Chapter 755


    In the past, Howard had always seen ine as a maid, but from then on, he started to have some


    peculiar feelings as he looked at her.


    He started to size her up whenever he looked at her.


    When he got home from work, he would sit in the living room watching TV and watching her being


    busy in the kitchen.


    He even started to judge her body quietly.


    As he leaned against the sofa listening to the voicesing from the TV, he would look at ine


    and thought, "She is not tall, but her body figure is awesome. Petite but curvy."


    She had a narrow waist, nice.


    And her perky buttocks, nice.


    And those pair of short but slender legs, nice.


    After sizing her up for a while, he found that she was like a rough diamond.


    As long as the surface was polished and cut, it would turn out to be a precious gem.


    Indeed, Howard was an experienced womanizer, and he managed to evaluate ine''s physical


    figure within a night.


    Ever since then, Howard started to get closer to her. He would reduce her house chores, take her


    out to dinner asionally, and he even brought her to Simon''s one-month celebration party.


    He had one ss too many at the party, but it wasn''t until he was unconscious.


    He got close to her under the influence of the alcohol, which was also a way to tell her that he was


    interested in her.


    He thought that any woman could tell how he felt, but this silly girl not only did not feel it, but she


    also treated him as a rogue and started to avoid him.


    Since that day, she had even started to lock her door.


    Did she think that he would sneak into her room in the middle of the night to assault her?


    Yes, he admitted that he was indeed a yboy, but he would never stoop so low!


    Every woman he dated was doing it willingly. He had never forced any woman!


    ine and Sharon sat on chairs, talking to each other. Sharon asked her about her family''s


    situation, and she answered her truthfully.


    As she spoke, she felt that something was off.


    Someone was staring at her.


    The woman''s intuition could be urate at times. When she looked back, she saw someone was


    looking at her, and it was Howard.


    However, there was no expression on his face. On the contrary, his face was a little gloomy as well


    as his re.


    His re stunned her, and she started to think about what had happenedst night. He had pressed


    her against the couch and had kissed her...


    This was the first time she had ever seen him like this. He was imposing an intimidating and


    depressing aura around his body...


    Now that she thought about it, she could still feel his scalding temperature when he pressed down


    on her...


    "What are you thinking about, ine Jacob?!"


    She patted her blushing face and tried to drive those cranky thoughts away.


    "What are you doing?" Sharon was a little confused when she saw ine suddenly p herself. "Is


    there a mosquito?"


    ine mumbled, avoiding her gaze, "N-Nothing..."


    "Oh my, why is your face so red?" Sharon has noticed her ruddy face.


    It made ine even more embarrassed that she lowered her head and was on pins and needles. "I-


    I''m sleepy. I''ll go back to my room now."


    It was reallyte, so Sharon nodded and said, "Alright. Let me take you to your room."


    "No thanks. Go ahead and y with the children. I know where my room is. Don''t worry."


    "Okay then. Good night."

    "Good night."


    She quickly nodded and ran away.


    Chuckling, Sharon went to Ariah, and as she got closer, she realized that Howard looked rather


    gloomy. It made her wonder what Ariah had said to him.


    "Where is ine?" Ariah asked.


    "She said that she was sleepy, so I let her go back to her room. But her face was very red. I wonder


    if she is not feeling well. Never mind, I''ll check her outter."


    As soon as she finished speaking, Howard suddenly turned around and left. Sharon yelped, "Where


    do you think you''re going? I have something to tell you."


    Without even turning his head, Howard rebuked, "I''m going to take a leak. Are youing?"


    Hearing that, Sharon squinted in disgust.


    After Howard was gone, Sharon asked, "What did you say to him? He looked quite awful. Did you


    warn him to stay away from ine?"


    Ariah was also confused. "I''ve said everything I can in a tactful way, but he didn''t say anything in


    return, just keep everything to himself with that gloomy expression. But I think that Howard doesn''t


    know that ine has a fiance."


    At this point, Sharon smiled. "I know."


    "How did you know?"


    "ine told me. It''s an arranged marriage that her family set up for her. They''re from the same


    hometown. She said that they would get married after New Year."


    Looking in the direction where Howard had disappeared, Ariah pursed her lips into a smile. "I don''t


    think that she''s going to get married, after all."


    Sharon nodded. "Yup, I think so too."


    After returning to the room, ine sat on the sofa and was in a daze for a while, then she got up


    and went to the bathroom to take a bath.


    As soon as she came out of the bathroom, the doorbell rang before she could wipe away the water


    drops on her face.


    Her room was next to Sharon''s. She thought that Sharon came to see her, so she quickly ran over


    and opened the door. "Sharon..."


    However, she couldn''t finish her sentence.


    It was not Sharon.


    The man outside the door nced at her, and pushed the door open, and went in without saying a


    word.


    After a moment of hesitation, she closed the door and followed him, muttering, "D-Dr. Perkins, why


    are you here?"


    "What? I can''te?" Howard sat down on the couch and looked at her with raised eyebrows.


    "Y- Yes, you can," said ine in a low voice, standing in the corner.


    Seeing her like this, Howard started to get angry again. "Why are you standing so far away? Do you


    think I''ll eat you up?”


    She stole a peek at him before looking away quickly and insisted, "It''s gettingte. I want to sleep.


    Can you leave please?"


    "No, I can''t!"


    ine blinked, astounded.


    She never expected such a blunt rejection that she was stunned beyond words.


    Howard snorted, "I''m thirsty. Pour me a ss of


    water."


    "You can do it yourself..." ine muttered under her breath.


    Despite what she said, she subconsciously walked towards the kettle, poured him a ss of water,


    and put it on the table. Just as she was walking away, Howard pointed to the sofa across from him


    and demanded, "Sit down!"


    Anxious, she obeyed.


    In the meantime, Howard sized her up again. She had just taken a shower. She casually tied up her


    hair with a few strands of hair dangling beside her cheeks. As she breathed, the hair would swipe


    across her face.


    She did not apply anything to her bare face, and she looked rather sparkly and clean with droplets


    of water sticking on her face.


    Howe he never realized how pretty she was?


    No, he concluded that she had never dressed up before.


    She had the worst fashion sense with her lousy clothes and shabby pants.


    However, she had removed her worn-out clothes with only a pure white bathrobe on her. She


    looked rather petite and adorable as her body was wrapped under the huge bathrobe.


    A bathrobe was more beautiful than all the clothes she had ever worn.


    Howard''s eyes narrowed as he held the ss in his hand. He thought to himself whether to take her


    shopping for clothes...
