Gabriel clutched the lollipop in his hand tightly, his big grape-like eyes looking around at the people around him. His small voice was confused, “Where’s my mommy?”
How did she disappear all of a sudden?
“…”
The crowd was silent.
Blanca took his little hand and pointed to the toys on the coffee table, saying, “Why don’t you look at these gifts again and play with them?”
Play with dolls?
Gabriel frowned like a little old man, but he didn’t want to hurt Blanca’s feelings, so he waved his little hand and looked serious, “No, no, my father said I should focus on my studies.”
“…”
Everyone was speechless again.
What a treasure Paige had given birth to.
…
“Bang.”
A whirlwind swept through, and the door slammed shut.
The next second, Paige collapsed directly onto the soft bed, and Enrico knelt in front of her, his hands beginning to tear off her clothes.
“What are you doing?”
Paige hurriedly held down her clothes, and when she looked up, she saw his gloomy face. Her heart sank. “Enrico…”
She knew why he had suddenly returned in such a hurry.
Fortunately, she had changed her clothes in time.
“Let go,” Enrico said, his head bowed, his eyes sharp and irritable, holding back his displeasure.
“I’m not hurt, you’ve surrounded me with a net, I’ll be fine,” she said softly, her fingers entwining with his.
“I’ll say it again, let go.”
Enrico’s face grew even worse, and he stared at her coldly.
“Enrico…”
“Paige Clarke!”
He bit out her name word by word, with a chilling ferocity that made her blood boil.
“…”
Paige looked at him helplessly. In the end, she didn’t persuade him. His fingers were broken one by one, and then thoroughly examined.
His hawk-like gaze did not let go of any place.
Paige curled up her fingers uncomfortably, “You see, I said I didn’t…”
Enrico sealed her lips, and his scorching palm stroked her neck, feeling a thin pulse above it, rubbing it back and forth. His lips and tongue moved downwards, kissing the blue pulse, licking and sucking.
The fragrance of her neck fell into the tip of his nose.
His eyes darkened, “Have you had a shower?”
“Yes.”
He scooped her up in his arms and his voice was hoarse, “Then accompany me in the shower again, I’m sweating from driving.”
“Driving can make you sweat?”
Paige was stunned, driving is not a physically demanding sport.
“I mean the next drive.”
“…”
Paige was speechless.
Sure enough, Enrico was sweating, and not only him, Paige was also sweating all over, and had to take another shower.
Back in bed, Paige could hardly wait to bury her face in the duvet. “So many people downstairs…”
Had she just experienced another embarrassing situation?
“Don’t worry, just say we were upstairs discussing how to handle today.” Enrico rolled onto his side and leaned over her, burying his face in her neck and breathing heavily.
They’d used the same shower gel, and she didn’t know what made him smell so good.
And then there was what he’d said…
She felt a little helpless. “They’d better believe it,”
They’ve all been there before, she’s not that optimistic.
“Your son can believe it,” Enrico said, leaning against her neck.
Paige reached up to hold his head, her fingers burrowing into his hair and randomly tousling it, making his semi-wet hair messier.
Enrico rubbed against the water stains on her hand, his voice low and stern, “From today, you should not act alone.”
“I know…”
“If you don’t listen, I’ll lock you up.”
Enrico was annoyed, and he couldn’t hear a word she said.
“…” Paige pursed her lips and simply stopped talking.
“I’ll take care of the chaebol myself. You’ve done what you needed to do. You found the real culprit behind the scenes. You’ve done your part. From now on, you’ll stay at home and study with Gabriel,” Enrico announced his decision coldly.
By the time he got the news, the fight on Paige’s side had already ended.
He was in a meeting with Jaden and the others when he got the call. His hands could barely hold the documents. The large office felt suffocating, and it wasn’t until he heard the words that his heart rate slowed.
His breath landed on her neck, tickling and warming her.
She played with his damp short hair and laughed softly, “Oh, is that so?
Hearing this, Enrico suddenly moved away from her neck, propped himself up, and stared at her with lowered eyes. His sexy eyes were filled with disbelief, “You agree?”
His Paige actually knows how to give in?
“Just as you said, I’ve done everything I can do on my side, and I’ve built Temple in Heaven. Now there’s no special need for me, so I was going to go to the consortium to find you and help you out or something…”
Paige observed his expression as she spoke slowly, “But since you want me to be a full-time mom at home, I can do that too.”
Enrico’s eyes were a little wet from the shower, and his long eyelashes were also wet and enticing.
But at the moment, his eyes were very stiff.
Suddenly, he felt very funny looking at her.
Paige suppressed a smile as Enrico stared at her, “You want to keep me company?”
“I was, but since you want me to stay with Gabriel, I’ll stay with Gabriel,” Paige said with a straight face.
As soon as she finished speaking, she felt a sharp pain on her lips, and it was Enrico who had bitten her.
Enrico could tell that she had done it on purpose, and his eyes glared at her angrily, “You’re not usually so obedient.”
“So, what am I supposed to do next?”
“Stay with me!”
Enrico squeezed out these words between his teeth, lowered his body to hug her, and started to do whatever he wanted to her again.
She hurriedly tried to block him off, “Okay, okay, this is a critical period, can we waste less time on this kind of thing?”
“No, I can only work when I’m refreshed.”
Enrico reached under the covers.
“…”
Is she a mint candy? It’s still refreshing.
Paige kept blocking him off, and suddenly she smelled a faint fragrance leaking in from the closed door. She said, “It seems like someone is cooking.”
The fragrance was quite strong, the kind that makes one’s appetite grow.
“Oh.” Enrico didn’t care.
“I’m hungry.”
“…”
Enrico looked up and finally stopped.
Paige changed her clothes again, looked in the mirror again and again, deliberately covering the kiss marks on her neck with foundation, making sure she wouldn’t look awkward before leaving the room with Enrico.
It was dark outside.
Once downstairs, the smell of the food became even stronger, as if there was seafood and steamed spare ribs.
Paige looked down and saw that in the large living room, there were only Beatrice and Gabriel left. Gabriel was sitting on Beatrice’s lap, yawning, while Beatrice was fanning him with the Three Character Classic, saying curiously, “How come you know how to enjoy yourself so much, and you say that your studies are the most important thing?”
“Don’t worry, don’t worry,”
Gabriel waved his hands nonchalantly, but suddenly he caught a glimpse of something in the corner of his eye. He turned his head and saw Enrico coming down the stairs. His face suddenly paled with fear, and he quickly rolled off Beinice’s body, grabbed the San Zi Jing and started reading.
