Chapter 10 Slept Together
Stanley was immediately upset when he saw Melinda’s reaction. Is she disgusted by me or something?
He then stalked toward her, prompting her to grab the bathrobe on the bed and hurl it at him without missing a beat. “Put it on!”
He smoothly grabbed the bathrobe that came flying toward him and wore it without stopping in his tracks.
Melinda then turned around, and when she saw that he had tied the belt of the bathrobe, she started yelling, “You think you are so great for stealing my children from me? Fight me one-on-one if you dare! Just what kind of man brings his bodyguards along and bullies a powerless woman as you did?!”
She angrily glared at the intimidating man, absolutely hating his attitude.
“Fight one-on-one?” Stanley frowned. “You and me?”
“That’s right!”
The man didn’t seem to care and he came to a stop when the both of them were in close proximity. “The bodyguards learned martial arts from me. I will consider fighting you only after you have won against them. I don’t hit women, let alone my wife. It would be detrimental to my reputation if the public knew.”
Swiftly after Stanley said that, his big palm slid around her slender waist, forcing her torso against his.

His eyes were as dark as an abyss when he lowered his gaze to look at her. “Don’t start feeling aggrieved now. I despise deception the most. You’re a brave one for hiding something so important from me for seven whole years.”
Melinda remained quiet, but she started to feel guilty when she sensed his anger.
She didn’t dare move or speak as she quietly listened to the clear sound of his strong heartbeat right next to her ear.
“Time for bed.” With a light nudge, Stanley pushed her to sit on the bed while he quickly turned the main light off.
Under the dim lights, Melinda saw him take off his bathrobe and get into bed with only his underwear on.
“Lie down,” he instructed.
She felt her heart jolt when she heard that, but still, she quietly closed her eyes and lay down as he told her to.
The night got deeper, but her body was tense the entire time as messy thoughts filled her head.
Unlike her, Stanley looked like he was sleeping.
He remained immobile and his eyes were lightly shut. The light fragrance of herbs wafting in the air had calmed his heart and even reduced the irritable feeling in his chest.
Melinda unconsciously recalled that night seven years ago. It was a memory she couldn’t erase no matter what. After all, that was her first time.
As she recalled all the details of that night, she began blushing furiously in the danovelxo.com fast updaterk.
When the next morning came, Melinda, who was used to sleeping on her stomach, relished in how soft, comfortable, and warm her whole body felt.
She rather naturally copped a feel before she leisurely opened her eyes, only to realize that what she was fondling was a sturdy and warm chest.
“Ah!”
Her soul almost left her body from the shock as she sat up while letting out a shrill scream.
She only saw Stanley, who had both hands cushioning the back of his head, pressing his thin lips together as he gazed at her as apathetically as he could.
