Chapter 1204


    Anthea candidly gave Leonardo a look of "I''m henpecked. So what?"


    After Adam returned home from the Chin''s Mansion, it was dark in the house. No one responded to


    his calling for a long time. He thought Anthea must have fallen asleep. However, after searching for


    the master bedroom and guest bedroom, he couldn''t see her.


    Adam became very anxious.


    He called her several times, but no one picked up the phone.


    Adam was out of choice but to ask his one of his friends working in the police station to locate


    Anthea''s mobile phone through satellite positioning methods of criminal investigation. They easily


    learned that Anthea and her mobile phone were in an Inte cafe.


    Now, Adam''s face was still gloomy, and he poked his index finger on Anthea''s forehead.


    Then, he picked up the crutch, bent over, and lifted her up from the sofa.


    At this time, Anthea was not angry with Adam at all. Instead, she just let him do anything he liked.


    Her leg with ster hang in the air, and her body curled up in his arms like a little kitten. She


    lowered her face and didn''t make any sound.


    After Adam and Anthea left the room, Leonardo looked at theputer screen with nk eyes. The


    game character he chose was killed again. What''s worse, some other yers reported to the video


    game tform that Leonardo had "intentionally lose the game many times in order to make trouble


    for the other yers"!


    His rank in WOW had fallen from Level 42 to Level 24 because of punishment from the tform...


    Leonardo sadly found that the quarreling between Anthea and Adam finally resulted in theplete


    failure of his character, Pdin, in WOW!


    Adam drove Anthea back home.


    The crutch was directly left in the car. He carried her all the way from the underground parking lot to


    home by elevator, just like what he did in the Inte cafe.


    Adam put Anthea on the sofa. He had noticed that she had been lowering her eyshes all the way


    back. She looked aggrieved and downhearted, like a kitten who lost its master''s love. He smiled,


    and his darkened face rxed a little.


    He opened the refrigerator and saw that the food he prepared for her had not moved. He could not


    help


    sighing.


    "Are you hungry?" Adam asked her.


    "Well..." Anthea honestly covered her empty stomach with her hands.


    Adam sighed again. He told her to wait. He then took the food out of the refrigerator and went to the


    kitchen to cook them for her.


    The kitchen venttor was buzzing in the quiet night.


    In winter nights in the north, when themps were lighted up, the houses would look like small


    castles.


    Anthea stood tip-toed and looked at the kitchen of their small castle. She saw that Adam''s tall and


    strong figure was standing in front of the stove. He was wearing an apron, but his short ck hair,


    as well as his prominent and square chin, marked the man of power and determination. Even if she


    could only see one side of his face, he was still as handsome as Mars, the God of War.


    Adam frowned and tasted the soup seriously.


    Anthea couldn''t take her eyes off this handsome man of hers. It seemed that the bad mood she


    previously had was now almost dispelled by her admiration of the masculine features of her


    boyfriend.


    s... Anthea was always such a fragile woman in the face of a handsome man!


    Adam made her some soup again, cooked a bag of deep-frozen dumplings, and then fried the


    dumplings with olive oil on a t pan.


    This was Anthea''s favorite dish. When Adam cooked for her for the first time, he made fried


    dumplings, which looked golden and tasted crispy. She loved them so much!


    They were as silent as they were on their way back while sitting there for dinner. Adam didn''t eat


    anything. He simply watched her eating.


    After the meal and washing-up, he held her in his arms, carried her into the bedroom, and put her


    down on the big bed.


    As soon as her neck touched the pillow, Adam held her face with his palms and kissed her directly.


    Anthea''s lips were sealed unexpectedly by the kiss.


    She panted, but she naturally wouldn''t struggle against his attempt.


    Adam''s breath was strong, and his kissing skills were superb. He did not let go of her until her pink


    lips were red and bulging.


    His finger pulps with gun calluses rubbed the corners of her mouth, and he watched her trembling in


    his arms. After that, he propped up an arm, looked at her, and questioned her. "Tell me. Why di n''t


    you listen to me?"


