Forced to Marry the Sickly Billionaire-Chapter 352: Bubble Kiss

Adrian Holt nodded in agreement with Serena Summers’ words, "Yes, it’s all my fault. Serena, can you forgive me?"

Serena Summers wasn’t angry to begin with, and now hearing him calling her "Serena," her heart softened even more.

The corners of her lips couldn’t help but curl up, and she glanced at him sideways, "All right then, I forgive you."

Seeing her smile, Adrian Holt couldn’t help but chuckle, then he leaned down and kissed her fair cheek.

His chin was covered in white foam, and now it was all smeared onto Serena Summers’ face.

Seeing her reflection in the mirror, she wanted to hit him out of irritation, "Why are you so annoying!"

Adrian Holt, holding the razor in one hand and wrapping his other arm around her slender waist, nuzzled his face against hers once more.

"I think you look quite pretty right now."

After saying this, he leaned down and kissed her lips again.

Serena Summers was forced to stand on her tiptoes, her lower back against the edge of the washbasin, made to withstand Adrian Holt’s kisses.

Her fair arms hung around the man’s neck, left at his mercy to take as he pleased.

The straps of her slip dress had slipped off her shoulders without her noticing, exposing a swath of snowy white skin.

Adrian Holt’s breathing became heavier.

After what felt like a long time, Serena Summers’ body had gone limp from the kisses, and only then did the man gradually let her go.

His low, husky voice echoed in her ears, "I might not be able to eat, but tasting is always allowed, right?"

Serena Summers’ cheeks instantly flushed red, and she kicked him hard with her foot, glaring at him, "Why do you always think about that kind of thing?"

Adrian Holt let out a suppressed grunt, his eyebrows slightly raised, "Appetite comes with eating, you know."

He was, after all, a normal man, and it would be strange if he could restrain himself in front of such a mesmerizing woman like Serena Summers.

Serena Summers didn’t bother with him, and turned on the faucet to rinse off the foam on her face.

Damn, her lips were even more swollen than before.

Now she really couldn’t face people!

The more she thought about it, the angrier she got. Serena Summers couldn’t help but glare at him again, "Be careful not to overindulge. You’ll be disliked later on."

Adrian Holt: "..."

Hearing the phrase "overindulge," Adrian Holt couldn’t help but sport three dark lines on his forehead.

Who curses their own man like this?

Feeling his dignity as a man being challenged, Adrian Holt approached again and took hold of her hand.

"Your husband is quite skilled in that area."

Serena Summers felt a scorching breath as the man’s jaw rested on her shoulder, and the sensation under the palm of his hand was hard to ignore.

She retracted her hand as though burned.

...

In an apartment in the downtown area of S city, three handsome men with extraordinary presence were sitting facing each other.

The three of them sat in silence, their eyes fixated on the mobile phones laid out on the coffee table.

Several days had passed, and although they had received many messages, none were the ones they wanted.

Evan Summers was the first to lose patience, picking up his phone, "We can’t wait any longer. It’s been so long, do you think Serena didn’t receive our gift?"

Marcus Summers exposed the truth, "The previous years, we handed it over to the Shaw Family’s nanny, but this time I had a friend help bring it inside."

If they hadn’t received the gifts over the past two years, they could still deceive themselves, blaming the nanny for not being diligent enough to deliver the gifts.

But what about this time?

Deep down, all three of them knew very well that Serena Summers was unlikely to forgive them.

Two years ago, they had an epiphany, seeing through Grace Summers’ true colors.

But before they could do anything, they discovered that their mother had been arrested by the police for involuntary manslaughter.

It was also at that time that they first learned that their respected father had kept a mistress on the side for a long time.

To their astonishment, they discovered that Grace Summers was their father’s child with that mistress.

Years ago, in order to bring his illegitimate daughter into the Summers Family to live a better life, he did not hesitate to get rid of Serena Summers by having her taken away.

