Ice and Fire novel Chapter 945

When Violet came to her room, she found that Greg had already retired for the day. Since her husband had not shown the decency of waiting for her Violet's anger knew no bounds.

She stormed towards his side of the bed and yanked his quilt with all her might. Sulking, she snapped at Greg, "Who gave you the permission to go to bed so early?"

"What's wrong with that? I have to go to work tomorrow. Besides, the earlier I go to sleep, the better it is for my health," Greg retorted casually, trying to feign a yawn which irked Violet.

"Then, sleep in the guest room. Don't take my bed," Violet seethed in anger, as she sat on the edge of the bed.

"It's not illegal if a couple shares the same room, I guess?" Greg argued with her, blinking his eyes open. Out of the blue, he pulled Violet onto the bed and pounced on her like a tiger awaiting his prey.

"You..." Violet tried to break free but failed in her attempts.

His face was close to hers and he could feel her warm, pleasing breath. Fixing his earnest, passionate eyes on her, he proposed, "Why don't we live together and never split up, okay?"

"Greg Xiao," Violet called out his name. "No more empty words I am telling you. You have to prove what you say with your actions."

"Okay, I will show you my actions right now," Greg responded with a sly smile. Just as he was about to kiss her soft lips, Violet pleaded in a weak tone.

"Greg," Violet cooed, "I am feeling very tired today. Let's go to sleep early, okay?"

When he heard her soft voice, he controlled his desires. Just gazing at her lovely face invoked a mixture of feelings in him. 'I want to give her all the love I have. I will pamper her and thus make her the happiest woman in the world, ' he pondered.

"Okay," Greg agreed tenderly.

On their king-sized bed. Greg held Violet in his arms tightly, and said softly, "Don't leave me again, Violet. Otherwise, I will break down."

"I will not leave you again," Violet assured him with a determined expression. "You are my support, the reason for me to live. I will never leave you alone."

Greg held her close to his chest.

"I want to go to sleep. Tell me a story, Greg," Violet demanded, as she closed her big and tired eyes.

"Got it," Greg replied. "Once upon a time, a boy fell in love with a girl. He did not understand why he had a crush on her and neither did he realize when he liked her so much. As time passed by, the girl's face and smile marked a presence in the boy's mind. He often saw her in his dreams as the two were in the same class..."

...

In the morning, Cherry got up very early. She freshened up and went to the kitchen to help Lily with the breakfast. Jackson got out of bed soon after his wife had left the room. After washing up, he headed to the yard for his daily excercise. It was one of his habits to work out in the morning. He had rigurously followed it for years.

Violet and Greg rushed downstairs. When she walked past the kitchen, she caught a glimpse of Cherry. She stopped and said to her mother, "Mom, Greg is leaving for work and I am leaving with him." As she said that, she moved towards the front door.

"Have breakfast first. It is ready," Cherry replied as soon as she came out of the kitchen.

"We're running out of time, Mom. Please pack some breakfast for us, and we will eat it on the way. Greg needs to drop by a hospital to pick up some important document before going to the XS Hospital," Violet said while changing her shoes.
