What Separates Me and You

Chapter 280 Are You Trying to Kill Your Husband

However, Lewis didn’t allow Josephine time to think. He let go of her, got out from under the sheets, picked up the clothes Conrad brought him, and took off the hospital gown.

He started changing right before Josephine.

Josephine’s gaze never left him. She saw the bandage around his chest after he took off his shirt.

Conrad was right; Lewis was injured, and his injuries were quite severe.

She was deep in her thoughts when Lewis suddenly glanced at her. “Like what you see?”

Josephine snapped back to reality, and her cheeks flushed. She immediately averted her gaze. Then, she heard a click as Lewis buckled on his belt.

Lewis put on his shirt and sat beside her, turning her face toward him. “I’m the one being seen naked, so what are you feeling shy for?”

They were sitting so close to each other that any movement could cause their lips to touch.

Josephine’s heart started beating rapidly. She turned her head, trying to avoid his gaze. She heard a faint chuckle. Lewis asked, “Have you forgotten about our marriage as well?”

Josephine was stunned. She subconsciously turned to face him, and their lips met in unerring unity.

Josephine’s eyes widened, and she tried to rise, but a hand wrapped around her waist and pulled her back.

Josephine was frantic.

The emotions in her were indescribable. She only knew she felt uncomfortable with this and had yet to adapt to Lewis’ face.

Lewis moved in for the kiss as Josephine sat in a trance, her mind blank.

His kiss started gently and gradually turned domineering.

Josephine clenched her fists intuitively. The pain from her palm woke her up, and she shoved Lewis.

She got up and took a few steps backward. Then, she saw Lewis supporting himself against the bed with one hand clutching his chest. He looked pale.
