"Just give me a hot night as a birthday present, how about it darling?"I'm sure my cheeks are burning hot right now. I didn't expect to hear that answer this morning, in James' sexy raspy voice after waking up.Last night when we chatted before bed, I ventured to ask about the gifts James liked. I chose to ask directly, considering James might have a special preference.When I insisted, he said he wanted something that money couldn't buy. And apparently... his wish really surprised me.Not that I refused. Every night, James always gave me a lot of pleasure, so I would give him the same. Whatever he wants."How's Sweety?"I pretended not to hear his question and was busy arranging the pancakes on the plate."Trying to ignore me, hm?" James stood behind me and slowly turned my body around. I wanted to look down, but James didn't let me by cupping my cheeks.My laughter broke out as James brought his face forward and kissed the top of my nose. "You're not good at lying."I could only no
James' birthday celebration was going to be lively.I stared at the building that had been decorated with a simple design, adapted to James' age of 41. The gray color dominated, while the main beverage was the finest expensive wine ordered by James himself.There was no birthday cake, just a jumbo-sized roast turkey placed in the center of the room, right underneath a hanging golden chandelier.James' birthday celebration party was more like a formal party attended by people from the upper class. My eyes are filled with an array of expensive suits and dresses, all shouting out their abundant wealth.Tonight, I'm wearing a sexy and elegant red silk dress, as well as the jadeite necklace James picked out for me. My hair is left down with a small clasp on the side of my head.James himself is wearing a luxurious black tuxedo. His hair is neatly slicked back, with cologne that gives off a distinctly masculine scent.We stood at the opening of the main hall for a moment. James took my hand
Overcast clouds hung in the sky and the wind came sweeping in like a blizzard. I shuddered and tightened my coat. With the end of summer approaching, it seemed like the frequency of rain would increase these days.James opened the door before I could do so, and he held out his hand. I accepted it with a happy smile, then looked at the towering building in front of us.This morning, James and I went to his office together. James wants me to take part in every meeting he has. That way, I can learn more about the business that James is involved in.James is a true workaholic. He does his job perfectly, leaving no stone unturned to make his clients feel unsatisfied. That's why at his age, he can already taste his success.I want to work with a competent person like James. And today, he intends to show me how he controls the company.When we stepped inside, the employees who passed by immediately greeted us. They bowed respectfully and greeted politely, while James replied briefly.Their e
All the employees stared in confusion as they were gathered on the first floor.I took my father's hand and stood next to James, while Jack stood some distance away. He just kept staring at his feet."As a new employee in my company, I want you to abide by all the rules," James said in a big voice. He pulled Jack closer and motioned for him to stand in front of my father. "I don't like employees who are trouble makers, let alone authority figures, when they're just 'regular employees'. Just because we're related, doesn't mean you can act like an overnight boss."James deliberately emphasized his last sentence and Jack's face turned sour.The employees started whispering, because they knew that Jack was James' nephew who was notorious for causing trouble. And on his first day of work, he had already made James angry.Jack would never learn from his mistakes."Now, I want you to kneel down and apologize to Mr. Lincoln."James gave the order and everyone stared in surprise, especially Ja
"Does it still hurt? Shall we go to the doctor?""No need." I touched James' hand and shook my head. "It doesn't hurt anymore. I just need to put some gel on it to make the marks disappear."James let out a rough breath. I could tell he was still angry about what happened. Even when we had arrived home, he didn't stop noticing my flushed cheeks. Maria had slapped me so hard with her big hand that it had left a mark on my cheek."I can't forgive her. Maria always does whatever she wants and I tried to hold back because she's my sister, but now, I really can't take it anymore." James chuckled softly, the inflamed resentment coming to the surface again.I squeezed James' hand and rested my head on his shoulder. I stroked his sweat-dampened chest, then my hands rested on his strong neck."I know you're very upset by Maria's actions. I feel the same way, but I don't want you to dwell on it like this," I said, worried that James would be plagued with anxiety every day. "How about you take a
