Unstoppable Unforgiven (Shermaine and Joshua) novel Chapter 382

Chapter 382

While driving, Joshua turned to glance at Shermaine, his expression calm. “Sheary, we just did it last night.” He was implying that he wasn’t much more energetic than she was if she was feeling tired.

Shermaine pressed her lips together. When it came to that sort of thing, Joshua was always insatiable. She liked to think she had decent stamina, but with him, she was usually drained by the middle of the night–always the first to wave the white flag.

Joshua added, “Not just last night. The night before that, and the night before that too.” He’d certainly been paying his dues, night after night.

Shermaine rolled her eyes and turned away. She muttered, “Just keep your eyes on the road.” Then, she thought with a frown, ‘Maybe I was being a little paranoid. Maybe I’d imagined it. But if I hadn’t…!

They soon arrived at Roy’s place. The smell of barbecue greeted them the moment they stepped out.

Everyone there was from their usual circle. Ross had just been discharged from the hospital today, and Roy had invited him over. He even brought Danielle along.

Danielle sat in a wheelchair. When she spotted Shermaine, she waved her over. “Sheary.”

Shermaine asked, “So, when are you getting your cast off?”

Danielle replied cheerfully, “Next week.” Just a couple more days–she was almost there.

Over by the grill stood Ross, the ever–elegant heir, carefully tending to a pair of chicken wings. Since Ross clearly wasn’t very experienced at grilling, the chicken wings he was carefully tending to end up slightly charred.

By now, it was no secret among their circle that Ross and Danielle were officially back together. Their love story in Lightspring City had become a heartwarming legend among their circle–a much–told tale of deep devotion.

Shermaine walked over and began chatting with Danielle. Danielle handed her a cup of something warm and, with a twinkle in her eye, asked, “So I heard Roy fell head over heels for that queen of chaos, Molly, at first sight?”

Shermaine nodded. “Molly’s totally into guys like Roy.”

Danielle looked genuinely surprised. “Really? I thought she had zero interest in men. Turns out, she’s into delicate, pretty boys with pink lips and pearly

teeth.”

Roy did give off serious, soft, bunny–boy energy.

Shermaine took a sip of her drink and nodded again. “If nothing goes wrong, those two might actually work out.”

Just then, Joshua noticed the spread of raw skewers on the table. Without asking, he picked a few and headed over to Ross, who was manning the grill.

Tonight, everyone was paired up–except for Roy. Roy never expected Henry and the others to show up with dates. Left as the only single one, he felt a pang of loneliness. He sighed inwardly, ‘Damn, I really miss Momo.’

Feeling a bit left out, he recorded a video and sent it to Molly, who was in Ustrana, with a text. [Momo, everyone is here with their girlfriends except for me.]

Three minutes passed, and he received no

Roy: [Momo, are you busy?]

Roy: [Momo, I miss you so badly.]

reply.

Logically speaking, it was around 9 AM over there, so Molly shouldn’t have been too busy to reply to his messages.

Chapter 382

Over in Ustrana, Molly wasn’t working. She was swimming laps in her indoor pool. After finishing a round, she got out, wrapped a towel around herself, and grabbed her phone from the table. When she saw Roy’s video, she paused, slightly envious.

Because her friends, Shermaine and Danielle, were in it. It had been so long since the three of them had hung out.

Reading Roy’s message, her lips curved into a faint smile. She replied: [I was swimming.] Then, she instantly initiated a video call.

Roy hesitated for a second before answering, and the moment the screen lit up, he was greeted with the sight of Molly in a sleek black swimsuit, her smooth skin on full display.

Water still clung to her body, glistening as it slid down, and just below her collarbone, a small cross tattoo peeked out–subtle, but enough to make his throat tighten. He quickly averted his eyes.

The view was incredible, but if he stared any longer, he was afraid he might actually get another nosebleed. And that wasn’t an exaggeration. Roy had always been hopeless when it came to resisting Molly’s teasing.

Molly teased, “Didn’t you say you missed me? Then why aren’t you looking at me?”
