Chapter 88 (1)_1
"You only woke up at eleven in the morning," Glades Horne said in his low, husky voice. He deliberately mentioned the time to tease her, then blinked his mischievous eyes at her.
"...What? It’s eleven already? Why didn’t you wake me up earlier? What will your family think of me when I go downstairs later?" Julia Bluen exclaimed softly, pushing him away forcefully and dashing towards the wardrobe nearby. However, she had only taken two steps before Glades scooped her up again.
She wanted to look away, but her eyes seemed fixed on his, unable to turn or shift, locked in a direct gaze with him. "Julia, you are my wife! No one can bully you. You don’t have to worry about being treated like a daughter-in-law from ancient times, bullied by the family elders. So don’t worry about sleeping in late and getting scolded. All you need to do is fulfill your filial duties as a daughter-in-law; you don’t need to go out of your way to please anyone," he said.
He was the true helmsman of this family, and she was his beloved wife. Naturally, he didn’t want issues like the relationship between a mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, or anything else, to affect her.
"I’m not worried; I just feel embarrassed. It’s already lunchtime, and we’ve only just woken up. It’s so mortifying. Don’t worry about me, though. You’ve known me for a while; am I someone who can’t handle relationships?" Julia Bluen replied with a laugh, touched by his words.
This man, he always thought of everything so thoroughly.
"My dear wife, don’t you know that on the first day of marriage, even if a newlywed sleeps until evening, nobody will say a word?" he added.
Was this guy intentionally trying to make her too ashamed to face anyone?
Suddenly, Julia Bluen’s stomach let out a soft rumble.
She really was hungry.
