He then dropped the lid of the box and picked at its contents with his long, slender fingers.
Looking at the contents of the box, Stanley's eyes darkened and the knot in his throat slid slightly as his mind began to fantasise about how these things would come in handy later.
At that moment, the sound of a door opening came from the direction of the bathroom.
Stanley put the object back on his fingers and looked up in the direction of the bathroom.
Violet had already finished her toilet and came out of the bathroom. She carried the hem of her skirt on both sides with both hands and walked in a graceful manner towards this side.
As she got closer and closer, Stanley's eyes grew darker and darker, and his gaze couldn't stop glancing at her, as if he was referencing something.
Violet felt it, her footsteps slightly paused, and a bad feeling rose up in her heart.
What did it mean?
Why did she feel as if he wanted to eat her up?
It's an illusion, isn't it?
Violet swallowed and looked at the man with some trepidation, looking into his dark eyes, her heart contracted, "Honey, what's wrong? Why are you looking at me like that? What do I have on me?"
She could feel his gaze not only on her face, but everywhere on her body, his eyes practically nailed it.
It made her wonder if there was something about herself that he couldn't take his eyes off.
"It's nothing, I just wanted to see you." Stanley's voice was low and hoarse as he replied, while picking up the lid of the box and motionlessly closing it to cover the contents.
Violet only felt that he was strange, "It's not like I haven't seen you for a long time, you make it sound like I've been separated from you for a long time."
Stanley hooked his lips, "Of course it's been a long time since we separated, that's why I wanted to see you."
Violet laughed at his words, "How come I didn't know before that you were so sweet-mouthed and could say these love words?"
She retraced her steps towards him.
Stanley put the box aside, then reached out and wrapped his arms around her slender waist, making her sit on his lap.
Violet also smoothly wrapped her arms around his neck.
Stanley lowered his head and gave her a kiss on her red lips, before saying, "So you know now? As long as you like it, I can say it anytime."
Violet smiled happily, "Good, then I'll wait for you to say a love word to me every day."
"Okay." Stanley scratched the bridge of her nose.
Violet's eyes were drawn to the box he had just put to the side, then she let go of his neck and reached for the box, "What's in here?"
However, her hand had just touched the box and before she could pick it up, Stanley's large hand reached over and pressed directly on the box.
The implication was clear: she was not allowed to take it.
Violet turned her head in surprise and looked at Stanley, obviously not understanding why Stanley was trying to stop him, "Honey, what are you doing?"
Stanley's eyes flashed, his voice still husky and sexual, "You can't look at it for now."
"Why?" Violet blinked, very confused, "Isn't what's in here a gift from Aimee to us? Why can't I look at it?"
"It's not that you can't look at it, it's that you can't look at it now." Stanley said with deep eyes.
It won't come in handy at night if she saw it now.
She will certainly find a way to get rid of the contents of the box.
So for the sake of the evening, so that the contents of the box could come in handy, he had to stop her from looking inside it now.
As Violet listened to Stanley's words, she only felt more confused, "Why can't I look at it now?"
Her eyebrows furrowed as she stared intently at the man, as if to see something in his face.
But there was nothing on the man's face, and she couldn't see at all what he was hiding.
This left Violet more or less defeated.
