Because I Was an and He Threw Away 139

Chapter 139 Gave in to His Impulses 

A sudden jolt of shock ran through Emily, causing her to whirl around. There, right before her eyes, was Alexander with a face full of resentment. 

“H–How did you get in my car?” Emily blurted out, her voice quivering with terror. 

Rather than answering, Alexander moved closer. He reached out, clasped her wrist firmly, and with a strong tug, pulled her towards him. In an instant, they were so close that their scents intermingled in an almost intimate way. 

Emily’s eyelashes fluttered like the wings of a nervous butterfly. As Alexander locked eyes with her, those delicate, downward–sweeping lashes seemed to cast a spell on his 

thoughts. 

His voice dropped to a low, gravelly tone. “Come on, tell me. Why’d you give back what I got you?” 

Even though Alexander wore a fierce look, when he met Emily’s eyes, his tough demeanor melted away a bit. The grip on her wrist loosened involuntarily as he noticed the slight crease between her eyebrows, worried that he might have been too rough.

tight, you know. It’s just too much for me,” she said, looking at him helplessly. 

In the social circle, Alexander was well–known for being a ladies‘ man and also for his generosity. 

There were countless stories about him spending a fortune on 

women. 

And Emily had witnessed his extravagance firsthand when he went all out to bid on the bracelet at an auction. 

Emily’s words seemed to strike a nerve with Alexander. He tightened his grip on her hand and pressed his body closer. 

Soon, their noses were almost touching, and their breaths were coming in short, rapid gasps. 

Emily tried to pull back, but Alexander’s large hand clamped down on the back of her head, immobilizing her. 

She could feel the heat radiating from his body, like a warm fire on a cold night. 

Their lips were just a hair’s breadth apart. 

Panic welled up inside her. “Alexander, stop it! I’m Ethan’s wife,” she murmured, her voice barely above a whisper.

Alexander’s heart. 

He gave in to his impulses and lowered his head, capturing her lips in a searing kiss. 

The taste of cigarettes and mint gum filled her mouth. 

His kiss was forceful and demanding, like a powerful tempest sweeping through Emily, leaving her with no time to resist or even make a sound. 

Emily tilted her head back, left with no choice but to endure Alexander’s passionate kiss. 

Frustration got the better of Emily, and she lashed out, her fingers digging into Alexander’s waist with a vice–like grip. Her nails bit into his skin, but he remained as steadfast as a rock. 

When the pain became too much to bear, Alexander let out a low, throaty groan that sent a jolt of electricity through Emily’s body. 

The sound was so sensual that it made her scalp tingle. In an instant, her angry grip softened, and her hands started pounding on his chest instead. 

Alexander, with his superior agility, easily caught both of her hands with one of his own. He then guided her palms onto his chest, allowing her to feel the hard planes of his muscles. 3/6

Finally, Alexander released her, though there was a hint of reluctance in his eyes. A playful smile was on his face as he looked at her flushed face. “Well, sweetheart, how’d you like the feel of that?” he drawled. 

Emily’s cheeks burned even brighter. “You’re such a jerk, Alexander,” she snapped. 

Alexander held onto her hands tightly, not letting her pull away. His eyes locked with hers, and he noticed the way her lips were slightly parted and red from their encounter. With a smile, he asked, “Did my kiss meet your expectations?” 

Emily glared at him, her eyes filled with a mix of anger and embarrassment. “Let go of me first,” she demanded, her voice trembling slightly. 

Seeing the tears welling up in her eyes, Alexander realized he’d pushed her too far. He slowly released his grip on her hands. 

But no sooner had he let go than Emily’s hand flashed across his face in a stinging slap. “I’m not some woman you can buy and use as you please, Alexander. I’m a married woman, with a husband and a daughter,” she hissed, her voice full of indignation. 

Alexander’s head snapped to the side from the force of the

Looking back at Emily, his voice was cold and detached. 

“You’re the first woman I’ve ever encountered who’s so blind to opportunity, Ms. Carter,” he said. 

Emily let out a bitter laugh. “So, are you disappointed?” she asked, her eyes shining with unshed tears, but she held her head high, refusing to let them fall. 

Alexander reached for a tissue and gently wiped away the tear that had started to roll down her cheek. “I’m disappointed for you, Ms. Carter,” he murmured. 

Turning her face away, Emily said, “I’m grateful for the help you’ve given me twice, Alexander, but our accounts are settled. You don’t owe me anything, and neither do I owe you.” 

Alexander pulled her into his arms, his chin resting on top of her head. He held her so tightly that she felt like a prisoner. 

“You do owe me,” he whispered in her ear. 

Emily had no idea what he meant and didn’t want to waste her energy trying to figure it out. She pushed against his chest, saying, “I’m a married woman, Alexander.” 

She and Ethan were still together, even if they were on the verge of divorce. 

Alexander refused to release her. “With Ethan’s lackluster 5/6. performance, can he really make you happy?” he said, his voice
