Elijah and Tim looked at each other quietly. Did the words just come from a three-year-old child? They were really shocked.
“Elijah, old master, I am going upstairs to call my mum. Enjoy your meal, I’m not hungry!” Hugo said calmly, “I am going up first.”
“Alright, come down to eat when you are hungry!” Tim really liked that smart child.
“Grandpa, I’m going to look for Babe!” Elijah couldn’t bear it anymore. He wanted to leave to meet her. He placed his daughter there. He was distressed and satisfied to see her mouth full of oil.
“Go ahead!” Iris said again. “Daddy, go. Mummy must be looking at your picture and cry!”
“Go! I don’t know if she is still angry with me because I scolded her so badly last time!” Tim felt so regretful when he recalled it. But he just needed to do it at that time, he had no other ideas!
“Sweetie, you stay with grandpa and daddy will come back tomorrow, is it okay?” Although Elijah didn’t want to be separated from his daughter, he must bring his wife back first.
“Okay!” The little girl replied obediently. She could just go anywhere with food!
Elijah kissed his daughter’s forehead reluctantly, “Daddy is going now! Grandpa, I’m going!”
At Elijah’s apartment.
The small apartment where he lived with Esther four years ago.
Esther came back and she went there.
Philip had let people clean up there and the furnishings inside were not changed. She looked at everything which she was familiar with and cried uncontrollably.
It was the sadness of waiting for four years or maybe it was the joy of reunion after parting. All kinds of complex emotions intertwined, and she just couldn’t control herself.
She saw him today!
Finally, she saw him!
However, she ran away!
He did not catch up. She left her daughter to him. She was their daughter who was the fruit of their love. She didn’t expect to discover her pregnancy after separating from him for a month. She cried with joy. No one knew how worried she was to get a child like her previous child. She waited nervously for the check-up until she found that the child was healthy and then finally her heart was relieved.
On the day of giving birth, she was accompanied by her brother and Hudson. After that, she gave birth to the naughty little cute girl.
She curled up herself on the sofa, letting her tears flow violently.
No one knew how long it had passed until she heard the sound of the key turning and looked up in shock. The door was opened. The tall and familiar figure appeared in front of her.
She didn’t even have time to wipe off the tears on her face. She looked very indecent as her face was of tears. Then, she wiped it off immediately with her sleeve.
She raised her head and looked at him. The door was closed. He leaned against the door and just looked at her like that.
They looked at each other. Esther blushed inexplicably. Maybe it was because she hadn’t seen him for a long time. She felt like they had been apart from each other for a century and it was such a long time for her to wait which had made her anxious. After suffering for such a long time, she finally met him and there was a familiar flame in his eyes.
It had been too long and she seemed to be a little not familiar with him in that way. His gentle watery gaze made her heart beat wildly. It was actually because she missed him too much.
Elijah looked at her gently and then she stood up without saying a word, getting ready to enter the bathroom to wash her tear-stained face.
But he rushed to her in a big stride. He stretched out his arms and hugged Esther tightly who was about to flee. He hugged her so tightly as if he wished to put her body into his body and so they could never be separated again. It had been four years. There were so many days and months in the period. He had waited long enough.
“Let go of me!” It seemed like her body was about to be severed by him. Esther said in a cold voice, such a close embrace made her heart beat wildly.
“Babe, I’m sorry!” He knew that it was a mistake to choose the way. However, he was really afraid that he would not bear it and also he worried that he couldn’t come back. What if she kept waiting for him?
His word ‘sorry’ broke Esther pretended strength and finally the tears that she swallowed just gushed out.
“Uuuuu…” Esther was sobbing again. She stayed in his arms and the familiar breath rushed into her nose. His embrace was as warm as usual, as broad as before. Her little fist just fell on his shoulders. “Aren’t you dead? Didn’t you blow up? Didn’t you scare me that you are dead in the explosion? What are you doing? Why are you coming back? Why are you coming back? Uuuuu…”
“I’m sorry!” The low noise was choked. Elijah closed his eyes, preventing anyone from seeing him humble and fragile at the moment but he finally came back. No one knew he had been in so much danger and no one knew how dangerous a situation he had gone through in the past four years. He thought it would need to take three years for him to legalize LN Group. But it took more than four years for him to do so. Everything was far more complicated than he thought. If it weren’t for Josh Gunn, the person whose face had been deliberately changed into Elijah’s face, if he hadn’t helped Elijah, he must have gone to heaven early now!
Luckily! Luckily, he was still alive and they could still be together!
Listening to his sobbing voice, her heart throbbed but her little hand didn’t stop. She was still beating him. Even though she didn’t have much strength, she still vented. “It is useless to say sorry, sorry for the ass, do you think sorry is so enough? Why should I wait for you, why? Why? I am telling you now, Iris belongs to me, she was born by me and another man. I cuckold you for thousand times! You let me go, don’t hug me! I hate you!”
Elijah was not angry but distressed when listening to her tone. He was distressed. He curled his thin lips silently and let go of her hand suddenly. Esther who was free then stepped backed away from him, she just ignored the feeling of emptiness at that moment and stared coldly at Elijah.
