Love's Cunning Ruse novel Chapter 232

"Reenact the scene?"

This might be the most terrifying words Julie had ever heard.

She abruptly opened her eyes, craning her neck to stare at Kieran in the dark, asking, "How do you reenact?"

"First, think back to when you started losing memory last night," he answered.

Julie remembered the process of going home. She knew it was Hayden and Julien who accompanied her home. She returned to her room and then Kieran came over.

Kieran stripped, then walked into the bathroom. She seemed drunk, so she followed him into the bathroom, and then...

"I remember, you barged in while I was bathing. I was knocked down by you into the bathtub."

"Nope, you sank yourself in the tub. I tried to hold you up, but I was dragged into the tub with you," Julie rushed to clarify.

Kieran nodded, "Oh? So you remember this part."

Was she fooled by him again?

"Then... I kissed you," Kieran's memory of this part was crystal clear.

Julie kept quiet. Suddenly, the lights in the room turned on. Before her eyes could adjust, Kieran had picked her up.

"What are you doing?" Julie, startled, quickly clung onto Kieran's neck, only to find him firmly carrying her towards the bathroom.

He asked her, "Was I down below last night?"

"What?"

Before Julie could answer, Kieran had put her down and sat in the tub himself. He patted his lap, looking at her, "Please."

"What?"

"Sit on me."

Julie chuckled, turning to leave. She didn't intend to spend midnight with him in the bathtub. Her wounds from last night weren't healed yet!

Just as she took a step, Kieran caught her wrist. She practically fell onto him.

Kieran's lips instantly met hers. His kiss was like a storm, seizing her. His large palm gently pressed against her waist. His hot kiss seemed to suck all the air from her lungs, making her head spin.

Images of their intimacy last night flashed through her mind. Julie immediately sobered up, reaching out to turn on the faucet. Cold water gushed into the bathtub.

Kieran snapped out of the intense entanglement. Looking at his wife, he seemed both confused and innocent.

Julie licked her lips, unabashedly saying, "Didn't you want a reenactment? It was like this last night. I accidentally hit the faucet, then you bathed here, and I changed into my sleepwear."

After that, she took advantage of Kieran's distraction to quickly climb off him.

Julie, who was originally planning to escape, had just taken a step when Kieran caught her wrist, "Didn't you say you were going to give me a surprise last night?"

He was drunk, wasn't he? How could he remember such details?

Julie kept quiet, lowering her head as he asked, "Did you really give me a surprise?"

"Let go of me first, let me think," Julie said.

He knew Julie had become more cunning, so naturally, he wouldn't let go of her.

He filled the bathtub with warm water, warming both their bodies a lot. He deliberately looked at the marks on Julie's neck, asking, "So nothing really happened last night?"

Julie looked at him, not knowing what to say.

He continued to prompt her, "Or maybe, we had a little bit of intimacy?"

Not just a little bit!

He thought again. If something did happen, he wouldn't be satisfied with brief intimacy. So, Kieran smirked, asking her, "Was it intense sex?"

Haha! Julie gritted her teeth, cursing him silently.

"I did have a surprise for you last night. I'll reenact it now. After you finish bathing, wait for me on the balcony," Julie said, then broke free from his grip and ran out.
