Hearing his words, Percy’s face went pale, his knuckles white as he gripped his phone, shaking with shock and excitement.
‘Brent is dead! He’s finally dead! I’ve been waiting for this day, Percy thought, feeling triumphant and stunned all at once.
Percy suddenly let out an eerie laugh. The veins at Natasha’s temples twitched. There was something indescribably strange about him like this, almost a little unhinged.
“Are you okay?” Natasha asked, her voice tinged with confusion.
Percy narrowed his eyes and suddenly turned to look at her. His eyes were stormy with emotion, barely contained. “You’ll soon see a completely different side of me.”
He said that meaningfully. There was a mysterious depth in his expression that Natasha couldn’t decipher. Natasha’s brows furrowed, a hint of confusion on her face. She couldn’t figure out what he was trying to say.
Percy was never for wild mood swings. He was always calm and collected. Having grown up estranged from the Grosso family, he had learned to be cautious after being brought back into their world, always keeping his real emotions hidden.
‘What has happened this time to make Percy show his emotions so openly?” Natasha wondered, her mind spinning.
But Percy didn’t explain a word. He turned on his heel and hurried out of her hospital room, leaving Natasha with a head full of questions.
When Natasha was discharged from the hospital, Jared came to pick her up in person. “The discharge has been taken care of. We can leave now,” Jared said, his voice soft as he reached out and wrapped his arm around her waist.
Natasha didn’t respond for a while. She was still thinking about the weird way Percy had acted when he left. Noticing Natasha was lost in thought, Jared gave her waist a sharp squeeze, hard enough to snap her out of it. Natasha let out a small cry, wincing from the sudden pain.
Jared leaned in close, his breath warm against her ear. “What were you thinking about?”
Natasha blurted out, “Percy!” As soon as the word slipped out, she realized what she had just said and immediately regretted
Jared’s heart gave a sharp pang. A flicker of hurt crossed his handsome face, “You were actually thinking about your husband?” he asked, his voice laced with jealousy. His chest was heaving, unable to calm down.
‘I was the one who rushed in and saved her when she was injured. I was the one who stayed by her side every single day she was in the hospital.
‘Where was her scumbag husband? He’d vanished without a trace, not giving a damn about her! And yet, she was still thinking about him. And she even brought him up right in front of me, Percy thought to himself, burning with jealousy.
“I, no, that’s not it…” Natasha defended instinctively.
Jared lifted her chin, forcing her to meet his gaze. Before Natasha could get another word out, he pulled her in and claimed her lips in a fierce kiss.
“Mmm…” Natasha’s eyes flew open in shock, a faint gasp slipping from her lips.
Jared kissed her like a wild beast finally unleashed, biting and claiming her with fierce, unrestrained passion. But no matter how much he tasted her, he couldn’t get enough of her.

Natasha could barely breathe, Jared’s kiss leaving her gasping for air. Instinctively, she tried to break free from him. But Jared’s powerful arms wrapped around her waist, holding her so close it was like he wanted to make her a part of himself.
Natasha’s pretty face turned bright red, her cheeks burning with shyness. She tried to push him away, but as soon as she did. Jared only held her even tighter, his embrace so close it was almost smothering.
Jared felt he must have been bewitched; he couldn’t control himself around the moment she mentioned her husband. His jealousy flared up so hard it nearly burned him alive.
He craved her so badly, it was almost unbearable. He was utterly obsessed with her. Every time his lips touched hers, he never wanted to let go. Even in his dreams, all he could see was her lips, her soft skin…
