Love’s Cunning Ruse

Chapter 223

Julie curiously looked at Kieran, just wanting to see how he was going to solve the current issue. But she was surprised to see him rummaging around for his phone. Once he found it, he dialed a number and ordered loudly, “Villa 3, Block A, Noblewood Retreat, send over two boxes of condoms.”

Julie sat on the edge of the bed, totally stunned. She glanced at the alarm clock on the bedside table. It was already 1:20 a.m. Ordering condoms delivered in the middle of the night? This was the first time Julie wished she could crack Kieran’s head open to see what was going on inside.

Before she could say anything, Kieran was talking to the person on the other end of the phone again. “Yeah, the biggest size.” After finishing his call, he calmly turned to Julie, “Babe, he’s asking what type you prefer?”

Julie was speechless.

Before she could reply, Kieran handed her the phone.

Julie immediately hung up, “I thought I was shameless, how can you be even more shameless than me?”

“Who were you calling?” Julie asked him.

He sat down next to her and replied, “The 24-hour supermarket at Noblewood Retreat

He glanced at the top of Julie’s robe and said, “Nice outfit.”

She smiled and asked him, “Is it me who looks nice or the outfit?”

“Your bust,” he replied bluntly.

Julie threw a pillow at Kieran, “Are you sober yet?”

Kieran shook his head, “I feel like I’m dreaming, does that count as sober?”

“Dylan mentioned earlier that you had a bottle of wine ready for us to share?” Julie wasn’t really drunk, and she had sobered up quite a bit since the drive home.

She brought up the wine because Dylan had mentioned it earlier. Kieran had planned to surprise her by having Tina deliver the wine to their house. So she wanted to make up for the surprise she’d missed.

Another reason was that it had been a long time since they’d been intimate. Since giving birth, she felt like she needed a bit of liquid courage. And boy, did she need it! Even though it was something they both wanted.

When she mentioned the bottle of wine, Kieran probably sobered up a bit. He pointed towards their bedroom and said, “It’s on the wine rack in my room. Go get it.”

Julie nodded and was about to get up when Kieran suddenly said, “Actually, I’ll go get it!”

“Oh!” Julie patted the bed, “Then I’ll wait for you.”

“Okay.” Kieran leaned against the wall as he walked towards the bedroom. Julie sat in a daze for a moment, then started rummaging around for a camera to capture her beautiful nightgown. Just then, her phone rang.

She put the camera on the dressing table and quickly answered the call.
