Though Julian and Emelia had a quarrel earlier, they were reconciled after dinner.
When it was time for bed, Julian insisted on staying here for a night, taking the workshop as an excuse. Since they were not going to see each other for half a month, they had to cherish every minute now.
Switching off the light, Julian mounted on her while Emelia pushed him gently and reminded him, "Don't leave any marks on my neck, I have to attend the launch event of 'Princess Leilania' tomorrow."
"Princess Leilania" had been highly expected since the shooting started, and the clips of the show released earlier further arouse audiences' anticipations. Therefore, the producer decided to hold a launch conference as an advertising campaign. As the screenwriter, Emelia was invited to the conference.
Though it was cold, there would be central heating in the conference room, so attendees would undoubtedly dress lightly and fashionably. Actresses like Nina would wear strapless gowns or backless dresses while as the staff working behind the screen, Emelia didn't need to wear as fashionable as the actresses so a simple dress would suffice.
But if Julian left marks on her neck, she would have to wear turtle neck tops which would seem clumsy and even ridiculous around a bunch of fashionably-dressed actresses.
Waking up in the morning, Emelia found her neck intact, but her legs were aching from tiredness and were nearly trembling when she walked.
While Julian had gotten up earlier and was now coming out of the dressing room wearing a bathrobe after a refreshing shower. When he spotted Emelia, he asked, "Which suit should I wear, Emelia?"
As the investor of "Princess Leilania", Julian would also attend the launch conference. But when he woke up this morning to choose the outfit, for the first time he didn't what to wear even after a long search. It wasn't because he didn't how to match clothes. He just wanted Emelia to choose the suit for him and helped him with his necktie and collar, and if possible, a necktie matching her dress would be perfect.
Julian was looking at her with expectance, but Emelia just gave him a cool glance and walked away ignoring him. She didn't have the least intention of helping him since last night he didn't stop having her even when she felt exhausted.
Julian reached out and took her into his arms easily, saying innocently, "I didn't leave any marks on your neck last night, did I?"
Emelia glared at him and said, "How dare you mention it." He did leave her neck intact but worn her out completely. Emelia was about to complain more when she realized he had been wearing a bathrobe and grabbing her into his arms made it loose so she was now being pressed against his naked body literally.
Vexed and shy, Emelia broke away from his hug and went downstairs to prepare breakfast.
Watching her going away, Julian wasn't dejected at all and followed her downstairs joyfully. For now, the happiest thing was having Emelia in his arms when he woke up every morning. It didn't matter whether she would sometimes give him the cold shoulders only if she was by his side and besides, he would grab all her attention when he was on her bed.
Having cooked the meal, Emelia was going to make some coffee when Julian stopped her saying, "Just give me some milk, juice, or porridge. No coffee from today on."
Emelia asked confusedly, "Why? What for?"
