True Love Deserves a Second Chance
Chapter 164 Let's Try It Out

Every time he said "I love you," his movements got more intense. Joey finally understood how deep his love was immeasurable. She got completely lost in the moment. A wild night left Joey exhausted. She didn't wake up until noon the next day.

She felt sore all over, even her fingertips hurt. She cursed Sebastian in her mind.

Just then, her phone rang. Seeing it was Sophia, she answered. "Sophia."

Hearing Joey's tired and hoarse voice, Sophia freaked out. "Joey, what's up with your voice? Did you really get back with that jerk Sebastian?"

Joey replied, "Yeah, I met his parents with him yesterday."

Sophia got worried. "Did his awful mom give you a hard time? Did they bug you about not getting pregnant? If they did, tell me, and I'll go give them a piece of my mind!" Joey smiled. "Don't worry, I'm fine. How about you? How's studying with Mr. Cross?"

Sophia got mad. "Don't even mention that jerk. He knocked on my door early, saying he won our bet because you got back with Sebastian, and now I have to be his maid for a month. I've never served anyone!" Joey laughed. "Did he move in with you?"

"Yeah, he said his family is pressuring him to get married, so he's hiding out at my place and making me cook for him. It's your fault I lost the bet. You owe me."

"Alright, I'll treat you to a big meal tomorrow and buy you some jewelry for your birthday. Deal?"

Sophia's mood lifted. She giggled. "Now you sound like Mrs. Winters. But watch out for Isabella. She's not easy to deal with."

"I know. Go cook for him. Hope Mr. Cross survives your cooking."

"What are you saying? My cooking isn't that bad. I won't poison him."

After hanging up, Sophia heard Alexander from the kitchen. "Sophia, is this the meal you made for me?"

Sophia rushed in and saw the nearly burnt fish. She snapped, "It's the fish you bought. It burned as soon as I grilled it. Joey's fish never does this."

Alexander sighed. "So what now? I just finished a seven-hour surgery. Are you expecting me to cook? Don't forget who's supposed to serve whom." "Don't kid yourself! You think you've won? Joey hasn't married Sebastian yet, so you haven't won. Letting you stay here is already more than enough." She stood with her hands on her hips, head held high, and kept talking. Alexander pinched his brow. "Fine, you're the boss. I'll cook for you, okay?"

He put on an apron, took out veggies and meat, and started cooking.

Just then, Alexander's phone rang. Sophia answered it and held it to his ear.

A strong voice came through. "Alexander, Mr. Sinclair came all the way from City C to see you with his granddaughter. If you keep avoiding him, I'll cut ties with you!"

Alexander chuckled awkwardly. "If you want to see him, go ahead. I've said it before, I'll decide my own marriage. No arranged marriages for me."

"Grandpa, I've carried lots of girls on my back. Should I marry all of them? Alright, I have things to do. Talk later."

He signaled Sophia to hang up. She grinned mischievously. "Not planning to meet your fiancée? What if she's a beauty? You'd miss out."

Alexander rolled his eyes. "Even if she's a goddess, I won't marry her!"

Just then, Sophia got a message from her mom. She opened it and saw a photo of a roguish man.

Recognizing the man's features, her eyes widened. It was the jerk in front of her. Her mom's message read: [Sophia, this is your arranged marriage partner. I think he's qt. Wanna try?] Meanwhile, Joey put down her phone and closed her eyes again.

Sophia's words made her alert. Now that Sebastian had brought her home, Cordelia and Isabella wouldn't let her off easily. She had to be careful.

The door opened, and Sebastian stood there in black loungewear.

His deep eyes, sharp features, and seductive gaze could make anyone fall for him.

He walked to the bedside, placed a tray on the cabinet, and bent down to kiss Joey. His husky voice whispered, "Are you exhausted?"

Joey glared at him. "What do you think?"

He kissed her neck and smiled. "I wanted to go slow, but you kept asking me to go faster. I couldn't disobey my wife."

"Shut up! Who's your wife?"

Sebastian's smile deepened. "Alright, I'll shut up. How about your husband feeding you?"

"I said, I'm not your wife." Joey kicked him, but Sebastian grabbed her ankle and kissed it.

His eyes were filled with desire. "Close your eyes. I have a gift for you."

His warm palm gently caressed Joey's thigh, sending shivers through her.

Joey buried her face in the pillow. Suddenly, she felt something cold on her ankle. She sensed something being put on it, and a pleasant sound reached her ears.

Joey was stunned for a few seconds, then remembered what Sebastian had said last night. He wanted to put a bell on her ankle to control the rhythm during sex.

Realizing this, Joey's eyes shot open. A sparkling diamond anklet was already on her ankle. The white platinum chain and pink diamonds made her leg look even more beautiful.

At the anklet's clasp was a thumb-sized bell. With just a slight movement, the bell made a pleasant sound.

Joey could already imagine how loud it would be during sex. "Sebastian, take it off."

Sebastian held her and kissed her lips. "Joey, do you want to try it out?"
