Fall in Love After the Flash Marriage novel Chapter 16

“...”

Watching the dark night through the window, Luke narrows his eyes and turns around at a crossing.

Around ten minutes later, he drives to a private apartment.

Jenny is sound asleep, so Luke bends over and gets her out by carrying her in his arms. She seems conscious, holding Luke by the neck with both arms and lying on his chest obediently.

Sometimes Luke rests in this private apartment if it is too late for him to go back home from work. The apartment is well-equipped and cleaned up every Saturday by a cleaner.

Luke puts Jenny on a bed and covers her with quilt. A warm hand drags him back when he is about to leave.

“Mum, please stop the ballet training...” Jenny mumbles with her eyes closed on the bed and grabs Luke’s arm tightly, “I’m so tired... I want meat...”

Her soft and cutesy voice stops Luke from pushing her hand off abruptly.

“Mum.” She brushes her head against his arm and continues acting cutesy, pouting, “Keep my company please...”

Luke goes speechless. She treats him as her mum, doesn’t she?

Luke is a bit in shock. He bends over, uncovers the quilt and tucks himself in. The moment he gets on the bed, Jenny closes to him.

Jenny is wearing an off-shoulder dress. The shoulder belt is rubbed off and much of her fair and tender skin shows. Her chest, making two arches, lean against his leg, and almost shows completely.

Luke accidentally catches sight of that. He instantly puts on a serious look and stops the breath.

He directly covers her with the quilt.

“No, I can’t breathe...” Jenny complains, kicking the quilt off fiercely. Her tender hands hold Luke by his slim waist; she brushes her head against his waist and says, “Hmm, the pillow is uncomfortable...”

Luke feels quite helpless about this girl.

...

Luke stands in front of Mrs. Lu and stops her from getting inside. He touches his nose and says, “I was working and had no time to clear it up...”

Mrs. Lu agrees but denies believing it.

Looking at his face, he’s so scared of her check in the room. He must be hiding some secret in the room!

Mrs. Lu has no choice but to step back since her grandson refuses to let her in. She walks to the table, carrying the breakfast, and says, “I made this porridge for you. It smells so great. Have a try.”

Luke somewhat breathes a sigh of relief.

He brought Jenny back home only out of the worry that she would be in danger outside. But he doesn’t want to be misunderstood.

Luke walks to the bathroom after making sure his bedroom is closed.
