Chapter 602 - 621: Emma Campbell’s Heartache
Since getting pregnant, every time Melody Yoody has met with John Brown, she’s never fully enjoyed it. She always has to be cautious, making her feel quite uncomfortable. This time, she finally gets to truly be with John Brown and is eager to make up for all she missed during these days.
Women, especially pregnant women, often experience strong needs around three or four months. Melody Yoody is just like that. She’s been missing John Brown terribly and craving a moment of indulgence with him. So despite having other tasks today, upon seeing John Brown, she couldn’t help but send others away and seek him out.
However, both of them know, even if they can do it now, it can’t be too intense. Especially John Brown, he has to control himself, not going too deep and not using too much force. This situation leaves Melody feeling neither here nor there, quite frustrated.
But something is better than nothing. Finally, Melody feels satisfied through John Brown’s efforts and then lets him go.
"Hey, you’re just going to leave me like this?" John Brown smiles as he holds Melody Yoody.
Melody rolls her eyes at John Brown, snuggling into his embrace, lazily saying, "I’m not bothering anymore. I’m feeling particularly tired these days and don’t feel like moving. Don’t wear me out."
John Brown immediately says, "Then you can’t work like you used to, driving yourself mad. Rest when you need to. Don’t overwork yourself."
"I would love to, but you insisted on making me the Deputy County Chief. I’ve just taken over the role, there’s hardly a free moment in a day."
John Brown frowns and says, "Then let’s not do it anymore."
Melody nudges John Brown with her elbow and scolds, "You dead guy, I’m the Deputy County Chief, not an ordinary worker. How could I just quit? There are too many entanglements. Don’t worry, I have a sense of propriety. Even if I don’t care about myself, I still have to think about my child."
John Brown nods and says, "That’s good. Actually, as an official, it’s too easy to be lazy. Just have the subordinates do everything. They’d be delighted to do it for you, and we can just enjoy being in charge."
"Yeah, for now, I can only do that. But I still have to grasp the big picture. Otherwise, if these people marginalize me, it will be troublesome to regain power after having the baby."
