His Eagle Eyes on Me
Chapter 3050

Inside the tent, Shelly swatted a mosquito, and Hayden handed her a wet tissue to clean her hands.

After Shelly wiped her hands clean, she asked if he had any trash for her to throw away on her way out. Hayden silently watched her without saying a word.

Shelly did not know what he was thinking, so she sat there without moving.

She had a feeling that something was about to happen and felt a mix of anticipation and nervousness.

From her understanding of Hayden's character, she did not think he was the proactive type.

Growing up, he had easily obtained whatever he wanted, so there was never a need for him to take the initiative.

Shelly herself was not particularly proactive either, but when faced with enough temptation, she could throw caution to the wind, just like how she did the first night she met Hayden. After a moment of hesitation, Shelly leaned in and kissed Hayden.

His lips were slightly cool and carried the faint scent of toothpaste.

Once their lips touched, Hayden's body stiffened for a moment before relaxing as his hand cradled the back of her head, securing it in place.

Soon, the kiss deepened.

...

After a while, Hayden looked at the woman beneath him dazedly and asked, "Are you on birth control?"

Shelly paused for a moment before coming back to her senses. "No..."

Upon receiving her answer, the desire in Hayden's eyes gradually faded. As he prepared to move away, Shelly wrapped her arms around his neck, not wanting him to leave. "I want to cuddle for a while, is that okay?"

Usually, when they were together, there was always a sense of distance because they were not truly familiar with each other.

Their children had been what

brought them together all along and

since the children were not around

at the moment, Shelly wanted to treasure this moment of them being together.

Worried about potentially hurting her, Hayden shifted their positions, allowing her to rest on top of him and Shelly blushed shyly.

"Hayden, if I didn't initiate the kiss just now, would you have kissed me?" Hayden buried his head into the crook of her neck, and she could feel his breath on her skin.

She desperately wanted to know the answer to this question.

After a few seconds of silence, Hayden replied, "I was considering if doing so in this environment was appropriate."

Shelly could not help but laugh. "Real couples can do it anywhere." She did not have the courage to finish her sentence, worrying that it would make her sound like she knew a lot if she did; in reality, her romantic experience was limited to Hayden and no one else.

"Apart from the environment, I was also concerned about contraceptive measures," he added.

Shelly blushed. "Are you that confident that I would be willing to... be intimate with you?"

Hayden looked up and studied her face. "I thought you said you like me?"

Shelly recalled saying such a thing.

"You won't play hard to get with me, right, Shelly?" he asked.

She chuckled. "Do I look like I have the patience for that?"

Hayden sighed a breath of relief. "I need a wife and my children need a mother might not know much about you yet, but I'm confident that we will form a pretty great family. What do you think?"

Shelly listened closely to every word he said and stared into his eyes, knowing that Hayden was proposing to her.
