“You… Argh!”
Before Theresa could say anything, she was carried by Armand around her waist. Theresa punched and kicked him, but Armand was unmoved and threw Theresa onto the big soft bed. He was looking down from a height. He said as he unbuttoned his shirt, “I can’t let other people see me as a joke. You can’t go anywhere today.”
Theresa was not a little girl who had never experienced the facts of life. She knew what Armand wanted to do when she saw Armand’s posture. But just because she was too clear about what Armand wanted to do, so she was flustered.
She moved her body, “Armand, don’t be impulsive.”
It was not that she was reserved, but she was a little unprepared. After all, both of them were drunk at that time, so they didn’t feel awkward.
But this time was different. Both of them were clear-headed.
Despite her feelings for him, they had never dated formally.
Armand smiled, “You don’t have to be nervous. I’ll be gentle.”
“Armand, give me a minute to get ready.” Theresa rolled over and wanted to get up. Armand bent down, grabbed her ankle, and wrapped her leg around his waist. He got down, “We’re already husband and wife. What do you still want to think about?”
“Ar… Mm Mm…”
Armand’s kiss drowned out Theresa’s words.
Outside the room, Boyce stroked Samuel’s head, “Samuel, you were too kind today. Armand didn’t suffer. You should make things more difficult for him in order to teach him the value of preciousness.”
Samuel raised his head and looked at Boyce, “Are you jealous?”
Boyce was speechless.
He raised his eyebrows, “Why am I jealous?”
“Because you are the only one who doesn’t have a wife.”
Boyce was speechless.
“You brat, you dare to make fun of me.” Boyce pretended to want to pull Samuel’s ear. Samuel reacted quickly and dashed away immediately.
Loredana brought her daughter, and when they were ready to go back to their room, Mrs. Leslie had completed all of the matters downstairs and went upstairs. When she saw Simona, her eyes narrowed, “This girl is too pretty, like her mother.”
Because she was praised by Mrs. Leslie, Simona greeted Mrs. Leslie with a smile, “Hello, Mrs. Leslie.”
Loredana quickly corrected her daughter. The seniority of the family would be messed up if she called like this. She squatted down and told her daughter, “I can call her Mrs. Leslie, and you have to call her Madam Leslie.”
Simona looked half-understood and asked, “I have to call her as Madam Leslie, is it right?”
Loredana nodded, “Yes.”
Simona turned her head and looked at Mrs. Leslie. She spoke so sweet as if she had wiped honey on her lips, “Hello Madam Leslie.”
“Hello.” Mrs. Leslie’s heart was about to be melted by Simona. She held Simona’s hand, “Simona, can I
invite you to my room?”
Mrs. Leslie was getting on in years. Although she didn’t have to do anything for the wedding, she was still worried about a lot of things. She had just finished settling the things at the wedding site. She was exhausted and wanted to rest. But in this place that she was unfamiliar with, she wanted to find someone to talk to, but everybody seemed to be busy. She saw Simona and thought that Simona was adorable and wanted to spend some time with her.
The older a person gets, the more afraid he or she is of loneliness.
“Sure,” Simona answered without hesitation. She held Mrs. Leslie to go inside the room. Loredana followed them as well. They were not sure where Samuel and Boyce were playing right now. To see Loredana more, Maxina also followed them into the room.
Loredana poured water for Mrs. Leslie, “You must be tired today.”
Mrs. Leslie smiled, Armand could marry successfully, and it was alright to be a little tired. “I’m getting on with age, and I’m good for nothing already.”
“Your body is still healthy. You’re not old.” Loredana placed the glass in front of Mrs. Leslie.
Mrs. Leslie held Loredana’ hand, “I heard that Theresa is close with you?”
Loredana nodded honestly, “We’ve known each other for a few years already, and we’re like family.”
Mrs. Leslie nodded, “Armand is not a bad kid. He had been hurt by someone, and he was unable to get over it for quite a long time. There were women by his side at times, but he was never serious about it.
This time, I’m happy that he can get married. I also quite like Theresa. She appears to be a very kind person. I just hope that Armand will not be befuddled and can live his life with her. I’ll be satisfied if they can have a child like Simona after a year or so.”
Loredana didn’t realize that there was a hidden meaning behind Mrs. Leslie’s words. She thought she was just lamenting and comforted her and said, “They’re going to be fine and going to have kids too.
Mrs. Leslie will be very busy at that time.”
Mrs. Leslie smiled, “I hope things will go as you say.”
Maxina sat aside, reading financial news using his phone. He was not interested in this kind of topic.
Mrs. Leslie talked with Simona, “Simona, how old are you?”
“I’m five years old, and I’ll turn six after Chinese New Year,” Simona answered honestly.
Mrs. Leslie smiled, “Time had flown by.”
She hadn’t heard from them before, and she had grown up so much.
Loredana leaned against the sofa to watch and listen to them talking.
Simona was talkative also. She had a lot of weird questions for Mrs. Leslie, such as, “Madam Leslie, what does it mean to get married?”
Then Mrs. Leslie patiently explained to her, “Getting married is when a man and a woman decide to build a family together. This is marriage.”
Simona rolled her eyes, “Has Madam Leslie ever married?”
Mrs. Leslie answered with a smile, “Of course, I had gotten married.”
“Then whom did you marry?” Simona asked.
“He is, of course, Armand’s grandfather.”
“Will I be able to marry when I’ve grown up?”
After Simona asked this question, Maxina, who was watching his phone all the time, raised his head.
