Chapter 918:
“Mommy, I want you to shower me!”
At that moment, Miranda walked over with a smile.
“Lucas, Mrs. Wharton is tired. Shall I shower you?”
“No, I want Mommy to shower me,” Lucas said, shaking his little head.
I smiled and touched his head.
“Okay, Mommy will shower you.”
I took Lucas’s hand and led him to the bathroom. Just then, Herbert stepped forward and whispered in my ear, “I’m going upstairs to take a shower. Hurry up!”
Hearing this, I looked up and saw the playful look in Herbert’s eyes. I couldn’t help but smile.
After showering Lucas, I changed him into clean pajamas and tucked him into a warm bed.
“Good night!” I said, kissing his forehead before closing the bedroom door.
I then entered the master bedroom, and when I looked up, I saw Herbert already in his bathrobe, leaning against the headboard, waiting for me.
“Come here!” Herbert stretched out his hand toward me.
I chuckled and closed the door, but I didn’t move toward the big bed.
“Well… I’ll take a shower first.”
I touched my hair, feeling the tension in the room.
Hearing this, Herbert withdrew his hand and winked at me.
“Hurry up, I’ll wait for you.”
“Oh.”
I glanced at Herbert and quickly hid in the bathroom.
Oh god! He looked so sexy just then. It had been a few days since we were together. Why was I feeling so nervous?
I scolded myself for being so useless. I was already a mother of two children. Why was I still so shy?
After more than half an hour, I dried my hair and walked out of the bathroom in my pajamas.
Herbert tossed the book he was holding onto the bedside table.
“Come and let me have a look. Is your skin peeling?”
“Huh?”
I looked at Herbert in confusion.
“You took such a long time. I’m afraid your skin will peel after rubbing with a towel,” he said with a smile.
Was he complaining about how long I had been in the shower?
“You’re so annoying. You couldn’t even wait for me?”
I had just walked toward the bed when suddenly, he grabbed my wrist and pulled me into his arms. I wasn’t prepared for it and ended up lying on his chest. I couldn’t help but hit him lightly.
“Can’t you be gentler? I’m going to die from the bump.”
