Chapter 154 She Bought Him New Underwear
Chapter 154 She Bought Him New Underwear
But Jared was lying on the couch, completely still, as if he’d already fallen into a deep sleep.
Natasha stared at him, speechless, for a while.
Her eyes drifted to his lips without her realizing.
She couldn’t help but recall how they’d made out from the door all the way to the couch, their kisses fiery and intense.
Her cheeks burned again, unable to stop the heat from rising.
‘If Mom hadn’t shown up unexpectedly late at night, Jared and I would’ve already gone all the way by now. Damn it, why can
t I ever hold back? He gets his way with me every single time, Natasha thought, annoyed with herself.
She shook her head to chase away those indecent images, struggling to keep herself clear-headed.
‘Forget it, she told herself.
Since Jared was already asleep, she decided not to wake him.
After all, he was always swamped with work as the boss.
‘It’s not like we haven’t done it before. Letting him crash at my place for the night isn’t a big deal, Natasha thought.
She grabbed a clean blanket from the closet and tucked him in.
Then she headed back to her room and lay down on her bed.
After a while, Natasha drifted off to sleep too…
The next morning, Natasha stretched lazily as she woke up.
She threw the curtains wide open, feeling fresh and awake.
The sun was shining brightly outside.
She then opened the window, letting the crisp morning air fill her lungs.
Suddenly, it hit her that Jared was probably still crashed out in her living room.
Natasha quickly washed up.
She grabbed some clothes from her closet, threw them on, and dashed out of her room.
The couch was empty. Jared was gone.
‘Where did that guy go?’ Natasha wondered. ‘Did he take off already?’
She let out a sigh of relief.
She actually felt more comfortable having the place to herself.
But just as she turned to head for the kitchen, she suddenly froze because she saw Jared’s tall, figure seated at the dining table.
She rushed over to him.
Then she saw a plate of creamy pasta placed in front of Jared.
It looked like the one she’d made last night.
He’d crashed on her couch last night and ended up not eating the pasta, and Natasha had totally forgotten to toss it out. She never expected that Jared would take the pasta she had made last night and eat it for breakfast as soon as he got up.
At this moment, Jared chewed slowly and unhurriedly, looking like a perfectly graceful gentleman.
Natasha had never thought a guy could make eating look so refined.
It was like watching a slow-motion scene from a movie.
The whole scene looked beautiful, almost cinematic, without a single flaw.
Catching herself just staring, totally lost in the moment, Natasha snapped back to reality, a hint of annoyance flashing in her eyes.
“Uh… should I whip up a fresh one for you?” Natasha offered, a bit awkwardly.
That was just last night’s leftovers, after all.
They’d been sitting out all night.

Chapter 154 She Bought Him New Underwear
Natasha thought that Jared, as a distinguished business executive, shouldn’t have been eating such food.
“Barely passable,” Jared commented, setting his fork down with a cool indifference.
Natasha nearly had a meltdown right then and there.
She wasn’t exactly the type to spend much time in the kitchen.
‘I finally cooked for him, and this is what I get in return?’ She couldn’t help but feel a little hurt.
‘He basically meant he never wanted to eat it again. Well, that’s fine, saves me the trouble of making it anyway. Natasha thought to herself.
Natasha thought that while her cooking was no match for a professional chef, it still tasted pretty good.
But thinking about Jared’s status, Natasha couldn’t really blame him.
‘A man like him has probably tasted every delicacy under the sun,’ she thought.
That thought made her feel a little better.
‘My pasta is probably nothing compared to what a five-star chef could whip up,’ she thought.
After psyching herself up, Natasha decided not to fuss about it for now.
“Go freshen up,” Natasha said, and went to make breakfast.
Once she finished in the kitchen and spun around, Natasha saw Jared leaning casually against the doorway, his gaze fixed intently on her.
She had no clue how long he’d been standing there.
Surprised, Natasha asked, “Aren’t you going to work?”
“I don’t have any clean underwear,” Jared said.
Natasha was momentarily at a loss for words.
She knew that for a man as fastidious as Jared, it was simply impossible for him to wear the same pair of underwear for two days straight.
Natasha’s mouth twitched.
She kindly suggested, “Why don’t you have your men bring some over, or… just go without?”
She barely whispered the last few words, her voice almost lost, clearly guilty for even suggesting it.
Jared fixed her with a deep, probing look. “Or what?”
Natasha braced herself and managed a weak smile. “Or you could just wear your pants. No need for underwear, really…”
As she said it, Natasha suddenly noticed something happening in his pants.
Her eyes nearly popped out in surprise.
‘Is he seriously getting turned on right now?’ Natasha thought, completely stunned.
“Still think I don’t need underwear?” Jared asked, his gaze intense as he looked at her.
Natasha shook her head violently at once.
She never thought he could get turned on at the drop of a hat.
“Or… I could let you borrow one of mine?” Natasha suggested out of nowhere.
Jared furrowed his brows. “You want me to wear women’s underwear?”
Natasha quickly denied it. “No, that’s not it…”
She’d taken one of his boxers before.
She didn’t bother washing it, so she just bought a new pair to give back to him.
She just never had the chance to hand them over.
Since Jared had spent the night at her place, it was the perfect opportunity to give him the new pair of underwear she’d bought for him.
Jared’s expression grew even darker. “You want me to wear your husband’s underwear?”
‘I would never wear underwear that another man has worn. Besides, Natasha saying that is as good as admitting her
husband has been here, and maybe even slept with her.’ Jared felt really bitter and jealous at the thought.
The more he thought about it, the more frustrated he felt.

“No, of course not!” Natasha hurried to explain. “I bought a brand new pair myself.”
Jared narrowed his eyes, his voice tinged with jealousy. “You bought new underwear for your husband?”
“No, I bought them for you!” Natasha blurted out.
Jared was caught off guard.
He was almost in disbelief.
His frustration instantly vanished, replaced by delight.
