Chapter 1572
Kissing, hugging, and so much more than that...
After nearly two hours, Hendrix finally let go of me with satisfaction.
As soon as Iid down to rest, I heard the sound of showeringing from the bathroom. It was
Hendrix, who''d gone to take a shower. Thinking that he would be busy working tomorrow, I stacked
my pillows a little higher and waited for him to finish showering so we could go to bed together.
Before long, Hendrix came out in a bathrobe, but he went straight into the cloakroom instead. When
he came out, he was already dressed in a suit.
"Are you going back to the office?" Amos had made an appointment with Hendrix at nine o''clock in
the morning. If he went back to work at this hour, he probably wouldn''t be back early. I was really
worried that he would not have enough sleep, having to spend time going back and forth between
our house and hispany.
Hendrix walked to the bed and bent down to kiss me on the forehead. He said softly, "There are
some issues that have to be dealt with tonight. You go to sleep first."
"Okay." I sighed. I knew that I couldn''t be a stumbling block in his career, but I still couldn''t help
reminding him, "Come back early, don''t spend the night in the office, you''ll catch a cold."
Hendrixughed. "Don''t worry. I''m full of strength now. I can stay up all night."
I blushed and pretended to urge him out. "Go, go,e back early."
Hendrix nodded and left the room with his phone.
As soon as he left, the house quieted down, and I didn''t feel sleepy anymore.
ncing at the time, I realized it was only eleven o''clock, and the most exciting part of the night had
just started.
Thinking of Amos'' advice, I put on my clothes and got out of bed. I took my medicine for today with
a ss of warm water and threw out the previous medications that I''d taken to nourish my body.
The prescription would notst long, and they might end up going bad if I kept them any longer. If
that happened, these medicines would be useless, no matter which doctor prescribed them to me.
I suddenly remembered that Anne had a habit of untucking herself during sleep, so I simply
wrapped myself with a jacket and went to her room to check on her. When I saw that her body was
properly covered with the quilt, I was relieved.
I was still clear-headed when I returned back to the bedroom. I leaned against the headboard and
spent some time on my phone.
A few minutester, Freya sent me a message.
{Lonely wildcat waiting for someone to talk to?}
Iughed at her. She was already a mother, yet she was still so indiscreet when she talked. I
replied, {What''s the price?}
After sending the message, I couldn''t helpughing.
This was not something that two mothers should be talking about.
Almost immediately, Freya called me on the phone and asked, "What''s wrong with you? Are you
alone tonight, like me?"
Iughed. Sometimes, I really felt that she was a humorous person. "Professor Holt isn''t home?"
Sheined, "Don''t mention it. He''d already left for the meeting. I just don''t understand why
they don''t want to stay at home and enjoy their free time during the holidays. Do intellectuals have
different brain structurespared to normal people?"
This was exactly what Freya was thinking. Her mouth was not forgiving, but she had a warm heart.
She probably just couldn''t bear to part with Zachary. I teased her, "Professor Holt is young and
promising, and he''s so handsome. Aren''t you afraid young women will target him if you don''t go
along with him to his meeting?"
Men in their thirties were more popr than young people in their twenties. At this age, men were
more mature and stable, and they had achieved a lot in their careers. For people like Zachary, his
thoughtful personality would definitely attract many young girls who admired him.
I often felt that Zachary, who taught in a college, was more attractive to girlspared to Hendrix.Còntens bel0ngs to N?(v)elDr/a/ma.Org
