Ryan walked out with Freya on his back.It was normal to see a man carrying a woman in a place like a hospital.Freya was lying on his back. Only when a chilly wind blew past her did she wonder when Ryan had started carrying her.Was she being too dramatic? She had never had anyone carry her, not even when she used to feel weak from a fever.However, lying on a broad back made her relax. She seemed to have found someone to rely on and did not want to come down.Perhaps no matter how old one was, they would always wish for someone to rely on when they were sick.Only after Ryan put her down in the car did she mutter, “Are you tired? Am I a bit too heavy?”“Heavy? It didn’t feel so.”Ryan bent over to fasten the seat belt for her.Freya got a close-up on his handsome face and beautiful, long brows. Suddenly, her heart softened. At one point, she had the urge to extend her hands and wrap them around his neck.As soon as the idea struck her, a trace of disbelief flashed across he
Ryan walked in and saw the woman in the room whose hair was wet. She was wearing a pure white pajama shirt above her hip, and below were light yellow panties, with two fair, straight legs exposed.On top of that, the first few buttons of her pajama shirt were not buttoned, revealing half of her upper body.Ryan nearly dropped the porridge. Flames of passion began to surge up his body, and he began to breathe rapidly in spite of himself.“Ah…”His eyes met Freya’s. When Freya came to her senses, she screamed in terror and curled up underneath the blanket in a sorry state. After that, her face flushed red, and she went insane. “Ryan Snow, why are you still here?”“Where else can I be? I’ve been downstairs.”Ryan suppressed his discomfort and took a deep breath. He then placed the bowl beside his bed before stealing a glance at the woman under the blanket.The scene just now flashed across his mind once again.He shut his eyes in a rather awkward manner. When he opened them again,
Ryan turned Freya’s head around. “Do you know that if you don’t dry your hair in time after you wash it, you’ll get frequent headaches in the future? You’re an adult, yet you don’t even know how to take care of yourself.”Freya, who was having the flu, looked unhappy at being criticized. “None of your business.”“If it’s none of my business, whose business is it?” Ryan blew on her face with the dryer.“Ryan Snow, you’re so annoying.” She extended her hand and thumped on his arm, but it was not hard at all.Ryan’s body tensed up when he heard her coquettish voice.He thought to himself that she would end up torturing him to death someday.Indeed, it was not easy to dry her long hair. It took almost ten minutes before it was completely dry.Having eaten half of the porridge, Freya did not want it anymore.“That’s all?” Ryan frowned. “Eat a little bit more.”“No. I don’t feel like eating it.” Freya looked away and curled up on the couch like a kid.“I cooked the porridge myself,
After Freya threw up, she began to shiver all over and break into a cold sweat. She looked like she was in a state of prostration.She shut her eyes and heard busy footsteps in the room. After a while, Ryan went downstairs and soon came up again. He wrapped his arm around her and fed her antipyretic.Somehow, she eventually fell asleep.By the time she woke up, the sky was bright, and the heater in the house was switched on.She slowly sat up, feeling tired. Nevertheless, she was a lot more relaxed and comfortable than before.Ryan was asleep on the chaise lounge beside her. There was a thin blanket that covered him above his waist. He was wearing a green pajama shirt, which looked familiar to Freya. Only after a long while did she recall that Rodney used to wear it.The sunlight poured in through the thin window and shone on his tired, sleeping face. He was deep asleep. His fine, messy hair fell on his brows, making his face look even more clean and handsome.Freya was stunned
Freya blushed. She snapped, “Don’t you know how to use your hands to check the temperature?”“My hands are full. Even if my hands were free, they aren’t clean.” Ryan smiled and shrugged his shoulders. “What’s wrong?”“... Nothing.”Freya glared at Ryan awkwardly.“What did I do wrong?” Ryan put on an innocent expression.“... Next time, can you not check my temperature… that way?” Freya stuttered after being in a dilemma for a while. “... That… is usually done… between couples only… It’s too intimate.”“You’re saying that Rodney has checked your temperature like that before?” Ryan raised his eyebrows.“No…”“Did your ex-boyfriend do the same to you?”“... He didn’t either.” Freya suddenly felt dejected after answering. “How can you say that this can only be done between couples, then? You didn’t even do this with your ex-husband and ex-boyfriend.” Ryan laughed. “I really had no choice just now. I was afraid you’d think my hands were dirty.”Freya went silent.Fine. After t
Freya’s scalp tingled. “I… I don’t know. But do you really want to be with a guy? Didn’t you say that you dreamed of kissing someone and that person was a woman? You even felt it was not bad. It seems like… you don’t dislike women that much. Why don’t you try it out more? If it doesn’t work out in the end, I think I’ll still support you. However, sometimes, we can’t only prioritize our feelings. We have to think of our parents too.”After stuttering, she wanted to bite her tongue.Gosh, why did she mention that kiss again?Was she afraid that he could not remember it?While she was utterly frustrated, a faint smile flashed across Ryan’s eyes. “That was just a feeling in my dreams. I don’t know whether it’ll feel as good in real life.”“Maybe you can look for someone to try it out,” Freya said without thinking.“Who?” Ryan asked in a serious manner.Freya was stunned. She was stumped by the question. “How… How would I know? You can find someone who likes you to try it out.”Afte
