Finally. Elliot let go of his wife, only to see her blushing and panting in his arms. She pressed her head against his chest, listening to his strong heartbeat, and at sense of peace arose in her heart.
“How about you get some rest now? Lunch will be ready soon. If I accidentally starve my two babies, I will feel distressed,” he said with a satisfied smile.
Anastasia obediently left the kitchen and waited for lunch to be served after hearing his suggestion. Soon enough, he came out with her favorite lunch and accompanied her to eat.
“My jewelry appeared on the cover of a magazine. Since there will be an awards ceremony this Friday, I’m thinking of presenting the awards to my designers.” But, as the boss, she felt it would only be meaningful if she awarded them in person.
“Sure, I’ll go with you.””
“We managed to achieve so much this time and even received several foreign orders. The credit goes to Mason, and I need to him treat him to a meal
“Mrs. Presgrave!” Elliot angrily interrupted her as soon as he heard the name “Mason”. In his wife’s mind, Mason was a conscientious subordinate, but he knew well that Mason’s efforts stemmed from his unrequited love for his wife.
Anastasia blinked her beautiful eyes and saw her husband was so irate that he even it down the spoon. She hurriedly went put over to his side, sat on his lap, and wrapped her arms around his neck. She coaxed him gently, ‘Alright, I won’t treat him. I will just give him a bonus.”
Only then did Elliot realize he was being too petty; of course, he knew that his wife only loved him, but the name “Mason” had subconsciously triggered his jealousy. “Okay. How about we invite him to a meal together?” As he stroked her hair, his gaze softened a little.
Anastasia could not help but snort when she heard that. “Forget it! You’re way too intimidating. I’m afraid you’ll scare him off.”
He held her so that she could sit on his lap steadily. “Am I that scary?”
She sized him up, perhaps, in the eyes of ordinary people, he was scary due to his stern and inviolable temperament, but he would always be her favorite. She lowered her head and kissed his brow. “I love the way you are.”
At that moment, the way she looked at him became lustful. His heart skipped a beat as he looked into her eyes, and his voice became a little husky. “Why are you looking at me this way, Mrs. Presgrave?”
Anastasia blinked her beautiful eyes. “I want you to cuddle me and take a nap together.”
Elliot scratched the tip of her nose lightly. “Are you trying to challenge my restraint?”
She smirked and pretended to be innocent. I’m just asking for a cuddle.” Eventually, he caved as he could not reject her request at all.
“Dum dum, are you trying to make me go crazy by c*ckblocking me?” he complained in a low voice, and his black eyes were full of lust. Even though it was mushy and made her speechless, she loved that he called her “dum dum” because he was the only person in the world who could call her by this nickname.
