Warm Married Life: Mr. President Loves His Darling Wife

Chapter 374 - 373: Why Are You Still So Shy

Bella Acker thought about how he got up early to go to work at the company, then rushed over to pick her up, and accompanied her back to the welfare home to see Aunt Sienna and Ethan. He even played a word recognition game with Ethan just now, so maybe he’s already quite tired.

"Okay." Damian nodded, "You keep me company."

"I’m not sleepy at all." Bella Acker had slept all the way back from the shooting base and felt very refreshed, not sleepy at all.

"If you don’t sleep, why should I?" Damian raised an eyebrow at her.

Bella Acker didn’t get what he meant, "You’re not Ethan. You need to be coaxed to sleep. Just go to sleep yourself."

Seeing that she completely missed the point, Damian simply stepped forward, approached her, and whispered, "Honey, I’m saying, if you don’t sleep, who will sleep with me?"

This time he made it clear, and Bella Acker not only understood but also blushed, "You..."

Damian raised an eyebrow at her, his eyes deep.

With a flushed face, Bella Acker whispered, "The soundproofing here is poor, Aunt Sienna and Ethan will hear."

"I can be quieter," Damian said.

Bella Acker’s face turned redder. She truly didn’t understand how thick Damian’s skin must be to say something like that without blushing or getting breathless.

"No way, you go to sleep yourself, Aunt Sienna must have already prepared a clean quilt." With that, she tried to escape.

Damian grabbed her wrist, pulling her into his embrace and whispered, "If you don’t come upstairs with me, I’ll kiss you right here."

"You’re being a rogue!" Bella Acker accused, her face all red.

"I’m only a rogue to you," Damian said. "If you don’t agree, I’ll kiss you."

Would this count as a sort of love talk?

"Stop, no kissing here!" Bella Acker raised her hand to cover his mouth, her face blushing as she said, "I’ll go up with you, but you must promise not to misbehave, okay?"

"Mm."

Hearing his response, Bella Acker gently struggled to get out of his embrace, but after a few attempts, he hadn’t let go a bit. Instead, he held her even tighter.

Bella Acker glared at him, "How can I go up with you if you don’t let go? Do you want me to go with you or not?"

Only then did Damian release her waist without further force.

Once free, Bella Acker grabbed his hand and quickly led him upstairs, fearing he might pull some shameless move again. If Aunt Sienna walked in on them, it would be utterly embarrassing.

Damian let her lead him by the hand up to the attic. Walking behind her, he watched as her ears turned a bright red and his eyes gradually filled with amusement.

Hearing his low laughter, Bella Acker led him into the attic room, only then turning to glare at him, pouting, "You’re still laughing! Damian, don’t you feel embarrassed?"

Damian’s eyes contained laughter as he pulled her close and softly asked, "Embarrassed about what?"

"You know exactly what I mean." Bella Acker glared at him with a blush, thinking that this man’s skin was indeed invincibly thick. People say city walls aren’t as thick as his skin.

"Honey, after all this time, why are you still so shy?" Damian wrapped his arms around her waist, asking softly.

They had been living together for over five years. Even though the first few years were simply cohabiting, in the last more than a year, they had a lot of intimate contact. Still, she blushed at every tease.

But he did enjoy her shy demeanor very much.

"You think everyone has such a thick skin like you." Bella Acker propped her hands against his chest, blushing as she put a bit of distance between them.
