Chapter 1546
Jackie’s lips were pressed against the side of her neck, and his breath was labored. “Trying to get me drunk.”
Violet did not know how to react to his statement. “It’s obvious that you’re the one who wanted to take all those
shots head-on.”
‘I’ve overestimated his drinking capacity. He’s this lousy, yet he wanted to keep up his appearance.
“Violet,” he whispered her name in her ear. She felt itchy on her neck from his breathing, so she tried to dodge his
face a little and replied in a daze, “Huh?”
His slightly deep voice was rubbing against the wall of her cochlea, especially in this extremely intimate
atmosphere, which would escalate things very easily and quickly. It was not that Violet was still a virgin and had
zero experience in that department, but she had only been with Jacob before this. She loved Jacob very much and

interpretation. She could not forget not only because he died at the age when she loved him the most but also
because of all the profound memories that he had brought her.
Whenever she thought of him, past memories would be played in her mind like a slideshow of intertwined
recordings of old movies. The traces of his existence and every scene he was in were like an epitome of his life,
which was very intense to her.
‘Ever since Jacob died, I’ve never thought about other men because they’re inferior to him. Even during the three
years I was married to Jackie, I had never been this intimate with him. He hated me, and I’ve never even thought of
it.
But now, I’ve breached through and achieved a new height in my relationship with him. This is an intimate
encounter like never before. And he’s drunk. A drunk man is more likely to go out of control and do absurd things.
“Especially when the other party is him, my ex-husband who used to avoid me as if I were a parasite or even worse,
a demon. ‘If things were to escalate between us, he might think I’m cooking up a scheme.’ Violet calmed herself
down and pushed him away from her body. “Jackie, why don’t you get up first?”
He let go of his arms a little and hugged her in his arms. “Headache.” Violet whispered, “You must at least let me
go first.” He murmured, “I’m cold.” Violet did not move anymore because he was really cold and shivering. She
stood in place and
let him cling to her. After a while, he stopped moving, and Violet could finally relax her stiff body. Moreover, she was
so sleepy that she did not have the mental strength to stay up anymore. She fought against her drowsiness but
gave in and fell asleep around the second half of the night. When she fell asleep, Jackie slowly opened his eyes and
stared at the person in front of him. He was indeed drunk, but being this drunk was just a lie. He pretended to be
asleep only because it was clear that she was guarding herself against him. He gently caressed her cheek with his
fingers. ‘She’s indeed a chaste woman. If she didn’t resist me just now and took the advantage to get it on with me,

my interest in her might have decreased steeply. ‘If she can allow herself to do so, she’ll definitely be able to treat
all other men that come at her as a temporary distraction from her loneliness.
But what I want are her genuine feelings. The next morning, Violet opened her eyes, woke up, saw the man lying
beside her, and sat up suddenly. ‘I was careless! I actually fell asleep like this last night! Violet got out of bed quietly,
planning to slip away before he woke up. She picked up her bag, suddenly thought of something, and turned to look
at Jackie, who was still asleep She rolled her eyes, took out the lipstick from her bag, walked up to the edge of the
bed, and applied the lipstick carefully to his face. On the other side of the wall, Nolan reached out and covered
Daisie’s ears. “You didn’t hear anything. Now go downstairs for breakfast.” Daisie snorted, turned back, and walked
downstairs while turning to look back at the room’s door repeatedly. She had obviously heard something. Nolan
glanced into Jackie’s room but did not stay for long and followed Daisie downstairs very soon.
In the room, Violet covered her mouth as beads of sweat rolled down her spine. She had slept in the same room
with Jackie last night. How should she explain it if what they had done were to be exposed! Jackie calmed down, let
go of her, got up, and walked toward the bathroom without saying a word.
