Lily tilted her head curiously and asked, “Why were you so anxious and panicked earlier? What’s the big deal?”

Ethan shrugged casually but avoided her gaze. “I just didn’t want any misunderstandings between us. Especially considering… well, I had a marriage contract with her daughter.”

Lily raised an eyebrow, a playful smirk on her face. “Why would she bring that up? She didn’t even know I’m your wife until now. You’re the one who just spilled the beans!”

He sighed, looking sheepish. “When it comes to you, I’m not willing to take any chances.”

Her expression softened, and a teasing smile appeared on her lips. “Aww… my husband is so sweet,” she said, clasping her hands dramatically. “I just want to kiss you right now.”

Ethan didn’t miss a beat. He leaned closer, ready to take her up on her words. But before he could, Lily took a small step back and glared at him.

“Mr. Ethan, what do you think you’re doing? Trying to turn us into tomorrow’s headline?” she whispered sharply, glancing around.

Realizing his surroundings, Ethan paused, then pouted like a disappointed child denied his favorite treat. “It’s

“Not here,” she replied firmly, shaking her head.

“Then how about we go home?” he asked, his eyes lighting up with eagerness.

Lily rolled her eyes and shot him an exasperated look. “Can you stop thinking about that for once?”

Ethan smirked mischievously, his tone dropping an octave. “How am I supposed to stop when my wife looks like the most beautiful gift, wrapped up perfectly just for me?”

Her cheeks immediately turned crimson. She opened her mouth to retort, but no words came out. “Stop it!” she whined, covering her face with her hands.

Ethan laughed softly, his chest swelling with pride. He loved seeing her flustered, her shy smile a testament to the effect he had on her. Deep down, he felt a profound satisfaction knowing that only he could bring this side of her to light.
