Sharon was scared and stunned by the seriousness in his eyes.
Stanley glanced at her, bowed his head, and kissed her on the lips.
Hiss...
He bit her. Sharon came to her senses due to the pain, her face grimacing. After hesitating for a moment, she slowly raised her arms and wrapped them around his neck.
After a while, she slowly said, "Uh, sorry..."
She was at fault for petty- mindedly speculating on him, so she should apologize to him. She knew it clearly.
Stanley snorted. "Why do you apologize?"
Sharon curled her lips and said, "I shouldn't have said that to you."
"And!"
"And I should respect the dead."
"Yes, and..."
"And... and I should understand the comradeship between you men."
"Go on."
Sharon was anoyed. "What else to go on? Why don't you just give me a clear explanation of what other big sins I have!"
Stanley chuckled, grabbed her hand, and took a bite. "Silly girl."
Sharon grimaced in pain again. He bit her again! Was he a dog?
B*stard!
Sharon wanted to pull back her hand to no avail. He pinched her soft hands with his slender fingers like playing with a toy.
Sharon let him be. After thinking for a while, she asked, "In that case, the relationship between you and Jewel is not what I think, is it?"
Stanley's breath was languid. "What kind of relationship do you think we have?"
"Lovers."
"You're mistaken."
Sharon's heart beat faster. "Then what kind of relationship do you have?"
"I will just take care of her for the rest of my life on behalf of her brother."
When Sharon was about to speak, Stanley pinched her chin. "Also, come to me directly if you have anything to tell me. Don't make your own silly little speculations by yourself. Do you hear me?"
For example, she shouldn't have made her own mind in accepting Jewel's check.
Sharon nodded. "Okay..."
As Stanley lowered his head and kissed her again, Sharon gradually turned on.
In the end, Stanley asked her, "Is it your fertile window now?"
Sharon counted the days and nodded. "Yes."
Stanley stopped.
Sharon was a little surprised. "How have you become so considerate?"
Stanley narrowed his eyes and said unpleasantly, "Why? Was I not before?"
"Nope."
Stanley frowned and asked, "Did you take the pills every time?"
"Yes."
"It's not good for you!" He frowned and said, "Don't take it anymore."
Sharon chuckled and said, "Okay, if you keep being so considerate in the future, I won't have to take it."
Stanley's eyes deepened as he lowered his head and kissed her.
After the lovemaking session, Stanley returned to the bed with Sharon who was sleeping in his arms. As soon as he lay her on the bed, she hugged the quilt and fell deeply asleep whereas Stanley was wide awake.
Leaning against the bedside table, he lit a cigarette and looked at her. She looked very quiet and serene when she fell asleep, melting his heart.
He looked away and took a deep drag on the cigarette. The smoke entered his lungs. He had no choice but to think about it.
All kinds of signs showed that he was really interested in her and had a possessive desire.
When a man had a possessive desire for a woman, he was either in love or he liked her.
He didn't love her; he just liked her.
He had never fallen in love with women for so many years. She was the first.
This sudden emotion took over his heart swiftly.
He was so engrossed in his thoughts that he didn't hear the phone vibrating by his pillow.
"Hey, your phone is ringing."
It was Sharon who reminded him.
Stanley tilted his head and looked at her with deep eyes. "Faking sleep?"
Sharon rolled her eyes and yawned casually. "I was really sleeping. It's just that I was woken up by your phone."
As she spoke, she glanced at the caller's ID on his phone.
It was from Jewel.
Sharon was taken aback for a moment, and then she said with a smile, "Your VIP calls you. Hurry and pick it up. I have to get up early tomorrow. I need to sleep now. Good night..."
With that, she turned over again and continued to sleep.
Stanley frowned. This heartless woman!
They all said that he was ruthless. In fact, he thought she was even more heartless than him!
Annoyed, he answered the phone irritably, "Hello, what's the matter?"
Jewel's shaky voice resonated through on the phone. "Stanley, s- someone is sneaking outside my door. I'm so scared... Come over quick!"
Stanley sat up straight. "Not your fan?"
"No! I looked out from the peephole. It's a man wearing a cap. I can't see his face. He is wandering in front of my door and even pressed the doorbell. I'm scared..."
Stanley calmly said, "Don't go out. Don't open the door, and lock all the doors and windows. I'll go there as soon as possible."
Only then did Jewel feel at ease.
After ending the call, Stanley got out of bed and was about to leave after taking his coat when he turned around inadvertently and saw Sharon sitting up on the bed and stared at him with a pair of almond eyes.
