Chapter 173 I Only Want You!

“T–turn around!” Maia demanded.

Cedric smiled as he gently moved his hand that was on Maia’s waist.

Maia was ticklish so she could not help but laugh lightly as she pushed him with one of her hands and grabbed his hand with the other.

“Cedric, you’re breaking the rules!”

“It wasn’t written that I can’t be in the bathroom with my wife.”

Before Maia could protest, Cedric dimmed the lights in the bathroom and stepped into the bathtub, “Nor take a bath with her.”

Maia was taken aback for a few seconds before retreating to a corner. She had thought that Cedric would play by the rules.

“You’re so shameless!” She shouted at him as she tried to grab a towel to wrap around her body. Unfortunately, Cedric stopped her midway as he snatched the bath towel out of her

reach.

He smiled, then moved to trap her between himself and the bathtub. He whispered into her ear in a low husky voice, “What do you think a man would do at a time like this?”

“Cedric, I’m warning you. If you dare lay a finger on me, I’ll leave Prismara Hill tomorrow and

sue you!”

“Sure, I’ll be waiting,” Cedric replied calmly. “I’d welcome any public display of affection. That way, everyone will know you’re mine.”

Maia pleaded, “Why can’t you leave me alone? You could have any woman you wanted!”

“I don’t want any other woman. I only want you!”

His words made her heart flutter as she felt butterflies in her stomach. Her breathing rushed and uneven as if she had forgotten how to breathe.

It was like time had stopped for them. When Maia was jolted awake from the cold, she regained her composure and smiled at Cedric.

“But I don’t want you anymore. You’re not my only option!” Maia ignored the pain that was building in her chest and continued.

“Don’t forget that we’re only business partners. I’ve vowed to accept you when our goals are achieved, but it doesn’t seem like we’re getting anywhere closer. I’m sure as the successful businessman you are, you’d know how important it is to abide by the contract.
