Unexpected Blessing After Divorce

Chapter 401

Chapter 401 You Were Asking For Me?

Yuliana thought she was long past being shy about these things, and yet her face couldn’t help but burn when Wesley looked at her like that.

However, she also liked to be coy, so she went up to hug him and said, “Of course not. I want you to stay here with me. In fact, it’s not that I can’t rest today, but I dare not rest.”

The trauma from last night was still fresh in Yuliana’s mind. She couldn’t stop herself from trembling every time she closed her eyes, for all she could see was a sea of blood.

She didn’t want to be alone.

Wesley was taken aback by what she said, but he recovered quickly. Yuliana was different from him. He had experienced the same thing that happened last night countless times, so he was already used to it. It was only natural that Yuliana would be scared since that was her first time.

He gently patted her back and said, “I’m not going anywhere. I’ll stay here with you.”

Yuliana felt relieved.

Over the years, she always felt safe as long as Wesley was by her side.

After washing up. Yuliana leaned against Wesley’s arms and closed her eyes to make herself sleepy. She didn’t know whether it was because she hadn’t rested for a long time, so her brain was over-active and over-exhausted, or because she was thinking about something else, but she found it difficult to fall asleep. Wesley realized Yuliana was still awake by the little movements she was making. He looked down and saw her frowning and pursing her lips while her eyes were still closed. She was obviously irritated about something.

“What’s wrong?” he asked in a low voice.

Yuliana opened her eyes and said, “I’m sleepy, but I can’t sleep, so I’m annoyed.” Content property of NôvelDra/ma.Org.

The same thing happened to Yuliana after her divorce from Christopher. She would feel tired and sleepy but found herself tossing and turning on the bed, unable to fall asleep. She had to depend on sleeping pills or melatonin, but even so, she slept very poorly.

“It’s not even nine o’clock yet. You don’t have to sleep if you can’t sleep. Why don’t you go to bed only when you feel like sleeping?” said Wesley.

It was easier for a person to lose sleep if they forced themselves to fall asleep.

“Do you want to watch a movie?” added Wesley.

Although Yuliana didn’t want to watch any movies, she didn’t know what else she could do. It wasn’t like they could only sit there and stare at each other all night.

That would be too weird.

“Okay, I have a tablet in my suitcase,” Yuliana answered.

Wesley got up and took out the tablet from her suitcase. He tried to connect it to the hotel’s WiFi and discovered the speed was pretty fast. He sat back on the bed and asked, “What movie do you want to watch?

“I don’t know. You choose one,” replied Yuliana.

Wesley chose a movie released on Independence Day two years ago. The movie was about busting a drug ring, and it didn’t enjoy any success at the box office because a more popular movie came out at the same time as it did, so very few people had seen it.

The actors and actresses in this movie were not popular or famous to the extent that Wesley and Yuliana didn’t even know some of their names.

Wesley watched it once when he was bored. He thought it was the best movie he had ever seen.

Yuliana watched for a little while and finally couldn’t keep her eyes open. She was between sleep and wakefulness when, in the haze of her sleepiness, she suddenly heard a gun going off.

She jolted awake, and her face immediately turned pale.

Wesley immediately pressed the pause button and hugged Yuliana tightly. “Don’t be scared. The sound is

coming from the movie ”

After a few seconds, Yuliana calmed down and raised her head. She felt a little embarrassed that she was actually frightened by the gunshots in the movie.

I’m sorry for pulling your attention away from the movie,” Yuliana apologized

Wesley raised her chin, looked into her eyes, and said, “Yuliana, you don’t need to thank me, nor do you ever need to apologize to me, understood? I know you’re just doing it out of habit, but this habit of yours makes me feel like I’m a stranger to you.”

Wesley felt like Yuliana was still unable to fully trust and rely on him whenever she was being over- polite to

him.

Yuliana dazedly looked at him and was at a loss for what to do.

Wesley suddenly smiled when he caught her looking at him like that. He lowered his head and kissed her without hesitation.

Yuliana felt an electric current run through her scalp, and her pupils widened.

“Close your eyes,” ordered Wesley.

Yuliana closed her eyes before slightly turning sideways so she could loop her arms around Wesley’s neck. She kissed him back wholeheartedly.

After all, it was only natural for a human being to enjoy beautiful things.

In the past few years, it wasn’t that Yuliana didn’t have such bodily needs. It was more like she didn’t want to indulge in them.

Now, it was different. Yuliana was in a relationship with Wesley and enjoyed him touching her. The last time she was at Wesley’s house, she had planned to do it with him but backed out at the last minute.

As for the reasoning, she didn’t know it at that time, but now she understood it very well. Therefore, Yuliana felt a little guilty about Wesley and responded to his advances more eagerly.

Wesley pressed Yuliana’s shoulder and gently pushed her away. His dark eyes had become even darker. “Yuliana…”

Yuliana reached out to take off his clothes.

Wesley looked into her eyes deeply. “Are you sure? I won’t stop like last time, even if you scream it out.”

Yuliana nodded and kissed him.

Wesley circled his arms around Yuliana and bent her to his will.

Suddenly, a knock sounded on the door.

The two of them ignored the knock. Soon, the knocking turned into a kick, as if the person wouldn’t stop until the door was kicked down.

Wesley suppressed the roiling desire in his body and looked up at Yuliana. “I’ll open the door.”

A flurry of expressions passed by Yuliana’s face before she finally nodded.

Wesley put on his clothes and went to open the door. Yuliana sat up, put on her clothes, and remained seated quietly on the bed.

Needless to say, she knew who knocked on the door.

Soon, Wesley’s words confirmed Yuliana’s speculation.

“Mr. Solace, what’s the matter?”

Wesley, dressed in an oversized T-shirt, was leaning against the door frame and staring at Christopher, who was standing at the door.

Christopher’s face was grim and scary. He scrutinized Wesley from head to toe and said coldly, “I’m looking for Yuliana.”

Wesley frowned slightly. “She’s asleep.”

“Asleep?” Christopher glanced at Wesley and asked, “Are you perhaps hiding another woman in your room, Mr Duncan?”

Wesley’s eyes also turned cold. “I didn’t expect you to have a habit of eavesdropping, Mr. Solace.”

Christopher’s face turned even darker at Wesley’s retort. “Get out of my way.”

Wesley didn’t move. “Mr. Solace, don’t tell me you’re trying to force your way in.

He smiled contemptuously. “Mr. Solace, don’t forget that you’re injured right now. But then again, you’re no match for me, even if you’re not injured.”

“Is that so? Why don’t we have a go and find out if that’s true?” Christopher challenged with a smile.

Yuliana walked over to the door when she realized they were about to fight. “You were asking for me?” she asked calmly.
