Thinking of it, Elijah was afraid he was going to have a had time recently. He didn't want to take over LN Bar, but Evan Gray wouldn't let him go and would make things difficult for him. Elijah could bear it, but he could not watch his woman suffer!
But he was unwilling to take over LN Bar! Elijah squinted, fixing his eyes on Esther's face. He couldn’t bear to leave her.
With a sigh in a low voice, Elijah held Esther into his arms. "I want to turn you into a little person so that I can put you in my suit pocket, and take you with me at any time to ensure your safety," said Elijah.
"If only you were a magician!" Esther said, and a sense of tranquility surged into her heart as she held the broad back of Elijah. “I also want to become a little person, so that I can be with you every second.”
From the moment they entered the door till now, he had been holding her, nestling in the sofa.
"Thank you, Elijah," she spoke slowly.
"I don't need your thanks. If you do, how about a kiss?" Elijah chuckled, staring at Esther's small face.
Hearing his suddenly languid voice, Esther was slightly hesitant. Before she had time to speak, he quickly leaned down and kissed her lips while Esther was in a daze. There was satisfaction and contentment in his wild laughter.
Esther embraced his back and leaned her small face in his arms. Hearing his deep laughter above her head, she was a little shy. After all the hardship, they could still sit together, holding each other, making her feel like a dream.
Then she felt her head lifted slowly and her cheek fell into his hands. Whether the heat of his palm ironed her face or the burning red on her face ironed his palm, they would never know. Just for a moment, her mind went blank.
"Baby..."
Elijah drew closer to her, his warm breaths brushing in the nose.
But at this moment, the most moving was his dark eyes. There was a strange but also expectant emotion hidden in it as if they were going to say something.
The pair of crystal clear and moist thin lips had been close to her, only a small distance from Esther’s nose. But his lips were there, and the eyes were full of smile like water, and there was no next move.
Looking at her in his eyes, she was stunned. What would he do by looking at her like this? Her head was held in his hand, and she had to keep her chin up.
Feeling so strange, she blinked her eyes in panic, and she whispered in a hurry, "Elijah, I’m going to take a shower!"
He was stunned, and then he smiled.
Esther was dazed as she realized that what she said seemed inappropriate, but it was really what she thought at the moment.
He said no words, and she immediately got up. Unexpectedly, he suddenly bowed his head and kissed their lips. she was trying to struggle, but he raised his hand suddenly to surround the back of her head!
His warm eyes were full of affection, and the rolling tongue gently circling her lip from shallow to deep. They kissed each other affectionately.
He stuck his tongue into Esther’s mouth while she was in a daze. His soft tongue wandered in her mouth freely.
His eyes were misty and he couldn’t see clearly. In a trance, he opened his mouth.
"How long we've been apart?" asked Elijah.
"...” Esther was stunned, thinking about the question.
"Say something..." he said, and his lips were on hers. Esther opened her blurred eyes, looking into Elijah’s dark eyes.
The clothes on her were getting messy at any time.
"It's not just a few days! Three days!" She counted it. It seemed that she had been angry for three days.
"Three days?"
"Er!" Plus he left a few days ago, it seemed like more than a week.
Looking at her expression, Elijah sighed.
He felt a little sad thinking about her doubting him and she was angry when he returned from American, and she took the man in the video as him.
Subconsciously, he hoped that Esther could believe him. Even if she didn't, she should not give up him, but she left. She didn't know how painful and how hurtful he was when she left.
"Are you disappointed? Elijah?" Esther spoke quietly and looked at his clearly defined face. She chose not to believe a great man who did not care about her chastity and would like to do everything for her.
"Fool!" Elijah chuckled, staring at Esther’s face which was full of guilt. He lowered his head gently kissed her bright forehead. "You don’t know love. I just hope that you can understand the true meaning of love after being through something, which is absolute trust! Since we love each other, we must trust each other!"
"Yes! If my mother trusted my father, our family would not be broken!" She said slowly, "You know what? Philip is my biological brother!"
"Yes!" He nodded.
"You believe it?"
"He is your brother indeed!"
While she was startled, Elijah’s kiss fell on Esther's forehead and nose tip, and finally on the soft lips. They kissed with all kinds of affection so that the breath of them could not be separated again.

the writing is quite childish, but maybe it's just the translations...
