He seemed genuinely surprised that she actually agreed.Even if it was said in a fit of anger.After all, she had always had excellent emotional control.She could get angry, but she never made decisions while furious.Because that would be irrational.And the consequences would be troubling.“Are you serious?”Yvonne sneered. “What do you think?”“I’m taking it seriously.” Blake picked her up and placed her on the bed.Then he began to pack.He didn’t really have much to pack — a lot of his things were meant to be left in Impelia.There were also staff who regularly cleaned the place.He picked up her suitcase, held her hand with the other, and said, “Let’s go.”Yvonne couldn’t help but roll her eyes — a beautiful, dramatic eye roll. “You expect me to go out like this?”Amusement shimmered in Blake’s long, narrow eyes. “Sorry, I got too excited and forgot.”“Get out.”“Okay.”Blake left the bedroom. Yvonne changed into a long red dress she had prepared earlier.She l
But in her one-bedroom apartment, there really wasn’t anywhere to hide.She could only sit at the desk.Caleb curved his lips and ate slowly, unhurried.Whitney wanted to go take a shower after a while.But when she turned around, his broad back came into view.It rose and fell with the movement of his cutlery.Whitney wanted to wait until he finished eating.But he was taking forever, and she couldn’t hold out anymore — she lowered her head and ran to the bathroom.Still, it was only a temporary escape.After dawdling in the bathroom for a long time, she eventually had to come out.“You finally came out?” Caleb’s voice was lazy and teasing. “Any later and I was about to call emergency services.”Whitney didn’t dare look at him, carefully walked to the bed, lifted the covers, and lay down.Caleb turned on the sofa and glanced at her.He chuckled.Suddenly, Whitney realized something.Wasn’t her hiding just a form of playing hard to get?They were already remarried — wha
Whitney looked over when she heard the voice.She didn’t know when they had wandered into the men’s clothing section.Caleb pointed at two suits in front of him and asked her.Whitney felt that picking out clothes together was a bit too intimate.But if she didn’t go along with him and triggered his desire to conquer her, he might not get tired of her anytime soon.She pointed casually. “The black one.”Caleb used to wear flashy clothes because of her.So now she picked a darker color.Besides, with his face and figure, even wearing a sack would look good.Anything would suit him.Caleb said to the salesperson, “I’ll go with my wife’s choice. She has great taste.”Whitney was rendered speechless.At noon, they ate nearby as well.They spent the whole day walking around this shopping street.Whitney was exhausted.She had never gone shopping like this before.As soon as they returned to the apartment, she collapsed on the sofa.Caleb, on the other hand, was full of ener
Whitney nearly choked on the egg yolk.A bottle of water was handed to her.She quickly took a big gulp and swallowed the yolk.Then she took deep breaths.When she looked up, she saw again the muscular lines on his body exposed beyond the apron.Whitney felt that maybe remarrying had been a mistake.But she really had no other options.It took her a long time to calm down.However, her flushed cheeks betrayed her.“Do you have work today?” Caleb asked casually, in a normal tone.Whitney shook her head.Caleb said, “Then come shopping with me.”Whitney was shocked. “You’re going to live here?”“Can’t I?”This wasn’t something she had any say in.Whitney fell silent.Caleb quietly finished eating as well.Only after they finished did he take off the apron and get dressed.Once everything was tidied up, he saw her washing the dishes.“There’s no room to install a dishwasher now,” said Caleb, standing behind her and reaching out to take over, but she avoided him.“I’ve
She knew that after remarrying, having sex was only a matter of time, so after a brief moment of surprise, she calmed down.She found her pajamas, put them on with her back to the man, then got out of bed to wash up.Caleb propped his head on one hand, watching her with interest.When Whitney came out and met his gaze, she quickly looked away.She pretended to be busy.Only then did she notice that he had cleaned the apartment, done the laundry, and even sorted and put the clothes in the wardrobe.She had no choice but to go look for the cat, only to see that its bowl had food, and there was water beside it.She paused, then reluctantly changed the cat’s water.“It sat overnight. Can’t let it drink that,” she mumbled, trying to cover up her discomfort.Caleb got out of bed.Whitney was caught off guard and bumped into him head-on.Even though she quickly looked away, she still saw... certain things.She took a deep breath.But she didn’t say anything.He could do whatever
Caleb had seen her drunk before.But he had never seen her truly wasted.She was clearly dazed.He changed her into pajamas and tucked her under the blanket.Then he went to wet a towel and came back to wipe her face and body.Whitney was restless, mumbling about how hot she was, pressing herself against him nonstop.“So cool...”Caleb closed his eyes.He didn’t want to take advantage of her.Even though they were remarried, he knew very well. She wasn’t exactly willing.She had no better option after weighing everything.Even if he did sleep with her, she probably wouldn’t say anything.But he didn’t want Whitney to have an even worse impression of him.Yet her hand was already...“Whitney!”Caleb nearly exploded.He grabbed the hand that had been moving around.“Open your eyes and see who I am.”Whitney tried hard to open her eyes.But what entered her view were his well-defined abs.Her brain short-circuited, and her preferences were obvious.She leaned in and k
