“I trust that you won’t break your promise. After all, you have to set a good example for our children.”
Joan’s eyes squinted and her smile curved deeper as she teased Larry.
“An outstanding man like myself would never break promises,” Larry complimented himself, to which
Joan rolled her eyes.
Realizing that neither of them had breakfast yet, she asked thoughtfully, “What do you feel like having
for breakfast? I’ll make it for you.”
“Hmm… anything?” Larry grinned slyly.
“Of course, I’m sure I can whip anything up.”
Joan puffed her chest confidently, oblivious to the fact that she had fallen into Larry’s trap.
“How about… you!” Larry’s voice boomed while he scooped Joan up and carried her back to the bed.
Joan gasped. Her face burned a tomato-red once she realized his intentions. “Put me down, it’s too
early for this!”
“It’s never too early to stretch your muscles. Don’t you agree, Mrs. Norton?”
Playful laughter rumbled from Larry as he gently laid her onto the bed.
Desire clouded his eyes as he stared intensely at Joan.
Seeing this, Joan’s heart thumped louder and wilder in her chest. She felt dizzy with shyness, but more
so with anticipation.Larry crawled toward her slowly, towering over Joan as their eyes met. Their faces were so close that
they could hear each other’s heavy breathing.
Joan exhaled. Her warm breath tingled the fine hairs on Larry’s face, driving him wild with lust.
He gazed affectionately at Joan before kissing her with an uninhibited passion. Soon, the temperature
in the room rose as romance filled the air.
An hour later, Joan lay on Larry’s chest panting while he stroked the strands of her pitch-black hair in
contentment.
“Larry, what should we name our baby?” Joan’s eyes rounded hopefully as she thought of the exciting
years to come.
He was still combing his fingers through her hair but paused to respond, ”Come now, silly. It’s still too
early to settle on a name. We should take our time to find the right one.”
“Then, do you prefer a boy or a girl?” Joan asked him seriously.
“Either is fine, as long as they’re our kids.”
Neither Larry nor his parents were biased toward having sons over daughters. Hence, Larry would love
his baby dearly, regardless of its gender.
“If it’s a boy, he has to be as exceptional as his daddy; if it’s a girl—” Joan trailed off as she fantasized
about their future.
“If it’s a girl, then she’ll be as beautiful and as kind as her mother. However, she has to inherit her
father’s intelligence, that’s not an option,” Larry finished her sentence.
Joan smiled giddily at his compliment, but that smile dropped as soon as she heard that last bit he said.“Hey! Are you calling me dumb?” Joan huffed at him.
“Well, if the shoe fits.” Larry stuck his tongue out at her.
“I’m gonna get you for this!” Joan said through gritted teeth as she pounced onto Larry.
As soon as she did, he grinned dangerously at her. She knew what was coming from the way he
wriggled his fingers.
“N-no! Don’t tickle me, don’t you dare!” Joan roared once his fingers reached the sides of her waist.
“You meanie!”
“H-hahaha, I’m sorry, I’m sorry! Please stop!” Joan begged as she squirmed around.
Helplessness filled Joan’s exhausted body. If I knew it would end like this, I wouldn’t have tried to tackle
him.
noveldramaAfter their tickle fight, Larry tensed as he brought up a serious matter.
“Joan, I need you to pack some clothes. We’re going to visit your parents and tell them about our
marriage, as well as ask for their approval.”
Although Joan accepted my proposal, I still haven’t gotten her parents’ approval yet.
“Okay, let’s go after breakfast then.”
Joan instantly agreed because she had hoped to tell her parents about the good news as soon as she
could.
“Aren’t you worried that your parents won’t approve of me or our marriage?” Larry questioned curiously
after seeing how eager Joan was.
