Chapter 782


    Emmanuel’s heartbeat waspletely thrown into disarray!


    He had thought that, at most, Mackenzie would ask him to help her with


    preparing a hot bath, but now she wasn’t even using the bathtub. She’s


    serious about wanting me to scrub her, ahem, doesn’t she?


    Just thinking about the scene made his blood boil…


    Good heavens, Mackenzie must actually be sick and not just tired today! She


    looks quite unwell!


    Since she had demanded his assistance, he could onlyply.


    While Mackenzie went to brush her teeth, he entered the bathroom, adjusted


    the water temperature, and prepared the shower gel and bath sponge.


    Thinking that in a little while, Mackenzie would be standing before him,


    racing.


    He wouldn’t have dared to even dream of such a thing before.


    Today, I can finally openly appreciate wifey’s beautiful body…


    Is she also nning to do something else after the shower? Has Grandpa


    pressured her to get pregnant sooner again?


    His racing heart gradually became even more chaotic.


    Emmanuel walked somewhat absentmindedly out of the bathroom and ran


    straight into Mackenzie.


    “What’s wrong? You seem a little off,” she said with a slightly mischievous


    smile, her long eyshes curved upward yfully.


    “I… I’m fine. I’m ready to help you with your shower!” Emmanuel actually


    couldn’t meet his wife’s gaze, and his focus kept shifting.


    “Do you need such formal preparations for washing peaches?” Mackenzie


    suddenly pointed to a bag of peaches on the table in the living room. “I


    meant washing those peaches. Where did your mind wander off to?”


    Emmanuel continued more fluently, “Ms. Quillen, you are my legal wife. Isn’t it


    normal for a husband to misunderstand what you said just now?


    “I’ll say it straight, Ms. Quillen. You have a great figure, delicate skin, and most


    importantly, there’s an inexplicable allure about you that attracts me. I enjoy


    admiring your body, and I crave your touch, okay?! Is this answer


    satisfactory?”


    Mackenzie furrowed her brows and stared icily at Emmanuel. How dare he! I


    can’t believe he sair such shameless things to my face!


    If it were someone else, Mackenzie would have pped him across the face


    and cursed him for generations toe. However, there was a strange


    flutter in her heart right now.


    Emmanuel was being so candid that she found herself avoiding his gaze.


    Emmanuel really wanted to take advantage of the situation and pull his wife


    into the bathroom to help her shower. But his courage slowly dissipated, and


    with a red face, he said, “Since the water temperature is already adjusted,


    Mackenzie, you go ahead and shower. I’ll wash the peaches for you!”


    Mackenzie snorted coldly, turned her face away, and remained silent. Her


    heartbeat slightly elerated.


    Just when I wonder if he’d dare pull mé into the bathroom.


    But in the end, Emmanuel didn’t dare to do it, passing by her side instead.


    “Coward!” Mackenzie muttered under her breath and coldly walked into theN?velDrama.Org: owner of this content.


    bathroom.


    Emmanuel face-palmed, deeply regretting how he could’ve uttered such


    words just now. How dare I actually tell the Ice Queen that I crave her body?! I


    must be out of my mind! You’re supposed to be a straightced guy,


    Emmanuel! How can you have such thoughts…
