Chapter 1601


    "All right, let''s end today''s meeting. Everyone, please rest early." Jayden looked up after finishing


    his work and happened to meet Silvia''s burning gaze. He couldn''t help but smile. "Is there anything


    on my face?"


    "Well, there really is something. " Silvia suddenly leaned forward and gave him a peck on the cheek.


    "Now it''s gone."


    Jayden chuckled. "You''re so cheeky."


    He resisted the urge to kiss her back for fear that it would go out of control and he would suffer in


    the end.


    Silvia saw through his actions. It made her heart ached to see him resisting his desires for her. She


    said apologetically, "Jayden, it must have been tough for you for the past few months."


    Jayden failed to grasp the true meaning behind her words. He stood up after switching off the


    computer and responded, "Work is also a part of my life. What’s tough about it?"


    "I''m not talking to you about work..." Unsure whether Jayden was toying with her or he really didn''t


    understand what she meant, Silvia flushed with embarrassment as she said softly, "You'' re a normal


    guy and it’s natural for you to have sexual desires. It’s been months since we engaged in anything


    of that sort. Are you sure that you don''t bear any resentment towards me?"


    Silvia finally got pregnant and there were signs of miscarriage in the early stage of pregnancy.


    Hence, both of them tried their best to protect the baby. Without a doubt, having sex was out of the


    question.


    It did not matter to Silvia, but she knew that Jayden had been resisting his needs for a very long


    time.


    He was in the prime of his life. Whenever his desire was aroused, it could not be satisfied.


    Sometimes, he would cuddle her in his arms, but if the desire lingered on, he would be forced to


    take a cold bath. Seeing him in distress made Silvia''s heart go out to him.


    Jayden nudged her affectionately. "You are letting your imagination run wild. It''s already so tough for


    you during pregnancy. I''m blessed beyond measure that you don’t me me for it. Who in their right


    mind would fault you?"


    "Well, I know you don''t resent me, but I feel bad for you..." Silvia held his arm and beamed. "My


    dear husband, you must be tired after a day of work. Go back to your room and have a rest."


    "All right, I''ll have a rest." Jayden was not tired but he would rest early every day as he was worried


    that Silvia would be tired from apanying him.


    Silvia was aware of his intentions, but she never exposed it. It was an effective way to let him rest


    early.


    Once he stepped out of the door of her room, she grinned and said mischievously, "Jayden, I have


    prepared you an enormous gift. It''s in your room. I can sleep alone tonight, don''t worry."


    Before he could react, Silvia entered her room and mmed the door shut, locking it.


    "Silvia, what''s wrong with you today?" Although she was pregnant, they had never slept separately.


    Jayden was concerned and rapped on the door anxiously.


    Silvia did not open the door for him. "Go back to your room and open therge gift I gave you. After


    that, tell me how you feel tomorrow. I''ll sleep first. Good night, Jayden."


    He was full of anticipation of the present that Silvia had prepared for him. Hence, he did not insist


    on having her open the door.


    He entered his room and looked for the gift. A big gift box was ced on his bed.


    The size of the gift box was indeedrge. It was possible to fit a person inside the box.


    The size of the box did not startle Jayden as ever since Silvia got pregnant, she began to have


    childish tastes and bought soft plushies from time to time.

    She said that it was prepared for their baby, but everyone knew that she bought it for herself. She


    would always cuddle a plushie no matter what she was doing.


    Although Jayden was not particrly interested in plushies, he would dly ept it since it was a


    gift from Silvia. Ecstatic to see what kind of treasure she had given him, he tore it open. Upon


    seeing what was inside, his face flushed red with anger and he bellowed, "Silvia!"


    "That d*mned woman! How could she give me such a thing?"


    The walls and ceilings have been soundproofed but somehow, Silvia seemed to hear him bellowing


    in the next room.


    He should be on cloud nine after receiving the gift. Why was he fuming mad?


    Silvia quickly hid under the nkets and stroked her round belly as she spoke to her baby, "Baby,


    did I get myself into trouble? Maybe I''m just thinking too much. Your dad probably isn''t furious at


    all."


    There was no response, so Silvia continued, "Baby, you didn''t respond to me. Is it because you


    agree that I have done something wrong? I didn’t want to do it either, but my heart ached every time


    I thought of your daddy, so I came up with this idea. I''m doing this for his own good, so he shouldn''t


    be furious."


    "For my own good? Silvia, you didn''t ask for my opinion whether I want it or not. Is that considered


    for my own good? We have been engaged for so many years, don''t you know me well enough?


    Don''t you know what I truly care about?"


    Jayden''s indignant yet exasperated voice rang from above, scaring her out of her wits. Was she


    hallucinating? How could it be possible?


    Silvia poked her head out in panic. When she saw him standing by her bed, sullen-face, she was so


    startled that she stammered, "I, I locked the door and the windows of the balcony. How did you get


    in?"


    Jayden wasn''t going to tell her that ever since she got pregnant, he had secretly asked someone to


    change the locks at home. He had in his possession a multifunctional key. Hence, whether the


    doors were locked from the inside or not, he could always open them when required. This was to


    prevent Silvia from locking herself in the room whenever she was enraged.


    After she got pregnant, Silvia became quite grouchy for a while but she had followed his advice and


    had never secluded herself from the others. This was the first time she locked herself in her room,


    not because she was angry, but she was afraid that he would teach her a lesson.


    Jayden stared at his wife with bloodshot eyes as if he wanted to gobble her up.


    "Jayden..." Silvia had just uttered his name when he hugged her abruptly. His burning lips pressed


    against hers.


    His kiss was fierce and overbearing. His insistent mouth parted her shaking lips, sending wild


    tremors along her nerves, evoking a sense of desire. Silvia had not been kissed that way for a long


    time. Her heart was pounding as a swimming giddiness spun her round and round. The temperature


    of her body was slowly rising. She loved him, and liked his kissing, and yearned for the way he was


    holding her...


    However, it was far from enough. Silvia longed for more.


    She instinctively stretched out her arms and hugged him as she struggled to utter his name,


    "Jayden..."


    Her voice was weak and soft, and desire stirred in Jayden''s blood. He wanted her, he wanted more,


    but suddenly he let go of her and staggered backward. He didn''t even dare look at her...
