It was the first time that Marley had heard her talk so much like a kid. He couldn’t help laughing. He didn’t make a sound, nor did he hide it, but Sylvie saw his wry smile and looked at him in astonishment.
“Why do you laugh?” She blurted out in bewilderment.
Their gaze met, and there was something special between them.
“Marley?” She was a little nervous because of his stares.
When she wanted to say something, he threw his arms around her.
His heart was beating so fast as if he was on a roller coaster. She never had such feelings before. On this midsummer night, only he and she were lying on the grass and looking at the stars together!
Sylvie felt herself swaying in the burning fire. She felt novel and crazy when her heart was so close to his. It was incredible and wonderful!
She was suffocating!
Such a cold and tough man was very scornful at the beginning, but now they were on intimate terms. She liked it. They were like a couple in love.
When he was about to let go of her, she stretched out her arms and hugged him tightly around the neck. She felt so happy as if she was stepping on the cloud. Though she may fall, she didn’t want to let go of him.
Marley suddenly froze, looked up at her eyes.
There were mixed feelings in his eyes.
“Sylvie.” He calmed down and whispered to her.
“What?” She was too shy to look up.
“You’re so passionate today!” He chuckled and teased her. “You like it, don’t you? You enjoy being kissed by me, right?”
She lost herself in his smile and nodded shyly. “Yes, do you like my kiss?”
“Yes!” He made no secret of it. Marley threw his powerful arms around her.
“Marley, are you a sex maniac?” She chuckled and called his name. “No more kiss!”
And he took her in his arms, groaned and looked at her eyes. “What do you think? I am a sex maniac, so are you!”
“I’m not!” Sylvie looked up and denied coyly.
“No? Who put her arms around my neck and kissed me?” He croaked.
“I have no idea!” She shook her head, as if she was drunk!
Under the dark and starry sky, she could see the passion in his eyes by the faint light. People always became bold in the darkness and oblivious to trouble, so did she. She was completely attracted by the scenery. Everything was so beautiful!
Suddenly, a meteor shot across the night sky. Sylvie’s eyes glistened. She could not help exclaiming, “Meteor!”
Marley, however, lowered his head and kissed her on the lips, “Tonight, you will see a lot of shooting stars! Do you like the stars?”
Sylvie nodded and was a little embarrassed. “Don’t press me! I want to see the stars!”
“You look at the stars. I look at you!” He spoke.
“You…” she was really a little stunned. When did he become so evil and shameless!
Their eyes met. He couldn’t help but croak, “Sylvie!”
“What?”
Undoubtedly, he kissed her hard on her lips.
“Marley!” She shouted and lacked oxygen.
He didn’t move.
“Marley, stop it!” Sylvie was kissed by him, could not make a voice and spent some time squeezing out the words.
The man clasped around her to prevent her from escaping.
The shooting stars shot across the night sky and the starlight shed on them. Marley’s eyes turned red when he looked at Sylvie. He nibbled her lips and whispered, “Sylvie, you are mine!”
“Don’t be afraid, Sylvie!” He said in a hoarse voice, taking her face.
It was a very special experience!
The sky was their cover, and the earth was their bed!
They got back to nature. Everything seemed to be the most primitive but wonderful!
A long time had passed.
He held her in the starlight.
Marley smiled softly, trying to wake her up.
Sylvie opened her eyes and mumbled, “Marley, I am very tired and sleepy!”
“It’s time for us to go back to our bedroom! We have to sleep in my parents’ house tonight! Mrs. Sabrina called us just now! You don’t want them to know what we’ve done, do you?” Marley whispered in a gentle tone.
“It’s your fault!” she murmured and felt really tired!
Since she was too tired to move, he dressed her in her clothes, dressed himself and picked her up.
Sylvie recovered a bit, and said softly, “Put me down. I’ll go by myself!”
But he carried her and went to the door, “If you’re not afraid, I can carry you upstairs!”
“No!” Sylvie shook her head shyly and blushed “I can go myself!”
He put her down, took her by the hand, and went into the hall.
Sylvie hurriedly groomed herself. Her clothes were wrinkled, and it was easy to know what happened between them. When she found her hair was messy, she had been pulled into the house.
Everyone was watching TV.
When they suddenly came in, Miriam called out, “Have you been out for a walk? The air is fresh outside. Come and eat the fruit!”
Aiden watched the TV, glanced at them, felt a little shocked, and turned his gaze at the TV.
Mrs. Sabrina realized something when she saw Sylvie looked down shyly and pulled Miriam’s skirt. Miriam looked at Mrs. Sabrina in confusion and Mrs. Sabrina blinked. “They seem to be very tired. Let them take the fruit to their bedroom!”
Miriam looked up at Sylvie and Marley. She suddenly smiled. “I’m a fool. Young people need their own space. Go to have fruit upstairs. Don’t come down!”
“Dad, Mom, Mrs. Sabrina, we’re going up!” Sylvie said in a low voice.
“Go ahead!” Aiden nodded.
Mrs. Sabrina walked up with the fruit and handed it to Marley, “Marley, you take it upstairs!”
“Alright!” Marley did not feel embarrassed at all. On the contrary, he said good night to everyone, “Mom, Dad and Mrs. Sabrina, good night! Go to bed early!”
Marley went upstairs with the fruit in one hand and Sylvie in the other.
Behind them came the laughter of Miriam and Mrs. Sabrina.
“Madam, you and master will have a grandchild soon!”
“That’s very good. Our house is too big. We need children to make the atmosphere lively. It’s better that Sylvie give birth to two babies so we will look after the children at home in the future!” Miriam was very happy.
Marley heard the dialogue downstairs and was stunned!
The first grandchild of the Hughes family should be surnamed McCarthy! How could he explain it to his parents?
Upon returning to the room on the third floor, Sylvie immediately went to take a bath, put on the pajamas prepared by Mrs. Sabrina and lay on the bed!
“Eat the fruit!”
“Help yourself!” She murmured. “I’m sleepy and want to sleep!”
She threw herself on the bed without being covered with quilt and fell asleep!
Marley was amused, caught the thin quilt and covered her. Sylvie turned over and fell asleep comfortably.
Marley looked at her lovely sleeping face with a smile on his lips.
After taking a bath, he tucked up the quilt, lay beside her and held her tightly.
Good night, my little wife!
At seven o’clock in the morning, Marley got up.
After washing and combing, he put on clean clothes. He walked back to the bedroom, sat on the edge of the bed and caressed her warm little face. After a night, his face was not so swollen, but the eye socket was still bruised. He had no idea whether he could go to work tomorrow.
Sylvie was still sleeping, but she frowned when she felt his cold hands. He said softly, “Sylvie, it’s time to get up. My parents are waiting for us to have breakfast!”
“Well!” Sylvie nodded drowsily.
Marley lowered his head and kissed her forehead. “Hurry up!”
Sylvie got up, got out of bed in a daze and washed herself!