Ryan opened the door with a smile. Before he left, he turned his head and reminded Freya. “I’ll be waiting for you to recover from the flu.”After he spoke, the door closed.Freya ruffled her hair out of frustration.Did she just agree to kiss Ryan?How did things turn out that way?Was she crazy?However, did she have to be so nervous?It would just be a kiss. She was already a divorced woman. What tough things had she not experienced yet? Why was she like this over a kiss?Ryan could just kiss her.Why should she be afraid of that?Freya might be thinking that way, but her mind could not calm down. To stop herself from thinking nonsense, she turned on the television in the living room. Just as she wanted to watch a new TV show, her phone rang. It was Rodney who was calling.Freya did not want to pick up the call at all, but she still clenched her jaw and picked it up when she thought of Dani. “I’m giving you half a minute to talk. If you want to scold me over Sarah again
In the official residence.Just as Rodney carried Dani over from the sitter’s hands, the baby started crying not long after.He became annoyed. When he came in the morning, Dani cried as soon as he carried her. He kept telling her that he was her father, but she did not understand him at all.To Dani, Rodney’s scent had become unfamiliar. She did not like strangers carrying her. Rodney then kept playing with her after she woke up from her nap in the evening. They managed to get a little closer, but Dani still did not want him to carry her.“Dani, I’m Dad. Don’t you recognize me?” Rodney was heartbroken. “When you were just born, you liked me carrying you so much. I was the one who put you to sleep every night.”Dani did not care. She kept pouting and crying. Her teary eyes glanced toward the sitter at the side.The sitter sighed as she watched.Heidi’s heart ached from listening to the child’s cries. She could not help but mock coldly, “Children are forgetful, especially those w
Behind the banana tree, Charity drew the leaves and walked out.She wore a discreet smile. “I didn’t expect Young Master Jewell to be so well-liked by girls. Girls these days are really bold and proactive. I’m old.”Looking at Charity’s pretty face, Chester could not help but smirk. “If you’re considered old, I’m even older.”“For men, the older, the more charming,” Charity said.“Really?” Chester suddenly grabbed hold of her hand and pulled it. “Do you think I’m charming?”Charity made a point to size him up. A moment later, a look of disdain washed over her face. “Not in the slightest.”Chester was exasperated. “Even if I’m not, I won’t allow you to escape my clutches.”As soon as he finished speaking, he leaned forward domineeringly and locked lips with Charity.Ever since she quit the entertainment industry, she hardly wore lipstick. He was not sure of the brand of the lipstick she applied today, but it was soft and smelled good.“Go away. You may kiss your girl…”Charity
A grand wedding was held at the seaside.The two couples exchanged vows, kissed, and promised to be lifelong companions. It was the happiest moment of their lives.When Charity brought the ring to Catherine, Catherine asked in a low voice, “Do you want me to toss the bouquet to you?” “No.”Charity rejected outright.However, Catherine did not force her. After all, she could tell that Charity was not as eager as Freya to have a wedding.Frankly, Catherine found it tiring to prepare for the wedding.“Alright. Although you don’t want it, it doesn’t mean he feels the same.” Catherine darted a playful glance at Chester.He was outstandingly handsome among the groomsmen.Some attendees of the wedding were under the impression that Chester and Charity were a couple, while some others were unsure. There were even a few pretty foreign girls who took the initiative to flirt with Chester, whereas some girls took out their phones to take photos of him. Charity took a glimpse of Chester
Charity was speechless.It was true that Chester could not do it with her.Was that why her good friends could look so calm even after hearing that she had spent a night with Chester?“What gives? Could he have done it with you?” As soon as Freya noticed that Charity was quiet, she asked with interest and curiosity.“You’re overthinking it.”Catherine said with a discreet smile, “Even if there’s something wrong with that part of his, he could’ve done it if he wanted to.”“Wow. Sure enough, you know everything, Cathy.” Freya chuckled. “Charity, you can get Cathy to teach you one day.”However, Catherine still felt a little embarrassed, and her face flushed red. “Shaun used to have a mental block in that aspect too, but he would still make me happy. If Shaun knows that, I believe Chester knows better.” After all, no one could beat Chester when it came to his experience with women.Charity was silent for a while before she said, “It doesn’t matter to me. I’ll let nature take its
