Chapter 532 - Confession

"Huh, why do I get goosebumps listening to you talk to me like that?"

The temperature in the room continued to rise, as did Lisa's cheeks. Even though the woman tried to look unaffected by Oscar's words, her body clearly rebelled against her wish. Her heart was beating so fast that Oscar could feel it thumping on his chest.

Without giving the man a chance to reply, Lisa continued, "I'm already sleepy. Too lazy to talk to people whose hobby is lying. I know you don't really like me, you just feel bad for me."

"What do I need to do to make you believe what I say, huh? I didn't lie to you! I swear I still have deep feelings for you." Oscar replied while looking at Lisa's lips which were still wet from saliva.

"Coming home in the middle of the night like this… Who are you trying to fool, huh? Do you want me to believe that you were really working overtime and not drinking with Indri? Are you asking me to believe that you still like me? How can I trust you when you treat other women like that!?"

Maybe because the fire of jealousy is so big, Lisa is strong enough to push the man's body away. She smoothed her hair and said, "I want to see William first. His body is still burning up."

For the umpteenth time, Lisa turned around and walked away. And yet again, she was blocked by Oscar. This time, the man didn't try to make physical contact with her, but just stood right in front of her. His taller body forced Lisa to look up.

"Wait, William is still sick?" Oscar asked in a serious tone. The look on the man's face was not as panicked as before. "You gave him fever-reducing medicine today, right?"

Lisa cleared her throat, "Earlier, after lunch and at night, I gave him fever-reducing medicine. But the heat hasn't gone down. That's why I'm going down to check the temperature."

Lisa walked past him and touched the doorknob of Oscar's room. Then in the next second, her body was hugged from behind again! 

"Ah-"

Without waiting for Lisa's reaction, Oscar quickly closed the door to his room with his foot. The man then turned her body and lifted her carefully, because the stitches on his arm still hurt. 

"Oh my God, can you let me go!" Lisa shouted while hitting Oscar's shoulder, "Why do you always have to mess with me…"

Lisa had said that she didn't want to fall in the same hole. But every time she met Oscar and saw that man's smile or his light touch, she was willing to welcome new wounds to her body.

"I can't just let you go, Lisa. If you keep denying that you and I both still have the same feelings, I won't let you go!" Oscar replied, his arms wrapped around Lisa's slender waist.

Again and again, before Lisa could reply to Oscar's words, her tiny lips were covered by the man's sensual lips! His strong hands managed to block Lisa's desire to escape from his embrace. 

"I swear_" Lisa covered her lips before Oscar could put his tongue in hers, "—Let go of me, you idiot!" She tried to push Oscar's body away but her efforts were in vain, "—You pervert!"

Lisa, who didn't close her eyes at all, could see the look on Oscar's face. The man's eyes were tightly shut and his brow furrowed. Oscar's hot breath fell on her lips, giving Lisa the chills. 

In her heart, Lisa hoped that she would not be as stupid as today next time. She shouldn't have barged into Oscar's room just because she felt guilty. If she didn't want to be pushed into the same hole, she shouldn't be curious about how deep the hole really is.

Not long after, Oscar broke the kiss. But the man didn't stop there. He explored her cheeks, jawline, and her neck with his still wet lips. Sometimes, Oscar would stick his tongue out and lick the sweat dripping on Lisa's neck.

"You don't have to pretend, I'm fed up with your pretending not to like it. Lisa, you and I know that you still have feelings for me." 

This time, Lisa couldn't help but sigh. She was tired of running away from the feelings that were actually haunting her. She had always wanted to tell the world that those feelings were still there. 

Like a loser, she didn't even dare to say that to the world or the man in front of her. She was so afraid of being insulted that she buried her feelings deep and hoped that those feelings would disappear in time.

But it turns out, as time goes on, her feelings are still haunting her more and more and they don't want to be separated from her heart. Lisa falls into the same hole again and causes another wound to appear in her heart. 

She stupidly let Oscar hurt her heart again and again. 

"You know that I'm not as beautiful or as rich as Indri. But why do you even like me?" Lisa asked quietly.

Without letting go of her embrace, Oscar walked back a few steps. Until finally, his calves touched the end of the bed, then sat down while hugging Lisa's waist. In the next second, Oscar made Lisa sit on his lap, then his body pressed against her legs.

"I know." Oscar whispered. "I know. It's just that there is only you in my heart. No other woman. Only you, Lisa."

Then, the sound of a warm and light laugh that escaped Lisa's lips filled Oscar's room. Her stomach felt warm after listening to Oscar's answer. She hadn't felt this happy in a long time. A feeling of happiness that could suffocate her chest, making it difficult for her to breathe.

Hearing Lisa's laughter made Oscar hypnotized and laughed quite loudly. Unlike her, his laughter sounded heavy. His clear blue eyes shone under the disbelieving gaze of the woman sitting on his lap.

"Crazy..." Lisa whispered in disbelief. Her right hand played with the end of Oscar's golden yellow hair. Unknowingly, she bit her lower lip as she watched Oscar close his eyes and sigh softly. "You're crazy, Oscar."

That night, the ex-husband and wife couldn't stay away from each other. Their hands never let go of each other, and their lips never separated. Then, under the thick blanket, their bodies moved to the rhythm of their beating hearts.

Maybe, Lisa would wake up regretting what she did tonight. 

But she could be sure that she was grateful for entering Oscar's room.
