Chapter 31

Daniel and Freya walked to the school field together.The graduation ceremony was set up to be festive with two large balloons floating in the sky. The students were all dressed in graduation gowns. Their faces were glowing with anticipation and excitement for the future."Mr. Talbot." Michael hurried over with a bouquet when Daniel finally appeared.Daniel said, "This is my wife, Freya."Michael was stunned. When did he get married? Didn't Thomas say he had been stationed with the military?"Hello, Mrs. Talbot. I'm Mr. Talbot's assistant, Michael Yardley."Freya was slightly reserved as she glanced at Michael, who seemed to be around Daniel's age. "Hello, Mr. Yardley."Daniel took the bouquet from Michael's hand and handed it to her. "This is for you."The bouquet was a lovely mix of white roses and jasmine. She caught Daniel's warning gaze just as she wanted to thank him. The words got caught in her throat. "It's beautiful, and it smells lovely.""Mr. Talbot, the headmaster

Chapter 32

Harper's voice came through the phone. "Fae, has your graduation ceremony ended? I saw many people coming out, so I walked around but couldn't find you. I'm waiting for you at the front gate."Freya looked around but didn't spot her. "Where are you? I'm at the gate too.""I'm by the fountain. Do you see me?""I'll be right there."Freya hung up the phone and turned to Daniel. "My best friend's here. I'll go with her.""The one who took you home last time?"She remembered how he had mistaken Harper for a man last time, so she took the initiative and suggested, "How about I introduce you to her?""Sure."She then led Daniel over to meet Harper.The two friends hugged each other as soon as they met. Daniel's brows furrowed slightly with displeasure."How did you get here? I thought you were busy today.""The client canceled on me at the last minute and rescheduled the meeting for tomorrow, so I rushed over to see you."Freya sensed Daniel's gaze behind and immediately introduc

Chapter 33

Freya shook her head just as the driver announced they had reached their destination. They thanked him politely and stepped out of the car."Why did you shake your head just now?" Harper asked."We don't sleep in the same room."Harper looked at her in disbelief. "You two must have amazing self-control. You're married!"Freya was puzzled. "Does getting married mean you have to do that?""What do you think? Isn't his family pressuring you to have kids?""I've only met his grandfather, and he did mention it once. I haven't met any other family members."Harper remembered Terence's parents bluntly suggesting having a child within the first year of marriage when she met them. It had led to some tension between them at the time since she was just starting her career and wasn't ready for kids.Terence had a different view from her and constantly tried to move things forward. Those sweet words he had whispered to her during his attempts at intimacy seemed like empty promises now. She

Chapter 34

Freya looked at Harper with a questioning gaze. "Do you want to join me for dinner?"Harper couldn't help but laugh. "You silly thing. You're having dinner with your husband. You want me there to be the third wheel?""Are you sure you're not coming? He said we're going to an Italian restaurant. There's going to be risotto." They both loved risotto. "Besides, how could you ever be a third wheel? You're my best friend and like my family."Harper was moved by her words. "No, I'll pass. I still have some design sketches to finish up, so I'll head back to the dorm and get some work done."Freya made a phone call to Daniel. "Harper isn't coming.""Share your location with me. I'll go over to pick you up.""Okay," she answered sweetly before hanging up the phone.They packed up their things and waited outside the mall for Daniel. They saw his car pull up after making a U-turn.Freya knew how busy she and Harper would be with work. Although they lived in the same city, they wouldn't ge

Chapter 35

Freya let the warm water cascade over her when she returned home. She thought about how attentive Daniel had been toward her during dinner and felt she shouldn't so easily and comfortably accept his care.Certain thoughts would take root in the mind once they were sparkled.She couldn't help but think of the kiss in the car. Was he punishing her for thanking him, or was it because he genuinely liked her?His kiss under the guise of punishment was just an excuse if he had feelings for her.But what was there about her that would draw him in? Why would he like her?She touched her lips. The feeling of his intense and commanding kiss still lingered. He was at least far more experienced than her.He was already 30. He must have had a girlfriend before. Why was he single later in life?Freya realized her thoughts had drifted and quickly lifted her head as she let the warm water wash over her face. She must have been away from work for too long. Otherwise, her mind wouldn't be so full

