Jasmine's kiss had come totally unexpected that Charlie was utterly shocked. It had never crossed Charlie’s mind that she would kiss him. i
Honestly speaking, despite the fact that he was the young master of the Wade family and the Master
Wade that everyone in Aurous Hill respected, he didn't have much experience with women. 2
Before this, the most intimate contact he had with a woman was his wife, Claire, and it was just a light peck on the lips. 6
In contrast, Jasmine’s kiss was much more realistic and he could actually feel and appreciate the tenderness that the kiss brought him. 1
Charlie was a little panicked that he didn’t know what to do or how to react. 5
Perhaps because the posture she attempted was so tiring since she had to turn around and straddle the center console to kiss him that she couldn't hold on any longer, she sat back in the driver seat. Her face turned into such a shade of red so bright that blood might drip from her face anytime soon, s
In fact, even her ears that were hidden behind the silky hair were red.
Jasmine didn't dare to look at Charlie. She stared at the steering wheel in jitters, not knowing what to do.

Three years, Master Wade, three years! I don't get it, why do you want to hold on to a sexless marriage for so long?" 9
She started to get a little emotional, her eyes becoming red with tears. She continued, "From the moment I first met you, I felt sorry and aggrieved for you. Everyone in Aurous Hill respects and regards you as the true dragon because everyone knows that you have extraordinary power and strength, far beyond these plain folks in the city, but I don't understand-with your capability, why do you have to marry into the Wilson family, be the lowly live-in son-in-law, and stay in this unconsummated marriage?” 6
Charlie smiled bitterly and said, "Claire has been very kind to me. How could I leave her just because I have some ability?” 8
When Jasmine heard this, the tears in her reddened eyes flew out and slid down her cheeks. She said," Whatever your wife can give me, I believe I can give you too, and even the things that your wife can't give you, I can..."
