Chapter 773
Ken Swanson’s voice sounded.
“What’s this?”
Melody looked over in confusion.
Although the lights were off, she could clearly see a rose petal between Ken Swanson’s fingers under the bright moonlight.
Her face turned red.
“I…-I don’t know…”
“Is that so?”.
Ken Swanson brought the petal to his nose and sniffed it. It still had the fragrance of roses, and there was no smell of corruption. Clearly, it was a fresh rose.
Ken Swanson: Have You Never Seen a Pig Run Before? He instantly understood where the petals came from.
He curved his lips and moved behind Melody Fox. He held her waist with one hand and asked in a low voice, “At least wait until I’ve seen it before dealing with it. Otherwise, wouldn’t it be for nothing?”
Melody’s face instantly burned. She stammered and pretended to be confused-
“What did you set up for nothing? I really don’t understand what you’re talking about.”
Ken Swanson chuckled softly.
“Alright, since you’re shy, I won’t tease you anymore.”
As he spoke, he slowly hugged Melody Fox even tighter.
Melody was lying with his back facing him. He simply buried his entire face in the back of her neck.
In that manner, her fragrance filled his nose.
Most women smelled like perfume, but Melody Fox was different. She smelled like herbal medicine ingredients. Some people did not like this smell, but he liked it very much. When he smelled it, he felt as if his heart, which was originally riddled with holes, had been healed.
However, when a man and woman of this age were lying on the same bed, their ears were filled with the sound of the waves hitting the reefs. Some things gradually changed. Melody was the first to notice that Ken Swanson’s body was getting hotter and hotter, especially where the two of them were tightly pressed together. Through the thin layer of clothes, Ken Swanson’s body temperature directly passed through.
A man’s temperature was slightly higher than a woman’s, and it was even more so under such circumstances.
Melody Fox subconsciously wanted to break free from his embrace, but he was stopped by Ken Swanson’s rough voice.
“Don’t move…”
He was a very restrained person, especially when it came to matters between men and women.
However, as long as the other party was Melody Fox, he would be utterly defeated.
He clearly didn’t do anything. He was just hugging her. How did things go beyond his control?
Could it be that he was just like Sid Quant, an animal that thought with its lower body?
In Silverlake, Sid who was far away from Ken Swanson, suddenly sneezed in the middle of the night.
Who was scolding him?
Minutes passed, but the heat in Ken Swanson’s heart & body did not dissipate.
He retracted his hand from Melody’s waist and wiped the sweat off his forehead. “Go to sleep first. I’m going to take a shower.”
Melody was someone who had lived two lives. How could she not understand what it meant for someone who had already taken a shower once to suggest taking a shower?
Under the moonlight, she saw that he seemed to be having a hard time holding it in.
Just as Ken Swanson sat up on the bed alone, she suddenly mustered up a huge amount of courage and grabbed his hand.
“What’s wrong?” He looked at her in confusion, thinking she didn’t want to sleep alone. “I’ll be ready in five minutes,” he said quickly. “I’ll be back in five.”
“No…” Melody shook her head and said with an unprecedented serious expression, “You don’t have to take a shower. I… I’m ready this time.”
She knew that this matter was the last hurdle in her heart.
If she did not cross over, the knot in her heart would never be untied.
If she wanted to undo it, she had to be braver.
Ken Swanson was stunned for a few seconds before he realized what Melody had just said.
The huge surprise almost made him think that he was hallucinating.
His eyes were filled with disbelief.
“Are… are you serious?”
“Yes.” Melody was too embarrassed to look at Ken Swanson. She looked away and said, “I’m ready.”
The surprise came too suddenly. Ken Swanson could not help but confirm again.
“Are you sure? Do you know what you’re saying now? This kind of thing… There’s no turning back. I won’t agree to it if I regret it.”
“Don’t worry, I know what I’m talking about.”
Ken Swanson finally confirmed that Melody Fox had really agreed to be his legitimate wife.
On their wedding night, every moment was worth a thousand gold.
Ken Swanson did not waste any more seconds. He reached out with his long hands and pulled her into his arms.
He bowed and kissed her lips lovingly and tenderly.
The moon was bright and the stars were sparse.
At night, the seawater surged, and the sound of waves hitting the reefs came from outside the window, drowning in the boundless night.
***
In the blink of an eye, it was the next day. Melody Fox was awakened by thirst.
Last night was their wedding night.
Ken Swanson’s Fox had clearly been busy at the company for the entire day. In the afternoon, he had been struggling between Silverlake and Lincheng. Logically speaking, his stamina should have been almost exhausted.
However, he still seemed to have endless strength. He tortured her until the sun rose in the sky and only let her go when she begged for mercy.
Even so, he still went to take a cold shower before calming down. It could be seen that he was talented.
However, she was not keen on an affair between a man and a woman. Such a talent was a stressful thing for her.
Although Melody was thirsty, she still did not want to open her eyes.
She was really too tired, and her entire body felt like it was falling apart.
At that instant, a familiar voice suddenly sounded in her ears-
“You’re awake? Do you want something to eat for breakfast?”
Melody suddenly opened her eyes and looked at her side in disbelief.
Ken Swanson was bare-chested. He supported his head with one hand and looked at her deeply. It was unknown how long he had been looking at her and maintaining this posture.
“W-why are you still here? What time is it?”
She hurriedly looked at the clock on the wall and saw that it was already past nine in the morning. “Oh no, you’re late…”
She subconsciously wanted to sit up, but there was a fine pain under her.
“Hiss-“
Her face instantly turned pale and she subconsciously sucked in a breath of cold air.
“What’s wrong? Does it still hurt?”
Ken Swanson leaned forward with a concerned expression and tried to pull the blanket away for her.
“What are you doing…” She quickly pulled the blanket over herself, her expression wary.
“I’ll take a look for you.”
“Look… Look at your head!” Melody Fox raised her hand and knocked Ken Swanson’s head.
However, Ken Swanson had a look of enjoyment on his face.
“If it makes you feel better to hit me, then go ahead.”
Although it hurt, he was willing to do it.
Melody glared at Ken Swanson again. She did not even bother to hit him.
She tried her best to ignore the pain beneath her and asked about serious matters.
“You’re clearly awake. Why aren’t you at the airport? Aren’t you afraid of being late? How are you going to explain to the company?”
However, Ken Swanson was still indecent. He hugged her waist and said, “I’m not even afraid. What are you afraid of?” Melody pushed him away and said angrily, “Can you be more normal? I’m talking about serious matters with you!” Ken Swanson probably saw that she was really a little annoyed, so he said seriously, “I’ve already arranged for the company. Silverlake will only think that I’m going to the construction site for an inspection and will only return to the company in the afternoon, so you don’t have to worry. As for why I’m not going to the airport…”
