Chapter 284 Guilt Without Redemption
Chapter 284 Guilt Without Redemption.
Unforgivable.
Realizing his hand was still wrapped around her waist-realizing he had done so much more-James was consumed
with hatred and disgust for himself.
He closed his eyes in pain, as if scorched by tire, and quickly withdrew his hand from her waist, putting distance
between them.
He knew sharing a bed with her was already an offense,
But now, with nothing covering either of them but the blanket, getting up so abruptly and standing before her in
such a state was also inappropriate. He shifted, trying to keep as far from her as possible.
“Lily, L.”
He thought of last night-how she had been called over by Ashton out of concern for his health-and how he had
pounced on her like a beast, forcing a kiss on her, taking her innocence without pause. He wanted nothing more
than to kill himself.
He took a deep breath, his voice steeped in shand anguish. “I'm sorry. Last night, I... | was worse than
an animal.”
Seeing his phone on the nightstand, he quickly grabbed it and unlocked the screen.
She and her old classmate had been close. They'd already agreed to register their marriage once she finalized
the divorce and regained her freedom.
But now.
Because of the guilt and regret weighing on him. James's fingers trembled visibly.
Even though he could barely hold the phone steady, he still managed to dial the police.
The call connected quickly,
He knew reporting himself meant prison time, but his sense of justice wouldn’t let him pretend he hadn't
forced or hurt her.
He shut his eyes in pain, self-loathing radiating from every word. “This is James. Last night, | forced myself on a

“I'm at Water Pavilion Villa No. 008. You can carrest me.”
He actually called the police?
Lily was completely stunned by what he just did.
She had gone willingly last night. There was no way she’d let the police carrest him.
Even though she still felt unwell, she hurried to snatch the phone from his hand and said to the officer, “Officer,
please don’t believe what he said. There's no need to waste your resources on this.”

Chapter 284 Guilt Without Redemption
“My nis Lily. He and | are legally married. If you don’t believe me, you can check our marriage records. He
didn’t force me
I was willing.”
James was so well known that the officer recognized his nimmediately.
It didn’t take long for him to confirm that James and Lily were indeed legally married.
He couldn’t understand why someone like James would call the police on himself, but since Lily had said she was
willing, there was no grounds for them to intervene in a private marital matter.
Most likely just a little lovers’ spat.
After confirming that Lily wasn't injured, the officer ended the call.
“Lily, you didn’t have to defend me.”
James tried to take the phone from her hand again.
But when she had snatched it earlier, the blanket had slipped down, exposing a wide expanse of pale, tempting
skin.
Out of respect, he didn’t dare look. He quickly turned his head away and couldn't grab the phone.
Instead, he said in a low voice, “Yes, we're still legally married.”
“But forcing someone, even within marriage, is still a crime. | did something unforgivable, and | should pay for
ie.”
“James, you really don’t need to call the police,”
Lily was afraid he’d try again, so she didn’t dare let go of the phone.
Seeing the blanket had slipped, she quickly pulled it back over herself and continued, “Last night, I truly did go
willingly.”