    Anthea was silent.


    "Why din''t you pick up my call? You did it deliberately?" Adam continued to ask.


    Anthea remained silent.


    He pinched her chin with his fingers, and she could only hum, "No..."


    "Nothing?" Adam raised his eyebrows.


    Anthea''s eyshes trembled, and she stammered, "I just feel bored and wanted to go out to have


    some fun!"


    Adam''s thin lips curved into a smile. He asked jokingly, "Are you sure you were simply bored, and


    not because of grievance?"


    Anthea felt wronged and aggrieved in her heart. However, she didn''t want him to think that she was


    a narrow-minded or unreasonable girl. She tried not to say anything.


    Anthea looked up and met his ck eyes which were giving her a faint smile, half-joking and


    halfcaring. Feeling ashamed and annoyed at the same time, she moved her chin away from his


    fingers, turned around, and said gloomily, "I don''t know what you are talking about. I just want to


    sleep!"


    But Adam did not give in.


    He reached out to hold her shoulders and turned her back to face him again.


    Adam rode on her body and put his hands near her head to support himself. His eyes were firmly


    fixed on her. He had nowpletely controlled her movement.


    His eyes were ck, and the eyelids were deeply sunken. When he was so close to Anthea, she


    felt as all her thoughts and secrets had been seen through by him. In other words, she couldn''t hide


    anything from him. She felt helpless in such a controlled position.


    In particr, his eyes seemed to be shing with an air of frivolity.


    Anthea puffed out her cheeks like an angry little frog. She realized that Adam would insist on


    teasing her, and she couldn''t avoid it. She braced herself to ask him, "Your father must like Amelie


    very much, right?"


    In fact, she was very concerned about this question.


    Hearing this, Adam raised his eyebrows and nodded, "Yes... It''s true."


    He acted as if he didn''t see Anthea''s wrinkled little face. He added slowly, "I grew up with Amelie.


    When I was still a child, she often came to my house with Uncle Celestin. I had only two brothers,


    and there were no girls in my family. Every time, my father would ask the servants to buy candies


    for her."


    Anthea was extremely depressed at what she heard.


    She should have guessed it earlier!


    Amelie was a military officer and Adam''srade-in-arms. They were about the same age. Carter


    Laux once said that many colleagues in the army believed that Amelie and Adam would be a


    suitable couple. The scenes of Amelie sitting in the dining room of the Chin Family popped up in


    Anthea''s mind. She thought that Adam''s father, who had always been a dignified old man, must like


    Amelie very much...


    When Anthea was forced to face the reality, she felt like she had suffered a great blow.


    Not long ago, when she was brought to the Chin Family by Adam, Bemy did not treat her nicely!


    Adam said slowly to Anthea, "I chatted with Amelie for a while after the dinner."


    "Oh." Anthea frowned. She reached out her little hands to push him away. Then, she turned around


    with her eyes closed. "I''m really sleepy. I need to go to sleep!"


    This time, Adam didn''t stop her. Instead, he asked her with a chuckle, "Anthea, don''t you want to


    know what I have talked to her?"


    "... No!" Anthea bit her lips.


    "You really don''t want to know?" Adam tried to coax her.

    Anthea shook her head like a rattle.


    "I don''t want... I don''t want to!"


    The next second, she felt his thin lips stuck to her ear, and his deep voice so close to her. "I told


    Amelie that we were both friends andrades-in-arms, but there is no affection between the two


    of us. Whether in the past or now, or in the future, there will never by any possibility for us to


    be lovers."


    Anthea opened her eyes in shock.


    She turned around and stared at Adam nkly.


    Anthea was dumbfounded and her expression was amazed. "Adam, you..."


    Looking at her delicate and pink lips, which were still bulging after being kissed by him


    passionately, Adam curled his lips up. Her eyes were just like two ponds full of spring water. He


    gently caressed her head. "I just don''t want my little girl to be unhappy."
