Chapter 693
I was just putting on a show! Pierre thought.
"Pierre, don't ever touch me again from now on!" Selena growled at him as she was truly furious.
"Selena, don't you cross the line!" She knew that I was just acting, so how could she think that I enjoyed it? This is ridiculous!Exclusive content © by Nô(v)el/Dr/ama.Org.
"I crossed the line? I didn't let any man touch my thighs and chest or shoot me charming glances before. More importantly, I had never been in an ambiguous relationship with any man!" Selena rebuked. "Are you sure? Have you forgotten about Finneas? What was your relationship with him, then?" Pierre immediately regretted it after he finished speaking, for he could see that her expression had turned gloomy. Oh, no! Her previous relationship with Finneas has been a source of humiliation for her. I shouldn't have said that!
As expected, Selena fell silent throughout the entire journey. Pierre didn't dare to utter anything again as he was worried he'd make more mistakes.
It was already 11.00PM when they reached home. After checking on the kids, Selena returned to her bedroom.
Pierre didn't have the courage to speak to her. With a long face, Selena took a shower and snuck under her quilt. With a fawning smile, Pierre approached her and said, "Selena, it wasn't intentional. I accidentally mentioned his name because I was infuriated." Seeing that she remained silent, Pierre put on a servile expression. "Selena, shall we say we're even now?"
It was then Selena shot him a glare. "What do you mean, we're even? You allowed Mia to touch your chest and thighs in the private room just now. She was even sitting on your lap! What did I do?" "You didn't do anything!" Pierre responded quickly.
"So what did you mean when you said we're even?"
"Sorry, I said the wrong thing."
"Also, I was indeed in a relationship with Finneas, but the most we did was hold hands. We didn't even kiss! In this regard, I think I have a clear conscience. At least I'd saved my precious first kiss for you. Wha about you?"
"What about me?" Pierre widened his eyes. I didn't think I'd kissed another woman before her. After going through her words again, he realized that there was an innuendo in her words.
"I didn't fall in love with any woman before you." Pierre raised his hands. "I swear! At least you were in a relationship before, but I wasn't!"
After a snort, Selena refuted,
"Previously, you thought that you
elet
had bedded Meredith, and she'd given birth to your kids. All your family members also regarded her as your future wife. Since you thought you had made love to her before, how would I know if you'd bedded her again? Moreover, you might have had to pretend to be intimate with her in front of the kids."
Pierre widened his eyes in disbelief. She's trying to revive old quarrels now! It's been years since the incidents she just mentioned. She always says that I'm a jealous man, but why is she bringing up my previous relationship with Meredith, then?
"I swear I didn't do anything with her!" Pierre raised his hand again. "We only met a few times during that period of time. Yes, I admit that I thought I had bedded her because that was what she told me, but the idea of making love to her had never crossed my mind!"
Nevertheless, Selena remained impassive, as she didn't want to listen to his explanation.
"Selena, you have to trust me!" Pierre was considering if he should repeat himself.
"Have you heard of an old saying-it'd be better to believe that ghosts exist than trust a man's words."
"I-I swear. If I'm lying to you, I'll die a horrible death! My whole family will go to hell!"
