Rewriting My Heart's Fate novel Chapter 498

I closed my eyes. Tears silently streamed down my cheeks in quiet surrender.

I tried to get up afterward. I wanted to clean myself in the bathroom. But the moment I took a step, my legs gave way and nearly sent me crashing to the floor.

"Careful!"

Ethan swiftly caught me by the waist and lifted me into his arms. "I'll take you to the bathroom." He strode forward without waiting for my response.

A mix of humiliation and frustration churned inside me, yet I was powerless. I had no choice but to let him carry me like a doll.

He ran warm water in the tub. As I stepped in, Ethan climbed in after me without hesitation.

"W-What are you doing?" I glared at him warily. He raised an eyebrow and smirked playfully as he settled across from me.

"Bathing together, of course. Isn't this normal?"

Fuming, I clenched my fists. I wished I could kill him. "Who does this? Get out!"

Ethan ignored me and leaned closer instead. He brushed his fingers against my cheek and rested his forehead against mine. "Just one more kiss. Just one more…"

Before I could protest, his lips claimed mine. I tried to push him away, but he caught my wrists effortlessly.

"Don't move. Be good…"

My heart thundered in my chest. A flush of heat spread through me as his closeness became overwhelming. His fingers traced the curve of my collarbone and lingered on my sensitive spots.

"Are you trying to come again?" I asked in embarrassment in fury.

Time blurred as exhaustion overtook me. Trembling and weak, I eventually collapsed into his arms. Tears were pooling in my eyes.
