TRICKED INTO MARRIAGE - Season 2 Episode 49

Something that adults do?

Samantha’s mind went blank for a second, but her cheeks soon blushed uncontrollably when she realized what Timothy meant.

He was acting like a rascal all the time!

It was unfortunate that she had to ask his permission for that, but she was more than willing to make that small sacrifice for the sake of her dream!

Samantha took a deep breath. She then leaned slowly toward Timothy’s face and closed her eyes as she planted a kiss on his cheek.

At the very last moment, Timothy turned his handsome face and the kiss fell on his thin lips instead.

Samantha opened her eyes abruptly. “You—”

Timothy interrupted her as soon as she started her sentence and said faintly, “This isn’t enough.”

Samantha was speechless

“At the very least…”

Only four words came out of Timothy’s mouth and he had already wrapped his arms across her slender waist. After carrying her up to his chest, he kissed Samantha yet again.

Far from being a little peck like the one earlier, he gave a deep kiss that was strong, gentle, and revealed the entirety of his feelings to her. There was no longer any need to suppress his feelings and that kiss became a manifestation of his heart’s desires.

He allowed her to feel him without barriers.

Samantha’s first instinct was to resist, but did not dare to struggle after taking into account his wounds. In that brief moment of hesitation, she surrendered bit by bit to him.

She could resist Timothy if he ravaged her, but she could never resist his gentleness. Her breathing became heavier and heavier, and her head became dizzy as oxygen gradually began depleting from her brain. Her body soon turned limp and she could only allow him to do as he pleased.

It was rare of her to be so obedient and Timothy’s gaze darkened as a result. His big palm slid slowly along the hem of her clothes and they roamed around as his kisses moved lower…

Samantha was in a daze and she did not know where to put her hands and feet. She bumped against Timothy’s wound by accident and heard him groan very softly.

Her consciousness snapped back right that instant and her vision soon came into focus. She pushed Timothy away without so much as another word and asked nervously, “Are you alright, Timothy?”

The man gasped heavily after being pushed away and looked at her with reddened eyes. “Something’s wrong!”

Samantha’s voice started to falter. “Ah? I… I’ll call a doctor!”

Timothy did not loosen his grip around her waist despite her attempt to get up. On the contrary, he tightened his grasp and made her look incomprehensibly at him.

The man’s head was just above her and his hot breaths gushed all over her cheeks. His voice was low and hoarse as he said slowly, “There’s nothing wrong with the wound. It’s…another body part!”

Another body part?

Samantha blinked and finally came to a sudden realization. What other body part could it possibly be?

Her cheeks were already red from his kiss, but her entire face soon turned hot due to his words.

“You…” Samantha was both shy and angry. After taking some time to calm herself down, she could barely force out a sentence. “Your injury needs to heal, Timothy!!”

‘You should practice abstinence, understand?’

Timothy frowned. He was obviously unhappy, but he knew when to stop after seeing Samantha’s reddened face. From what he knew of her character, she would probably be wary of him during his recovery period and even avoid approaching him.

If that happened, the gains he made would not be worth the loss he had to suffer.

Then again, it was every person for themselves when it came to getting what one wanted.

“Does that mean…you’re okay with it once my injury heals?”

Samantha did not know what to say.

‘When did I say that? Can you please refrain from reading too much into what I said?’

“Even if you’ve healed…”

Before she could continue the second half of her sentence and say ‘I’m not okay with it’, Samantha noticed Timothy’s menacing look that seemed to say, ‘I won’t plan on stopping now if you don’t agree!’

Samantha could not help but grit her teeth and blasted him secretly, ‘You stinking rascal!’

Her eyes rolled around in her sockets and something finally crossed her mind! She smirked, opened her red lips slightly, then replied bluntly, “It’ll depend on your performance!”

A man might take a long time to get revenge, but a woman could do so within minutes!

Samantha viewed it as nothing more than an eye for an eye.

Timothy was startled because he never expected her to actually make the same remark he did.

Samantha seized the right moment to push him away while avoiding his wound. She got out of bed, backed three steps away from him, then concluded, “The decision stands! No, you can’t appeal!”

Timothy leaned back on the bed, adjusted his breathing, and made a tactical concession. “Okay.”

He would definitely put on a good performance once he recovered from his injury!

…

With Timothy approving her participation, Samantha began to focus on the competition.

The competition system this time is similar to a talent show. The first round was an audition, after which there would be three rounds where contestants advance after playing off against each other in terms of technical skill. Eminent anchors from the industry would act as judges for the first two rounds, but for the final round, it was those judges and the viewers’ votes that determined who the grand champion would be.

After all, news anchors had to face the audience, so it was very important for them to possess an on-air charisma and receive acknowledgement from the audience!

Samantha began to write her resume after understanding the competition system.

A very large number of people participated in the competition but only 30 would be chosen from the audition. Due to its very competitive nature, the resume was a stepping stone to pass the audition. Something had to stand out and pique the judges’ interest.

Although Samantha had gone to a good university, she had neither professional work experience nor had she ever worked in a large television station. As a result, she could only write down her part-time experience one by one.

Regardless of how she looked at it, the entire resume felt…a little plain.

With a laptop on her lap, her delicate brows were knit into a frown as she paused occasionally while she typed.

After going through the documents Ronald sent over, Timothy massaged his temples and looked at Samantha on the other side of the sofa. When he saw her looking all fidgety and anxious, he smiled gently and asked, “What’s the matter?” ”

Samantha said in a sullen voice without raising her head, “My resume doesn’t look good and I’m worried about not even making it through the audition.”

Timothy focused his gaze on her.

Samantha was not like that in the past. She performed exceptionally well in university. Even her professors praised her countless times with the belief that she would become a future star.

She used to be extremely confident too. At that time, she said she was going to apply to be an anchor of Lychee TV, and even if there was only one available vacancy, she firmly believed that it would be hers!

Had she not gone abroad in the past, she might already be a spectacular news anchor by then.

To think that even an audition could make her so worried.

Timothy felt a stinging in his heart when he saw Samantha like that.

He wanted to be the custodian of her dream.

“There is one way that you can definitely pass the audition. Would you like to hear it?” Timothy asked.

A way to pass the audition?

Samantha lifted her head from the laptop screen and looked at Timothy. “Are you….trying to get me in through the back door?”