Chapter 36

Freya remained silent at Daniel's words."It's only a matter of time for us to share a bed if you don't plan on divorcing me," he stated calmly.She licked her lips and was unsure of how to phrase her question. "So… About…""It's up to you." He was much more straightforward as compared to her hesitation.She calmed down after gaining his reassurance. "I have a few questions I'd like to ask you too."He responded, "Go ahead.""Have you ever had a girlfriend before?" she asked, staring intently at him."No." His expression was calm, though he felt pleased inside.She looked at his handsome face and was surprised that he had never been in a relationship with such good looks. Did all the women around him not realize what a catch he was?Yet she secretly felt pleased. She wouldn't have to worry about ex-girlfriends or unrequited loves from his past."Should I move into your room, then?""Up to you. I'm fine sleeping anywhere." She thought about the difference in cleanliness betwe

Chapter 37

Freya lay on her side with her back to the window and quietly watched Daniel. She felt her heart racing wildly.Was this what love felt like?Daniel shifted his position and lay on his back with one arm resting casually behind his head just as she was lost in her thoughts."Go to sleep." His voice was low and gentle, tugging on her heartstrings."Goodnight." She took the bolster she had brought from her room and hugged it tightly before closing her eyes in peace.Only when her breathing evened out did Daniel sit up.In the moonlight, he reached for a pack of cigarettes and a lighter that had been sitting untouched on the bedside table for ages.He remembered how she wrinkled her nose at the smell of smoke on him earlier this afternoon and decided it was time to quit. He tossed both the cigarettes and lighter into the kitchen's trash bin.He then took a shower in the bathroom in her room. Standing under the shower, he noticed all her various bath products and finally understood

Chapter 38

Only now did Freya realize Daniel was only wearing underwear. The striking outline of his private part was boldly etched into her sight.Her mind flashed to what she had read in books about men's erections in the morning. It was a normal biological reaction like her instinct to stretch when she woke up.However, it was her first time seeing it with her eyes. It was no longer just an illustration in a book or a specimen in the lab. She hadn't expected it to look like this. The elasticity of the corpus cavernosum was truly remarkable.Daniel's stern voice cut through as she was immersed in her academic research. "Freya, aren't you ashamed?"What? Ashamed? Was he seriously asking her if she was ashamed?It was his fault for not dressing properly to sleep, which was why she saw it in the first place.She liked sleeping without clothes too, yet she would still cover up no matter how much she wanted to do that. On the other hand, he slept as he pleased for his own comfort but dared to

Chapter 39

Freya made a simple sandwich for breakfast while Daniel headed off to work after finishing his breakfast.She spent the time alone in the study, working on her resume and browsing job listings from various hospitals on a job search application. She sent her resume to the hospitals that matched her career goals.It was already past 1:00 pm by the time she was done with that.She checked the performance of her completed novel on the author's platform. Although the book hadn't gained much traction during its serialization, it was now drawing in a surprising number of readers when it was already finished. Did people prefer reading finished novels?The editor asked if she had any ideas for a new book, but she hadn't found any inspiration as she was recently busy with graduation and job hunting. She decided to stop writing for now.She was content with the steady passive income from her completed book.Freya got up to make herself something to eat, wondering if Daniel would be home for

Chapter 40

Daniel returned home with an enormous bouquet and noticed the fresh arrangements around the house. It seemed they might be running low on vases."Why did you buy such a big bouquet?""Congratulations on landing a job.""There's nowhere to put it. I'll set it on the drawer by the entryway for now."Freya glanced at the bouquet again as he set it down.She had noticed flower prices today. A large bouquet like this with such elaborate wrapping must have cost close to a thousand dollars. "Let's not keep buying flowers. A large bouquet like this is quite expensive."Daniel gave a short response before returning to the room.He asked her about her new job at dinner, and she told him all the details before wrapping everything up by telling him, "It's a hospital I'm already familiar with, so I won't bother showing you the contract. I'll likely be signing it on the spot tomorrow."Daniel replied, "Okay."Freya arrived half an hour before her 10:00 am appointment the next morning.She
