Chapter 78


    Meet waen’t raised by a family of schrs and manners. His hostility and temper were never hidden.


    But be hadn’t thrown down like this in years.


    the QUY wailing on the ground, he stood up and walked over to Jocelyn. His gaze wasn’t any softer as


    he sized her up. “Didn’t you try to dodge?”


    “I did Jocelyn’s voice was shaky. “But couldn’t get away.”


    Then why dare youe?” Melvin squinted at her.


    Jocelyn was freaking out inside. How could Melvin not see right through her little schemes?


    She had done it on purpose.


    “Aren’t you always putting your trust in Willow? Jocelyn mustered her courage. “Her intentions to harm


    me have never changed.”


    Melvin’s brows knitted together, clearly not pleased.


    Jocelyn couldn’t bring herself to meet his eyes. She had been genuinely scared by him just now.


    That cruelty and savagery even seemed a bit bloody to her.


    “So, you’re trying to prove your point in this way?”


    “What else could I do? You chose to believe her, not me Jocelyn hated to resort to this, but she saw no


    other way.


    As long as Melvin treated Willow specially, there was no chance things would ever go back to how they


    used to be between him and Jocelyn


    Melvin stared at her for a long time without speaking, his dark expression and icy stare upset Jocelyn


    further.


    The more he acted like this, the more it showed that Willow was still special to him in his heart.


    Even knowing that Willow’s intentions weren’t as straightforward as they seemed, he wouldn’t really do


    anything to her because of their previous rtionship.


    He did have put some restrictions on Willow’s job. But he could bring her back to the limelight


    whenever he wanted


    It might seem like he cared about Jocelyn, but the one he actually cared about was Willow.


    Suddenly, Melvin grabbed Jocelyn’s wrist and started dragging her out. She was afraid that if she


    struggled, her wrist would be broken


    As they stumbled to the door, Willow came walking in from outside.


    “Melvin?” Willow was surprised to see him, “What are you doing here?”


    Then she heard the pained groans from inside the room. She gave Melvin and Jocelyn a quick nce


    and hurried in


    Shocked at the scene, Willow turned and asked, “Melvin, did you do this to him?”


    Jocelyn just watched quietly, curious to see what Melvin would say.


    Melvin looked back indifferently. “Got any problem with that?”


    Willow rushed over, panicked, “Do you have any idea who he is? His dad’s working in the tax bureau


    “So what?”


    “If you hurt him like this, what if Willow left her sentence hanging, but everyone got the gist


    Dealing with certain government departments is apany’s worst nightmare If you piss them off, they


    could be snooping around your business all the time.


    Melvin’s eyes narrowed dangerously. So that’s his excuse toy hands on my woman?


    Jocelyn had been watching the drama unfold with a bit of schadenfreude, but her heart skipped a beat


    at that remark.


    Suddenly, she knew what it felt like to miss a heartbeat She was even a bit touched.


    He was incredibly cool in her eyes at that moment.


    Willow’s face turned sour


    cide, youre not in her league. So just quit hanging around her Last warning: if you want to stay in the


    limelight, watch your


    Melvin didn’t care a bit about Willow’s feelings and walked away, pulling Jocelyn along.


    wes now following his fead, biting her lip, unable to hide her glee.


    Melvin turned and caught that glimmer of her smile


    Buy Melvin was in a bad mood.


    nstead? Jocelyn didn’t know why, but seeing him angry now was kind of attractive to het


    The way he had put Willow in her ce postier made her day. Though she had been scared by his


    ferocity, now she was viewing him


    fferently. Even his anger was cool.


    Pissed off by herughter, Melvin flung open the car door and shoved her in


    Jocelyn buckled her seat belt in high spirits


    Melvin, on the other hand, was fuming as he floored the gas pedal, and the car shot off like an arrow


    The speed was so fast that Jocelyn felt a strong push against her back, making her a bit nervous


    “Slow down, I’m getting sick.


    Melvin sped up even more.


    Jocelyn clung to the handle, fighting the nausea as the car raced toward Riverside Avenue He took a


    sharp turn and headed straight to


    the riverside


    A sudden brake made Jocelyn lurch forward, then m back into the seat.


    Her head was spinning


    The sun was zing at this hour. When Melvin rolled down the window, the hot wind rushed in, making


    Jocelyn ufortably furrow


    her brow


    Melvin looked at her coldly. “If I hadn’te what would you have done?”


    “I knew you woulde Jocelyn said calmly, getting her bearings.


    Melvin’s chest tightened at her certainty, he swallowed hard. “What if”


    “There is no what if with you. Jocelyn was sure


    Melvin stared at her, his breathing suddenly quickened.


    “You trust me that much?”


    “Yeah. Because I’m your woman, Jocelyn tossed his words back at him


    Melvin took a deep breath. In her focused gaze, he looked away with embarrassment, his lips twitching.


    “You’re that confident?”


    Jocelyn watched his subtle expressions with a smile, “Otherwise, you would’ve hung up on me a long


    time ago


    Hearing her slightly triumphant tone, Melvin was outraged again when thinking of that man pressing


    Jocelyn against the corner about


    to kiss her


    He reached out pulled Jocelyn close, and bit down on her lips


    Jocelyn cried out in pain, pounding on his back to resist


    But Melvin didn’t let up. Instead, he bit down harder, as if he wouldn’t be satisfied until hed taken a


    chunk out of her.


    Tears sprang in Jocelyn’s eyes. Melvin finally released her


    His lips were smeared with blood. He wickedly flicked his tongue across them with a devil-may-care


    attitude. His deep eyes were locked onto her with intensity. The sight of a tear rolling down her cheek


    tightened his throat Moving closer, he kissed away that single tear.


    Jocelyn reached out and pinched hard at his waist. But damn, the guy was in such good build that


    there was hardly any flesh to get a grip on.


    Meivin cupped her face and his lips parted slightly. Never try that again”


    All of a sudden, Jocelyn turned her head and chomped down on his hand. Melvin sharply inhaled but


    didn’t struggle, letting her bite.


    Not until Jocelyn felt her teeth sinking into his skin and the metallic taste filled her mouth did she let go.


    Both of them had a thing for biting, whether in love or in hate.


    They’d bitten each other just about everywhere. Lucky for them, they didn’t scar easily. Otherwise


    they’d be hideous to look at.


    ‘Satisfied now?’ Melvin eyed the teeth mark on his hand. She really bit the big one this time.


    But hey, she wasn’t much better off, with the blood at the corner of her mouth dried up, looking like a


    blood mole.


    He gently scratched at it, and the dried blood clung to his finger.


    Jocelyn stared at him, “Were you the incarnation of a dog?”


    Melvins replied, pulling out a Dssue to dab at her lips. He hadn’t really gone to town with the biting, jus


    she left a dumpling sized bite that was bleeding-that’s gonna leave a mark


    What a dog night.


    Jocyn didn’t give a damn about his pain. Melvin thrust his hand in front of her face. As long as thus scar


    ys, you’re mine. Behave yourself. No wandering thoughts. As long as I’m in your bed at night, I’m
