Chapter 110: Peaceful Intermission
The warm water of the shower felt very calming on my skin and worn-out body. I washed my hair and body, and I was feeling much better by the second. I just wanted to stand here for a while longer to feel the light pressure of the water drops against my naked skin. The sound of the running water can calm my nerves effectively.
Suddenly, the bathroom door opened. I’m very sure that I locked it when I came in. Well, I guess there isn’t a door in this house that the master of the house couldn’t unlock. Why should I be surprised? The concept of ‘private space for Natalia’ clearly did not exist in Edward’s book.
“Natalia...” Edward called my name cheerfully as he popped his head in from the doorway. Edward appeared completely naked except for a white towel wrapped around his waist.
“Why are you here?!” I screamed a little too loudly than I intended. I didn’t think my voice would echo so loudly in the bathroom. I quickly shielded my breast with my hands as I turned my body towards the wall.
“You don’t need to act like I’ve never seen you stark naked before...” Edward said amusingly.
“Why are you here?” I asked again. Actually, I wanted to shout at him to ‘get out!’
“Since you were the one who undressed me, I thought you should take responsibility by dressing me,” Edward stated with a sly grin.
“The game was your idea. Why do I need to take responsibility?” I shot back.
“You’re right, the game was my idea. The game was a treasure hunt, the treasure was in my pant’s pocket which means that you didn’t need to strip me completely naked. You see, doesn’t change the fact that you chose to stripped me,” Edward continued with his non-sense as he pouted like a spoiled kid.
