Ian's question jolted Rue as she stared at him and spaced out into her memory.
Ian and she have been together since college. They even had sex for the first time then.
For a long time after that, even though they were no longer physically together, their relationship was kept in this ambiguous space.
Since marrying Edward, Rue had spent all her waking hours trying to placate Edward just so she could spend one night with him.
However, five years had passed and it had exhausted her of ideas, but he was still indifferent to her.
Due to that, she had never made love with other men in those five years.
Experiencing the constant responses that her body made, Rue pressed her lips together. She did not expect her body to be that parched for attention...
She hooked her fingers around Ian's chin with a pitiful look. "I thought once I married someone else, you would no longer want me, so I dared not look for you."
Ian hugged Rue tighter without stopping his lower body from moving. He then plunged into her unwaveringly before he growled in satisfaction.
"How would I! Rue, you don't know how important you are to me! I love you, your heart, not just your body. I don't care about anything else as long as you have me in your heart."
Rue's head tilted up slightly in pleasure. "Of course, Ian, I do have you in my heart!"
Tightly, she grabbed onto Ian's strong torso. "Ian, deeper! Faster..."
With a smile, Ian quickened his movement.
Their tangled bodies were almost inseparable.
In the Bluemel mansion, Josh looked at Edward on the sofa and voiced his question.
"Father, you and mother went to the ball together, but why are we the only ones who came back?"
With that, Edward's eyes closed gradually and coldly. "If she wants to come back, she will come back."
Seeing that Edward was not concerned with Rue's whereabouts, Josh stopped insisting on an answer.
Soon, the old butler brought the landline telephone to Edward. "Master Edward, it's from the Bennets."
Edward put his book down and picked up the handset. "Are you looking for something?"
Hearing Edward's voice, the other end of the phone responded quickly, "Yes, yes, Eddie. I would like to know if Rue is home?"
Edward's face darkened. "What did you call me?"
After a moment of silence, the other end of the phone replied with nervous laughter. "Mr. Bluemel, I would like to know if Rue has returned home."
Edward answered coldly, "No."
"So about the cooperation..."
Edward smirked. "About the cooperation, I have clearly laid out my terms for you. Unless you can find the person who is sabotaging you, I will not intervene."
