Chapter 506 – Second Chance Love of the Missing Groom Novel

Lulu was arranging some flowers a friend sent into a vase and dressed casually.

She turned around. “Yes, we should. Have you thought of any?’

That never crossed her mind, whereas Martin had already had come up with a truckload, though he was worried if Lulu would like it.

Still, he stayed quiet.

Walking up to his bed, Lulu asked, “Are you getting distant with me now?”

“No way.’ Martin denied it.

“You are,” she arched her back to stare him straight in the eye. “You never thought of anything and can’t come up with any on the spot. Is that why you’re being silent?”

“I actually did,’ Martin answered a little too quickly and realized so soon after.

Smiling, he said, “Forget it. Punish me all you want.”

Lulu smiled, her eyes arching into crescents. ‘I get it. You’re the only one who accommodates me.”

Martin smiled in return, and said, “Well, let’s name her Jean. How about that?”

Lulu nodded repeatedly. “I like it. Jean York-it has a good ring to it.”

Martin was taken aback. “Jean York?”

“Of course! Why not? You’re her daddy!”

“I thought…”

“You thought what?” Lulu’s expression was suddenly dead serious!

Martin quickly averted his eyes. “Nothing.”

Lulu certainly doubted that and reached out to turn his face so that he faced her directly. “Tell me. What was that about?”

Martin came clean right then. “Well, you know who the father is. I won’t mind if you want Jean to be named after him…”

Lulu glowered right then and turned to leave the room.

For some reason, her heart hurt.

Martin followed her outside. “Are you upset?”

Lulu kept her back to him. “No.”

“You are,” Martin said, exposing her right then.

Lulu said nothing to that and kept her gaze lowered.

Martin walked up in turn and wrapped his arms tightly around her waist from behind, and he brushed his cheek against hers. “I misspoke. Please don’t get angry, alright?”

Lulu pursed her lips and turned to face him. “I’m not that cold, Martin. I know you’ve been good to me, so why would you mention him?”

“I was just trying to say that I’d respect whatever you decide on. I wasn’t deliberately mentioning it to upset you,” Martin explained, and added apologetically, “I’m sorry-“

He was cut off mid-sentence as Lulu suddenly kissed him.

Taken aback, he was left staring blankly at her as she put her arms around his neck and went deeper with her kiss!

Martin’s hands remained at her waist, breathing in her faint sweetness and that tinge of milky smell.

He did not move, however-it was not as if he did not want to respond, but he was not sure if Lulu was mentally prepared.

And he was certainly worried that he would not be able to hold back once he got in the mood!

Meanwhile, Lulu kissed him until her lips went numb, only for him to not react at all.

She slowly pulled away from her lips, not quite understanding what Martin’s intentions were. “Don’t you want to consummate our relationship?”

Martin pursed his lips and gulped.

“I’m really into you,” he said. “There’s no way I wouldn’t want that. In fact, I’m restraining myself every moment I’m with you, but I can’t do it when you’re not ready. I don’t want you to think…”

Pausing as if to find the right words, he continued, “I just didn’t want you to think that I was helping you just to sleep with you. I would scream how much I love you if I could, but I won’t until you’re ready to accept me, let alone do anything that makes you feel uncomfortable.”

Lulu threw herself into his arms then, keeping her head lowered as her tears gushed. “You big dummy.”

Martin held her in return. “I just want to take good care of you, so that you won’t have to suffer from now on.”

Lulu sniffled and looked up at him with tears in her eyes. “Do I look like I’m suffering?”

“I mean, I can improve on my shortcomings from now on,” Martin said seriously. “You just have to tell me-“

She laughed. “You’re making me feel as if I’m charmless as a woman.”

Their eyes met, and the room was suddenly silent, as if even air itself had turned still.

Even their breaths could be heard with such clarity!

And in the very next instant, Martin leaned in and kissed her ferociously.

He was so forceful that Lulu frowned from the pain the instant he kissed her, but she embraced him nonetheless.

The kiss grew in passion, as they seemed to be secreting copious amounts of dopamine into each other!

