The girl’s long hair, which had just been washed, gave off a faint fragrance of shampoo. Archie greedily inhaled it, and his body had already started to heat up.
There was not a trace of light in his serene eyes. He just wanted to suppress this little thing and do it once in every corner of the room.
Emma lowered her little head and her beautiful eyes narrowed. Suddenly, she felt a man’s rough finger passing through her skin and her entire body trembled for no reason.
It was as if there was an electric current running through her body.
Emma’s face turned red and she did not know why. It seemed like she had really been developed by Archie to be a little too sensitive.
If this man were to lightly clench his fist, it would disturb her mind and make her unable to calm down.
Furthermore, his slightly heavy hot breath had recklessly sprayed onto the back of her body. It burned her tender skin and instantly gave rise to a layer of pink color.
“Come here, I’ll dry it for you!” A large palm suddenly stretched out from her waist and wrapped around her slender waist in an extremely overbearing manner. It brought her towards the hairdryer.
Emma trembled and quickly stretched out a small hand. Instinctively, she grabbed the towel that she had tied up.
If it fell off just like that, Archie would have to say that she did it on purpose.
Sigh, this man just likes to add more to his crime and make her suffer all kinds of embarrassment.
Fortunately, the man did not do anything bad. He really turned on the hairdryer and gently blew her long hair.
Soft strands of hair slid down from his fingertips, and Archie’s breathing became heavier.
Emma stood up straight and tensed. She only hoped that Archie would quickly blow her long hair dry. Otherwise, she would not feel good in her panic.
The hairdryer suddenly stopped. Not only the hairdryer, even the lights in the bedroom were turned off at this moment.
“Ah. . . ” Emma let out a cry of surprise and then asked in a panic, “Archie, what’s wrong?”
The man quickly pulled her into his embrace from the shock and replied in a deep voice, “It should be a blackout!”
Sure enough, at this moment, Uncle Suan took the flashlight and quickly walked upstairs. He said at the door, “Young master, there is a malfunction in the equipment, which caused the electric current to rebound and burn the main switch. It might take a few minutes to repair.”
“Got it. Hurry up and fix it!” Archie answered faintly.
Emma was a little sensitive because of the shooting incident last time. She lay in the man’s arms and panted. “Archie, could it be that someone did it on purpose? Why did the power go out all of a sudden?”
Archie laughed in a low voice. “Don’t worry. It was really an accident. I bought a few new equipment. Maybe there was a malfunction during the experiment.”
“You really didn’t want to use the power outage to harm us?” Emma blinked and then calmed down.
Archie comforted her. “I have investigated the background of all the people here and have yet to find any spies.”
“That’s good!” Emma secretly heaved a sigh of relief.
“Emma, your towel fell off!” In the silence, Emma suddenly heard the man’s low and hoarse voice by her ear.
Emma immediately panicked. “It can’t be, why did it fall?”
She quickly squatted down to check, but found that the man had already tightly gripped her waist. In the next moment, he directly lifted her up, and she could only hang onto him.
“Archie. . . ” Emma’s voice trembled, but it was not because she was afraid, but because she did not know what to do.
Emma wanted to cry but had no tears. This man. . .
He didn’t even let her go after the power outage.
In the darkness, the aura was uneven.
Emma didn’t even know what she looked like at this moment. She only felt dizzy and her brain went blank.
A few minutes later. . .
The lights in the bedroom were on.
Emma hid in Archie’s arms shyly. She could not raise her head anymore.
In the next hour, Emma once again experienced the man’s amazing physical strength.
Until she was tired and curled up in the man’s arms, sleepy.
Archie tucked her under the blanket, put on a nightgown, and walked to the study.
Although it was already very late, he still had some things to deal with.
Luisa sat on the floor in a daze. She bent her legs and looked at the pale wall in front of her.
She had put herself in the police station. She had never thought that she would be so lonely and helpless.
However, reality taught her the most painful lesson. Up until now, she had not even seen her own family.
She ate leftovers and wore only a single set of prison clothes. The cold made her shiver.
She suddenly regretted. For a man, she forced herself into such a desperate situation.
Ever since she was young, she had grown up in flowers and applause. She was a proud princess. In school, all kinds of different men stuffed gifts into her drawer, but she only fell in love with Archie, who treated her like nothing.
“Archie, why are you doing this to me? Why are you so cruel? I have loved you before, so why can’t you let me live?” She covered her face, cried, and muttered to herself like a madman.
However, there was no medicine for regret in this world. Therefore, Luisa still had to atone for the mistakes she had committed.
Early in the morning, after the heavy snow had stopped, there was a rare trace of sunlight.
Emma opened her eyes and stretched before getting up to wash up.
She changed into a house uniform and went downstairs. Just as she walked to the staircase, she heard a burst of bell-like laughter coming from the kitchen.
It was crisp and happy.
Emma’s sensitive nerves pulled and she instinctively sped up her footsteps.
