Chapter 1107

作者: Glazed Snow
Nathan looked up from the stack of files and glanced at Baxter.

"I've got a friend. He and his wife finally consummated their marriage…"

Before he could even finish, Baxter's eyes lit up. "Wait, you and Mrs. Lowe finally consummated your marriage?"

Nathan froze. "Are you deaf? I said my friend did! Not me. My friend!"

Baxter grinned. "When someone says 'I've got a friend,' that friend is usually themselves."

Nathan set the file down and leaned back in his chair. "Are you gonna answer my question or not?"

"Of course! Please continue," Baxter said, nodding earnestly.

"So," Nathan continued, "after they did it, his wife started acting really weird. She was cold and distant, and she said they should pretend it never happened so neither of them would feel pressured. I… Uh, I mean, my friend doesn't understand what's going through her head."

Baxter raised a brow. "Did Mrs. Lowe not enjoy the night?"

Nathan's expression turned sharp. If looks could kill, Baxter would'

    "Hey, Wendy. Where are you right now? Let's grab dinner tonight. I'm buying." Nathan's tone toward Wendy was easygoing. After all, they were good friends now. She had treated him to dinner once before, so he figured it was only polite to return the favor. Besides, after the mess with Ivy, Nathan needed a breather. Somehow, spending time with Wendy always calmed him down. "I can't tonight," Wendy said. "I'm with Bella." Wendy had been busy lately, so she barely had time to spend with her daughter. "Bella's with you now?" Nathan asked. "Yeah," Wendy said with a laugh. "We're at the amusement park right now. Stanley's here, too." Stanley? "I'll come find you," Nathan said immediately. "Alright, I'll send you the address." After hanging up, Wendy quickly texted him the location. Nathan set down the file in his hand, grabbed his car keys, and headed straight out. Half an hour later, he arrived at the huge amusement park. He scanned the crowd and spotted the family of t

    Nathan had always lived in this villa alone, so naturally, he hadn't prepared any contraceptives. And last night, well, he hadn't thought that far ahead either. Compared to his awkwardness, Ivy seemed perfectly calm. "Got it." Wanda beamed. "I'll clean up the room later. Breakfast's already ready. You should eat before it gets cold." Ivy smiled lightly. "Alright." Nathan and Ivy sat down in the dining room. Wanda came over with a steaming bowl of soup. "Mrs. Lowe, have some of this first. It helps restore your energy." "Thank you," Ivy said, then started sipping her soup. Nathan picked up his glass of milk, taking a sip while glancing across the table. Maybe it was because of last night, but Ivy somehow looked even softer and more radiant today, as if she was glowing from the inside out. Sensing his gaze, Ivy looked up. "Why are you staring at me? You want some?" Nathan coughed lightly. "No, I'm good. Thanks." Wanda chuckled. "Oh, Mr. Lowe doesn't need t

    The next morning… When sunlight streamed through the curtains, Nathan stirred and opened his eyes. He immediately realized someone was lying in his arms; soft, warm, and faintly fragrant. He looked down to see Ivy, sound asleep against his chest. The memories of last night came rushing back like a wave. Nathan closed his eyes briefly, feeling a twinge of disbelief and regret. So it wasn't a dream. He and Ivy had actually slept together. He couldn't even remember how long it lasted. It had to be close to dawn by the time they finally fell asleep. Ivy was still out cold. Nathan lay there for a moment, speechless. He had no idea what to make of their so-called marriage now. Just then, Ivy stirred and opened her sleepy eyes. Nathan looked down at her. Her usual cool expression was gone, replaced by a soft, drowsy sweetness that made her look innocent and adorable. "You're awake?" he asked quietly. She rubbed her eyes. "Yeah. Morning." "Morning." He hesitate

    Ivy nodded obediently. "Alright, I'll go take a cold shower." She pushed back the blanket and stepped out of bed, her bare feet touching the floor as she started toward the bathroom. But the next second, her ankle twisted. With a soft cry, she lost her balance and fell straight into Nathan's arms. He caught her by the waist, holding her close. "Careful!" Now, their bodies were pressed together, separated only by a thin layer of fabric. Nathan could feel Ivy's soft figure against his solid frame. That faint heat he had just managed to suppress came roaring back, spreading like wildfire through his veins. Ivy looked up at him, her eyes hazy. "I'm burning up… Please, help me…" Before he could react, she wrapped her arms around his neck, rose on her toes, and kissed him. Nathan froze. Her lips were soft and warm, tasting faintly sweet. The moment they touched his, sparks shot through his body. He quickly pushed her away. "You need to calm down!" Her fingers ti

    Nathan stayed under the cold shower for a long time. The whole night felt strange, and there was this burning heat inside him that wouldn't go away. He closed his eyes, forcing himself to calm down with every bit of willpower he had. Finally, he shut off the water, got dressed, and stepped out. The moment he came out, he saw Ivy sitting up in bed, already awake. He froze. "You're awake?" Ivy looked at him sleepily, her voice soft and hazy. "I heard you get up and take a shower. Didn't you already shower earlier? Why did you go again?" Nathan didn't know how to answer that. He gave a small, awkward smile. "Do I need to report to you every time I shower?" "That's not what I meant," Ivy said quickly. "Sorry," Nathan replied. "Guess I woke you up." He glanced toward the couch. "I'll sleep there tonight. You should get some rest." He was actually going to sleep on the couch. At first, Ivy had only seen him as a business partner in a family arrangement. Tonight,
