She was about to respond to Maggie when the man grabbed her chin and kissed her deeply.
Charlotte’s body trembled<b>, </b>and her parted lips were instantly captured by his scorching heat.
“Ugh-* Charlotte <b>resisted </b><b>in </b>his arms, and when she heard themotion in the <b>yard</b>, her body suddenly stiffened.
Afraid <b>that </b>Maggie might hear or see.
At <b>that </b>moment, even the breath paused.
Jaxson, seeing her suddenpliance, stopped resisting, left her lips, and said meaningfully, “Do you want me to sign? Move back in.”
Charlotte frowned, trying to see through him, but found that he seemed to be wearing a mask that <b>she </b>couldn’t see through no matter <b>what</b>.

He squinted<b>, </b>“Don’t you want

Jaxon nodded, “Come <b>back </b>with me now.”
Charlotte pursed her lips <b>tightly</b>, he had been dragging his feet on signing the papers, going to court would be troublesome, not to mention his background with the Hamilton family, if awsuit really broke out, he wouldn’t budge, this marriage would be hard to dissolve
