Chapter 127

That was too much of Grandma! Why did she have to do that?

It was rare for her to finally show some concern for her grandson; when she finally did, it had to be a scheme against him.

No wonder Theodore pounced on Rosalie the moment she entered the room. He was a hot-blooded young man who had just had some soup with aphrodisiac effects. No wonder he felt the urges! Theodore was worried that he might act rashly and fail to hold himself back, which explained why he flung her hands away. As it turned out, she had misunderstood him.

The pained expression on his face made Rosalie ask in a soft voice, Then... What should we do now?"

Under such circumstances, it seemed as though having sex was the only way to bring him relief. But given their situation right now, they couldn't behave as they did in the past.

To make matters worse, she was pregnant right now.

"I'll take a cold shower."

Theodore stood up, and headed to the washroom.

Thinking about her misunderstanding him, Rosalie felt guilty. She left the room and went to the kitchen, where she prepared some ice cubes in a container.

Suddenly, a voice sounded from behind her.

"Madam, you're still awake at this hour."

Rosalie's heart thumped as she turned around, and stuttered, "Zane, you...you're still awake, too."

"I came out to see if there's any area that you didn't manage to clean up. Why do you need so many ice cubes?"

With a guilty conscience, Rosalie wondered if Zane realized that he had lost a key from his room.

He was probably also aware that Theodore just had a big bowl of aphrodisiac soup, and was suffering from the effects of it right now.

It was suspicious of her to be getting some ice cubes. She couldn't. possibly explain that they were to help lower his temperature because. she didn't allow him to touch her, could she? After considering her options, Rosalie said coyly, "Zane, this is something private between me and Theodore. Please don't ask about it any further. I feel shy talking about it."

"Oh." Zane smiled awkwardly as he nodded. "Pardon me, Madam. Please go ahead."

He immediately stepped aside, and gave way to her.

Rosalie walked past him with her ice cubes container in hand.

"Oh yes, Zane..." She stopped to turn around and say, "Do turn in early. Theodore and I will feel shy if there are still people awake in the house."

She was worried that Zane might go to his workroom and realize that the key was missing, and look around for it. It would be terrible if Grandma were to replace out.

Zane nodded in acknowledgement. "Yes, Madam. I'll turn in immediately."

Rosalie returned to the room with the ice cubes in hand. She walked to the washroom door, and could almost hear him panting inside.

She raised a hand, and knocked on the door.

"Theodore," she called out.

"What's the matter?" He sounded as though he was suppressing something.

"I brought a container of ice cubes for you. It might make you feel better."

She knocked on the door again when she received no reply." Theodore?"

Rosalie panicked, worried that something might have happened to him. She opened the door, and saw his entire body in the water.

Frightened, she immediately placed the container on the floor before pulling Theodore out of the water.

His face emerged from the water with a splash. He wiped the drops. of water away from his face, and glared at her with a frightening expression. "What are you doing?"

"What are you doing? Why are you drowning yourself in the tub?"

"I'm trying to lower my body temperature, what else?"

Did she think that he was trying to drown himself?

The water in the tub was very clear, and Rosalie could see everything in it. When her gaze landed on his body, she looked away, her cheeks blushing a bright red.

In her panic, she quickly picked up the container of ice cubes from the floor and handed it to him.

"These are ice cubes. Eat some, or rub them on your body. I'll leave them to you."
