The sound of the rain outside was like sad music gradually lulling Emily to sleep. She curled up in a warm blanket, dreaming of her childhood days.She originally wanted to wait for Kevin to come home, but she fell asleep. The body supplements that Ryan bought for her looked like they contained sleeping pills. In just over a week, she found herself getting fatter.After two o'clock in the morning, Daisy's phone rang. When she saw Kevin's name, she immediately left the room, went out, and turned on the lights in both the living room and the yard.Knowing he would return today, she didn't dare sleep, closing one eye and opening the other. His wife is here, of course, he can't stay at the hotel.“These were bought by Lisa.” Kevin gave several large and small bags to Daisy and said.Daisy took them. She was so touched that her eyes turned red. Waiting for Kevin to go upstairs, she turned off the light, returned to her room, and opened the bags to look.Since working at Unicons Group, her
“Let's sit down and talk.” Jessica frowned, looking at her son with a helpless expression.“Yes.” Kevin replied and did as she said.These past few days, because she listened to her husband's advice a lot, her dislike for that girl was reduced by half. She no longer wanted to stop Kevin, but she didn't want to see Emily. It's best not to see, say hello or visit.After all, at first, she liked and loved Emily, but every time she saw Emily or heard about Emily, Daniel's pitiful image appeared in front of her, making it impossible for her to calm down.“Okay, I won't interfere in your love life anymore, but I also won't accept that girl as my daughter-in-law. So, even if you come to visit me, don't bring her back here.”“Mom…”“This is my final concession to keep our family at peace.”Jessica's eyes and determined tone made Kevin unable to say anything more, so he nodded in approval.He believes that after a while, the sadness will truly subside and his mother will love Emily again. He b
Seeing Lisa waiting for the elevator, Kevin immediately approached and asked about her wound. He guessed that maybe she didn't want her colleagues and customers to see her bandaged leg, so today, she wore a long dress that reached her ankles.“It's just a little pain. And you? Are you still in pain?” Lisa spoke gently.“I'm no longer in pain.” Kevin smiled.The elevator for the president is a private elevator, so after asking her, Kevin immediately walked toward Sara.The moment Lisa looked after him, she discovered that his ring finger was wearing a ring.That's no different from him publicly announcing that he's married. Why did her mother say that he wanted to hide this marriage?A trace of jealousy suddenly appeared on her innocent face, her hands clasped tightly, her whole body trembling slightly.The day Emily came here to look for Kevin, Lisa was busy with Venn going to the partner company to attend a meeting. Next, she and her boss went to inspect the projects under constructi
“Aren't you... aren't you still not done?” She stammered.“That's right, but a little cat came here to cause trouble, so I can't continue.”Although Emily couldn't see her face, she guessed that it was red because her whole body was hot like fire, and her heart rate was also increasing.Just as she was about to open her mouth to speak, the man's warm lips stopped her. He kissed very gently as if he was afraid that she would hurt, afraid that she would break, unlike the passionate, possessive kisses when they first got close to each other.Warm and sweet is what she felt, her slender arms unconsciously hugged him tighter.“Emily, let me see if you still dare to come here when I'm working in the future.”Kevin said as soon as their lips separated and in the blink of an eye, Emily was lifted in strong arms.She said nothing, obediently wrapped her arms around his neck, leaned close to the man's chest, closed her eyes, listened to his heart beating fast for her, and inhaled the fragrant m
“How's your work today?” Emily raised her head, looked at him, and asked.“Everything's okay. What about you? Do you have any pain?”“Do you still ask? You said you would be gentle and told me to believe you.”Looking at Emily's frustrated expression, Kevin couldn't help but laugh, his hand gently pulling down the collar of the person opposite him, looking at the kiss marks that had turned purple.When he left in the morning, these traces were still pink. He also doesn't know how to control himself when his wife is so attractive.“Emily, there's still a place for me here, right? This marriage is not just because of that mountain, right?” Kevin's finger moved down to where her heart was beating and asked.Emily didn't answer him but just nodded slightly. To be honest, it was because she wanted to help Kurt that she went looking for the buyer, Kevin.However, if it were not him but another man who made such a request, she would not accept it.Perhaps she will return and go find sources
The peaceful days passed gently. Emily's married life was extremely satisfying, but there was still one thing that made her sad.She wanted Jessica to accept her and allow her husband to take her to visit her parents-in-law.She wants to be filial to her mother-in-law, be able to cook some dishes for her, give her some gifts, and be able to go shopping with her like other mother-in-law and daughter-in-law couples.Emily also knew that as long as Jessica had not accepted her, there was still a thorn in her husband's heart that pricked him and made him uncomfortable.This morning, after having breakfast with his wife, he returned to the big house at his mother's request. Jessica wants her family to gather on weekends, chat, drink tea, and then eat lunch.Emily twirled the pen in her hand and made a mark on the calendar on the table. There are only a few days left until the anniversary of the day Kevin and she officially started dating.She wasn't sure if he remembered or forgot, but she
Just as Kevin said, on the first day of the week, he had a meeting until midnight.If he didn't have a wife, he would drive straight to the Gold Hotel instead of driving a long way back here.The moment he saw her with one eye closed and one eye open, wearing sandals and running out to greet him, all the fatigue of the day disappeared.“I'm very dirty, I'm covered in sweat.” He frowned when she jumped into his arms.“I smell good.”She leaned forward, kissed his chin, then took his briefcase and went upstairs with him.Although Kevin was happy, he didn't want her to stay up waiting for him and not sleep on time. He is a man and is used to this nature of work, but she is a woman.It was because she worked at a pub and stayed up too late that she was so physically weak. Daytime sleep is not equal to nighttime sleep.“Later, you should go to sleep first, don't wait for me. Staying up late is not good for you.” He took the pajamas from her hand, speaking in a tired voice.“I sleep fitfull
The following days, as usual, every eleven o'clock in the afternoon, Emily appeared at the corporation's gate and went straight to Kevin's office because now, all the employees of the company knew she was his wife.“I heard that pumpkin cures headaches, try to eat more.” She scooped a bowl of soup and gave it to Kevin and said.“Yes, it seems I'm old. Before, even if I stayed up until morning, I wouldn't have a headache like this.” He took it, smiling tiredly.After the meal ended, Emily quickly cleaned up and followed Kevin into the bedroom. She told him to put his head on her legs and then massaged his head.Long, soft fingers threaded into thick hair, gently massaging, causing Kevin's pain to quickly subside.Emily understands that men like him and Kurt always want to reach out to the ocean, go further and further, and don't want to stop.Therefore, she can only encourage and do these small things for him but does not dare to open her mouth to tell him to be content with the presen
