Chapter 24 Kiss Him
Nathan’s expression darkened suddenly, his voice unusually hoarse, “Rebecca, get up,”
Rebecca, thoroughly intoxicated, had no awareness of her surroundings, her mind foggy. She mistook him for Emma, mumbling. “Stop it, I want to rest a bit.. the pillow feels so comfy.
As she spoke, she tried to shift away in annoyance.
Nathan clenched his teeth, annoyed by her discomfort while lying on top of him.
“Rebecca. I’m telling you again, get off me.”
His voice was low and restrained, dangerous and commanding
Rebecca, annoyed by the noise, turned around, her arms soft as water wrapping around his waist, “Hmm, baby, you’re so naughty today behave, let me hold you, let’s sleep together.”
Baby? This woman, she is treating me like one of her flings!
Nathan’s already cool demeanor turned icy, distinctly displeased.
Just as he was about to get angry, Rebecca suddenly kissed him, as if to soothe a child.
Her lips were soft. In an instant, Nathan’s much–prided rationality shattered. He tightened his grip on her waist, pulled her up forcibly into his arms, and warned, I don’t care if you’re really drunk or pretending, if you don’t behave, don’t blame me for being rude.”
His breath was cold, more dangerous than a wild wolf.
Rebecca’s waist hurt from his grip, a shiver running through her. She opened her eyes slightly and saw his cold, imposing face. “Huh? Why is it you? Remember your place, don’t touch me. I want to sleep…
After saying this, she tilted her head onto his shoulder and fell deeply asleep.
Nathan was speechless. Damn it, who was touching whom?
He really felt like throwing her out of the car to leave her exposed in the wilderness. Yet, she lay there in his arms, like a docile and sweet kitten, sleeping so soundly that he couldn’t bring himself to do it.
What was most important was that she was now sitting on top of him, too close for comfort.
The air grew hot.
Nathan loosened his tie, gazing at Rebecca’s delicately flushed face, his deep blue eyes swirling with unusual emotions and impulses
Every time he came into contact with her, uncontrollable thoughts emerged.
These were not emotions he was supposed to have. The car stopped at the villa.
Nathan was the first to get out, carrying Rebecca upstairs and laying her on the bed, then he returned to his own room.
Marcus, seeing him rush to find clothes and head into the bathroom, furrowed his brow, “Daddy, what’s wrong?”
Nathan, standing under the cold shower washing his sturdy body, heard the question and cleared his throat, casually saying. “Nothing, just got dirty, taking a shower.”
“Oh, I want to shower with you.” Since Rebecca’s arrival, Marcus had been talking more and becoming clingier.

Chapter 24 Kiss Him
“Okay, Marcus didn’t insist, puzzled as to why tonight was off–limits but tomorrow wasn’t.
The next morning.
Rebecca woke up with a splitting headache, feeling as though her head weighed a ton.
Had I been possessed?
“Rebecca, you were drunk last night, and daddy carried you back. Marcus’s childlike voice chimed
Finished
Rebecca jolted upright, her eyes meeting Marcus’s as he sat on the edge of her bed. Flashbacks of last night flooded her mind. and her face exploded in embarrassment!
She had been drunk, mistaking Nathan for Emma, hugging and kissing him–and the pillow she found so comfortable was actually him…
Ok, the horror!
She wished she could slap herself several times for drinking at all.
She asked weakly, “Where’s your daddy?”
Marcus replied. “He went to work.”
That was good, too good… Oherwise, she’d be too embarrassed to face him..
Rebecca breathed a sigh of relief, “What would you like to eat today? Rebecca will take you out.”
Marcus didn’t respond but tugged at her to go downstairs to the dining room.
Then, Rebecca noticed a bowl of porridge on the table, along with a small dish of vegetables, perfect for a hangover. Surprised, she asked, “Did your dad get a chef?”
“No. I made it especially for you. Daddy has never even eaten my cooking.”
lihat! He made it? He’s only three years old!
Rebecca couldn’t believe it, yet Marcus nonchalantly said, “What’s so hard about cooking? Only Dad can’t cook. Don’t tell him, though: I don’t want to hurt his pride”
Rebecca chuckled, finding her son adorably considerate for thinking of Nathan that way.
If Nathan knew the truth, he’d be even more impacted Feeling touched, she finished breakfast and decided to take Marcus to the large supermarket outside the community as a treat.
Unexpectedly, while other children might clamor to buy snacks and toys, Marcus refrained from picking anything, showing a level of self–discipline unlike other kids.
Rebecca didn’t want him to be so mature and restrained, so she led him to the chips aisle, “Pick a flavor you like, they’re really tasty.” Emma conld eat two big bags in one go
Marcus shook his head. “Kid’s snacks, they look awful. I don’t eat that.”
Rebecca replied, “You are a kid too, go on, trust me, it’s good. If you don’t pick. I’ll tell your dad how good you are at cooking, and that it’s really delicious.”
Marcus was speechless. Am I being blackmailed?
Reluctantly and helplessly, he grabbed two bags of chips and put them in the cart.

Rebecca sofily comforted him, “Sweetie, it’s sanitized daily, very clean. Just go in, be a good boy.”
She paid without giving him a chance to refuse, her tone threatening, “Be good, or I’ll tell Nathan that you can cook.
Marcus felt like crying, he shouldn’t have let that sli
What a tough break for a little kid.
slip.
In fact, once Marcus went inside, he quickly found joy in playing with other children.
Delightful!
So, Rebecca spent the whole day with Marcus in the mall.
Finished
It wasn’t until the evening that they returned home. She looked after Marcus as he bathed, “You’ve played all day, must be tired, soak in the bath to relax. I’ll get your pajamas.”
“Okay, Marcus nodded.
Rebecca stepped out, opened the wardrobe, and grabbed the pajamas. When she reached for the underwear, she inadvertently noticed Nathan’s black boxer briefs next to it, her face flushing red.
She had touched him in her drunken stupor…
What am I thinking?
Rebecca quickly grabbed Marcus’s tiny underwear, stood up to head back to the bathroom.
Just then, she turned around and saw Nathan walking into the bedroom. He is back!
