Chapter 0150
Nicholas scooped me up from the ground and held me in his arms. * With skills that bad, you still want to chase me away?”
I was speechless. Wasn’t he the one who couldn’t co I himself and growled for me to go faster? I bit my lip, wanting to retort but too embarrassed to say anything.
“You… seemed to be enjoying yourself just fine!”
I huffed and turned my face away, but the next second, he bent down and nibbled on my earlobe. “Feeling shy now? You were pretty bold just a moment ago.”
I feigned calmness and pushed him away. “You didn’t like it? Then
there won’t be a next time.”
I turned and started walking back to the room, but the further I went, the more frustrated I became. The once–soft sand now felt like it
was pricking my feet.
Humans were really strange creatures. When driven by hormones, it was so easy to get carried away, and getting carried away would lead them to do things they’d regret–like right now.
Nicholas caught up to me in two strides, draping his arm over my shoulder and softly explaining, “I didn’t mean you weren’t good. I liked it a lot.”
I ignored him, keeping my head down as I continued walking. Suddenly, he grabbed my arm, forcing me to stop, but I still didn’t
look up.
When he cupped my cheeks, my eyes had already misted over, and I caught a glimpse of panic in his eyes. “Ari?”
MACHE
I pretended to be angry. “You must feel pretty smug seeing me like this, huh? When I did something so wild and bold for you, were you secretly laughing at me?”
My words were half true and half false. The content was false, but the emotion was real. We had been married for four years, and only now did I realize that I too could be unreasonable.
When I felt wronged, I could also act spoiled and complain to my partner instead of locking myself in a room to shed secret tears.
