Julian came out of the bathroom and saw Emelia in a daze, blushing.
Julian felt some kind of a stir. In his impression, Emelia looked like this mostly when they were hooking up.
His Adam's apple rolled a few times and he went over to her, asking in a whisper, "What's happened? Why are you blushing?"
Upon seeing Julian, Emelia immediately recalled Frances's words. Her face turned even hotter.
She turned around, to avoid looking at Julian. "Nothing really. I've just called Francesand told her that we're not going there tomorrow."
"I'll go take a shower now." After saying this, Emelia dodged into the bathroom.
Julian looked at Emelia's somewhat flustered back, lost in thought. So, he picked up his phone and called Frances, wanting to know what they had talked about just now.
Julian felt thirsty when he figured out the contents of their conversation.
It was a long time ago when he and Emelia had sex.
Honestly speaking, Julian had been living like a monk over the past two years. He had no sex life the first year after the divorce. After Emelia came back, they hooked up a few times, which was close to none.
After hanging up Frances's phone, Julian casually turned off the bedroom light, then walked to the bathroom, lazily leaned against the wall next to the bathroom, and waited.
She had always been shy, and turning off the lights would make her much more relaxed.
Emelia spent a long time in the bathroom. She took a shower, dried her hair, and then did her skincare. Julian waited patiently outside.
Julian felt like a hungry wolf waiting for his delicious prey. Of course, he had to wait until she was clean and sweet-smelling. It would be more delicious, no?
Julian picked up Emelia as soon as she stepped out of the bathroom without hiding his aggression.
Emelia exclaimed in his arms, "What are you doing?"
"According to Frances, we should try out if the treatment works." As he spoke, he threw her into the big bed.
Emelia didn't expect that Julian would call Frances. She instantly felt awkward. Soon she found an excuse, "But we need to catch the plane tomorrow."
"Don't worry. If you are too weak to walk tomorrow, I can carry you. We won't miss the plane," said Julian.
Emelia had a mixed feeling of anger and shyness upon hearing Julian's blunt reply. But Julian climbed onto her, giving her no chance to resist.
The next day, as expected, Emelia couldn't walk. Thinking of what Julian had done to her last night, Emelia intended to just stay in bed.
She begged him to be gentle last night, yet he didn't give a damn about it. So why would she care about his feelings at the moment?
And he even said last night that if they were going to test the effect of the treatment, they had to go all out.
He was full of excuses anyway. She was worn out by him.
When Julian came out from the dressing room, Emelia was still in bed.
Julian looked fresh, which made Emelia angrier. She said, "I'm going to Grafstin with you. I'm too weak to do so. Go there by yourself."
"No way." Julian bent down to her, smirking, "A promise is a promise, you can't take it back."
"And what did you promise me last night?" Emelia accused in anger. "You said it'll be a quick one, and what happened?"
Julian shrugged and said in an innocent tone, "It was a quick one."
Emelia was speechless, thinking, "Are you showing off your stamina, jerk?"
