Maria couldn't let this sort of thing tarnish the sanctity of the nunnery. She grabbed James' hand and suggested a compromise. "I promise you, I won't resist, but we have to do this somewhere else."
After calming himself down, James got out of bed, tidied his clothes, and opened the door. He then turned to Maria and said, "If you don't want to do it here, then let's do it outside."
She was rendered speechless. But it didn't seem like she had much of a choice.
Later, Maria realized that there was no escape for her because he was holding onto her hand tightly.
Under the guise of the night, he finally got what he wanted.
They had sex in the woods, far away from the nunnery. In the wilderness, Maria cursed him a thousand times in her head.
At last, after a long time of waiting around, James had sated his lust. It was already past midnight when they finished. He went back to the nunnery, carrying her in his arms.
After rinsing their bodies a bit, James packed up his belongings. By the time he was done packing, some of the nuns had already woken up.
He didn't sleep anymore and decided to leave the confines of the nunnery with some of his luggage.
Meanwhile, Coy was having fun in H City. There were many people who played with him, and he was even unwilling to return to Maria for the time being.
In the manor, Ethan was making fun of Coy. "Hey, Coy! I'm getting married. Would you like to be my flower boy?"
The little boy licked the tomato sauce on his lips, and asked with widened eyes, "What's a flower boy? Is it delicious?"
"You little foodie! A flower boy isn't food. I'm asking you to spread petals during my wedding," said Ethan.
'Petals?' "Okay!" Coy tilted his head, still looking confused.
At this time, a little girl wearing a skirt ran over and handed him something. "Coy, here, have some candies," she said.
He took the candies and said, "Thank you, Mona!"
Mona Lu was the daughter of Lawrence and Meagan. She was two months older than Coy.
"You're welcome."
Meagan brought the cut fruits to the children. After putting them down, she said something to the maid. Then, she went to the stables to look for Lawrence.
Mona grabbed a piece of Hami melon and gave it to Coy. Ethan wanted to stop her, but it was too late.
Coy had been raised as a wild child. And although he had paid attention to his hygiene, he was still young. He took the melon from Mona and put it into his mouth.
Ethan sighed.
He grabbed a tissue and wiped Mona's hands. "Mona, you can't grab something to eat without washing your hands first, remember?"
The girl nodded in response. "I'm sorry. I won't do it again."
Ethan combed her head with affection. "Oh, my sweet girl. It's fine! You are a good girl!"
Coy knew that courtesy demanded reciprocity. After he ate the melon that Mona had given him, he grabbed two blueberries and gave them to her.
Meanwhile, Ethan was throwing away garbage. When he turned around, he saw Coy grabbing the blueberries.
Once again, Ethan was shocked. It was true. He had no idea how to look after children. Those two kids acted so quickly that he didn't even have the time to stop them.
"Here you go, Mona! Eat them," said Coy.
Since she had just been reminded by Ethan, Mona glanced at the blueberries and shook her head in refusal. "No, thanks."
Coy took a step forward and said, "Mona, eat them."
The little girl pushed his hand away. "No! I won't eat anything unclean."
The boy offered the berries to Mona several times, but each time, she refused him. And because of that, he felt agitated. "You must eat."
Meanwhile, Ethan was snickering by himself. He wanted to take the blueberries from Coy's hand. "Coy, perhaps you should feed Mona using a fork."
However, he didn't expect that the boy would be so stubborn. Coy still insisted on making Mona eat the blueberries from his hand.
At this point, Mona was getting angry. She didn't want to eat them, but he insisted. She swatted his hand away, causing the blueberries to fall from his hand.