“You haven’t answered my question.” Charity asked in annoyance, “Why were you in a hurry to get away from me?” A miserable look washed over Chester’s face. “If I hadn’t done that, I’m afraid I wouldn’t have been able to get hold of myself.”Charity looked down at the lower part of Chester’s body. “Is it because… you can’t control it anymore?”Her directness caused Chester’s face to turn grim. “Charity, do you mean that I have no sexual urges? There were homosexual eunuchs in the past. Although that part of mine can’t function, I can still feel the necessary sensations. When I see your sexy side, I still have the urge to hug and kiss you.”Once Charity understood the situation, she felt slightly more relaxed.After all, she was a woman and was under the impression that she had lost her charm in front of Chester.“Charity, next time, can I…” Chester suddenly bit his tongue and stared at her. “Kiss you?”Charity’s pretty face instantly heated up.When had she stopped him from kis
Charity never knew that the three of them could sleep so soundly. When she sent Cal to sleep sometimes, he would always wake her up several times in the night. Moreover, she would worry that he would kick off his blanket, so she would hardly sleep well.However, with Chester around, she subconsciously felt more relaxed as she did not need to care about everything on her own.Just as the dawn broke the next day, she was woken up by a kiss. “Charity, it’s about time to wake up. You’re going to be a bridesmaid today. You need to wake up early.”While waking her up, Chester kissed her for his own advantage.Charity opened her eyes in a daze. She still felt so sleepy that she did not want to move.“Are you planning to lie in?”As it was rare to see Charity so lazy, Chester secretly laughed. “Let me help you get changed.”By the time he staggered to her wardrobe and took out the bridesmaid’s outfit, Charity had woken up with a startle. “Why are you moving around? You should lie do
Charity was in the bathtub until she felt sleepy. Just as she was about to fall asleep, she heard Chester’s deep, gentle voice. “Charity, wake up…”She opened her eyes to see Chester’s face close up. Charity was exhausted. She woke up groggily, and her brain felt like it was not working. She rubbed her eyes. “How did I fall asleep?”Her hand felt slightly wet, and only then did she realize she was lying in the bathtub naked. Her body’s curves were vaguely visible under the red rose petals. Meanwhile, Chester was standing beside the bathtub with a fresh towel in his hand. That scene suddenly hit Charity like lightning, and the grogginess she was feeling immediately disappeared.She wanted to hide, but there was nowhere to hide in the bathtub. Her face blushed in an instant. “Who allowed you to enter without knocking? Get out.”“I called you, but you didn’t hear me.”Chester lied without flinching. “I came in because I was worried something happened to you. You’ve been in
“I should be the one asking you why you’re in my room,” Chester asked Charity as he raised his beautiful brows and smiled like a sly fox.“...”Charity glared at him. After exchanging glances with him for a few seconds, she carried her son and walked away.When she held the door handle, she felt a force grabbing her from behind.Chester stopped in his tracks and wrapped his hands around her slim waist. “Are you afraid that I’ll eat you up?”“You think you can do that, huh?” Charity turned around and glimpsed at the lower part of his body. “Can you do it now?”Chester’s handsome face stiffened, and a look of dejection washed over it.All of a sudden, Charity felt that she had gone too far by adding insult to injury.For a man, that was his greatest pride.“Since you know I can’t do that, what are you afraid of?” Chester gripped her waist. “Charity, stay here. All other rooms are occupied. If you don’t stay here, you have nowhere else to go.”Charity stomped on his foot. “Did y
“Suspect that the child is yours?” Shaun continued all of a sudden.Chester nodded.The more the child resembled him, the more afraid Chester was.He would rather the child bore a greater resemblance to Charity.Shaun glanced at Chester, who looked uneasy, and could not help but laugh. “As I said, onlookers see most of the game, and that saying is very true. Even Chase could tell that the child is yours at first glance. Do you think a clever person like Charity hasn’t noticed it?”Chester was momentarily stunned, and a thought flashed across his mind. He was a little perplexed, but he dared not give it a thought. “Do you mean…”“Perhaps she has found out about it long ago, but she just hasn’t exposed it.” Shaun said indifferently, “I even suspect my wife knows. Considering how smart she is, how could she not have guessed that Charity had used your sperm to get pregnant?”Chester revealed a strange expression, but he was holding on to some hope. “Maybe she didn’t guess it. They m
Catherine, Freya, and Charity were sitting together and chatting. When Chase went over, Catherine immediately asked protectively, “What’s wrong?” “Your husband is bullying me.” Chase hid behind Catherine and glanced at Shaun, who was walking over with a dark expression. “Move your paw off my wife,” Shaun warned with gritted teeth. If it were not for Catherine’s presence, he would have thrown Chase off the plane. “What are you doing?”Catherine glared at her husband. “Chase and I are friends. We’re besties. What’s with your attitude?”“That’s right.” Chase straightened his back with Catherine’s support. “I simply said you got lucky to be able to be a dad despite being so sc*mmy at first. Cathy even brought a set of twins back to you. I’m so much better than you guys, yet I still don’t have a girlfriend. Did I say something wrong? How unfair is this?”“Is he angry because of that?” Freya asked sarcastically. Chase nodded repeatedly. “Was I wrong?” Catherine threw the bag o