I didn't expect the heavy rain this morning.After James left for work, I decided to go grocery shopping at the supermarket. Since I was starting to cook for him, I wanted to buy the ingredients I wanted myself. James wasn't a picky eater, but I still wanted to ask him what he liked.I sighed and sat on the bench in front of the supermarket. I placed two large plastic bags right next to me. As a conglomerate, people might feel surprised to see me shopping alone.I like doing this, without caring about what other people think.'I like your simplicity, the way you are'.Those words rang in my head again. I smiled as I recalled James' shady expression. Despite being his wife and holding all his money, I wasn't going to squander any of it. I just wanted to repay the people who had always insulted me.I reached out my hand, touching the cold water that was falling like an icy shower. My gaze moved to the opposite side of the supermarket, looking at the boutique that was open.There were t
I began to understand many things about the business and its intricacies.Over the weeks when James kept bringing me to his office, I started to help him with his projects.Maybe I'm not as competent as James yet, but I'll keep honing my skills. For now, he was focused on working on his new hotel project with an overseas client.So far there have been no problems, even Maria and Vivi no longer come to visit to make a mess. Jack has also refrained from causing trouble after being given a stern warning by James.I wonder how long they will continue to restrain themselves?"Are you done, darling? Nothing left?" James asked in the doorway, looking at me who had just finished changing. The beige blouse I was wearing had spilled quite a lot of curry, so I had to change it. James quickly ordered new clothes for me, before I could even ask him.He's very sensitive in every way.Especially this afternoon, we intended to stop by a restaurant for dinner together.I grabbed my bag and took James'
I got out of the car and walked towards the main door, a few people greeted me kindly. Then, the main door opened."Hi, Lizzie. I didn't expect you to come here looking for me. What's wrong? Did you miss me?" A young man with a messy appearance asked me. He smiled condescendingly at me.I was so sick of looking at his face. A few hours ago I had been relieved not to find him in the party crowd, but apparently he had been here first."I had expected that you would come back to me again to beg for my love. I'm impressed that you were able to know my whereabouts, until you found out I was at my uncle's house," he said. That man was Jack, he was my jerk ex-boyfriend. "Jack, watch your language! You should be polite to your uncle's wife." A grown man's voice was heard, I glanced back, and James was already here. Earlier he told me to go into the house first, because he was taking a call from someone."What? What do you mean, Uncle?" Jack looked confused.James put his arm around me intima

I got out of the car with James, and Maria quickly approached. From the hardened look on her face, I could tell she was angry.But what was she so upset about now?I didn't feel like I'd done anything wrong. There was no way she was upset like that because of James, either. I knew very well that the anger was directed at me, especially the sharp gaze that was now directed at me.Vivi came closer, her hands folded in front of her chest. She looked disgusted to see me together with James."Maria, Vivi, what are you doing here? Did something happen to Jack again?" James finally opened his voice at their silence. He pulled my hand towards the door, while Maria and Vivi followed behind. Their high heels tapped the tile floor very loudly. For some reason they seemed to be trying to vent their frustration."It's not about Jack, but your reckless decision, James," Maria said.James' decision?I frowned, but chose to keep my mouth shut. We all sat on the living room sofa, while James sent the
What should I buy as a gift?I lingered in front of the window as I thought of something James might like. James was always surrounded by luxurious and classy things, so I was at a loss as to what to buy him.Of course, James didn't demand me to give him a gift, but as his wife, I also wanted to celebrate his birthday.In three days, his birthday celebration would be held.A breeze swept across my face, then I leaned my head against the windowpane. The scent of petrikor filled my nostrils after the drizzle. I sighed and tried to think of another gift that money couldn't buy."Sweety?"The call made my head turn to James. He had just stepped out of the shower with a towel hanging low on his hips.My eyes involuntarily fixated on his abdominal muscles that contracted as James moved. James had exotic tan colored skin, and it only added to his attractiveness."Enjoying the view, darling?" asked James and I gasped, only just realizing what I was doing.James ran a towel through his wet hai