Martin kept kissing Lulu as he moved her to the couch, inadvertently knocking off a box nearby.

They had put the many gifts they received from their colleagues during Jean’s christening in the living room beside the couch.

Lulu turned toward the box.

Before she could reach it, however, Martin scooped her up in his arms, put her on the couch, and moved on top of her!

As Martin’s hands reached underneath her blouse, Lulu clearly felt the coarse skin on his fingers. There were thick calluses growing over his right index finger from frequently wielding a gun.

And with every inch his fingers moved upward, she seemed to shudder more.

Soon, her clothes were off, baring her fair, delicate skin.

She retained her figure and remained slim despite her recent pregnancy, although her belly was still a little flabby. It has been little over a month since she gave birth, and she would not recover that quickly.

Not wanting Martin to see it, she rested her hands over it.

Martin sensed her intention but for him, loving someone meant loving every part of her-be it her strengths or shortcomings.

They were all things he liked about her from his perspective.

He touched her cheek gently and rasped, “I don’t mind.”

Lulu refused to let go, however. “I…”

Martin pulled her hands off then and leaned in to kiss her belly.

Lulu bit her lip, and the rest was history.

However, she cried when their bodies became one.

She did not know why she would shed tears.

Maybe she was being emotional?

Whether it was that or something else, Lulu could not put her finger on it. All she knew was that this was the most unrestrained she had ever been.

She did not feel ashamed or reserved as she got dirty and sweaty with Martin!

They did it everywhere too, starting from the living room and moving to the bathroom, the bedroom, and to the kitchen. It was as if they wanted to leave a mark in every corner in the house, as they did it countless times, and each round lasted quite a while too! 1

When the skies went dark outside, they fell asleep in each other’s arms, exhausted.

Lulu slept like a log, until she vaguely heard Jean crying.

Still, she saw Martin warming up a bottle of milk as she slowly opened her eyes.

Her breast milk was not filling enough, so they usually went with both.

Still weary, she asked softly, “Do you need help?”

“It’s fine. You can stay in bed!”

Soon, Martin had warmed the milk and fed little Jean, and she stopped crying immediately.

Finding ease of mind just then, Lulu tossed around, her blanket slipping off her shoulders and revealing her fair shoulders.

However, there were plenty of red marks over it left by Martin, i

After a while, Jean fell asleep after finishing her milk.

Martin changed her diapers and gently laid her in her crib, getting ease of mind from seeing her sleeping soundly.

Walking back to bed, he slid under the blanket to hug Lulu around the waist from behind. “Thirsty?”

“No,” Lulu replied, feeling too sleepy to bother with anything else.

Her eyes were still closed as Martin’s hand slowly moved up, and she was lactating a little since she did not feed Jean just now.

Martin felt the wetness and turned to get some tissues to wipe it for her.

Still, her body was too tempting and he ended up giving it a small peck.

Lulu opened her eyes right then, her body stiffening as she rasped, “Aren’t you tired?”

“Nope,” Martin murmured softly, and they ended up doing it again.

While they did, she ran her fingers over his scar and said, “You haven’t fully recovered. You shouldn’t let loose like this…”

“Yeah,” he grunted, but his hips were not stopping.

Lulu was eventually left completely limp from the strenuous activity. She felt sore and pain below the waist, while her whole body was sticky and wet.

However, she had no strength to resist, and all she wanted to do was sleep.

The morning arrived, and a narrow ray of sunshine seeped through the curtains, illuminating the bed!

The clock was ticking, and Lulu frowned as she slowly opened her eyes.

She found herself staring into Martin’s obsidian gaze right then!

Lulu felt her head clearing right then and asked with a hoarse voice, “What time is it?”

“Ten,’ Martin replied.

That late?!

Lulu promptly got up to check on her daughter. But when she did so, her blanket slipped off and bore her naked form, leaving her taken aback.

It was only then that she remembered what happened last night, and she blushed slightly.

Martin draped her pajamas over her shoulders. “Get washed up. Well eat together.”

Lulu nodded, and he got out of bed.
