President’s Sweet Wife novel Chapter 562

“Gotta tell my wife this good news when I get home. We shall celebrate this!” Mr. Parsons thought to himself.

Max didn’t stay at the party for long. He soon left with Laura.

As he had had a few drinks, he didn’t drive but sat in the back seat with Laura. The car window was half-open. As the night breeze came in, the scent of wine on Max and Laura’s fragrance blended and then dispersed with the wind.

“Thank you for showing me so much respect in front of everyone.”

Laura meant it. Considering their current relationship, she knew that Max had really treated her with courtesy.

Max cast a sidelong glance at her. His face blushed slightly under the effect of alcohol. But his dark eyes were glinting bewitchingly, as though he could see through one’s soul.

“That’s it? But I don’t accept the mere words of thanks.”

Laura was taken aback. She caught sight of the slight mockery in Max’s eyes. An idea popped up in her mind.

Smiling, she swirled her pretty pupils shrewdly and snuggled up to Max. The tip of her smooth fingers fiddled with the buttons of Max’s shirt as she bit her red lips.

“Mr. Nixon, how would you like me to thank you? That pretty Miss Thomson kept eyeing me furtively at the party. Her bitter stare even made my hair stand on end.

“I was thinking if we should call her and explain our relationship to her. Then, umm…”

Before she could finish, a passionate kiss struck her lips.

Laura felt her body was softened by the kiss. She wanted to resist, but her reaction was more like a silent invitation.

A muffled snicker sounded from the front. Suddenly, Laura snapped back to reality.

“Max Nixon!”

She pushed Max in anger. It was not until this moment that she found she was lying on the back seat, with Max lying upon her.

She saw from the rearview mirror that the driver was trying to suppress his laughs. Annoyed and abashed, she yelled, “You jerk!”

Max squinted at the front. The driver instantly put on a serious look and pressed a button on the dashboard. A baffle dropped, separating the back seat from the front seat.

“Didn’t you say you wanted to thank me? This is how I like to be thanked.”

Max looked down at Laura, who was lying on the seat. His breathing quickened. His voice was deep and husky, which sounded particularly sexy in this confined space.

Laura’s cheeks burnt with a blush. Her heart almost jumped out of her throat. She looked away and shoved with all her might. “Get up! You’re too heavy!”

Max smiled and let go of her. He then sat up, straightened his clothes with grace, and said in an indolent voice, “Don’t ever thank me with words. If you really wanna thank me, kiss me instead.”

Laura clenched her teeth and snapped, “Screw you!”

She then kicked the car door and shouted, “Pull over!”

The driver parked the car on the roadside. Miffed, Laura got out of the car and slammed the door shut.

Max lowered the window and reminded her kindly, “This place is still miles away from your house.”

“I’ll never ride your car anymore! I’d rather take a cab!”

After that, Laura stalked off in her high heels.

Max rested an arm on the car door and watched Laura furiously walk into the evening darkness. A tiny smile quietly climbed onto his lips.

At this moment, his phone suddenly rang. He picked up.

“Max, when will you bring your girlfriend home? Didn’t you say you’d soon let us see my future daughter-in-law? Why still haven’t we seen her?”

“You’ll see her very soon.”

“Really?”
