Chapter 64
Watching Ellinor blush in embarrassment. Theo’s smirk grew wider “Ellinor, if you want to be a good wife, you gotta learn to call your husband ‘honey “Call you ‘honey?” Ellinor thought about his suggestion, then scoffed, “Nah, I think I’d get goosebumps!
Not willing huh?
Theo’s face darkened, his hand on her stomach pressing down harder
Ellinor suddenly felt uncomfortable, she grimaced, “Ouch, be gentle!”
Because of her cramps, her voice was weak. The phrase be gentle in this room, where only the two of them were, seemed rather suggestive.
Both froze, looking at each other with stiff expressions.
After a moment of silence. Theo chuckled, “How gentle do you want me to be, hmm?”
His hand really did lighten up, tickling her stomach like a playful tease….
Ellinor felt ticklish and was sure this man was just messing with her. Annoyed, she snapped, “Hmph, you better take your hand off me and back off!”
Hand?
Theo leaned closer to her, “What are you so nervous about? Blushing like that?”
Ellinor put her hand on his chest, trying to push him away. “I’m not nervous, I’m just, um….
Hot
That word added another layer of suggestion to the already charged atmosphere.
hot…”
She was uncomfortable, her face red from being teased, she bit her lip nervously Her long lashes cast shadows on her large, teary eyes…
The usually careless Ellinor now looked so vulnerable, Theo’s eyes softened, his throat suddenly dry.
Fine, no more teasing!
He gave her a deep look, pulled his hand back and handed her a glass of water from the bedside table, “Have it.”
Ellinor took the water, “Thanks”
Theo got up and went to the bathroom.
Ellinor sighed in relief, today Theo was acting a bit off….
Meanwhile, at the front door of the Blanchet family home.
Veronica sat in her pink sports car, growing more and more irritated, and banged the steering wheel in frustration.
After a failed scheme, she had been scolded by her grandmother. In a bad mood, she went for a drive.
But now, she didn’t dare to go home. Seeing her brother’s car in the yard, she was scared, scared of being scolded again….
That damn Ellinor was her nightmare!
Ever since Ellinor married into their family, she felt like she was always in trouble. Even her doting grandmother was now constantly displeased with her, always urging her
to learn from Ellinor
Learn what from Ellinor? Her poverty?
As Veronica was feeling restless, she noticed a short, plump man sneaking around their front door…
Who was this?
Veronica got out of the car, watched for a moment, then walked over and asked, “Who are you? What are you doing loitering around our house?”
