Chapter 136

Kenneth's voice was low and teasing. Ophelia blushed when he called her "my dearest wife."

Meanwhile, a Twitter notification buzzed on her phone. Ophelia glanced down at it. [Sharon Campbell Thomas Collins Celebrating New Year Together Possibly Living Together.] Before she could open it, a video call from Sharon came through

Kenneth had a playful glint in his eye, bent down, and kissed her lips, causing her hand to twitch and answer the call.

"Elia, Happy New Year..." The call lasted only two seconds before she immediately hung up, pressing her hands on Kenneth's shoulders.

Kenneth took the phone from her hand, tossed it onto the couch, wrapped his arm around her waist, and deepened the kiss.

The switch on the wall flickered, and the dark curtains by the large window slowly closed automatically.

The room turned pitch black. In her view, she could only see Kenneth's chiseled face, more deep-set and defined, like a dark lord reigning over the shadows.

Kenneth said, "Focus, put your heart into it." The last word was emphasized.

Ophelia was speechless and Kenneth's kiss came down like a tidal wave.

As evening approached, Ophelia's stomach was growling. "Kenneth, I'm hungry... so hungry..."

"What do you want to eat?" His voice was low and enticing.

"I want dumplings." During the New Year, it's traditional to eat dumplings.

Ophelia felt her eyelids getting heavier, and with the dim lighting, she gradually fell asleep.

When she woke up again, it was completely dark outside, and a few warm yellow nightlights were on in the room.

She got up from the bed, feeling that the soreness in her waist and legs had mostly eased.
