Chapter 24: Things That Couples Usually Do
Brian just became my secret lover in the evening, this morning, he had to go on an unexpected business trip.
Originally, this business trip was led by Sunshine Bank’s vice president, but he suddenly had a fever last night and had to be hospitalized.
During the day, he was busy with the group’s activities, at night, he took advantage of the time to video call me. The feeling of lying on the bed, eating snacks while looking at him through the phone screen is great.
I miss him so much and also look forward to the day he comes back to me. I miss the masculine scent of mint lingers on his body, his soft hands, and his loving eyes that are only for me.
Today is Saturday, Mrs. Alina only worked half a day and then went home.
After dinner, she invited me to watch an entertainment program with her.
Sometimes, I peeked at her, wondering how she would react if she knew that I and Brian were in love.
I understand she’s looking forward to him and Hellen’s reunion, just as his grandfather is.
“Oh, that guy didn’t press the date button after all.”
I lowered my voice and expressed regret when I saw the couple’s failed matchmaking by the MC. Only half of the heart on the girl’s side shows red, while on the boy’s side, it’s still dark blue.
Her face was clearly sad, even though she tried to smile wryly.
“As soon as I heard them talking back and forth, I was already suspicious. If two people are not on the same level, it is difficult for them to be a couple. Family background and education and career are too disparate.” Mrs. Alina spoke up.
My mood turned bad after hearing her say those words. Yes, she said, laughed happily with me, let me eat together, loved me, and bought me gifts, but that doesn’t mean she ranks me on the same level as the elite.
And that doesn’t mean she agrees to let me become Brian’s wife. I can only be with him as a maid, not as his lover, not as his wife.
When the entertainment program ended, we went to our room. I clicked on the phone that was charging to check and saw twelve missed calls.
Didn’t Brian say that he was busy eating dinner with his partner tonight? Why did he call me so much? Did something happen to him?
I quickly called him, my heart pounding and I felt extremely insecure. After a while, he appeared on the third call.
Does this guy have a habit of not wearing a shirt when he sleeps? He exposed his half-naked body in front of me. Looking at his stupid face, I know he just got out of the blanket. But he’s so cute.
“Why didn’t you pick up the phone?” Brian covered his long yawn with his hand and asked.
“I watched TV with your mother, and just finished watching, I went back to my room. I don’t go with men.”
Referring to his mother, I remember the words she said earlier; I was a little sad, but still tried to keep a bright smile on my lips.
I really wanted to ask him how long this love will last, how far we can hold hands and walk together, but reason has helped me hold back.
I believe that gradually everything will be okay, I will try to get his mother’s approval.
“I believe in you, Bella. Because you accepted to be my girlfriend, even if you go out with men, even Richard, I won’t doubt or worry.”
Oh, is Brian mocking me about the fact that I forbade him to meet Hellen?
In all aspects, he is much better than Richard, so he is confident, and I, besides clinging to the fact that he loves me, what do I have to be confident about? That is a dependency.
“Do you miss me, baby? I’ll be back tomorrow afternoon, probably late afternoon. We’ll do what couples do together.”
What do couples do? What does he mean?
I suddenly remembered what happened a few weeks ago. Does he want to drag me to bed? I’m not ready for the next sex yet.
I don’t want to have sex indiscriminately because that will make him bored with me quickly.
Except for that vague time, I wanted the sexual relationship between me and him to happen when we were both married.
“What we will do?” I tried to ask.
“You will know soon. Okay, you go to bed; I drank some alcohol today so I’m too sleepy.”
“Okay, good night.”
After kissing me through the screen, Brian immediately turned off the phone, leaving me with a jumble of thoughts.
Because he said he would come back late in the afternoon, so I guess Mrs. Alina was at home, he probably wouldn’t have dared to do anything stupid.
Rest assured, Bella.
However, as soon as I opened my eyes the next morning, I saw the beautiful mistress carrying her backpack and walking down the stairs.
Today is Sunday. Is she going to travel?
She was carrying such a large backpack, she probably wouldn’t be back today.
What’s going on? If my savior is gone, what should I do when Brian comes back and pounces on me?