Stepping down the last step of the stairs, she looked towards the dining hall and indeed saw the woman called Yunita at the dining table.
She seemed to be looking at something interesting as she laughed complacently.
Archie, who was sitting beside her, was eating breakfast elegantly.
Although the two of them were not sitting together intimately, seeing such a scene in the early morning was still somewhat dazzling.
At least to Emma, it was really a little unpleasant.
Although she felt that her jealousy was meaningless, because she knew that Archie was definitely devoted to her.
But she really didn’t like having other women around him, laughing and shaking.
Uncle Suan was the first to discover Emma. He deliberately raised his voice and said, “Miss Emma, you woke up?”
Emma nodded at Uncle Suan and smiled. “Yes!”
Uncle Suan immediately turned around and gestured to the maid, “Bring Miss Emma’s breakfast over.”
Yunita, who was laughing happily at the table just now, suddenly had a stiff expression on her face.
However, she quickly turned around and greeted Emma who was walking over, “Miss Emma, why are you up so late? It is almost 9 o’clock!”
Actually, Emma also felt that waking up at 9 o’clock was indeed a little lazy. However, perhaps it was because no one had ever said that she woke up late like this before. Therefore, she never thought about this matter.
However, since Yunita had asked, she naturally had to politely reply to her.
“Oh, maybe I was too tired last night and my waists were a little sore. I accidentally slept for a while longer.” Emma also smiled and replied. Her beautiful eyes deliberately looked towards Archie.
Archie was currently drinking the warm milk on the table, and his thin lips consciously curved up and down on the glass cup.
He did not expect this woman to answer him like this. It really surprised him.
Yunita naturally did not expect this either. Her expression was a little awkward. However, she quickly understood the meaning of Emma’s words.
The word tossing and turning had destroyed all of her pride and confidence.
She was a little angry in her heart and sneered. Emma, what are you finding out? Have you found out that Archie loves you?
However, Emma choked on this topic and seemed to be unable to continue.
Emma lazily walked to Archie’s side, pulled out a chair, and directly sat down.
Archie’s deep eyes swept across her small face and put down the glass cup in his hand.
In the next second, Emma directly picked up his cup and drank the rest of the milk. Then she smiled at Archie. “I’m a little thirsty!”
Archie saw that there was still milk at the corner of her mouth. He extended his finger and gently wiped it. “Drink slowly, don’t choke!”
Emma immediately felt a little embarrassed. Was she acting a little too excessively just now?
Yunita who was by the side felt that she was so angry that she was about to vomit blood from the scene in front of her.
The maid brought a breakfast specially made for Emma to her and said, “Miss Emma, please enjoy your meal!”
Yunita was eating bread as her eyes looked towards Emma’s breakfast and deliberately asked curiously, “Miss Emma, why don’t you eat bread and milk with us?”
Emma looked at her soup and porridge and replied with a smile, “Oh, I am not in good health and am recuperating.”
Archie, who was beside her, also faintly replied, “We are planning to have a child. She needs to properly nourish her body.”
Yunita suddenly felt so depressed that she did not want to ask anything else. She felt that coming here early this morning was really not very rational.
For no reason, she felt a belly full of anger.
“Oh, is that so? Cousin, I heard that the reason you guys divorced previously was because Miss Emma could not bear children. Is there something wrong with her body?”
What Emma was most afraid of was others calling her sick and unable to give birth to a child.
So when Yunita asked these questions, her small face was somewhat stiff and the hand that was holding the spoon was also tightly clenched.
Her beautiful eyes stared at the rib porridge and kept blinking randomly, not knowing how to answer.
At this time, Archie took the tissue and wiped the corner of his mouth lightly. He still said with the same indifferent tone, “She is not sick. Maybe there is a problem with my body.”
Emma’s nerves instantly stiffened and she suddenly looked up at Archie.
Archie threw an electric eye at her. Emma instantly understood. Was Archie trying to protect her?
When Yunita heard this, she was instantly shocked and cold sweat broke out on her back. She quickly said with concern, “I’m really sorry, cousin. I didn’t mean to offend you. It’s just that I don’t know what kind of problem you have. Do you need to find a doctor to treat you? I know a lot of very authoritative experts. . . ”
“It’s not a big problem. It might be that. . . The housing affairs are too frequent! I’m exhausted!” Archie directly interrupted Yunita’s words.
However, what he was going to do next was. . . What he said made Emma blush again.
This man. . . Can he not be so direct? She was embarrassed.
Yunita, “. . .” Her head was full of dog blood.
Emma immediately laughed in a low voice.
Yunita looked at Emma’s uncontrollable smile and felt her happiness and complacency.
All of a sudden, she felt as if she had been played by them. Perhaps the problem lied with Emma.
However, Archie was protecting her. That was why he placed the problem on himself.
Yunita was about to die from anger. Archie really doted on this Emma.
