 So Clingy

James replied, "No. I've heard many women talk about medical cosmetology, but I've never actually seen you do it. I was just asking casually."

She had been to skin management centers before, but as far as he knew, she had only ever had skin care done, such as hydrating, anti-wrinkle care, or maintenance regimens for some parts of her body. "Many women?" Maria looked at him, a fake smile on her lips. "How many women? Which woman have you ever seen do that?"

For some reason, Maria seemed to be rather sensitive whenever the subject of other women was mentioned.

He took her hand holding the cup of coffee and answered softly, "I don't personally know any woman who has done that. I just heard about it. That's all. You don't have to have medical cosmetology done, but I'l go with you if you want to do it."

Maria shot him a suspicious glance. Why was he suddenly being so gentle? A guilty conscience, perhaps?

She gave herself a mental shake. 'Forget it.'

In a bright voice, she said, "Let's go and have dinner! I want to eat fish head with hot red peppers in that Hunan cuisine restaurant we passed by just now."

"Okay."

As soon as they entered the restaurant, however, Maria received a call from her assistant. "Ms. Song, the clothes you tried on earlier were sold out just

now."

All of those clothes were limited editions, so it was hardly surprising for them to be sold out. With a sigh, Maria replied, "I see. Go to the next clothing shop, then."

"I did, and to several other shops besides that. All of them said the exact same thing."

'Huh?' Maria looked at the man who had just ushered her into a private dining room and asked, "Did you do something behind my back just now?"

"No," James answered.

He did ask the bodyguards to purchase the clothes for her, but technically speaking, he didn't do it behind her back. He did so in plain sight.

Maria remained suspicious, but she stopped asking since he refused to admit to anything. She would replace out the truth once she got back anyway. "You can head back first," she instructed over the phone. "Okay."

James waited for her to end the call before asking, "What happened?"

"Nothing," she replied in a dismissive tone. What if James hadn't actually bought the clothes for her?

If he found out that she had someone buy them for her after giving him so much grief about it, she would definitely lose face in front of him.

He passed the menu to her. "Order whatever you want." "Aren't you afraid that I will order a plate of bean sprouts for you?"

"Please order Double Happiness for me," he mocked.

He shouldn't have let her go that night. She didn't think he needed tonic diet-he only said that to irk her.

Maria studied the menu and ordered several dishes, most of which were healthy vegetarian items. After asking for James' opinion and making sure that everything met his approval, she asked the waiter to serve the dishes as soon as possible.

After dinner, they bought some skin care products and then set off for the hot spring town nearby.

True enough, only a few people ventured to hot springs this season. It was exactly what Maria wanted, because James might want to have sex with her at anytime.

What she didn't know was that the manager of the hot spring club already knew that they were coming and thus had made preparations in advance. All of the hot spring pools had been thoroughly cleaned up and disinfected.

They could take a bath wherever and whenever they fancied and enjoy all kinds of services that the club offered.

The club also boasted of an in-house mineral water source. James followed her into the hot spring pool filled with mineral water. Before she could sit down on one of the benches, he pulled her into his arms and onto his lap.

Despite her struggles, he didn't let go of her. Instead, his hands began to mischievously wander all over her body.

"I knew I shouldn't have come here with you!" she snapped as she whirled around to glare angrily at her captor.

Stealing a kiss from her lips, James teasingly replied, "That's because you're wearing so little clothing." She was the one who seduced him in a bikini first.

"Should I be wrapped in a down jacket?" she retorted, rolling her eyes in exasperation.

"No need. You look just right in this way."

After a moment of silence, James asked in a low voice, "What do you think of my abs?"

"I touched them by accident!" Maria argued indignantly.

"You can touch them whenever you want," he said.

Maria gasped at his audacity.

It was late at night, but Maria headed to the spa when she couldn't stand his roving hands anymore. However, he still followed her there, soaking in the tub nearby as he watched her lying prone in the lounge. When the masseuse went out to fetch something, Maria asked curiously, "James, why are you being so clingy?" "I can be even more so. You'll replace out tonight."

Maria turned her face away, not even bothering to respond. 'He's hopeless.' She couldn't communicate with him.

Maria felt so comfortable that she ended up falling asleep during her massage. Afterwards, she was carried out of the spa by James.

James took her back to the room he had prepared in advance and pinned her barely awake form under him. "Honey, we don't need condoms tonight," he whispered into her ear.

At the mention of the word "condoms," Maria suddenly opened her eyes and kicked him. "Get out!"

The man easily evaded her attack and flashed her a smile. "Are you awake now? Now that you're sober, I'm going to start." He said that on purpose to scare her.

Just as he had guessed, it worked.

Maria could only stare up at him, her thoughts churning. 'What a shameless man!'

After her long soak in the hot spring, her skin was soft and supple. He couldn't keep his hands away for a single second.

He thought, 'Was this woman specifically born to seduce me?'

It was their night. Both of them succumbed to the room's seductive atmosphere, and no one put a stop to it.

The next morning, James was already up and well-dressed when Maria woke up.

Upon hearing her stir, he walked over and kissed the half-asleep woman on the cheek. "Good morning, honey."

Maria muttered, "Stay away from me."

James didn't mind her attitude. "Get up. We're leaving."

The woman opened one eye and snorted lazily. "Why should I leave when you want me to? No way!" "What does that mean?"

"What I mean is, I won't leave today! I will go on having fun here!" The feeling of waking up naturally, without relying on alarms, was one of the best feelings in the world. She stretched out luxuriously on top of the bed.

"Okay." James was already dressed up to leave. When he heard what she said, he started taking off his clothes without the least hesitation.

Maria stared wide-eyed as he unbuttoned his shirt. "What are you doing?" "Why is he suddenly taking off his clothes?'

"Going to bed."

'Hasn't he already gotten up? Why is he going back to bed?" "I have changed my mind." Maria bolted upright.

James cast away his shirt, pressed her back down on the bed, and took her lips in a passionate kiss. His eyes flashing with a dangerous light, he murmured, "Too late!"

"Mmmph..." Her protests died down as his lips descended over hers once again.

After lunch, Maria told him after some thought, "James, ask someone to bring Bob here." Bob liked playing with water. The place was well-maintained, so they didn't have to worry about cleanliness. Besides, Bob wouldn't catch a cold in this type of weather.

James nodded. "I'll make the arrangements."

That afternoon, Summer brought Bob to the club, followed by six bodyguards. Summer was visibly reluctant to hand Bob over to Maria. "He is so cute! He didn't mind staying with a stranger like me. He didn't even cry or scream on the way over!"

Maria's heart melted when she saw her son. "My

son's always been well-behaved. What a good boy!"

"I heard that boys are usually naughty. Has he ever been disciplined?"
