True Love Waits

Chapter 1150 Carry Me

Erica was starting to experience a sudden qualm of regret as she brought another piece of cantaloupe to Matthew's mouth. Although it was too late to go back on her word, she gave it one last try. "Finish the rest of this and I promise I'll deliver all the kisses together!"

But Matthew wasn't that easy to fool. "Do I look like an idiot to you?"

Even Erica knew he wasn't. The man was sharp as a tack! Having run out of options, Erica leaned over to him and sheepishly pecked him twice on the lips.

Matthew smiled before he dropped another piece into his mouth, and just like that he cleaned up the rest. Erica gave him the last two kisses after the last bite, but when she was about to leave, he stopped her. He took the plate from her hand, pulled her into his arms and kissed her with raw intensity.

Erica relented as he played with her hair and held her tighter and tighter. She melted like a candle into his arms, wondering if he had her trapped.

The man was unable to control his urges anymore; his hands working their way around her body, feeling each line along her perfect physique. Panic-stricken, Erica bit his lips and sunk her nails into his arms. Frowning, he released her and they pulled apart, both gasping for air.

Erica looked at him with furrowed eyebrows and said, "You... You're cheating!" Not only did Matthew blatantly disregard their agreement, but he was looking to get more. Erica could feel her cheeks blushing a deep crimson.

Sitting cross-legged and leaning his back to the chair, Matthew regained his composure and said, "Rest assured. Although we're married, I'll respect your boundaries and try my best to control myself." 'Control himself?' Erica was puzzled by his behavior. 'Didn't he just say he wasn't interested in me two days ago? What's with the sudden change of mind?

Is he really not interested in me or is he just comforting me with the excuse of "respecting my boundaries"?'

Nonetheless, she decided to be more careful of his tricks in the future.

"Go and wash the dishes!" The man's voice brought her back to reality instantly.

Erica took the empty plate and bowl from the table, walked into the kitchen, and put them in the sink carelessly. She rolled up her sleeves, ready to do the dishes. However, as she stared at the mess in front of her, she fell into deep thought.

Erica had no idea where to even begin.

'Think, Erica Li. Come on, you can do this!' she cheered herself.

Then, she squeezed some of the cleaner into the pot, picked up the brush and prepared to start the work.

However... "What are you doing?" Suddenly, Matthew's deep voice came from behind.

She turned around and winked at him. "Can't you see? I'm washing the dishes." 'Is he blind or what? Can't he see the sink?' she mused.
