“Good grief!” His voice was so sexy that she wanted to pounce on him. But her feminine modesty could only allow the thought and not the action.
After a long time, Sachin opened his mouth and asked, “What happened to Yayoi today?”
The moment he mentioned her bosom friend, Rosiley drove all the enchanting thoughts from her mind and sighed. “It’s all Morphy’s fault.”
Sachin raised his slender brows slightly. “What did he do?”
“since he’s unable to provide Yayoi with what she wants, he ought to have left her alone. Now Yayoi has fallen for him. In order to draw a line between them, she could only steel herself and break up with him.”
As she spoke, Rosiley felt sorrow in her heart. “Yayoi has just been hurt by that bastard, Han Yichen. Now, she has to undergo more suffering. I really feel sorry for her.”
When she thought of Yayoi’s dejected and lonely expression, her heart could not help tangling into a ball, aching badly.
“I’m sorry.” Sachin tightened his embrace around her waist. Their heads touched, his face pressing against her cheek. “I will talk to Morphy about this.”
Rosiley raised her arms to cover his hands, saying unhappily, “I know Morphy likes Yayoi too. But I’m still mad at him. A grown man like him should know the severity of things.”
Sachin smiled helplessly. “Then let me call him over, and you can bash him.”
“He’s your cousin. Won’t you feel the pain?” Rosiley turned her head sideways and squinted at him.
“I won’t. I will only feel the hurt for you.”
His black eyes were rippling with soft, tender light.
Rosiley snorted. Although she felt touched inside, she still said, “Who’d believe you? He’s your cousin who has grown up with you.”
“A girl who won’t speak her mind.” Smiling, Sachin tousled her hair. His eyes were full of doting affection.
“What do you mean by me not speaking my mind?” Rosiley pretended to be mad and slapped his hand away. “Get Morphy here. I will bash him right in front of you and see if you’ll feel the pain.”
“Really?” Sachin raised his brows.
Rosiley nodded heavily. “Of course.”
“Then I’ll give him a call.”
As he said that, Sachin reached out to grab his cell phone on the desk. He unlocked it and was just about to dial when a hand stretched over to cover the screen.
He raised his head and saw her cunning smile. “It was just a joke. I’m not interested in bashing that guy. It’ll be a waste of my energy.”
Following that, she slipped off of his thighs. “I’m going for a bath. Let’s chat later.”
She had suddenly eluded his embrace. He did not react in time.
By the time he did, she was at the door, turning around and making eyes at him. “Mr. Lu, when you study, please don’t forget the time. Remember, a lovely wife is waiting for you.”
After saying that, she pouted and blew him a kiss before walking out.
Sachin gave a low chuckle. since she had said so, he would certainly not make her wait.
So he shut the book on his desk and switched off the computer. Then he got up and left the study.
Soon after, a girlish gasp came from the bathroom.
“Sachin, why are you in here?”
“I’m showering with you to save water.”
