All Chapters of I Accidentally Accepted The Male Lead's Proposal : Chapter 71 - Chapter 80

Ethan parked his car at the entrance of the industrial park and called Claire. Claire looked at the name flashing on her screen. After two seconds, she answered.“Honey.”Ethan's deep voice came through the phone.“Are you done with work?”“Just about to get off.”“I'm at the park entrance. Come down.”“Husband, you came to pick me up? I'm so touched! Wait for me…I'll run down right away.”Ethan hung up. The crease between his brows slowly smoothed out, and the gloom in his eyes faded. He kept his gaze fixed on the park exit.After a while, a tall, slender figure ran out. He stepped out of the car and walked around to open the passenger door. Claire ran up to him.It was already dark, and the dim light made it hard to see his expression. She wanted to say something but Ethan simply took her arm with his large hand and helped her into the car.“Get in first.”“Okay, babe.” Claire climbed inside.Ethan fastened her seatbelt before getting in himself. The car slowly drove away. Claire t

“I took the day off.”Claire glanced shyly at him before turning to Katherine.“Mom, are you tired?”Katherine smiled. “Not at all. I just dozed off for a bit and we were already here.”Claire looked toward her arm.Katherine raised her right arm slightly. “This one.”“You don't need a cast anymore?”“The doctor said it's not necessary. I just need to avoid lifting heavy things and rest more.”“Oh. Mom, let me help you walk.”Claire moved to Katherine's left side and gently took her arm. Katherine smiled, genuinely fond of her daughter-in-law. The two of them walked out of the airport together like that.Behind them, Ethan pushed the two suitcases. His deep gaze rested on the slender figure in front of him.Claire took out her phone to call a ride-hailing car. But since she didn't know the address of their new home, she turned toward the tall man behind her.“Honey, give me the address. I'll call the car.”Ethan took her phone, entered the address, ordered the ride, and then handed th

Claire's breath hitched, and she quickly turned her head away. Behind her, she heard the rustling of fabric, followed by a low chuckle.When she turned back, Ethan was already dressed in his sleepwear, gray lounge pants and a plain white T-shirt.He looked youthful, bright, and undeniably handsome.Their gazes met. His dark eyes curved slightly with amusement. Claire pursed her lips. "Even though we're husband and wife, you should still be mindful.""Mindful of what?" Ethan asked, still smiling at her.Claire shot him a glare. "Exhibitionist."Then she turned away and ignored him.A moment later, she heard the bedroom door open and close. Ethan had left.Claire was exhausted. She pulled the blanket tighter around herself and fell asleep almost instantly.The next morning, Claire opened her eyes and instinctively looked to her side. Ethan wasn't there. She reached out and touched the bedding. It was still warm.He must have come back to sleep for a while before getting up again. Just a

“Who are you chatting with?”A voice suddenly sounded from behind her, startling Claire.She instinctively hid her phone behind her back.“W-with... Sandra.”Ethan frowned slightly.“Then why are you hiding it? Are you that afraid I'll see?”Claire's eyes darted around as she hurriedly thought of an excuse.“We... We're talking about something private. Something you can't know!”Ethan stepped closer, looking down at her intently.“What are you talking about? You seem very nervous.”Claire gripped her phone tightly and briefly closed her eyes.“We were... talking badly about you.”Ethan raised an eyebrow and lifted her chin with a finger.“Oh? What bad things did you say about me?”Forced to look up at him, Claire's gaze flickered.“I can't tell you.”Ethan looked at her thoughtfully.“Wife, if I've done something wrong, you can tell me directly.”He suspected he had done something that displeased her, but she was too embarrassed to say it to his face and was venting to Sandra behind h

Ethan nodded, though his brows gradually furrowed. Pretty clothes and a great figure were meant to be seen by others?After a moment, he said quietly, “Can you just wear it at home?”Claire was still admiring the shirt dress when she heard this. She looked up, puzzled. “Why?”Ethan hesitated before answering slowly, “Your figure is too good.”Claire stared at him for a while until his ears slowly turned red. Then she burst out laughing. So that was the reason he hadn't wanted to buy it earlier.She glanced down at her own impressive figure. The shirt dress had been a little tight around the chest, perfectly outlining her curves. Hooking her arm through Ethan's, she teased him playfully. “Pretty clothes and a great figure are meant to be seen by others.”The crease between Ethan's brows deepened, his lips pressing into a straight line. Claire couldn't help giggling.The two of them continued strolling through the mall until they reached the entrance of a lingerie shop. Claire lifted he
