"Hey!" Mary red at William. "When did you be so shameless?"

"I don''t know either." He chuckled while his smile remained glued to his lips. Grabbing the quilt, he
gently covered them both with it while his body moved close to Mary''s. "I think it''s better if we sleep
together!"
As he spoke, he stretched out his hands, intending to touch her tummy.
"What are you doing?" Slightly surprised, Mary shook off his hands and said, "It''s time to sleep
now."
"Come on, I just want to feel our baby." William frowned and pouted like a kid who had just been
deprived of candy. "I can''t even touch you now, can I?" he added with an evident hint of grievance.
"Well, you deserve it! I told you you''d be doomed one day when I found that you made a mistake."
Raising her chin slightly, Mary gazed at him with apparent provocation.
Yet, even with her sharp eyes, William didn''t seem provoked. Instead, he stared back at her
comcently, feeling a tinge of warmth in his heart. "Hmmm...Why don''t I remember?" he
responded, still wearing a smile.
"It doesn''t matter. I remember it very clearly. I will take back all the grievances I have suffered
before!" Mary slightly moved on the bed, now facing him with a cocky expression etched on her
face.
"What grievances did you suffer before?"
"There''s a lot of them!" Mary waved her palm before his face and counted with her fingers. "After I
signed the contract with you, I was not allowed to touch your things, enter the study, and watch TV
to disturb your work."
"I didn''t expect you to remember everything between us so clearly." A hint of pleasure and surprise
shed on William''s face. All along, he thought that Mary didn''t care about the little things between
them, but learning that she cared, after all, William couldn''t help but smug.
"Don''t tter yourself!" Mary turned her head away, evidently shy of her revtion.
"Mary..." With his massive hands, William turned her back to face him, cupping her small face while
looking straight into her eyes so passionately.
The moment their eyes locked, Mary couldn''t understand why he was staring at her with so much
affection. The intensity in his gazes made her so dizzy that she almost lost control.
"Do you know how happy I am when I am with you?" With a ghost of a smile, William sensually
uttered, "Mary, I will be yours from now on."
Then slowly, he leaned over and gently kissed her lips.
As their lips brushed against each other''s, a volt of electrifying shock surged in her body. And
amidst thisplicated feeling, she was still utterly confused. What did he just say? Who belonged
to her?
"Wait, wait!" Mary pushed him away right away, her chest heaving slightly. "What did you just say?"
"I said I''m yours from now on." William blinked and shed her a naughty grin.
"You..." Mary pointed at him with her eyes wide open. "Are you spineless? I didn''t say I want you to
be mine!"
"I don''t care." William grazed her belly with his massive hand. "You didn''t say anything just now,
which means you acquiesced in it."
"You..." Realizing that she was being yed, Mary almost went into a rampage. But before she
could evensh out at him, she suddenly remembered another thing and screamed, "You, you just
kissed me!"
"Yes, I did. In fact, I haven''t kissed you enough yet." William nodded, taking her surprise for granted
as he prepared to lean over for another kiss. "William! Can you respect me even just a little bit? I
thought we''ve made an agreement! If you go on like this, I''m really gonna get mad!"
"Mary, you made those three terms just to punish me. I know you are angry about my past. " William
sighed before continuing in a low tone, "I sincerely repent. I’ve told you, I regret doing it.
"Then why don''t you listen to me?" Veering away from his intense gaze, Mary lowered her head and
rubbed her belly.
"I always listen to you! Come on, Mary! Please remove the ''no kiss'' term! I have never kissed any
other woman."
"Hmm?" Mary raised her head again and eyed him doubtfully. "I don''t believe you."
"But it’s true! How do I make you believe me? Tell me! In thest four years you were gone, I slept
with other women just to vent my sexual desire. I have never kissed them nor taken them home. If
you want, you can ask Virgil. He knows everything about me."
"Humph, why didn''t you kiss them?" Mary asked, sniffing.
"I only kiss the woman I love, and it''s you. When will you ever believe me?" William''s facial
expression showed how disappointed he was. "I think intimate moments between a man and his
beloved woman can improve their rtionship. Don''t you think so?" he added, still hoping Mary
would let him kiss her.
