225

Danielle moved fast. By the time Mona and Maxwell returned to the hotel. Twitter was already in an uproar.

But since Mona and Maxwell hadn't checked their phones, they had no idea.

After returning to the hotel, Mona went to the bathroom to take shower and changed into some comfortable pajamas.

When she came out, she happened to see Maxwell returning from the bathroom next door, wearing only a short. Water droplets clung to the tips of his hair, running down from his neck to his defined abs. While Maxwell was wiping himself down with a towel, the white light shone on him, creating a hazy sense of comfort.

Mona silently complained in his heart. Seriously? Stepping out like this is such a visual shock. This is definitely a handsome man after a bath!

If she could endure it and not make a move, then this person was not her husband.

She reached out with her delicate fingers, lightly trailing up Maxwell's chest. Each touch was gentle, like a feather, causing his breathing to momentarily stumble. He looked at Mona with intense, sparkling eyes. Looking at Mona's enchanting eyes and brows, Maxwell thought that his wife was truly a charming little enchantress, nearly stealing his soul away.

Just as Moria's fingers were about to touch Maxwell's Adam's apple, he reached out and grabbed her wandering hand. With slightly hurried breaths, he said, "Mona, if you move again, you won't be sleeping tonight." Upon hearing this, Mona realized it was clearly a threat.

If she obeyed him, she might not have any standing in this household anymore.

His threat only sparked Mona's little temper. Not only did she brush against his Adam's apple, but she also playfully bit down on Maxwell's shoulder.

It wasn't too light or too heavy, just enough for Maxwell to feel a sharp pain.

Mona clearly heard Maxwell's hiss. She said, "You don't let me move!"

Before she could finish her words, Maxwell had kissed her lips, tasting fresh mint. Both of her wrists were held above her head by a large hand, and she was unaware of when a hot hand had wrapped around her waist. "Maxwell, tonight won't work! Don't you remember? I might already be carrying your child," Mona quickly said, smiling as she seized the moment. She was worried that if she hesitated for even a second, she wouldn't be able to say it at all. Even though

she wasn't sure if it was true, she said it just in case

After hearing Mona's words, Maxwell leaned down and fiercely kissed her lips, a gesture filled with a sense of punishment

"Mona, then why do you keep teasing me?" Maxwell said, sounding a bit hurt, his charming eyes meeting hers. For the sake of their future child, he had to bear the discomfort himself.

"Didn't you tease me first? You're not even wearing a shirt. Mona pointed at Maxwell's exposed chest.

But seeing Maxwell's aggrieved expression, Mona felt like she might have gone a bit too far.

It was clearly her fault for walking out of the bathroom and seeing such a tempting sight.

"Then, how about I help you?" Mona suggested, looking at her delicate hands.

Chapter 223

She wasn't sure if she was pregnant, but just to be safe, she decided to suffer a bit tonight.

"Yeah, I need your help.

After saying that, Maxwell picked up Mona and walked into the bathroom, a smile spreading across his lips.

In front of his wife, he had to show weakness and act a bit aggrieved. That was the way to get what he wanted..

Mona looked at her neatly worn pajamas and thought that her shower had been in vain.

She suddenly felt regretful. Usually, she didn't do much, and Maxwell loved to pull her into those kinds of things. Today, she had to take the initiative to touch his abs, and she didn't know how long it would be before she could escape.. It was a long night.

As expected, the shower took a lot longer than Mona expected. By the end, her hands felt numb, and her legs were tired. Except for the final step. Maxwell had really worn her out from start to finish.

By the time Maxwell helped her wash her hands, Mona felt like she could hardly stand.

Now, after a satisfying activity, Maxwell had returned to being the caring husband. He gently placed Mona on the bed, brought her a glass of warm water, and thoughtfully handed her the phone. The only thing left was to feed the water to Mona. But if she asked, Maxwell would gladly do it.

Mona casually wore one of Maxwell's shirts, leaving a couple of buttons undone. This revealed her charming collarbone, which had fresh kiss marks on it.

Mona took a couple of small sips of water before handing the glass back to Maxwell, weakly saying, "I don't want to drink anymore."

"Okay, let's take a break. Let's see if you dare to tease me again next time," Maxwell said playfully.

But his tone sounded so annoying.

At that moment, Mona felt like she was seeing Maxwell from their high school days, the one who used to pull her braids and pinch her cheeks every day.

When she came to her senses, she immediately threw a pillow at him. "Maxwell, can't you just disappear!*

Mona wasn't very strong, and since it was just a pillow, when it hit Maxwell, it felt soft and ticklish against him.

After being hit, Maxwell wasn't angry. He bent down, picked up the pillow from the white carpet, and calmly placed it in front of Mona.

"Mona, after that hit, do you feel stronger now?" Maxwell said, running his hand through Mona's soft hair a few times. Mona had to admit that shouting at Maxwell like that did ease a lot of her inner fatigue.

She raised her small fist and waved it in front of Maxwell, saying "I really do have some strength now. Do you want to try my power again?"

The strength she was talking about was naturally the strength of her fists.

Maxwell's hand instantly enveloped Mona's small hand, slowly intertwining their fingers. "Wait for the next time to try it You should rest well while I clean up the bathroom," he said. 07:16 Thu, Nov 7

Chapter 225

After Maxwell left, Mom slumped onto the bed, arranging herself in whatever position felt the most comfortable.

She casually picked up her phone and noticed that her friends' group chat was blowing up again.

96%E

As soon as she opened it, she saw a message from Ava: [Where the heck is Mona? We've been trying to reach her for so long. and she still hasn't shown up!!

Then, she saw a message from Artemis in their chat.

[These days, after I finish filming a scene, I instinctively check my phone. Mona hasn't been online for several hours, so she must be cuddling with her husband, doing something embarrassing.]
