The next morning, the sun was shining brightly.
Eliza slept soundly the night before. Usually, she would be very cautious around the Stone family, and she could never sleep peacefully.
Perhaps the sheets on the big bed were too comfortable. She could tell that it was of high quality as it was so soft and warm.
She rubbed her little face on the slips of the bed sheets. It felt so comfortable. She wanted to sleep for a little while longer…
"Good morning." The man’s voice was neither soft nor loud. There was a hoarse charm in his voice.
Was this… Tanner’s voice?
This must be an illusion…
Tanner looked at the dazed and silly look of this woman who did not want to get up, and he wanted to tease her. He pinched her cheek. Hmm... It was softer than he had imagined, and it felt good.
She could feel something touching her face, and Eliza opened her eyes reluctantly. Uh… It seemed like it really was Tanner.
She saw his deep eyes, tall nose bridge, sexy thin lips, sharp jaw, and a smile on his handsome face; all of which were highlighted by the morning sunshine sneaking in through the window. Everything looked perfect.
However… A thought suddenly popped up in Eliza’s mind, “Why is he here!”
Eliza was instantly awake. She was too careless. This was Tanner’s house. It was impossible he did not have the keys to the room…
It was another morning, and she was sharing the bed with him again. This same situation reminded her of that… that embarrassing morning not long ago!
Eliza was very ashamed of his behavior of climbing into her bed in the middle of the night, so she immediately moved aside to keep a certain distance from him.
“Mr. Deleon, this is my bedroom, please leave.”
Eliza's expressions were solemn. Her tone was cold.
The night before this, she slept soundly in his arms. When he saw how soundly she was sleeping, he couldn’t bear to disturb her beautiful slumber. The feeling of not being able to have her even when she was in arms reach… was very uncomfortable.
His desires were not met, and they were already burning. Seeing her cold and indifferent look… It immediately destroyed his good mood early in the morning.
If she wanted to escape from him again, she would have to get his consent. She did not know how to act like a wife at all!
He got up a little bit and inched closer to her slowly. When he saw that she was trying to retreat, he placed his long arms behind her so that she could not move backward.
He leaned forward and whispered into her ear.
“Are you going to pretend like you don’t know me again? You were the one who took the initiative last night.”
His gaze was burning hot. It was so bright that it made Eliza’s hair stand on end…
After he said that, he rubbed himself against her neck to smell her fragrance.
They were very close to each other, and the temperature between them suddenly rose…
Eliza was pulled into his embrace. She disliked such an ambiguous distance. She tried her best to push him away, and she subconsciously raised her arm to slap him.
The moment she raised her delicate hand, she sensed a wave of danger from him. She could actually see a storm brewing in his deep eyes. Eliza immediately lost all courage, and she froze.
However, she got what she wanted from her actions. Tanner let go of her.
Her body suddenly was free, and Eliza realized that her heart was beating fast. He was just too scary moments ago.
She heard him slam the door after he left. Eliza was still frozen in her spot, while her mind repeated the words he said before he left.
“Later, we’ll go to the Civil Affairs Bureau to finish the procedures.”
Were her dark days coming? She was going to marry this capricious man to be her sister’s substitute. She had not even divorced that jerk yet…
Eliza shook her head irritably. She had way too many troubles on her mind.
After Tanner left, Eliza slowly sat up. The flowers outside her window were still blooming. They looked extremely beautiful. However, for some reason, she felt as if something was off...
There seemed to be some warmth left behind on her neck. When she thought of what he said, she felt that he was implying something... Perhaps the previous night, she slept so well that she moved about in his embrace!
