When everything was over, it was already dusk.
Hannah was so worn out she could hardly move a finger, but her tongue was still sharp as a razor, "President Dixon, does your sweetheart not let you touch her? Judging by your thirstiness today, anyone who doesn't know you would think you haven't had a decent sex in a while."
Steven was a man of strong desires and he never skimped on himself. Back when Hannah and Steven were together, he often left her spent, but he had never been as wild as he was today.
Today, Steven was like a wolf that had been starved for a long time and finally got some food. His frenzy seemed to want to devour her.
With his eyes closed, Steven held her tightly in his arms, "Do you still have the strength?"
"Does my strength matter?" Hannah asked. Hadn't he always been the one putting in all the effort?
Steven didn't say anything more, he just held Hannah tighter in his arms, allowing her to lean on his chest.
Hannah didn't want to be like this, so she started struggling. "Steven, I feel uncomfortable. I need to take a bath, let go of me first."
"Let's take it together later." Steven didn't let go, but held her even tighter.
Hannah refused, "No!"
Taking a bath together with him, could that still be considered a bath? Most likely, he would take the opportunity to take advantage of her again.
That was how it was at noon. After they finished in the hallway, he carried her into the bathroom, and then...
How pathetic. Despite her reluctance, she still had feelings for him.
Perhaps the real reason was that Hannah met Steven during her adolescence. She knew the real reason he was with her, she knew he didn't love her, but she still fell for him, even deluded herself that he could fall for her too.
She could clearly remember when she first saw him, she was just nineteen, and had a lot of dreams about the world and love. One day, after they had sex, she lay in his arms and told him, "Steven, I like you, you'll like me too, right? Even if you like someone else now, with time, you'll definitely fall for me. After all, we're legally married."
A real couple! In name! In reality! So, she felt he should like her.
How did he respond to her then? Hannah tried to forget Steven's response, but after all these years, she still couldn't forget the look in Steven's eyes when he looked at her then.
The look was as if he was looking at a fool.
