Kenneth was infuriated. “Natasha, are you thinking of taking advantage of me for free?”
Natasha was dumbfounded. However, upon careful deliberation, she thought there was nothing wrong with his interpretation of her statement.
Upon regaining her senses, she asked, “So, you think you're being taken advantage of?”
Kenneth pursed his lips and stared at her in silence.
Natasha took a deep breath and said, “The timing cannot be better. You can choose to leave now while nothing has yet to happen!”
Kenneth was instantly rendered speechless.
For some reason, she makes me sound like a jerk.
She started to close the door while he was still in a daze. “I'm going to change my clothes now!”
As Kenneth looked at the door shutting before his eyes, various images flashed across his
mind. Bang! He suddenly reached out and stopped the door from being completely closed at the final second.
Natasha was stunned. Then, she looked up at him. “Is there anything else?”
Kenneth bore his eyes into her. Her words had undoubtedly angered him, but then, he was reminded of how they drifted apart after their previous discussion ended on an unhappy note. It was easy for them to engage in an argument, but the reconciliation process was tough.
He truly did not desire to stay mad at her because he was not fond of that feeling.
At that thought, he suppressed the discomfort churning within him and stared at her. “Your suggestion is not completely unacceptable.”
Natasha was dumbstruck.
“What do you mean?” she asked. What is he playing at now?
Kenneth pushed the door open and said, “In this case, Natasha, shouldn't you act more mature and quit dithering?”
“What?”
He strode into the room and locked the door behind him, all the while boring his eyes into her.
She looked at him in utter perplexity.
Kenneth stepped closer to her. “I accept your suggestion. Therefore, shouldn't something happen between us now?” he asked.
Natasha kept her mouth shut.
“We should do something gratifying to adults. Otherwise, we would be wasting your proposal,” he added.
Natasha had made up that speech as an excuse to brush Kenneth off. She did not expect him to pursue that issue further. She also knew her words would irritate him, but little did she anticipate his sudden change in attitude.
She gazed at him, not knowing how to respond at that moment.
He regarded her with gleaming eyes. “Don't worry. My stamina is still good.
I should be able to satisfy you.”
Natasha was rendered speechless.
“Do you want to take the initiative, or should I take the lead?” A hint of displeasure laced his deep voice as he uttered in a slightly intrigued tone.
Sensing her silence, Kenneth said, “All right. I'll take the lead then.” With that, he strode forward. Natasha instinctively took a few steps back, and Kenneth conveniently pressed her onto the bed, following her motion.
They stared into one another's eyes in close proximity, to the extent of being able to listen to each other's breathing sounds.
Natasha's long eyelashes trembled as she sensed his breathing turned labored.
At that same time, Kenneth leaned forward and slowly appreciated the alluring sight of her delicate forehead, eyebrows, eyes, nose, and mouth.
He gulped and gradually leaned in.
Just as his lips were about to make contact with hers, she piped up, “Kenneth, the three kids are home.”
Kenneth froze.
He shifted his gaze and met her eyes, glinting with determination.
