Chapter 275: That’s It!*
It was the weekend, and Thea excitedly packed her stuff that would need to be transferred to the newly renovated master bedroom. She was quite impressed with the speed of the contractors in completing it.
Jeru was out all morning for an important meeting. His assistant called, offering to send someone to help her, but she refused and told him it was not necessary because she only had a few clothes and shoes to transfer. Besides, it was her day off so she could do it by herself.
She was whistling as she packed and moved her things, feeling satisfied with how the room had turned out. Starting tonight, she and Jeru would finally share the same bed, and she could not help but feel a bit nervous.
She sat on the couch inside the master bedroom after she was done moving everything. She felt a bit tired and was just planning to rest for a bit, but ended up dozing off.
Jeru went straight back home as soon as his meeting had finished. His assistant explained that Thea had refused to have someone to help her, "Madam insisted that she would manage to do everything by herself, Sir. She also said she would not lift anything heavy."
By now, Jeru knew that even though his wife was docile most of the time, she could also be quite stubborn. So he could only shake his head and go home as soon as he could to help her. The first thing he did was go to Thea’s old room. But she was not there, so he checked their new master bedroom, where he found her sleeping on the couch.
"Tsk... She’s sleeping like a baby," Jeru whispered as he walked toward her. He paused and creased his forehead when his eyes landed on Thea’s exposed lower body. She was wearing a knee-length cotton dress, and it went up to her waist, revealing her legs and rounded hips.
He noticed Thea starting to gain weight, but he found her even sexier like that. Her body was now more shapely. He shook his head to brush off the impure thoughts and proceeded to carry Thea and moved her onto the bed. As he gently laid her down, his gaze was unconsciously fixed on Thea’s lips, and he couldn’t help but wonder if it still had the same sweet taste as the last time they kissed.
And precisely like before, as though he was standing on a magnetic field, Thea’s lips were pulling him toward it. He was leaning closer and closer but abruptly stopped when her eyes suddenly opened and were looking at him drowsily.