He dared to let go of her, Hump, he didn’t have the chance to hug her anymore!
“You hate me, is it?” Elijah smiled playfully. He glanced at Esther in silence and then took another step forward.
Esther looked at him in a daze who was stepping towards her. Her heart was pounding. Then, she saw him laying down and whispering in her ear, “You actually can’t bear to leave my arms but pretend to hate me, you are not saying what you think. How should I punish you?”
“You…” Esther stared at his peachy eyes and couldn’t say a word in confusion. Why was he more handsome after four years? More charming? Was it because she couldn’t control herself, being attracted to a handsome guy?
Elijah lifted her chin gently. Then, he approached her and his thin lips made bewitching words again, “Say, do you really hate me?”
Ah! Esther was awake at once. However, she was hugged into Elijah’s arms violently in the next second. He couldn’t wait anymore and pressed Esther tightly against the wall next to the bedroom door, it was followed by a deep kiss. It seemed like a violent craziness.
Esther didn’t expect him to be so direct. If she thought rationally, she knew that she couldn’t do such a thing now, but the little beast in her body was uncontrollable and it even brought a hint of adventurous excitement.
Her hem was lifted and his rough palm stroked the delicate skin. Elijah sighed slightly, he couldn’t resist the attraction of the touch. It had been more than four years. No one would know how much he missed her!
“Do you miss me, Babe?” He breathed quickly and murmured as he buried his head on her neck.
She did, there wasn’t a moment that she didn’t miss him. She seemed to be poisoned, she enjoyed being in his embrace. That kind of uncontrollable longing burst out desperately, she had been waiting until sad until distressed, and despaired. She gave herself hope! She had been thinking of him all the time!
Esther didn’t answer but she put her hands around his neck and responded wholeheartedly.
Elijah didn’t expect that she would take the initiative. He couldn’t control himself and groaned happily. The entanglement between their lips and teeth warmed up and a gleam of fluid slipped.
At that moment, the whole room was filled with an ambiguous smell. Both of them gave up their sanity and just wanted to possess themselves to each other. Maybe, they just missed each other too much!
Elijah carried her into the bedroom and put her on the big bed. The two of them couldn’t wait to lift each other’s shackles.
Elijah was wearing a suit with a dark shirt inside. She was unbuttoning his suit’s buttons and sweating profusely. She was a little awkward and trembling. It had been four years and she wanted Elijah but the buttons were tricking her.
She pulled the buttons off hurriedly and the buttons were just be popped off from his suit in a rush. She did not hesitate to pull the hem of his shirt on his waist. Then, her little hand got into his shirt immediately and touched the sensitive spot on his chest quickly.
Elijah lowered his eyes to look at her. His breathing became heavier and heavier. Thinking that his shirt had been messed up by her little hands, he smiled softly. He couldn’t wait anymore, he just tore the last layer of obstruction on her body and entered fiercely.
“Ah… you slow down… a bit…” Esther arched her body and clutched the bedsheet tightly. She had not made love for a long time and it made her feel pain and couldn’t bear his fierce rhythm.
“I just can’t stop…” Elijah sighed contentedly, holding her slender waist and sinking in the warm and humid place.
There were lots of pleasure coming and bombing Esther until she was softened. Her mind was even blank and her ecstasy burst out from her throat.
Elijah lowered his head and kissed her immediately, swallowing her moans that would bring him in the fire of desire.
After a long while, there were only their heavy breathing and passionate warmth in the room.
Esther hung her legs weakly on Elijah’s waist. Then, she raised her red swollen eyelids and looked at him with affection. She stretched out her little hand to depict his face. She was feeling sad as she thought that she would never see him again.
He was also looking at her affectionately.
While he was feeling her little hand touching his handsome face, Elijah felt a sharp pain in his heart and a tremor instinctively in his body. But his eyes that were staring at Esther were still so gentle and pampered.
“Get up!” She reminded him in a low voice. He was so heavy. How could he not leave her? That was so ambiguous! He did not leave her body at all.
“No! I want more!” He closed his eyes suddenly with pleading in the low hoarse noise. Then, he pressed down and buried his face heavily on her shoulders. He clenched his hands around her waist heavily as if the close and unintentional hug could make him clearly understand that she was really by his side. It was not a dream, not the illusion of his midnight dream, and not a disappointment. He was possessing her now.
Esther was unaccustomed to such a sudden hug and she just moved her body. Then, she raised her gaze inadvertently and saw the tears that were running across Elijah’s closed eyes.
He was the chief of the LN Group! He was the heir of the master from thousands of choices! He was the leader of the gangsters. Such a cold and sharp man actually cried?
Esther stopped in a daze, looking at Elijah who was crying of a sudden. Her heart throbbed and she stretched her hand over the corner of his eye subconsciously. How could such a strong man cry? How could he cry in front of her? Did he know that her heart hurt more? What about the methods she had thought to be used to abuse him?
