Chapter 263: Naivety
Terrence Sterling realized what Meredith was about to do and quickly stopped her, “Meredith, there’s no need.” Even though Meredith didn’t mind, he felt embarrassed himself.
Despite being a billionaire who was not short of female company, Terrence was quite naive about certain intimate aspects, still somewhat innocent. There were some “marital lifestyles” he was very conservative about and had never tried.
Meredith smiled and said, “It’s okay, I’m willing to do it for you.”
Terrence sat up, eyes full of love as he caressed Meredith’s face, then pulled her back into his arms, “Meredith, it is enough for me.”
Seeing him refuse again, Meredith didn’t insist further and laughed, “I thought you’d like it. Turns out, my husband is still a pure-hearted little boy.”
At first, Meredith wasn’t sure about Terrence’s preferences, worried she couldn’t bring freshness into their intimate life, even researching online how a woman could please a man.
When you truly love someone, you find ways to make them happy.
Terrence pinched her cheek, “Wait till we have our baby, then I’ll take good care of you.” Meredith laughed heartily, beckoning with her fingers, “Come on then.”This text is © NôvelDrama/.Org.
Terrence pretended to bite at her finger, which Meredith quickly retracted, laughing and scolding, “Terrence Sterling, are you a dog?”
The couple played around in the room, while Azure, listening at the door, felt rather uncomfortable. Unable to resist, she knocked on the door, intentionally interrupting the couple’s intimate moment.
“Terry, I’ve made some snacks, do you want some?” Hearing the voice, the couple looked at each other, and Meredith wrapped herself in a blanket to sleep, “You go deal with her, I’m going to sleep.”
Terrence looked at Meredith pretending to sleep, a smile playing on his lips, “Aren’t you worried about me with her? Sending your husband out in the middle of the night?”
Meredith remained silent.
Terrence didn’t go out, pretending not to hear the noise outside, and cuddled up with Meredith to sleep. He wasn’t foolish; if he went out to see Azure, it would definitely upset his wife.
Azure knocked a couple more times, but hearing no response and no one opening the door, she understood the situation and took her prepared garlic pesto pasta downstairs. On her way down, she ran into Justin in the living room smoking. Thinking it better not to waste the pasta and snacks she’d been holding, she offered them to him, “Here, you eat it.” With that, she turned and left.
Justin was left speechless as Azure walked away. Looking at the steaming pasta, he turned and saw Azure heading back to her room. The kindness of a warm meal during his most disheartened moment touched him differently. Extinguishing his cigarette, he began to eat the pasta. Due to the online scandal, Justin hadn’t eaten all day and now felt revitalized by the warm meal.
The next day, Azure, who had the habit of running early in the morning, returned and met Justin at the entrance to the living room. “Thanks for last night,” Justin said.
Azure bluntly replied, “No need, it would have been thrown out otherwise.” As she tried to pass him to take a shower, she gossiped about the headlines online, “Your dad is slandering you online, are you just going to hide here and do nothing?”
Azure didn’t believe the online slander, not because she knew Justin well, but because she trusted Terrence Sterling. If Terrence brought him home, then Justin must be decent. Her words surprisingly warmed Justin’s heart as it felt like being surrounded by sunshine. Azure was the first stranger to believe in him, deeply moving him, though he momentarily forgot to respond.
“Silly.”
Azure commented and then went to take a shower.
This conversation at the living room entrance was witnessed by Meredith from the staircase. Interestingly, Justin and Azure looked unexpectedly harmonious and well-matched standing together.
