# Chapter 25: Jealousy by the Lake, Watermelon Kisses, and a Bedroom Promise
Hello everyone, it’s me again! How are you all doing? Today I will continue to walk with you and review Chapter 25 of "Seduced By My Ex's Divorce Attorney audiobook free". If you thought the last chapter left your heart racing, wait until you hear this one. It is a chapter full of jealousy, public embarrassment, playful heat, and a promise that makes Hannah forget she is standing in a park surrounded by families.
The chapter opens with Hannah watching Roarke from a distance, and already her mind is at war. He is talking to a much younger woman—Aspen—whose bikini strings peek out from around her neck, and who clearly knows how to use her body as a weapon. Hannah notices everything: every smile, every shift of weight, every step Aspen takes closer to Roarke. Roarke keeps his hands tucked in his shorts and never leans toward Aspen, but that does not stop Hannah’s imagination from running wild. She admits to herself that before she was burned by Todd, she would have marched up, slid her hand through Roarke’s arm, and claimed him without hesitation. But this is after. Now she keeps her distance, investigating, scrutinizing, and waiting to see if all men really do cheat.
Then Lucy breaks the spell. The leash slips from Hannah’s grasp, and her dog barrels through picnics, families, and innocent summer afternoons. A little girl tattles that “that lady swore,” and Hannah can only apologize as she races after Lucy. When she finally catches up, she finds Lucy happily greeting Roarke—the very man she was just spying on. Roarke pales for a moment, but he recovers quickly, bending down to pet Lucy and then giving Hannah a chaste kiss. He introduces Aspen, and Hannah plasters on her wonderful-to-meet-you smile. Aspen’s small, dainty hand slides into hers, but her eyes keep drifting back to Roarke.
Roarke introduces Hannah as his girlfriend. Aspen’s smile falls, just slightly, and she says she did not know. Hannah asks how the two of them know each other, and Roarke runs his fingers through his hair—a telltale sign that he is unsure how to answer. He says they are friends, that he helped her out once. Hannah’s mind immediately fills in the blank: helped her out with an orgasm, I’m sure. Then she considers that Aspen might be a client, protected by attorney-client confidentiality. Aspen jokes that Roarke is like a male Mother Teresa, and Roarke smiles tightly before ending the conversation. Aspen jogs away, but not before glancing back at them. Hannah calls her cute in a tone that means something more, and Roarke pulls her close, telling her she already claimed him. He likes her jealous, he says, and he will show her tonight how much she does not need to be.
Hannah tries to let it go, but the ghost of Todd still whispers in her ear. She remembers how Todd lied about working late, how he swore he loved her, how he asked what kind of idiot would cheat on her. She believed him then, and she regrets it now. Roarke has given her no real reason to doubt him—only one weird phone call and this run-in at the park—but Hannah’s heart is already too invested, and that makes her cautious.
The afternoon softens into a picnic by the lake. Roarke feeds her watermelon with cheese and crackers while she sips expensive Pinot Grigio. They lie on a plaid blanket, shoes off, watching Lucy play with children from a nearby cookout. Roarke teases her with sweet lines, and Hannah throws a cracker at his face. He asks whether she still wants to sleep at her own house tonight, then describes exactly what he plans to do to her when he gets her home: put her on his counter, slide her panties down, and bury his head under her skirt until his scalp is sore from her tugging his hair. The heat between them is electric, and Hannah forgets where they are—until his hard arousal presses between her open legs.
That is when she notices the children staring. A little boy asks if he can be next, then jumps on her, trying to pin her down. Hannah freezes, confused, until she realizes the boys think they are playing WWE wrestling. One boy counts to three, and they celebrate as if they have won a championship. Roarke finally understands and scolds them, demanding an apology. Then a little girl, still petting Lucy, calmly announces, “You boys are so stupid, they were about to have sex.” Hannah’s face burns. She denies it, but the girl remains unbothered. Roarke, ever the diplomat, sends the kids back to their parents and whispers to Hannah that he is glad for the interruption, because he cannot wait much longer to have her.
Back at Roarke’s condo, Lucy runs after Nickel the moment she is unleashed. Hannah jokes that he will regret having them there, but Roarke says he regrets nothing when it comes to her. His hands slide up her ribcage, and he reminds her of what he said at the park. He lets her choose: breakfast bar, dining room table, or bed. Hannah taps her chin in jest and chooses the bedroom. Roarke spins her around, lifts her over his shoulder, and carries her down the familiar path to his room. His hand is possessive on her backside, his fingers sliding beneath the elastic of her panties, finding the wetness between her legs. The chapter ends with Hannah in his arms, the promise of pleasure hanging thick in the air, and her heart still unsure whether she can fully trust the man carrying her.
## Reader’s Impressions & Star Rating
This chapter is a perfect mix of tension, humor, and heat. Hannah’s jealousy is raw and painfully relatable, especially because we can feel Todd’s betrayal haunting her. The Aspen scene is uncomfortable in the best way, and the WWE misunderstanding with the kids is both hilarious and cringe-worthy. Roarke remains charming and reassuring, but the mystery around Aspen keeps a small seed of doubt alive. I loved the emotional layers here—Hannah’s internal war between wanting to trust and fearing she is repeating her past. The bedroom cliffhanger is deliciously promising.
⭐⭐⭐⭐☆ Rating: 4.6 / 5 Stars
## Next Chapter Prediction
Chapter 26 will almost certainly open with Roarke making good on every word he promised in the park. The bedroom scene will be intense, intimate, and emotionally charged. But I do not think Hannah’s trust issues will disappear just because the chemistry is explosive. I predict a phone call, a text, or a morning-after encounter involving Aspen that will force Hannah to confront her jealousy again. Todd’s shadow may also return, especially if he learns Hannah is moving on. The next chapter will likely balance steamy romance with the growing question: can Hannah truly let Roarke in, or will her past keep her from believing in him?
