Chapter 155 The Request of the Watson Family

Early the next morning, the sunlight slanted

Betty opened her eyes and looked at Kerwin who was still sleeping.

His breathing was even. His eyebrows were bushy and inky. The contours of his face were close to perfection. Betty looked till a smile appeared on her face.

All of a sudden, Kerwin threw his arm around her shoulder. Turned out he had pretended to be asleep.

Abashed, Betty buried her head under the blanket.

Kerwin also slipped under the covers and kissed her on the lips.

They kissed for a long time. It seemed they could do this all day.

Betty grabbed Kerwin’s groping hands. “No, don’t. It’s rare that both of us are free today, so why don’t we do something else?”

Kerwin thought for a moment and found her words reasonable. Staying in bed all day was unhealthy, and he decided to give her a break.

“It’s sunny outside and happens to be

Sunday. How about we go out for a walk?” he whispered.

Betty pondered and found that she had never been outdoors with Kerwin alone.
