After Marrying My Boss

Chapter 348

“I'll let you go this time because you look tired. After giving birth, you have to make it up to me.”

Upon hearing his words, I heaved a sigh of relief inwardly. Well, at least he still has some conscience and didn't throw himself on me by force.

“I got it. After giving birth, I promise I won't turn you down. Just try your best to restrain yourself during my pregnancy.”

Since he said so, it was best to call it quits, and I even made a promise to him.

Despite that, it was not what I had in my mind. After all, there were a few months left until the baby arrived. At least, he would have to abstain from doing it for the following months. By the time I gave birth, he might have already forgotten what I had said. By then, I would just ask him to control himself a little.

Michael seemed to have guessed my idea. Pursing his lips, he clearly didn't believe what I said.

“Okay, it's time to get up now, or I will not be able to control myself. Do you know that you are lying naked now? If I don't do anything to you now, I will feel sorry for myself.”

As he spoke, he lifted the blanket. Gazing at my body, he playfully squeezed my buttocks.

With that, my face turned bright red instantly. Did he just grab my butt?

I was worried that he might no longer be able to control himself, so I immediately sat up and put on my clothes while ignoring his gaze. It was already amazing that I was able to make him abstain from doing

it for the whole night. Thus, I had to be fast, or I would definitely be at his mercy again.

He couldn't help smiling as he looked at me. A cheeky glint could be seen in his eyes. I somehow felt that he had deliberately thrown such words at me.

“Michael, are you pulling my leg?”

Realizing that he was fooling me, I shot him an indignant glare.

“Does pregnancy make your brain slower? How come it took you such a long time to come to the realization?”

I couldn't see a trace of guilt in his expression even after hearing my words, and his eyes were telling me that he wanted to laugh.

“Michael, how dare you!”

I was even angrier seeing that he admitted it. Since when did he start to behave mischievously? Why do I get the feeling that he takes after Ronan now? Sure enough, people bear a resemblance to those who are blood-related.

To vent my anger, I picked up the pillow and threw it at him. Before the pillow got to him, he had already reached out to catch it. Upstodatee from Novel(D)ra/m/a.O(r)g

I had expected it anyway, so it didn't irritate me. I merely stared at him with a look of annoyance coupled with a hint of disappointment. Has he been acting like he was interested in me all this while?

I couldn't help feeling disappointed at the thought of that. I guess no woman will embrace the fact that the man she loves is not interested in her.

Seeing that the smile faded from my face, Michael raised his brows and beamed an imperceptible smile.

“What's wrong?”

His tone was gentle as he tried to please me. I should have felt happy when a nobleman like Michael tried to make me feel loved. However, the thought of everything he said was nothing but sweet talk left me in a loop of feeling let down.

“Have you lost interest in me? Do you feel nothing even if I'm naked in front of you?”

Feeling depressed, I looked into his eyes and spoke my mind. I don't know what's wrong with me. I just want to tell him how I really feel. If I don't, it will keep bothering me.

After all, we were a married couple. I could just tell him directly instead of beating around the bush.

My questions caught Michael off guard. The next second, he looked into my eyes as if trying to read my mind.

“Why would you ask me such a stupid question all of a sudden? Is my affection for you not strong enough? Can't you feel my love?”

He raised his brows as he spoke. His tone sounded easy and relaxed. Besides, he seemed to be

greatly interested in me.

“Did you put on an act just now?”

I was worried that he had just pretended to be interested in me.

“Who told you that I was acting?”

Michael seemed at a loss for words at the moment. A look of despair was on his face as he stared at me.

“It's clear that you are just acting all this while.”

I ended up losing my temper. This whole thing got on my nerves. Perhaps it was the pregnancy that changed the way I thought. If it had happened in the past, I wouldn't have thrown a tantrum because of such a trivial matter.

“Okay then. Let me show you my interest in you,” he replied helplessly.

His eyes never left me as he spoke.

I looked at him quizzically. For an instant, I couldn't make sense of what he said until he lifted the blanket and revealed his enlarged private part. My face instantly flushed bright red. It then dawned on me that this showed the “interest” in me that he was talking about earlier.

Right at this moment, his private part stood away from his body. It was clear that he had been suppressing his lust for a long time. I finally came to the realization that he did take an interest in me.

Nevertheless, he had done a great job suppressing his sexual desire. I was even under the impression that he was just faking.

“W-What're you doing? Quickly cover yourself,” I uttered those words while blushing.

It was indeed embarrassing, but I couldn't help looking at it.

“Aren't you desperate to know if I'm interested in you? You can see it to your heart's content. Of course, it would be great if you could also satisfy me.”

Ignoring what I told him, he even inched his body toward me. I knew he was just mad at my words earlier, and he deliberately wanted me to have a good look at it.

I felt like an idiot when I thought about how I lost my temper earlier. Damn it! It's indeed hundreds of times more embarrassing now that he reveals his thing in front of me. What should I do now?

“All right. I got it. I'm sorry for accusing you just now. Please cover yourself.”

My face turned redder. I let out an awkward smile, not daring to meet his gaze just yet. I must have been out of my mind. How could I even doubt that he is not interested in me?