"So, what are you saying?" However, cold as Mary was, she tried to ignore his plea by ying
clueless.
"I want to be intimate with you!" William retorted, getting closer to her shamelessly. "I haven''t seen
you in two months, and I miss you so much! Don''t you miss me at all?"
"I..." Mary stammered and struggled to find the right words to say. How could she not miss him?
She cried almost every day that he was in aa, thinking that she would never see him ever
again.
"Mary..." William called her in a hoarse voice. Then, with so much affection, he gently brushed his
fingers on her face, tracing her nose down to her lips. "I really haven''t kissed anyone else. I just
want to kiss you."
"Have you really never kissed anyone else?" Mary showed her doubt again. Only this time, she was
certain she would lose her control any moment now.
"No, I haven''t! I''ll call Virgil toe over tomorrow and prove it to you." Noticing that there was a
change in Mary''s tone, William slowly leaned over and whispered in her ear, "I promise that from
now on, we will be happy."
After Mary heard those words, the worry and panic that she had experienced in the past two months
slowly dissipated in her heart. William was right in front of her, very much alive. Wasn''t this what she
wanted?
"I love you, Mary. There’s nothing that could separate us from now on." Slowly, William craned his
neck and moved closer, nting a soft yet passionate kiss on her lips.
"Then don''t leave me alone in the future." Subconsciously, Mary circled her arms around his waist.
"Don''t ever frighten me again like that. I really thought I was gonna lose you."
"No, I will never." William enveloped her in a tight embrace.
At that moment, he finally realized how it felt to hold his entire world--Mary--in his arms.
Meanwhile, Barry barged inside his house with furrowed brows and nose ring in so much anger.
He had juste back from thepany.
After he visited Mary in the hospital today, he went back to thepany where his assistant
informed him that Sh hade back from the filming set and gone directly to the hospital.
Unfortunately, the two of them just missed each other on the way.
And for no reason, Barry was utterly mad at the thought of this.
"Mom, what are you cooking?" Ray''s joyful voice resounded from the kitchen. "It smells so good!"
"Tomato and beef tenderloin soup," answered Sh with a smile.
Barry pushed the door open with a click and walked in, deliberately making a recognizable noise as
he changed into his house slippers. True enough, both Ray and Sh turned to look toward the
massive door as soon as they heard him.
"Dad, you''re back!" The young boy ran over happily and threw himself directly at his father.
"My good son!" Barry bent down and picked Ray up at once. "Did you behave well at school today?"
"Of course! The teacher taught us how to write today," proudly answered the kid, shing a wide
smile.
"That''s awesome!" Although Barry was talking to his son, half of his attention was already at Sh.
Standing in the kitchen and watching the father and son''s interaction from a distance, Sh felt a
tinge of warmth in her heart. During the half month that she had been away for shooting, Ray
seemed to have developed a closer rtionship with his father. Perhaps leaving them alone
together had helped in a way.
"Dad, put me down!" Ray struggled in Barry''s arms and said, "The teacher praised my painting
today. I''ll go to get it and show it to you!"
"Okay." Nodding, Barry settled his son on the ground and lightly patted his head before watching
him run away.
As Ray hurried upstairs, a deafening silence fell in the living room. It was the usual scene whenever
the young boy would leave them alone. It seemed that their son was the only reason they could stay
together in one room without being awkward with each other.
"Hey... You are back." Sh was the first one to break the silence. She pursed her lips and took a
look at Barry.
"Yeah, I''m back. I''m standing right here in front of you." A trace of sarcasm dripped in his voice. And
with his indifferent eyes piercing her, Barry removed eachyer of his clothes, only leaving a shirt.
Then, he walked towards Sh and asked, "Are you making dinner?"
"Yes, I am. It will be ready soon." Even though Sh shared a child with him, she would still get
flustered whenever her eyes met his intense gaze. There was just something about him that would
immediately send the butterflies fluttering in her stomach.
"Okay," Barry coldly replied, nodding slightly.
Then, the next second, another batch of awkward silence filled the space between them, making
Barry even more annoyed. They hadn''t seen each other for half a month, and yet this woman
wouldn’t talk or even look at him for a long time. She just lowered her head and stared at her feet.
