The Day Our Promise Breaks (Charles and Evelyn) novel Chapter 14

Once, she truly loved Charles too much, cared about his misunderstandings, and always wanted to prove herself.

Now, it didn't matter anymore.

Charles' gaze was dark and mysterious. His voice was husky as he said, “You!”

As his words fell, he leaned down again under Evelyn's incredulous gaze, kissing her lips wantonly. He didn't give her a chance to resist, and inched closer, entangling wildly.

No matter how she tried to dodge, she couldn't escape him.

In the confined space, the heat climbed higher and higher. With Charles' increasingly unrestrained actions, Evelyn gave up struggling. She closed her eyes, and turned her face away, giving him no reaction.

Over five years, they had had sex countless times. Evelyn knew Charles hated her passive responses, which would always disappoint him.

Just like that night in Maple Garden, he felt let down.

He liked her passionate responses. The more passionate she was, the more interested he became.

Every time he came back, she would do everything she could to keep and please him, hoping that after he was satisfied, he would be in a good enough mood to stay at home a bit longer to spend more time with Charlie.

However, Evelyn could control her heart, not her body. Just as she understood Charles, Charles also knew her body well.

She had tried her utmost to resist, but...

"Trying a new tactic? Are you playing hard to get?"

His dark voice suddenly rang in her ear. It sounded mocking and also sarcastic.

Evelyn suddenly opened her eyes. Charles' slender fingers were before her eyes. Even in the dim light, she could still see the lingering moisture on them.
