My Gorgeous Wife is an Ex-Convict!

Chapter 89

Chapter 89

Grace tried so hard to control the direction of her thoughts. She had been the one to call him brother, to relegate him to such a role. Why would she think he would want to kiss her? Why would someone so handsome and so valiant want her in such a way?

“Do you want me to move?” he asked with his lips a hair’s breadth away from hers.

Was he asking her to move toward her or away? And what if this wasn’t what he wanted? Would that ruin everything

between them?

“Hmm,” he murmured and it was as if the vibration crossed the short distance between them. She felt it. And her whole body hummed with it. “You don’t know what you want.” He shrugged and stepped away.

Sensing she’d offended him in some way, she tried to explain, “It, uh, feels weird standing too close,” Grace said. And it was true. After the last few years, she had not been intimate with anyone. She’d kept everyone at a distance. Having him so close to her… it unnerved her.

“All right then,” Jason said easily and removed his hand. He

took a step back and tidied up the things on the table.

She let out a sigh of relief and stroked her own cheeks, which

felt warm.

“By the way, Sister, just now when we were standing that close, did you want to kiss me?” he asked unexpectedly,

stunning her.

Grace blinked owlishly and blushed. Had he read her mind? Was he gauging her reaction because he’d felt it too?

“Uh,” she sputtered.

“Is it a very hard question to answer?” he asked with a slightly

arched brow.

I, of course…”
