Adelaide's spirits had been particularly bad these days. She thought of Koby's tragic death almost every night. But misfortune might be a blessing in disguise. Antonio had also been cared about her lately. Every night, he had to coax her to fall asleep before taking a shower. Besides, he would hug her to sleep all night.
The relationship between the two quickly heated up. Antonio worried that she would get sick if she was always alone at home, so he got up early and contacted Hanna who was still asleep.
Hanna was woken up so early. She would inevitably be unhappy. Considering that Adelaide had been indeed depressed these days, she proposed to use children to distract Adelaide's attention.
Antonio agreed. So when Adelaide woke up, she saw Antonio lying beside her. His dark eyes looked at her with a touch of affection. Adelaide immediately completely woke up and blushed. She said in low voice, like whispers between lovers, "Are you not going to work today?"
Oscar was really capable. Not only he could deal with things well that Koby could deal with, but also he could take care of the things well that Koby couldn't deal with.
It could be said that in the near future, after Oscar was familiar with all the business, Antonio could have a lot of time to hang out, which was Antonio's most satisfying point.
He smiled, but soon he returned to his usual indifferent expression.
Adelaide was taken aback. Did he smile just now?
Antonio was usually cold. When she first saw him, she thought there was something wrong with his face so he couldn’t smile. Later, she saw when he faced his brother and Grandma, he occasionally smiled. Then she knew that he just didn't like to smile. After marrying him, he rarely smiled at her.
So she almost forgot that his smile was so bright. Adelaide also smiled, "Antonio, when you smile, you look so good."
She thought so, so she said so!
Antonio tapped her forehead lightly, but his tone couldn't hide his happiness, "You’re really ugly when you sleep. Not only you like to teeth grind, but also you like turning over."
After hearing this, Adelaide blushed with embarrassment. She was pouting and muttering, which was like a cute kitten. He was deeply attracted by her cute expressions now.
He was turned on, feeling some part of his body was awakened. Antonio’s face suddenly sank and didn't think about those stuff. Adelaide was still confused. Then she accidentally caught a glimpse something. She laughed. Her beautiful eyes curved down, which was just like the crescent in the sky.
"Miss Hanna will come later. You have to freshen up quickly."
When Antonio came out of the bathroom, his expressions had already turned into usual look. Adelaide was changing her clothes on the bed. Hearing him speak, she looked back and was stunned. Her mouth opened into a small "O" shape. Once again, Antonio was obsessed by her astonished look. He almost couldn't control himself.
He calmed himself down, and quickly took his eyes off her.
Adelaide pondered for a long time, then suddenly raised her head and asked, "Miss Hanna? She is my best friend. You can call her Hanna!"
Hanna?
Just thinking about it, Antonio couldn't help but feel creepy. He quickly changed to the other topic to divert Adelaide's attention.
Not long after, Hanna drove her car to Antonio’s home. She liked the red color, which was energetic, just like her. Adelaide watched her slowly getting off the car.
"Did you buy a new car again?"
Hanna nodded and snickered, "Yes, my Dad said that a car is a symbol of status!"
Her father was generous and loved her, so her father would satisfy her whatever she wanted.
