Chapter 1549

Violet choked on her words and met his gaze.

"What did you hear?" Jackie approached her, and the distance between them narrowed gradually.

The shadow on the wall made it seem like they were sticking together.

"I heard Daisie say that you’re drawing me."

She denied it, "I didn’t."

He squinted slightly and did not utter a single word.

Violet turned around.

"I’m going back to work already."

She was about to leave, but Jackie grabbed her by her arm, and she was caught off guard and fell into
his arms.

Jackie pressed her against the wall, lowered his head, and his lips were only inches away from her
temple.

"I want to hear the truth." Violet did not look straight at him.

"What are you talking about?"

His breath brushed across her cheek, and it became more and more intense.

"Do you have feelings for me?"



Her breathing stopped for a moment.

"W-What are the feelings that you’ re referring to?"

Jackie lifted her face, and her whole face was sitting in his palm.

"How did you feel about me the other night?"

Violet gulped her saliva, and her eyelashes twitched.

"Are you messing with me?"

"I am not."

He got half an inch closer to her, and his lips were only inches away.

"Do I sound like I was kidding?"

She did not know where to fix her gaze, and her hands that were propped against his chest were
clenched into fists.

‘Did I have any feelings for him the other night? To be honest, I did feel something.

‘I didn’t reject Jackie’s caress.After all, I won’t have any feelings for any other man apart from Jacob"

But her body’s reaction from the other day exceeded her expectations.

Maybe it was normal for her to feel so, but she felt ashamed as it felt like she had betrayed Jacob.She
had kept her body and mind pure and chaste for him for so long, and she did not want it to be broken
by anyone.

Not to mention that she did not think anyone would have the ability to break it.



Violet pushed him away.

Seeing that she could not shove him away, she could only look away.

"I didn’t feel anything."

He asked again, "Are you sure?"

She became a little impatient.

"What the hell are you trying to do?"

Jackie clasped the side of her neck with his palm and then pressed his lips against hers without any
warning.

Violet was astounded, and the hands that were on his chest clenched tightly into fists.But she could not
even push him away as she became powerless instantly.

All rejections and protests were in vain, and only emotional turbulence and warm physical
entanglement remained.

Jackie did not let her go until she bit his lip, and a hint of salty and metallic taste permeated his entire
mouth.

The tears in her eyes welled up and were on the brink of gushing out, which was very distressing to
look at.

Jackie gently wiped the corner of her eyes with his fingertips and frowned.

"Did my kiss make you feel so aggrieved?" Violet cried and beat him.



"How can I not feel aggrieved? Do you still remember the relationship that we have now? Who gave
you the right to kiss me? You b*stard! You should go to a psychiatrist if you're mentally ill.Why would
you get me involved in this!?"

"Because you’ re the only person that I want to get involved with." She was flustered.

Jackie pressed her hand against his left chest.

"Violet Lovegood, I want to court you." Violet was shocked.

"What did you just say? You want to court me?"

"Yes."

He added calmly, "And I’m dead serious."

She could feel every single heartbeat with her palm—it was so warm and prominent.But it also made
her back off.

Violet pulled her hand out and lowered her gaze.

"You must not be sober..."

Jackie trapped her in his arms, got closer to her, and wrapped her in his arms.

"I’m very sober."

His breath brushed through her hair.

"Violet, can we start all over again? We may not have started before this, but we can always restart
from the very beginning."



"Jackie." She took a deep breath.

"You don’t have to waste your time on me." He replied calmly, "I know."

He lifted her cheek with his palm.

"I’m not asking to take over his corner in your heart.All you need to do is to try to accept me."

He did not plan to get into her heart in one go, but he would accomplish that step by step.