Serena Summers suffered so much outside, yet her brothers mistook an illegitimate daughter for a treasure.

The overbearing guilt almost engulfed them completely, leaving them too ashamed to face Serena.

Over the past two years, they have been secretly keeping their eyes on Serena.

When they learned that Lucas Shaw had fallen into the sea and was in distress, they took advantage of the funeral to visit the Shaw Family, yet were unable to see Serena as they had wished.

But they did not give up, willing to sneak a peek at her from the shadows, content if that was all they could do.

For Serena’s birthday this time, the three brothers started preparing gifts a month in advance.

Even Marcus Summers, who was usually cold and detached, began to fold origami stars.

They had always been hoping to get a response from Serena, but in the end... there was nothing.

Evan Summers was the first to lose his composure, his eyes turning red, his hands clenched into fists, seemingly struggling with his emotions.

Declan Summers patted his shoulder, comforting him, "Don’t think too much, as long as she is happy, that’s all that matters."

Now that Mr. Lucas Shaw had returned, Serena no longer needed to wash her face with tears.

As long as she could be happy, everything would be worth it.

"Damn it, don’t let me see Grace Summers with that bastard again!" Evan Summers said through gritted teeth.

Hearing this, the expressions of Marcus Summers and Declan Summers darkened as well.

According to their investigation, after Yalena Grace passed away two years ago, Henry Summers had taken Grace Summers to settle abroad.

He also took all the funds transferred out of the Summers Group.

The Summers Family went completely bankrupt, and the shares of Marcus Summers’ company plummeted, nearly leading to its collapse.

Declan Summers’ reputation in the entertainment industry was also negatively impacted.

All of this was thanks to Henry Summers and Grace Summers!

In their hearts, the three brothers cursed Henry Summers and Grace Summers countless times, their eyes filled with hatred.

However, they didn’t know that Henry Summers and Grace Summers, who had taken the money and run off abroad, were not doing well either. fɾeewebnoveℓ.co๓

On a street in Country C, Grace Summers stood in front of a limited edition Lamborghini, her eyes tearful as she looked at the person inside the car.

"Theodore, why do you treat me like this? Who is this woman?"

Inside the car, a man with delicate features and a high nose bridge was intimately holding a seductively shapely and sensuous woman.

That woman was dressed revealingly, in a black strapless top that half-concealed and half-revealed her, as if it would slip out the next second.

Her chestnut-brown wavy curls, bright red lips, allure and sexiness all on display.

At the moment, the two were tightly wrapped in each other’s arms, kissing passionately.

The man named Theodore was disheveled, his tie loosened, several buttons of his shirt undone, revealing his muscular chest.

Hearing Grace Summers’ accusation, Theodore sneered with a mock smile, "Grace, we’ve broken up already."

"I didn’t agree to break up, I don’t want to break up! Theodore, please, don’t leave me behind." Grace Summers stepped forward, clinging to Theodore’s arm, pleading desperately.

Theodore gave her a once-over, took out a stack of money from his wallet, and stuffed it into her hands, "This is your compensation, don’t come bothering me anymore."

Theodore was a playboy at heart; how could he ever settle down for one woman?

Besides... getting together with Grace Summers was only because he felt she was different from other women.

Chasing the novelty of the moment.

Now that the novelty had worn off, it wasn’t interesting anymore.

"Theodore, my feelings for you are genuine, how can you do this to me?" Grace Summers’s tearful eyes, filled with misery, begged pitifully.

But Theodore was not moved, "When you were with me, wasn’t it just for my money? What, you think this isn’t enough?"

"It’s not like that..."

"Then keep your distance, don’t think I don’t know you have other men besides me."

With that, he started the engine, stepped on the gas, and left with the woman.

Grace Summers, standing close to the car, was accidentally bumped and her frail body violently fell to the ground.

Watching the car drive away, Grace Summers’ mind went blank.

How could he know?