“Where are you going?” I rushed to her side and asked.
“Oh, didn’t I tell you? Today I will travel with my friends, I will return tomorrow morning.”
The brighter the smile on Mrs. Alina’s lips, the more distorted the smile on my lips. Oh my god, the wolf Brian will eat me. Is there a way to keep her here?
“I… can I follow you?”
After saying that, I realized how crazy I was. How dare I ask the mistress to take me along? Who looks after the house? Who cleans up? Moreover, what will her noble and luxurious friends think?
Luckily for me, she didn’t mind that much and just walked over and stroked my hair lightly.
“I also want to take you away, but today Brian returned, he did not bring the key. Come on, someday, the three of us will travel together.”
“Yes.”
Mrs. Alina nodded, praised me for being obedient, and then walked straight away.
I rushed to the yard to open the gate for her. The moment the car disappeared from my view, I suddenly saw two horns of the demon that often appeared to tempt me to do evil, which was planted on Brian’s head.
Now, can I run away temporarily? I’ll be back when I’m mentally prepared.
When the clock struck two o’clock in the afternoon and I heard the doorbell ring, I gathered up my courage and ran to the gate to meet my lover in a mood of both joy and anxiety.
As soon as the car passed through the gate, Brian immediately lowered the window of the car and blinked a few times before driving into the garage.
And when I rushed to help him carry the luggage, he immediately lifted me up and put me on the top of the car to look at me.
“I still like to see you in real life.” His hand caressed my cheek, his voice was as gentle as water.
“You drank alcohol, didn’t you?” I winced slightly as his breath hit my face.
“Yes, just a little, I went to have lunch with some big business partners, so I drank some wine.”
“You are very tired after the business trip, but why do you still invite them to eat? Why don’t you make an appointment with them another day?”
Brian shook his head and then buried his head in my lap. I can feel that he is very tired.
My hands, which were swinging in the air because of the suddenness, gradually lowered onto his broad back to caress and pat.
How can he not get tired? The amount of money he earns is many times more than my salary, so of course his strength is also proportional to that.
If I hadn’t lived with him and his mother for three years, I would have thought that people who are bosses are very happy, just assigning work to subordinates, while they put their hands behind their backs, walking around.
“These businesses are important partners of Sunshine Bank, and the source of money they borrow from us is very large. Therefore, I need to keep them.” His deep voice sounded, his head constantly rubbing against me like a cat flirting with its owner.”
“How are things with the bank?”Copyright Nôv/el/Dra/ma.Org.
“There is a solution, I will increase the customer’s deposit interest rate and reduce the borrower’s interest rate. Everyone has greed. Moreover, tomorrow, the government agency will make news to reassure them. No matter what happens to the bank, the government still ensures the interests of customers, their money will not be lost.”
After saying that, Brian immediately let go of me, stood up straight, and showed a satisfied smile.
Poor my man, maybe he thought a lot to think of a way to settle everything.
However, at this moment, I find him extremely attractive and excellent.
I don’t want to lose him; I don’t want the distance between two different classes to become a wall between us.
But what should I do? Buy a stack of lottery tickets? Or number betting?
While thinking about making money legally and illegally, my whole body was suddenly lifted up by him. I reflexively wrapped my arms around his neck.
This cuddling pose is weird. I swing in front of him like a monkey. I’m so ashamed.
“Dude, put me down, the things in the car haven’t been taken out yet.”
“My clothes are all washed by the hotel staff, clean and fragrant, with no stains, it’s not too late to pick them up tomorrow. We need to do more important things now.”
My eyes widen and my irises roll around. The important thing that Brian said is something that couples often do, right?
I am not ready yet. I haven’t showered yet. Oh no, what the hell am I thinking? I don’t want to go to bed with him when we’ve just switched relationships. What should I do? What should I do now?
Brian carried me up the stairs, went straight to his room, and threw me on the bed.
Seeing him leisurely take off his tie and socks and unbutton a few buttons of his shirt near his neck, I just want to run away immediately.
I want pure love before it develops into lustful love; I don’t like this.
