Billionaire Ex-wife: I Can't Live Without You
Chapter 2139

Jennifer asked, a note of disbelief in her voice.

“Even if I wanted to do more, I would need your permission.

I wouldn’t do anything without your consent, especially when you’re drunk,” Hilliard responded earnestly.

Jennifer trusted him but couldn’t hide a tinge of disappointment.

“You slept like that on our first night away.

Are you too cautious, or am I not intriguing enough to catch your interest?”

Taken aback, Hilliard studied Jennifer’s face, slowly grasping what she implied.

“Jennifer, do you… Do you want to…”

Jennifer pushed his head gently away and interjected, “I wasn’t thinking about that.

“Then… hurry up.

”

“What?” Hilliard frowned slightly, then lowered his head to ki*s her lips tenderly.

“Let’s take our time.

”

Hilliard quickly moved his arm, and they both tucked themselves under the covers.

Still feeling uneasy, Jennifer asked, “Hilliard, with Lucinda and Nathan next door, won’t they hear us if we’re too loud?”
