Paint My World Red のすべてのチャプター: チャプター 31 - チャプター 40

(Red’s POV)“Aya’s here, Red. Why do you look so nervous?” Liam chuckled. “Your bride won’t run away.”I knew that because Ariana and Mike kept updating me on what was happening inside. Aya had signed the prenuptial agreement already, and she was sent to the guest room to prepare her for this event. The plan was a simple wedding in my office followed by a lunch with our families with Sherrilyn. Still, I could not ignore the fact that I already stole Aya’s dream wedding, if she had, and tied her to me, so I asked my sister for help, at least giving her a wedding to remember.Ariana told me last night to relax and leave everything to her and Mike while Liam and I were busy in the online meeting with the board last night. The event coordinator she hired had her staff work overnight, turning the covered swimming pool area into a paradise.When the music began, while I walked the red carpet adorned with flowers looking like they sprouted on the side, I could not help thinking about the gra

(Red’s POV)I raised my hands. “I’m sorry. I just got curious,” I lied.“Curious? Hmph!”Aya sneered at me again and placed a pillow on the bed’s headboard, leaning her back on the cushion and turning her eyes to the magazine she was reading. I might as well suggest to Ariana to give her a space suit, a good night dress to keep me sane at night.“Don’t take advantage of me, Red,” she sighed, tilting her head to glance at me. She looked cute, pouting her lips.“I’m just a man, okay,” I murmured as I tapped my pillow, annoyingly lying on my bed and covering my face with the blanket.“Red,” called Aya in a hushed tone.“What?”I almost growled when she tried to pull the cover from my face. My forehead furrowed, seeing the horror in her eyes as if she had seen a ghost. “Ariana said you haven’t changed anything in your bedroom for many years. Does it include your bed?” she asked in a hushed tone.I pressed my lips, suppressing a laugh, wondering why she was whispering. The main bedroom, b

(Aya’s POV)Red peeked from the canvas, gazed at me from head to toe, and stared at my face for a while. I swallowed hard and forced a smile, hiding the fact that I was trembling, nervous that he might come closer, and found out how badly I desired him.We had not known each other for a long time, but I had done crazy things I never thought I could. I got hired but fired the next day, pretended to be his wife, and just a while ago, I vowed before the officiant to stay committed and faithful to him for the rest of my life. I must be deranged, pleasing him with my mouth and sitting naked before him.The biggest lie I had ever said today was telling him he would not satisfy me, but with his eyes fixed on my rosy peaks, it was already proof that he could. I heard him groan when I licked my lips.“Argh! You’re making me crazy, Aya,” he snarled in a low voice, putting the pencil back on the side, and began walking in my direction.I squeezed my eyes shut when I saw him reaching for my shoul

(Aya’s POV)“You’re really crazy, Aya!” Addie rolled her eyes at me, keeping her voice down and tapping her girlfriend’s arm to avoid getting more attention from the other customers in the coffee shop.Leslie’s hands were on her belly, laughing hard when I told them what I did last night to Red. She raised her hand, wiping the tears that shimmered in the corners of her eyes.“Yeah! You’re crazy. Poor Red,” she said, catching her breath. “And the asset?” She wriggled her eyebrows. “I hope it’s worth your effort.”“It exceeded my expectations. It’s a real masterpiece!” I mouthed, winking at her.Addie shook her head while Leslie guffawed but covered her mouth when a few customers turned their heads at us again.“And the length?” I murmured and breathed out. “I think I’ll ask him to make the bed.”“Clean the bathroom, you mean?” corrected Leslie. “You’re blushing, Aya. Are you falling in love with him?”“Na-ah!” I shook my head. “But one thing I’m sure, my body’s screaming for him now.”

(Aya’s POV)Red was not lying when he told me he was in a meeting. When I opened the car door, his eyebrows knitted, and he stopped talking, so I had to hush the kids to be quiet. His bodyguards finally showed up, taking the shopping bags and placing them in the trunks of their cars.I breathed in relief, having a little free time to put the three kids on a child seat and check Green’s and Violet’s seatbelts. As I kissed the children, I had to explain in a hurry and low voice that I had to go to my night school. I ran different scenarios in my mind, and I would arrive at the same situation if I didn’t leave now, so I tore a page from my notebook and wrote him a message.“See you at home. Tonight’s my final exam. Got to run. -A”I placed it on my seat but made sure he would see it before closing the door and dashing to the road, running like there was a wildfire behind me. I did not even bother answering my phone because if I did, it would take time. When it went quiet, I knew the batt
