We Want Mommy Not You Daddy (Cedar) novel Chapter 161

Chapter 161

Ridley’s POV

Memories of last night made my body go rigid. No one would ever

know how much self–control it had cost me to pull away from her

warm bod, and how many cold showers I’d taken after leaving her.

I’d been ready to have her. Until I realized she was a virgin.

I couldn’t bring myself to take her virginity like that.

“You… you really didn’t touch me?” Cedar asked, clearly embarrassed

but still determined to know.

I swallowed hard and forced out a cruel laugh. “With that skinny body

of yours? I’m not that desperate.”

Seeing my look of distaste, Cedar suddenly broke into a smile.

Despite being insulted and exposed, she seemed… relieved. Thrilled,

even.

My mood darkened further. I hadn’t touched her, and she was this

happy about it?

“Don’t you know your own body well enough to tell if you’ve been

with someone?” I couldn’t resist the cutting remark.

Cedar’s POV

My face felt hot enough to fry an egg. How would I know what sex felt

like afterward? I had no experience to draw from.

Still… if Ridley hadn’t touched me, where did all those marks on my

body come from? I wanted to ask but couldn’t summon the nerve.

“I’m sorry, Mr. Sterling. I misunderstood,” I said, unable to keep the

relief from my voice.

The happier I sounded, the darker his expression grew.

“I should have left you to fend for yourself last night,” he muttered

coldly.

“Ahem!” I quickly adopted my most sincere expression. “Mr. Sterling, you saved me last night, and I’m eternally grateful. A simple thank you‘ seems inadequate. If there’s ever anything I can do for you, anything at all, I’m at your service.”

“Then come with me now,” Ridley said, striding toward the exit.

I glanced at the sunset’s fading glow–it was getting dark. “Where are

we going?” I called after him.

“To my home.”

dley opened the car door, fixing me with that cool stare. “You can

elax. I have no interest in you whatsoever.”

I shuffled over awkwardly. Fair enough–I’d previously suspected he

might be interested in me, but after last night… Well, if he could

resist me when I was naked and in that state, he clearly wasn’t

attracted to me.

Unless…

I found myself wondering if Ridley might have some kind of…

performance issues?

“Ahem!” I choked on my own saliva as images of Ridley’s physique

flashed through my mind. My gaze inadvertently dropped to the area

below his belt buckle.

Ridley looked like he might cough blood. If his expression was

anything to go by, he knew exactly what I was thinking.

“Mr. Sterling!” I quickly changed the subject. “Will all the children be

at home?”

“Would you prefer them to be?” he countered coolly.

Instinct told me this question was a trap.

“It doesn’t really matter to me either way…” I replied with an

awkward laugh, not even convincing myself.

I still hadn’t figured out how, in just two months, I’d become so

attached to Ridley Sterling’s three children. If I weren’t the person

involved, I might question my own motives.
