Way Back Into Love (Essie) novel Chapter 386

"Because if you die, I will take advantage of this chance to swallow the whole Xu family." He looked so serious as if he was not kidding her.

"You... you won't." She clenched her fists, her face pale.

"If you dare to die, I can make the Xu group change its surname. If you don't want this to happen, you have to live obediently." His voice was getting more and more threatening.

However, her heart was calm. She could tell that he was not serious. He was just trying to provoke her.

"Of course I don't want to die. Living is better than dying. I have a lot of things to do." With a faint smile on her face, she wanted to wait for Baron to wake up, waiting for her elder sister, Alice at the right time to come back safe and sound. She also wanted to wear the wedding dress that she designed herself to be the most beautiful bride, and then to travel around the world with Mili and Dot.

She had many thoughts and wishes, but...

"People should be prepared for the future so as to be fearless. I just did it in case," she said in a low voice. She didn't know when the virus would suddenly take effect, and when the next danger would come to her without anyone noticing. Her life could no longer be in her hands.

He held her tightly in his arms, fearing that she would disappear if he relaxed himself. "Even if the sky falls, I will bear for you." Let's live together and die together.

She nodded slightly and buried her head in his arms. Men were standing upright and strong. No matter how strong and powerful a woman was, she needed to have a strong chest to rely on when she was tired.

"Icy guy. Sometimes I just think that how nice if we are ordinary people. We can set up a small family and work together. It's really great to save money, buy a house, raise the children together." She curved her lips into a charming smile, and there was a longing on her face.

"Poor people have their own troubles. Nowadays, if a man didn't have money or house, no woman would marry him, except you, a little fool." He touched her nose with affection.

"From ancient to present, males are supposed to build houses or buy houses for themselves, no matter they are animals or humans. But now the housing price was incredibly high. An ordinary family without family background, no ancestral wage earner couldn't afford it, and women naturally had to take part of the responsibility. It's much more worth marrying the one you love than getting a house," Essie said with a smile.

"A little fool like you who can neither read others' mind nor see through others' brains, it is safe for you to marry me. Otherwise if you marry the wrong guy, you will had a miserable life."

He flicked her forehead gently. Although it was a joke, it sounded quite reasonable. A man with hidden diseases was the safest. She didn't need to worry about women behind his back, nor did she guard against women who tried to plot against him.

She suddenly realized that the best thing she had done when she was a child was to let this icy guy have a hidden disease, which was equal to using an invisible chastity lock to lock his cavernous body. He couldn't make trouble with it even if he wanted to. The only thing he could do was to obediently bow down to her and be loyal to her.

She thought and couldn't help laughing.

Zac thought she was amused by his words. He laughed too. "So you agree with my words?"

"Yes, I agree with you very much." She nodded like a chicken pecking rice, "In your heart, my greatest value is to warm the quilt, and in my heart, your greatest advantage is your hidden disease, I can let you out at ease, and I am not afraid of you cheating on me."

"So my hidden disease doesn't need to be treated at all. The more serious it is, the better, right?" he said with a teasing expression on his face.

"Yes, you don't need to cure it at all," she said teasingly as she gently bit his nose.

"You are arousing the fire in me."

Her face turned pale, "The fire was gone, wasn't it?"

"It could be aroused at any time for you." He smiled wantonly and gently pulled away her little hands protested on her chest. Under the state of her pretension to resist, he made it out with her gently again.

In the afternoon, Zac went back to the villa by the lakeside. He had to hand over the second antidote tomorrow, so he had to get in to please Leila today.

Leila no longer thought about Essie. The baby in Landis's belly was the greatest threat to her now.

She went out to greet him as soon as she saw him. She always thought that he must have stayed with Landis these days since he didn't come back at night during this period of time.

Now she was pregnant, so she couldn't do that too frequently. It was her good chance. She had to work hard and get pregnant.

"Zac, you're finally back. I feel so lonely at home alone at night. Don't go anywhere else, okay?" she said like a spoiled child.
