The Ceo’s Convict Wife

His domineering yet amorous kiss reminded Rosalie of the kiss that night when she was still bleary.

Both incidents felt so much alike.

“Hence, at the time… did he truly kiss me while I was asleep?” she wondered.

“So, do you insist on liking him?” His tone was sharp and severe.
