Looking at Lachlan’s innocent expression, Miranda gave him a fierce glare.
However, right after he finished explaining, Scarlet turned to look at Lachlan, her eyes filled with complexity.
The next moment, she also glared at Mason and said to Lachlan, “I can’t exactly say that I’ve let go! I can only say that in my heart, Lachlan is like an idol, someone I admire and adore, but I know it’s an unattainable love. And I know that he is the man I can’t have.”
Saying this, Scarlet looked at Mason, her eyes filled with affection. “And you, Mason, make me feel more real. I know that you can be with me, protect me, and you’re more suitable for me. Do you… understand what I mean?”
Upon hearing these words, Mason nodded. “I understand! Of course, I understand. Heh heh, I’m not jealous that you admire my brother-in-law because I also admire my brother-in-law. I admit that I can’t compare to my brother-in-law.”
Saying this, Mason scratched his head and winked at Lachlan.
Emmanuel and Cara exchanged puzzled looks, their expressions becoming somewhat strange.
However, they didn’t say anything…
Let the young people deal with their own affairs.
Who hasn’t experienced such times…
Emmanuel coughed and glared at his daughter. “Scarlet, don’t talk nonsense! You’re saying this in front of your future in-laws.”
Scarlet bit her lip, her face blushing. “I’m just speaking the truth.”
At this moment, Lachlan smiled wryly and said to Scarlet, “Miss Harris, I don’t deserve it.”
“Ah… I really don’t deserve it…”
As he spoke, his face twitched a few times, and he took a sharp breath, his expression a mix of pain and happiness.
Underneath the table, Miranda’s hand was mercilessly pinching the soft flesh of someone’s thigh.
And then… she mercilessly twisted it!
Even with Lachlan’s strong abilities, he felt like he was on the verge of death.
Don’t forget, his goddess wife also possessed the physical strength of an early Nascent Soul stage. She didn’t hold back when torturing him.
Don’t be fooled by her sweet and delicate appearance. He wasn’t even sure if he could defeat her now.
Seeing Lachlan’s embarrassed appearance, everyone present couldn’t help but chuckle.
Emmanuel and Cara had smiles on their faces.
That heavy atmosphere seemed to have lightened up a lot.
…
That night, after bidding farewell to the Graham family and a few other guests, Lachlan and Miranda, along with Nora, stayed at the Lowe Mansion to play mahjong with their parents until nearly eleven o’clock.
Then, carrying the already asleep Nora, they returned to their villa in Emerald Green Estates.
As for Mason, that brat, as soon as he finished eating the cake, he took Scarlet out on a date.
No need to mention how smug he was!
Talking aside, laughing aside, but to be honest, when Lachlan finally saw Mason and Scarlet get together, he secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
Lachlan knew better than anyone how much Mason approved of him as his brother-in-law.
In a situation like this, if the woman he liked still had thoughts about him, it would be really awkward.
Even unacceptable.
The way things were now was what Lachlan was happy to see.
That night!
Inside the villa in Emerald Green Estates.
The current goddess CEO naturally wouldn’t act pretentiously and sleep in separate rooms from Lachlan anymore.
However, after Lachlan returned, Miranda still kicked him out of the bedroom.
This made him wryly smile, thinking that Scarlet’s words earlier tonight must have made Mason a bit jealous.
It’s very likely that I’ll be sleeping on the couch tonight…
Just over half an hour later, while Lachlan was bored watching TV, he received a phone call from Miranda.
“Come upstairs! Hmph!”
In the phone call, his goddess wife’s voice sounded haughty and commanding.
“Okay!”
Lachlan’s heart leaped with joy, and he hurriedly ran upstairs.
In that moment, there was no trace of the decisive and formidable expert he usually portrayed.
With an excited mood, Lachlan opened the door.
The next second, his heart skipped a beat, and then… he became even more excited!
Looking at Miranda in front of him, Lachlan couldn’t help but swallow hard.
It seemed like she had just taken a shower, with her hair pinned up behind her head, still slightly damp.
This made the already stunning Miranda goddess look even more enticing.
But what was even more captivating was that Miranda was currently wearing a set of black lingerie. The thin layer of black fabric revealed glimpses of her body, causing one’s blood to rush.
On her feet, she wore a pair of ten-centimeter high heels!
And in her hand, she held… a black whip.
She stood there emitting an indescribable aura and a deadly charm.
“Honey! Why are you dressed like this?”
Lachlan swallowed his saliva and asked with a rapidly beating heart.
“What? Don’t you like it?”
Miranda raised an eyebrow, coldly asking.
“I like it! I like it!”
Lachlan nodded quickly.
“Hmph! Someone said that wearing clothes and hitting is considered domestic violence, but taking them off is called seduction, right?”
Miranda lifted her delicate chin, playing with the whip in her hand, her lips slightly curled as she asked.
“Yes! Exactly…”
Lachlan nodded excitedly.
Oh my god!
I’m going to die!
My goddess wife actually knows how to play this kind of game?
It’s so thrilling!
“Hmph, then hurry up and wait to be punished!”
“The Great Sage equal to Heaven in other people’s eyes, right? Watch how I deal with you!”
Miranda said, her pretty face tinged with a blush, her voice both sweet and domineering.
“Yes!”
Lachlan hurriedly agreed.
Miranda snorted, and under someone’s obedient compliance, she “disciplined” him harshly.
To be honest, when she heard Scarlet say those things today, although she felt a tinge of jealousy, she was more proud.
Her man, who was regarded as unattainable by other women, was he really that extraordinary?
After all, compared to herself, Scarlet was not lacking in any aspect.
But even such an outstanding woman regarded Lachlan as her idol, even a god!
And her idol, her god, was her genuine husband, a man who was willing to do anything and everything for her.
So, amidst her jealousy, Miranda’s sense of feminine pride was greatly satisfied.
Of course, she still needed to give Lachlan a little reprimand.
Just to prevent him from truly wandering outside!
But it had to be done in a way that would leave a deep impression on him without making this bastard feel repulsed and resistant.
Looking at his current smug and lecherous expression, Miranda’s lips curled slightly.
