She almost forgot to breathe when her mind went blank. And she could not move as if being enchanted. When the passionate kiss fell on her lips, she instantly felt an electric current go through her limbs. Rupert was always overbearing, but his kiss was gentle. Ariella had lived for more than twenty years, but no man had ever treated her so tenderly before. So, she forgot to react and breathe. It was as unreal as a dream! She did not push him away until she was about to suffocate. And she shed tears for no reason when she wiped her mouth. Seeing this, Rupert felt depressed, thinking she disliked him. After losing her first kiss, Ariella pitied herself. She suppressed her sadness and said, “Mr. Jackbone, don’t do this anymore! I don’t want to be your toy! I’m different from you! I can’t afford to play such a game!” “I was kidding, Fatty!” He wanted to explain that he had joked that he wanted her to be his toy. But what she feared most was his joke! She couldn’t tell whether he was still joking, so she roared, “Stop calling me Fatty! I hate it!” Then, she ran away crying regardless. “Ariella!” Seeing her run away, Rupert wanted to ask her to stop but swallowed the words on his tongue and irritably scratched his head. There was a reason why he was attracted to a fat woman. It had something to do with his childhood experience. When he was a child, he had been feeble and sick. So, his mother had taken him to the countryside to recuperate. When the healthy kids bullied him because of his sickness, a fat girl protected him. She used to be his only friend and bring him happiness and a sense of security.

Ariella had given him the sense of security he missed, so he had nicknamed her Fatty, couldn’t help kissing her, and even wanted to imprison her in his sphere. She could only blame herself for being fat. * When Adam and Fredric helped Remington back to his bedroom in the Aroma Villa, Cecelia followed them in and said, “I’ll take care of him. You go to rest!” After Adam, Fredric, and others left, Cecelia came to the bed and looked at the unconscious drunk man. After a moment, she took off clothes and fetched water to clean him. Suddenly, Remington opened his eyes in a daze, thinking he was dreaming. “Cece, don’t go with him.” He stretched out to hug her and continued, “You are mine.” After he closed his eyes, he mumbled, “Jersey, you came again! I will beat you.” Leaning on his solid chest, Cecelia helplessly laughed. He was drunk but unwilling to let Jersey go, even in his dream. Fortunately, he didn’t vomit and slept peacefully. Cecelia had stayed by his side to look after him for an entire night. When Remington woke up in the morning, he still had a headache. After sitting up and looking down, he found he was almost naked. He was so shocked that he fully sobered up. Looking around, he realized it was his bedroom. Then, he secretly breathed a sigh of relief. He remembered after he had gotten drunk at the Grande Club last night, Sam had sent him upstairs to rest. But he couldn’t recall what had happened next or how he had returned home. But at the thought of Jersey and what had happened on the plane, he felt sullen. Hearing Cecelia’s footsteps outside, he hurriedly lay down, closed his eyes, and pretended to sleep. Cecelia had made breakfast. When the four kids and Adam had the meal downstairs, she came up to change clothes and see if Remington was awake. Seeing him still asleep in the bedroom, she didn’t wake him. She turned around, opened the closet, and started to change clothes.

Remington quietly opened his eyes to watch the seductive scene. The slim-fitting dress outlined her perfect figure. And her graceful back could drive him crazy. He could not help feeling sexy when she gave him such a benefit early in the morning. When Cecelia turned around, she caught him peeking. So, she raised her eyebrows and asked, “Are you awake?” “No!” Then, Remington turned his back to her in anger. “How can you talk if you’re not awake?” Cecelia walked over and sat beside him. They were face to face, so he could no longer pretend to be asleep. She rubbed his head and coaxed him, saying, “Come on. Don’t be angry! OK?” Remington snorted and seriously said, “Do you know why I’m angry?” She carefully explained, “I know you are angry with me because of Jersey. So, I must explain it to you. I did it on humanitarian grounds. I sympathize with him because he suffered a lot. I’m grateful to him because he risked his life to save me in Dark Moon. I want to return his favor. There is nothing else between us. Please believe me!” Remington naturally believed her. But it was precisely because she was grateful that he was worried. He feared Jersey would take advantage of her gratitude to steal her away. “I believe you! But he saved your life. What will you do if he asks you to marry him in return?” Remington believed Cecelia but couldn’t believe Jersey. Cecelia held his hand and smiled, “There is only one man I will marry. I will agree even if he asks for all my money. But I will never marry him!” “That man is me.” Remington’s mood suddenly became much better. “Of course! Is there another Remington in this world?” Both men and women liked to hear sweet words. Cecelia had said what he wanted to listen to the most, so his anger instantly subsided.

After affectionately looking at her for ten seconds, Remington sat up and held her in his arms. He had drunk a lot and gotten angry about such a man last night. Thinking about it now, he realized it was not worth it. If he had known it earlier, he should have taken a shower and waited for her at home. After Cecelia coaxed Remington, he wanted to spend a pleasant morning with her. When he was about to kiss her, the door suddenly opened. “Daddy and Mommy!” It was the kids’ voices! Hearing their voices and footsteps, Cecelia was so shocked that she kicked Remington away. “Ouch!” When Remington fell onto the bed with a frown, Doris walked to the bed. Hearing him groan in pain, she curiously asked, “Mommy, what’s wrong with Daddy?” Cecelia awkwardly smiled, “He is fine. I am taking care of him!” Regan walked in, took Doris’s hand, and said like a little adult, “Come on, Doris. Let’s go out to play. Mommy and Daddy are making a baby!” “Good! Mommy and Daddy, I want a brother and a sister right away!” After Doris finished speaking, she happily ran out hand in hand with Regan and thoughtfully closed the door. “Did you hear that? Doris wants a brother and a sister! We should satisfy her!” Cecelia helplessly laughed, pushed his hand away, and said, “You stink. I’ll prepare the bath for you.” Hearing the water run in the bathroom, Remington walked in and looked at the woman beside the bathtub. Seeing her gently stir the water with her fair-skinned hand, he couldn’t help feeling sexy.
