Chapter 62: Kingsley’s Attentiveness, Gianna Being Touched
“Honey.” Gianna’s soft pleasant mutter melted his heart.
Kingsley’s Adam apple obviously rolled.
Since Gianna was looking at him with her head raised, she could see his throat very clearly from her angle.
She wondered what he was enduring at that moment.
She felt that his muscles had tensed up. This text is property of Nô/velD/rama.Org.
Although she was covering his eyes and his eyes were closed, she could still sense something burning fiercely.
Her palm was almost scalded.
Kingsley let out a grunt. His voice was slightly coarse and deep but attractive.
He seemed to reply to what she said just now, when she called him “honey”.
Gianna blushed.
Her face flushed greatly.
She was actually not used to calling someone that intimately.
She would feel uneasy and shy.
She was indeed shy now.
She somehow felt super embarrassed.
She recalled the fact that she had married Caesar for ten years.
During those ten years, they would only address each other by their names or nicknames. They had never called each other “honey” or “darling”.
Yet she had called Kingsley that way now.
She had changed her way of addressing during the first night they “got married”.
She was inexplicably annoyed and she had no idea why she was losing her temper. She snapped at Kingsley, “Could you promise me now?”
Kingsley let out another emotionless grunt as a reply.
Yet Gianna had chosen to trust him now.
What else could she do besides trusting him?
She was the one taking the initiative to collaborate with him, yet she had seemed to be under his control for the whole process.
Gianna slowly removed her hands nervously.
She saw Kingsley closing his eyes. His long eyelashes looked even more conspicuous under the light.
She would be astonished if his eyelashes were not planted.
She carefully looked at him and noticed he had been closing his eyes.
She then left the scene.
She escaped at high speed while being naked on her red high heels.
She was afraid that he would see her naked body when he suddenly opened his eyes.
Yet he had not opened his eyes at length.
He had been standing in his room in a daze for a long while.
His body temperature which was rising just now dropped.
He then slowly opened his eyes.
He looked at his empty room.
He looked down and saw a pile of clothes scattered on the floor.
They were worn by Gianna.
A smile broke upon his lips as he looked at them.
He walked past them and straight into the bathroom.
It looked like the cold shower he took just now had gone to no avail again.
…
Gianna finished taking her bath. She removed her makeup and put on a mask.
Although extra toothbrush and towel were prepared when she came to the room last time, the room was not well-equipped like now.
Everything a woman would need was prepared.
Skincare products, makeup set, toothbrush, towel, bath towel, bathrobe, and even fitted clothes were all put on a rack inside the bathroom neatly. What made her even more surprised was, Kingsley’s huge
closet which was equipped with men’s clothing was all replaced by women’s clothing. The price tags were not even removed and each of them was Gianna’s size.
Gianna was still touched.
As she lied on the bed, her mind was still full of episodes she saw in the closet just now.
She had actually considered moving her things into Kingsley’s place earlier, yet Kingsley had not given her a clear reply until she knew she was getting married. She certainly could not move her things here just like that.
She initially thought she would just endure it and let the housemaid deliver the things here the next day, yet she did not expect that she had enjoyed everything tonight.
She took off the mask and cleaned her face, applying high class skincare products on her face.
Her skin was normal but slightly dry. She had to say that the skincare products Kingsley prepared for her actually suited her skin well. Her skin managed to absorb the product essence after she applied it and her skin looked glowing. Her skin was smooth and tender when she touched it and she felt utmost comfortable.
She lied on her bed once again and turned off the room light.
She closed her eyes.
She began to recall everything that happened today.
Not only towards Caesar, others hadn’t expected that either.
Even she would suspect whether everything she was experiencing now was real or not.
Or maybe she was already dead; it was just that her soul had used its consciousness to make up a completely new life for her.
She let out a grim smile.
Of course not.
She could sense very clearly that everything was real.
She rolled over and forbade her to think further.
After all, she was indeed feeling sleepy, and she was exhausted.
She really needed to rest.
…
Not knowing what time was it the next day, Gianna was woken up by the knocking sound of the door.
She was sleeping soundly, and she was even dreaming.
Of course, she no longer remembered how many dreams she had, but at least the dreams were not so bad.
She got down from the wrong side of bed and opened the door.
Kingsley was half leaning against the door and he said absent-mindedly, “We need to return to the Walker’s house today.”
“…” Gianna looked at him.
“Unless you want to let them know our marriage is just sham marriage.” Kingsley looked carefree.
Gianna certainly did not want that to happen.
After all, no matter who they faced, the truth might be spread out the moment it was exposed.
Wouldn’t her plan backfire her when that happened?
Not to mention it would be a tedious task to explain to the elders of the Walker family that it was just a sham marriage.
She said, “Give me half an hour.”
She then abruptly closed the door.
Kingsley smiled.
He then went downstairs.
Gianna certainly did not return to her sleep after she closed the door.
She did not sleep much and the reason she slightly overslept today was because she was too tired yesterday. Now that she was woken up, she did not have any urge to sleep.
She quickly cleaned herself up and went to the closet to choose clothes.
It was exactly a moderate boutique, except there was no storeroom.
She chose a pale pink cheongsam and a white coat on the outside to give people a warm, open- minded and less aggressive impression. After putting a light makeup, it would be the best look she had to meet the elders.
She opened the door and went downstairs.
She saw Kingsley from afar. He was sitting beside an alfresco dining table, reading the newspaper while having breakfast.
He was now wearing a white shirt and a khaki fitted casual trousers. Although his clothing was casual and he looked lethargic, he was still extremely attractive and no one could move their eyes away from him after taking a glance.
Gianna forced herself to look away.
She walked towards Kingsley.
Kingsley put down his newspaper, stood up and pulled the chair for her like a gentleman.
Gianna glimpsed at him and said, “Thank you.”
Kingsley let out a smile abruptly.
Gianna secretly exclaimed at the gigantic power a smile could bring.
