Chapter 403: The CEO’s Little Sufferer
The man’s tongue was so deft that, catching Cecilia Vaughn off guard, it eagerly explored the girl’s mouth.
Entwining, dancing.
Cecilia was shocked by Adrian Law’s straightforward words, her heart pounding erratically, feeling both parched and feverish, even the spot where Adrian had touched her shoulder blade seemed to ignite.
"Adrian... stop..."
Adrian gently acknowledged with a seductive hum, yet offered no further response, instead conveying his resolve through a powerful kiss.
He swiftly breached her defenses, slipped past her teeth, sweeping across everything within her mouth.
The kiss was so deep, so fervent, it seemed like Adrian was about to consume her whole.
Cecilia couldn’t explain why she felt both afraid and expectant; though no longer a naive girl, when Adrian wrapped his arms around her entirely, her beautiful almond-shaped eyes seemed to shimmer with unshed tears.
Her mouth was filled with the fresh and pleasant scent of bamboo from Adrian, making it hard to breathe, so all she could do was dance along.
Adrian watched Cecilia blush with an amused gaze, his hand lightly grazing her waist.
"Mrs. Law, still scared?"
Cecilia heard the man’s suggestive tone and didn’t know where to place her hands.
Can you blame her for being scared?
Adrian seemed like two different people; beneath his refined and aloof exterior hid a possessiveness more terrifying than a beast’s. Each time something like this happened, Cecilia felt it truly took two days to recover.
"It’s all your fault... for not knowing restraint..."
Cecilia murmured.
"Cecilia, look at me and you won’t be afraid, I promise, just once."
Adrian’s lips lightly brushed Cecilia’s ear, his gaze burning as if it could set the girl before him ablaze.
Cecilia hummed lightly, naturally not believing him, since this man’s "just once" often meant the entire half-night without rest.
"I don’t believe you."
Cecilia tried to push Adrian away with her hands, but the man’s dark eyes were too dangerous.
"Cecilia... you don’t want to see your husband suffer, do you? Otherwise, who will bring you happiness in the future?"
Adrian’s handsome face nuzzled against Cecilia’s fair neck, making her feel tickled and her body went soft involuntarily.
She was helpless.
"Then... just once..."
As soon as Cecilia finished speaking, Adrian swept her up like a storm.
The night was long.
...
By the next morning, Cecilia truly regretted her decision!
If she ever believed that big bad wolf Adrian Law’s nonsense again, she’d fail herself!
Biting her lip, Cecilia glanced at Adrian sleeping beside her, his features gentle and no longer as devilishly domineering as last night, instead he looked quiet, like an innocent big boy.
The moon in the sea is the moon in the sky, the person before my eyes is the one in my heart.
Cecilia initially fumed with anger, but seeing Adrian’s flawlessly handsome face, she suddenly felt electrified.
— Ahhh, Cecilia Vaughn, you’re hopeless, falling for looks will be your downfall!
Teasing herself for her lack of resolve, Cecilia couldn’t help reaching out, softly tracing Adrian’s straight nose, thin lips, and perfectly curved jawline.
It was really strange, perhaps because Adrian’s eyes were closed, he seemed much younger, with a similar purity and innocence to that of a high schooler between his closed lashes.
...
Cecilia bit her lip, wondering if she should draw a big turtle on this rascal’s face.
However, faced with such a perfect visage, Cecilia just couldn’t bring herself to do it.
Conflicted, she could only playfully tease Adrian’s eyelashes.
— How curious, why, as a grown man, did his eyelashes seem longer than hers, leaving no room for girls to live!
One, two, three...
Her sleepiness gone, Cecilia lay half propped on the man’s shoulder, counting how many eyelashes Adrian had.
Yet before she could finish counting, a slender hand suddenly emerged from the covers, pulling the girl close by the waist!
"Cecilia, if you have this much energy, why don’t we continue doing something fun?"
Adrian chuckled, rolling over to trap Cecilia in his embrace.
Perhaps due to the early morning, Cecilia immediately felt the man’s teasing was no mere jest, the intense warmth holding her by the waist was highly threatening.
Cecilia’s cheeks turned red, she felt aching all over, especially her waist, which was sore.
Not wanting to recall the scorching memories of last night, Cecilia lightly punched the man’s arm.
"Shameless! I really doubt if you keep this up, your brain won’t have room for anything else, just full of useless junk."
"Cecilia, how could that be, my mind is full of you."
His world was not vast, it was even small, small enough to only accommodate one person, and that was Cecilia.
...
Cecilia extended her porcelain-white hand, helplessly pressing her forehead.
"Mr. Law, I concede, okay? I’m hungry, I want breakfast."
As if to confirm Cecilia’s words, her stomach growled right on cue.
Gurgle—
The sentimental atmosphere immediately shattered. Adrian helplessly poked Cecilia’s nose.
"Alright, little glutton, I’ll make breakfast for you. You were too exhausted yesterday, sleep a bit more, I’ll call you to wash up once breakfast is ready."
"Alright, Adrian, you’re the best~"
Moved by Adrian’s considerate proposal, Cecilia obediently snuggled back under the covers.
Suddenly, something didn’t feel right.
Wait, wasn’t she so exhausted last night all because of this bastard?
What on earth is she touched for!
...
After finishing breakfast, just as Cecilia was sipping her milk, she received a call from her friend Mona Summers.
The little girl’s excited voice rang out, loud enough to vibrate the room without speaker mode.
"Cecilia! I heard your big boss spent a hundred million US Dollars last night to win the Love God Crown for you? My god, that’s so swoon-worthy! Now every girl in Veridia envies you!"
"No, even the guys do! Who wouldn’t bend for a hundred million US Dollars."
Cecilia glanced at the playful eyes of the man across the dining table, looking quite exasperated, determined not to fuel the big bad wolf’s ego.
"Ahem... that was charity money, for building schools, not really spent on me."
On the other end of the line, hearing Cecilia’s humility, a mischievous laugh arose.
"Oh come on, Cecilia, why does your voice sound so weak, could it be... you got squeezed like a wilted cabbage by your big boss last night?"
"Pfft—"
Cecilia’s face quickly turned red, and the milk in her mouth sprayed out!
Mona, always outspoken and bold, was usually fine, but not in front of Adrian Law! How could she!!!
