Chapter 122 - He Deserves Happiness
Jeremy froze for a moment. One moment he was seriously contemplating whether he should confess to her right then or not and the next moment, he is being kissed by her – the one he loves.
This is the first time she is kissing me when she is sober... She is kissing me when she is sober!
His hand holding her waist gently traveled to the back of her head and he held her other hand closer to his heart. Her lips were soft and they had a sweet taste to them.
He kissed her back.
Jerlina tried to pull back realizing what she has done. Only when he kissed her back did she realize that she has kissed him to stop him from speaking.
What have I done?
Sensing her retreat, Jeremy let go of her lips. He opened his eyes and looked at her. With a blush, she looked like a freshly blossomed rose in his arms.
"The kiss... I\'ll expl-"
Jerlina tried to talk to him about it, but before she could finish speaking, her lips were covered by his lips once again.
This time around, the kiss wasn\'t just the pressing of their lips. He started to nibble on her lips and his arm wrapped around her neck, pulling her closer to him.
His pine scent overwhelmed her and with his entire body pressing on her, she felt his warmth passing to her. He was scorchingly hot and surprisingly gentle.
As his lips played with her lips, she could feel the overwhelming love he had for her. His hands were slightly trembling, her hand on his heart could sense how fast his heart was racing and his gentleness as he held her made her realize how patient he is with her.
He\'s saying he loves me with this kiss.
Jerlina didn\'t know what to think of the kiss. But she did feel hot since she hadn\'t been kissed in a long time and his gentleness and his love touched her heart.
His tongue then gently traced over her lips and before she could decide what to do, he let go of her lips. His hand was at the back of her head and he looked into her eyes.
Tell me what you feel...
His eyes seemed to ask and Jerlina gulped.
"I think the next would be the parent dance... You\'ll be dancing with your mother, right?" she tried to change the topic and tried to get out of his hold.
"Oh, shit!" he grunted. "Don\'t move."
Jerlina wondered what made him uncomfortable since he looked a little... hurt.
"Why?" she asked and he pressed her waist on his crotch by wrapping his arms around her waist.
Yeep! That hard thing... Don\'t tell me he got hard by kissing me..? That too by this kiss? Hehehe!
"One more..." he asked to play one more song for them.
Jerlina could not control her grin. She pressed her forehead on his shoulders to stop her from laughing out loud. She even ground her waist against his to confirm what she felt was really his "excitement".
"Is it funny?" he asked. "And stop moving. You\'re not helping..." he hissed.
Who will understand his woes? She kissed him and he got too excited for that. And his unreliable little brother down there always has a mind of his own and is hellbent on humiliating him in public.
How can I dance with my mom like this? Ugh!
"It is funny..." she whispered in his ears. He noticed everyone\'s eys on them and she didn\'t even feel nervous anymore. "Are you that depraved?" she laughed in his ears.
"I am. So what?" his voice seemed angry. But Jerlina didn\'t mind.
"Didn\'t you hire that woman that other day? You\'re very needy, Joel..." she held back her chuckle.
"I didn\'t do anything with her as I told you before," his voice became serious and he held her chin to look at her. He wondered if she is still thinking that he did something with that woman.
"Are you-" he let out a short breath. "This is really not funny, Jerlina." He gritted his teeth seeing her holding back her laughter.
"It is..." she giggled. "I don\'t have my body part sticking out in an obvious way telling everyone that I got turned on just by a kiss, do I?"
"You little..." he pressed his lips on hers once more. She looked too cute with that playful smile.
Jerlina wasn\'t stunned and bit his lips. With a slight hiss, he pulled back and his eyes were filled with lust.
"I think it just got bigger..." she giggled. "You\'re an idiot!"
If kissing me makes him hard, why is he keep on kissing me?
"Shut up!" he grunted. "It really is not funny. It\'s because you bit my lips. It\'s erotic," he whispered.
"Okay..." she let out a slight moan in his ear. "I won\'t lick your earlobe either," she wetted her lips. "I heard earlobes are more of an erotic spot," whispered in his ears. Her lips grazed on his earlobe and she felt him flinch.
"You-" he hugged her close. "If you dare to make one more move, I\'ll stick my fingers inside you right here," his hand on her waist slowly traveled down and grabbed her tush.
Fingers?
"Okay, fine," Jerlina knew she has crossed a limit and she decided not to tease him anymore.

"They seem to be getting along well," Dr. Kruger asked Daisy.
She was surprised seeing them two dancing for the second song, unwilling to part. They were talking and laughing the whole time and they seemed pretty close. If she was just a spectator not knowing the story between them, she\'d believe that those two are in love.
Just some weeks ago, she was crying to complain about him and was on the verge of breaking down. And now she is genuinely laughing?
Is she not blaming him for her miscarriage now?
So... should I ignore that other issue now?
She got a little hopeful. She knew Jerlina is a good girl and other than that she has no reason to refuse Jeremy. She could see Jeremy loved her so much. If they get along well, she\'d be the first to celebrate.
And this is the first time she has seen Jeremy this happy and carefree. He spent as he pleased taking care of all the arrangements and it was good to see him enjoying himself.
He deserves this! He earned this!
"Lately, things have been going well between them, it seems... It is good to see them together like this, right?" Daisy had a bright smile as she patted Baby Cia sleeping on her shoulder. "What do you say, Scar?"
"They are getting closer... And Jerlina- she is not someone who can pretend well, right? This wedding is the way it is... I thought she\'d be sad or blanked out throughout the wedding as she cannot pretend to be happy... But something different happened." Scarlett whispered and tried to get Cia from Daisy\'s shoulders as Daisy\'s shoulders might hurt.
"What?" Dr. Kruger got curious.
