What did Shelton's words mean? Of course, I knew it better than anyone else. After such a long time, we were finally engaged.
At this time, it was set in stone that we would get married.
I should have been resigned to the reality. But, however hard I tried, Patrick's words were deeply engraved in my mind.
Patrick said that he surely would get me back before Shelton and I could get married.
He said so a few hours ago.
Now that as I recalled, the scenes in the dressing room showed up in my mind from time to time. I remember all the things Patrick did to me while pressing me on the sofa.
I remembered everything clearly.
Even the happiness we had experienced after having the orgasm together was vivid in my memory.
Thinking of this, I was absent- minded for a moment. Then Shelton added, "Do you have to think about it for such a long time?"
"Mum, it's so noisy."
As I was about to say something, Glenn in my arms spoke.
Then he rolled over and unexpectedly covered his ears with his little hands.
For a moment, I wondered if Glenn had indeed fallen asleep or if he was pretending. After he spoke at this moment, it happened that I didn't have to say anything further.
Holding on to my hand, Shelton passed the warmth in his palm to me with much more strength as if it were a symbol of his determination.
I lowered my head and looked at Glenn's sleeping face.
I didn't know what Shelton had injected into Glenn's body in the video that day.
It was because of this point that I became a coward. I dared not refuse Shelton, fearing that something bad would happen to Glenn.
The car drove all the way to the gate of Shelton's house.
I carried Glenn upstairs and placed him on the bed.
As I undressed him, he woke up. So I coaxed him for a while before he fell asleep.
It wasn't until Glenn fell asleep that I went back to my room and took off my gown.
Fortunately, Amy took the torn dress with him when he left. Otherwise, I indeed didn't know how to explain it to Shelton.
I took off my clothes, planning to take a shower. Standing in front of the big mirror in the bathroom, I found that there were a few hickeys on my chest. Some of them were shallow. And some of them were conspicuous...
All of a sudden, I got nervous in my heart!
How come I didn't remember Patrick had left traces on my body?
Could it be that I was so passionate at that time that I had completely ignored everything around me?
When I panicked, a black shadow appeared on the frosted glass door of the bathroom. Then, I heard Shelton's voice from outside, "Honey, let's take a bath together."
"Ah..." I looked at the hickeys on my body and knew that I surely couldn't let Shelton come in!
Otherwise, Shelton would definitely...
I dared not think further...
I took two steps back and said, "No, no. Let...Let me take a shower by myself."
"Haha." Shelton, who was standing at the door, chuckled, "Soon, we will be naked in front of each other. Why are you still shy about this?"
"I... I need to make some preparations."
I wiped away the hickeys on my body with all my might.
However, the more I wiped, the redder the hickeys became.
Without any cosmetics in the bathroom, I couldn't cover the hickeys up with anything. For a moment, I was at a loss, wondering what to do.
What I was more afraid of was that Shelton would force his way in.
In that case, I would be dumbfounded.
When I was quite worried, Shelton sighed gently at the door, "Well, I'll wait for you to come out."
I took the longest bath in my life in the bathroom.
From beginning to end, I stayed in the bathroom for about two hours.
By the time I finished showering, the skin on my entire body had turned red from the blistering.
I put on my bathrobe and covered up the hickeys on my body. Then I gently approached the door, only to fail to hear any sound outside.
"Could it be that Shelton has fallen asleep?
I pushed the door slightly open and went out from the dressing room in front of the bathroom door, glancing at the bedroom.
