The Enticing CEO's Chosen Bride novel Chapter 1850

Nathan gritted his teeth, "Then just answer my question quickly."

Yulia chuckled, laying back on the bed, her head tilted as she gazed at Nathan. "What answer do you want to hear?"

Nathan's eyes narrowed, his grip on her leg tightened as he slightly pulled it aside, the pose a tad embarrassing.

"Well? You sure you don't want to talk?"

After a moment's hesitation, she shifted her body slightly upward and then smiled, saying, "If I say I don't, what are you going to do about it?"

Nathan leaned in closer, "What do you think?"d2

Feeling his outline and his intense breath, Yulia's breathing hitched, "I miss you."

But she didn't mean it.

Nathan's brow twitched, thinking he must be crazy to suddenly ask her this kind of question, only to make things awkward for himself. Regardless, he had a more pressing matter to attend to.

His hand moved in another direction, his voice laced with mischief, "Then I need to check just how much you're missing me."

Yulia tensed suddenly as she felt something, but then gradually sank into the rhythm of Nathan’s thrusts, completely carried along by his lead. Worried that Anya might really come up, Yulia was restless. She wanted to end their tryst quickly. Nathan pulled her back down to the bed.

"Stop. Anya will really come looking. Ah..."

Yulia tried to resist, but Nathan prevailed once again. Holding her waist tightly, he didn't pause, "Stay still, didn't you say you missed me? I haven't felt just how much yet."

Yulia clenched her teeth, her voice a chaotic whisper, "I should've never said I missed you."

"Heh," Nathan chuckled, "Then you might end up a hundred times more exhausted than now."

The sudden increase in intensity made Yulia bite down hard on her lip, a frown creasing her brow, her hands clutching him tightly. "Be gentle..."

--

Stepping out of the washroom, Yulia's expression had returned to normal, as if the messy romance that just unfolded in the room was nothing more than a dream.

Nathan, already presentable, watched Yulia emerge and his brow furrowed slightly. Suddenly, he said, "Damon and Chloe are both smart."

Yulia turned her head, looking at him with confusion.

Nathan pursed his lips, "Chloe knows that even if those women are brought home, Damon wouldn't entertain any other thoughts."

Yulia was speechless for a while before conceding, "Yes, she's smart, and Damon isn't that kind of man."

"But Chloe still seemed pretty upset. She knows the truth, so why get angry?"

Nathan's question made Yulia frown, but she remained silent. Why indeed? Maybe she just wanted to take the opportunity to show how much she cared for Damon.

Caring was the only reason for such a big reaction.

True or false, it didn't matter. Wasn't that what life was about?

Everyone had lied in life. As long as the end result was ideal, and the present moment was happy, that was enough.

Nathan was right. There was no need for her to fret over things she had no right to worry about. Being happy was what mattered.

"I don't know, maybe it's just because she cares too much about Damon. They say a woman in love becomes dumb. Perhaps, even if she's smart, she can be swayed by appearances." She said, brushing her hair back with her hand, turning to leave.

"So what are your thoughts?"

Nathan's voice rose again, causing Yulia to pause. She turned to look at him, "What could I possibly think about their situation?"

After a second's pause, she added, "My thought is that they really have a great relationship."

"And you? No other thoughts about what Chloe said last?"

"What did she say again?" Yulia pondered, "That you should be careful and not take Anya to those places?"

She smiled, "I wasn't going to say anything since you were already scolded by Chloe, but since you brought it up, I'll add that, even though I know you wouldn't do anything with Anya there, she still shouldn't be in such a place. She's young, innocent, and those aren't the sorts of things she should be exposed to."

Nathan's face chilled a bit, "Is that all?"

Yulia blinked, "What else?"

"What if I hadn't taken Anya? If I had gone to that place alone?"

Yulia stopped in her tracks, the smile freezing on her face. Nathan's eyes bore into her as he leaned against the window frame. "What if I went alone? What then?"

After a moment of silence, Yulia said, "I assume you had a very important reason."

Nathan's gaze intensified, and he let out a cold laugh, "You really are understanding."

Yulia just smiled and didn't reply.

Nathan's expression didn't improve as a knock came at the door, and Anya's voice filtered through. "Yulipop, Nathan. It's lunchtime, open up."

Yulia walked to the door and opened it.

Anya entered, grasping Yulia's hand, her big eyes scanning the room before settling on Nathan.

"Nathan, time to eat."

Yulia lifted Anya, "Alright, he heard you. Let's go call Damon and Chloe for lunch."

"Okay, then Nathan, you go downstairs and wait for me. I'll come down to you soon." Anya said.
