“Yes, Paige.”
Several people responded, all looking a little more energetic.
Paige’s news was considered good news for them. The situation in the country was changing from bad to good, and the virus was still unknown. The conflicts between classes could suddenly erupt at any time. They really needed manpower and money.
After the meeting, a few people asked about her physical condition. After getting Paige’s reply that she was fine, the video conference ended.
Paige turned off the computer and took out her phone to read the news for a while.
She had been kidnapped by Jeremy for more than a day, and in just that time, the plutocrats had done a lot of things again. Some were frantically accumulating money, some were frantically laying off employees, and some were thinking of ways to ensure that their money could leave quietly.
The public was also calm for a while, but then they were provoked by the slightest bit of news and started to worry. There were also people marching and causing trouble one after another.
No matter how you look at it, this country is already in a state of sickness.
Paige sat there watching, when her phone was suddenly snatched from her hands.
She looked up, and was surrounded by the fresh, clean aroma of a shower. She felt her feet grow light, and she was already lifted up from the desk by Enrico.
Paige wrapped her arms around his neck, and looked into his eyes, which looked like they had been washed. She whispered, “I want to see it again.”
Enrico stared at her intently. “Either you get a good night’s sleep tonight, or I’ll build a cage to keep you in and live the life of a Davis family member.”
The threat in his words could not have been clearer.
If she didn’t get a good night’s sleep, he would not let her touch a thing starting tomorrow.
She knew he wasn’t joking. After all, she had not yet fully recovered her strength, and he would never let her go out to work.
So she begged, “Okay, I’ll sleep well tonight, let me down, I’ll go take a shower.”
“Do you still have the strength to shower?”
Enrico gave her a contemptuous look and carried her into the bathroom, putting her in the bathtub he had disinfected and rinsed several times.
The bathtub was full of a milky white milk bath, with some flower petals floating in it.
Such care…
Paige smiled at him, and Enrico quickly stripped her naked and carried her into the bathtub.
The water was just the right temperature, and as soon as she sat down, the cold of Paige’s body was immediately relieved by the warmth, and she let out a soft sigh.
A large hand covered her, supporting the milky white water as it scrubbed her neck. His palm was warm, and the tips of his fingers were slightly rough, as they gently rubbed against her skin.
“I’ll just soak myself and rinse off later,” Paige said.
“Don’t move.”
Enrico squatted down by the side of the bathtub, glancing at her unhappily before going around behind her and gathering her slightly damp hair at the top in a loose bun, tying it with a hair tie lying nearby in two random loops.
With her hair tied up, Paige’s slender neckline was completely exposed to his eyes, and milk-like water stains slid down her pale neck, down her round shoulders, and into the bath water.
This neck is really seductive.
Enrico knelt behind her, his palm holding a handful of water over her neck, watching the milk stains fall little by little, which made his throat tighten.
Paige was sitting in the bathtub, enjoying the comfort of the milk bath, when suddenly, a soft touch landed on her neck.
Enrico kissed her neck from behind, and a finger curled around a lock of her unfastened hair.
Her hair had grown longer in the past few days, and it was no problem for it to wrap around his finger a few times.
“…”
Is this really supposed to be a sign that she should rest?
Paige turned her head, before she could say anything, Enrico pinched her chin and sealed her lips. Their lips and tongues entwined, the milk stains sliding down her neck made her blood boil.
“I won’t touch you, I’ll just kiss twice.”
Enrico held her lips in his mouth, suppressing the restlessness in his chest, restraining himself and telling himself that she had not yet recovered her strength, no, absolutely not.
Paige looked into his dark eyes, her hand reaching out of the water to touch his handsome face. Thinking that there was still a tough battle ahead and tonight was a rare night of rest, she said, “Maybe just a little softer?”
This was like the victim innocently handing the killer a knife.
Enrico’s heart was pounding with excitement, and he tried hard to resist leaving her lips.
“… oh.”
Paige laughed, taking his hands that were tangled in her hair and pulling them away. “I’ll wash up by myself, you go out first.”
Enrico was pushed by her, and his chest suddenly felt empty. He leaned back discontentedly, reaching out to wash her for her, but as soon as he got close, the fragrance of milk filled the pool and hit his nose, and his throat became dry again.
Endure.
Have to endure.
Enrico repeatedly told himself, and one hand still slipped under the water.
Paige trembled. She didn’t refuse, and Enrico closed his eyes and kissed her. The bathrobe on his body stuck to her back, soaking it all up.
Suddenly, the sound of a cell phone came from outside, but Enrico came to his senses and opened his eyes. He looked at her like she was a demon, full of resentment, and then walked out with a dark face.
“…”
Paige was a little helpless. This person… couldn’t control himself, and blamed her for not refusing.
She tilted her head and rested it on the bathtub wall.
Enrico picked up Paige’s phone, which was not on silent mode. It was a video call, and he clicked on it. A small face pasted to the lens filled the entire screen of the phone.
“Daddy!”
Upon seeing him, Gabriel immediately shouted excitedly over there, and then quickly cut to the chase, “Where’s mommy?”
Over there, Gabriel was pulled away from the phone by Olivia.
Olivia didn’t realize that Enrico was the one answering the phone, and hastily said, “Young master, we just moved into Rose Estate today. Gabriel is probably a little unaccustomed to it and won’t go to sleep. He insists on video chatting with you.”
“Where’s mommy? Where’s mommy? Where’s mommy?”
Gabriel kept repeating like a broken record over there, his eyes wider than grapes and shining.
This doesn’t look like he’s not used to it, he’s clearly just too excited.
Enrico looked at him lazily and then walked towards the bathroom, “Your mother is taking a bath.”
Once inside the bathroom, he held his phone firmly against himself and looked down at the fair beauty in the bathtub, ‘It’s your son, talk to him for a while.”
Paige was completely immersed in the warm milk bath, her face was a little flushed from the steam, she had just heard Gabriel’s voice, her smile had already crooked up, but she said sternly, ‘Gabriel, what time is it, why aren’t you asleep?”
Hearing Paige’s voice, Gabriel became even more excited. His little head tilted from side to side as he searched the screen for Paige, but no matter how he looked, all he could see was Enrico’s face. He couldn’t help but yell, “Mommy, Mommy, I want to see you! I can’t sleep unless I see you!”
Olivia, who was standing nearby, hurriedly said, “Girls are taking a bath, so boys can’t look.”
“Well, okay.”
Gabriel pouted a little, a little depressed. Suddenly his eyes twinkled, and he thought of a question. He could hear his mother’s voice, so she must be next to his father.
His eyes widened. “Daddy! You can’t watch Mommy take a bath either! Go away!”
