Chapter 40 - Doubts

"Just use what you prefer to use in eating," Jianyu was talking about the chopsticks. He just wants them to enjoy the meal so he doesn't care if they eat using a fork and knife. Anastacia picked up the chopsticks and put food in Jianyu's bowl. Zachary and Cindy picked up their chopsticks as well. Ethan looked at Moriah when she picked up her chopsticks. Sensing Ethan's uneasiness, Moriah leaned sideways. "Use your fork and knife, don't be compelled to use chopsticks if you don't feel like using it." "I do like to use chopsticks but I don't know how to use them. I never tried to use them," he whispered. He was never interested in using chopsticks whenever they ate at a Chinese restaurant. His mom encouraged him to use chopsticks but he never did. H

The cab had been waiting for them when Ethan and Moriah came out of the elevator. Upon seating at the rear passenger seat the cab began moving. Ethan held Moriah's hand. "Are you okay?" "Yes, I am," she replied, however, her eyes were on the road. "Why aren't you looking at me?" Since this morning, after breakfast, Moriah's mood drastically changed. She was a tad distant and cold. Moriah looked at him with a faint smile written on her face. Ethan used both of his hands to hold Moriah's tiny face. "If something is eating you up, talk to me, okay?" Moriah nodded her head. "Okay."

Moriah wanted to spend time alone with Ethan so she sent a message to her mom that they won't be having dinner with them. "Ethan," she said as they were walking hand in hand. "Mm," he answered. "Do you miss eating western food?" Moriah asked him so she could give him a hint that she wanted him to take her out for dinner. "Chinese food tastes good and I don't miss western food, I liked baba's cooking," he answered to tease her. "Why did you ask?" He suppressed his laughter when he saw her reaction to his answer. "Nothing, let's go home," she said and walked fast. Ethan pulled her and hugged her from behind. "Are you craving for western cuisine?"&

Chapter 43 - He Failed Her Again

Moriah absent-mindedly entered their room and didn't notice Ethan, smiling at her. Ethan frowned when he was ignored by Moriah. She went into the bathroom and took a shower. When she was dressed in her nightie, she slid under the duvet still caught up in her thoughts. Ethan was thinking if she was deliberately ignoring her or just thinking something. He settled for the latter and kept on working on his MacBook. It was already midnight when Ethan decided to join Moriah on the bed. He slid under the cover and took Moriah in his arms. He was surprised when Moriah rolled and faced him wide awake. Her green eyes were sparkling, captivating the man. "You're still awake," he tilted his head to taste his wife's inviting lips. "Mm," Moriah hummed on his lips. "Did you wait for me?" Ethan spoke while he busily peppered her face, neck and shoulder with light kisses. "Yes," Moriah flushed with cheek-stinging pleasure, as if she’d been sunbathing too long. Tentatively, her hand crept to

Chapter 47 - Her Doubts And Fears Are Justifiable

Ethan carried Moriah in his arms to have a shower together. They heard a knock on the door just as they finished dressing up. Wordlessly, Moriah went to open the door. “Sorry to disturb you, lovey doveys, lunch is ready,” Cindy said, her eyes dancing with mischief. Moriah rolled her eyes and snorted. “We’ll be there right away, ma’am.” Cindy left while chuckling. “Hubby, let’s go,” Moriah tugged Ethan’s arm, but Ethan didn’t move. Moriah looked at him inquisitively, “What’s up?” “I want a kiss,” Ethan demanded, Moriah couldn’t help but chuckle. She really can’t believe that a man as cold and aloof as an iceberg will melt one day. She came near him and wound her arms around his slim waist. “Hubby, tell me. Did I really melt the ice?” Ethan looked intently at her before answering her, “Yes, your warmth did it.” Moriah’s heart breamed with immense joy and tiptoed. She pressed her lips on his and pulled herself away from him. “Come on, they’re waiting for us.” Ethan felt empty wh

Chapter 48 - PDA

After dropping Cindy off at the airport, Ethan and Moriah checked into a seven-star hotel in Shanghai. “Good evening, I would like to book a presidential suite,” Ethan said to the front desk receptionist. “Give me a minute, sir. I'll see if there's any presidential suite available," replied the receptionist, blushing profusely. Moriah could not resist smiling at the way her husband was affecting the receptionist. Ethan lifted his arm and possessively wound it around Moriah’s shoulder. “How long will you be staying, sir?” the receptionist asked after confirming that there’s an available presidential suite. “We’ll stay till the third of January,” Ethan said, Moriah looked up at Ethan in disbelief. She never thought that he intended for them to stay that long in the hotel. All she knew was that he just wanted to spend the night alone with her. If he indeed stayed until then, it would be the longest time they were together since they got married. A smile made its way to Moriah’s f

Chapter 49 - Am I Not Entitled?

“Wife, you are too serious, I was just teasing you,” he said while he chuckled. Moriah wanted to pretend to be offended, however a smile made its way to her face and Ethan, whose gaze never strayed from her, was quick to see it. “That smile,” he said. “I like it,” he leaned forward for another kiss, but the elevator stopped and opened. He muttered under his breath. “Bad timing.” Moriah stepped out of the elevator and in haste she went to their suite. She tapped the keycard on the sensor and opened the door. She immediately strode to where the phone was situated and looked at the menu. “Hubby, what do you want for dinner?” she asked while she covered the mouthpiece. “Anything will do,” Ethan wasn’t a picky eater and he doesn’t have any food allergy. Their food arrived thirty minutes after Moriah called for room service. While they were having their dessert, Moriah suddenly remembered that she was going to teach after the weekend. "After the weekends what are you going to do the
