The Genius Ex-Wife’s Revenge Portfolio novel Chapter 431

She’d already slipped off her jacket, leaving her in just her underwear.

“Ah… mmmph!” Lilly started to cry out, but Jace quickly covered her mouth with his hand.

“Be quiet. My mom and little sister will hear. Unless you want them to walk in and see us?”

Lilly’s big eyes blinked up at him, startled. She pried his hand away and whispered, “I’ll be quiet, just let me go.”

Jace released her, and Lilly slid down from his lap.

As she moved, her hand brushed up against something hard. It wasn’t the first time she’d noticed it, but curiosity got the better of her. She reached out, touching it. “What’s this?”

“Lilly, don’t!” Jace tried to grab her hand, but she was too quick.

He froze, his whole body tense, a flush coloring his cheeks and the corners of his eyes.

Then it clicked for Lilly. Her mind went blank, heat rushing up to her ears as she stumbled back, wide-eyed. “You…”

Jace saw her innocent shock and immediately turned around and left the room.

Lilly stood there, stunned in silence.

Oh my god, what did she just do?

Her hands shot up to cover her bright red cheeks. She felt like she could die from embarrassment.

Jace was already out the door when Lilly called after him. “Jace!”

He stopped in the hallway.

“I’m scared the mouse will come back. Can you wait by the door while I shower? I’ll be quick, promise.”

There was no way Jace could say no. “Alright.”

The sound of running water filled the bathroom as Lilly showered.

Jace leaned against the window, letting the cool night air clear his head. The soft sweetness filling his house was way too tempting, and he hated how easily he’d lost control.
