My Husband Is A Gary Stu novel Chapter 1175

Chapter 1176

Robert's lips quivered as he had more to say.

Sally raised her head and smiled faintly at him. “You don't have to worry. The deal is not the only reason I married him.’’

“Okay. Drive safely.’’ He knew how opinionated Sally was and that she had everything under control.

It was already 11 p.m. by the time Sally reached Swallow Garden.

The help had long since fallen asleep. Sally unlocked the door and went upstairs to the bedroom, where Cooper was sitting in front of the floor-to-ceiling windows in long sleeve pajamas.

There was a laptop on the coffee table before him. It seemed like he still had work to do.

“I thought you wouldn't be coming back tonight.” Cooper voiced his surprise as the sound of the door opening caught his attention.

“Where would I be staying if I don't return?” Sally replied while heading to the bathroom for a shower.

Cooper had finished up his work when she stepped out of the bathroom.

He removed his glasses and placed them on the nightstand before rubbing his temples. “I'll be leaving for Xedells tomorrow for a business trip. I'll be gone for about five days.”

Sally knew how busy he was, but she hadn't expected him to leave for Xedells early the next day when they'd just returned from Baykeep in the afternoon.

"Should I send you there?”

“It's all right. I'll be bringing my secretary with me.”

Sally had only donned a navy blue silk chemise as the heater was on. It clung to her skin and contrasted starkly with her fair skin under the bedroom's lighting.

Her distant expression, along with her glacial eyes, deterred others from coming close, only permitting others to admire her beauty from afar.

Cooper was enticed by Sally's allure and hooked his arms around her waist, pulling her against him as his fingers circled her hips through her chemise.

He raised his head at the same time Sally lowered hers and caught her lips with his.
