Chapter 458



Suddenly, my heart softened.

I wrapped my arms around his waist, holding him tightly, letting him take what he wanted.

Probably because there were two other people in the bedroom, an adult and a child, Gregory didn't go too far, just a taste and no more. His eyes deepened as he asked, "Come over to my place?"

I felt my cheeks burn and glared at him. "Is Christine here to play matchmaker with your nephew?"

"Just this once."

He was thick-skinned.

But I still declined. "No way, we just made it official. Can't rush into things."

"Am I rushing?"

His gaze was teasing, his voice clear, "Besides, I just want to cuddle in bed. You're on your period, so it's not like we can go all in..."

"Gregory!"

So blunt! He just says whatever comes to mind.

I tried to cover his mouth, but it was too late to stop him from saying those words. My face felt even hotter, my ears burning.

He gently moved my hand away, holding it in his, raising an eyebrow, "Can't say that?"

"No."

"Why not?"

"...It's... It's too much."

"How is it too much?"
