Chapter 13: 13. Messed-up Plan

The heat in William’s room began to cool. Paula leaned against William’s sturdy shoulder. She fiddled with her husband’s chest because she didn’t know what to do. The unpleasant incident that she had just experienced made her rethink his reckless decision.

“Why did you cancel the contract with Martin?” asked Paula with a slightly disappointed look on her face. “He is a jerk, but his money is the matter.”

William inhaled the sweet scent of her hair and replied, “I don’t want to do business with a bastard who almost touches my wife. Where is my dignity as a husband?”

“But he didn’t do it, William! Where else are you going to find a filthy rich client like him shortly?” Paula was still in denial, making William flabbergasted.

“Seriously, are you okay with that? Because I am not,” William exclaimed. “This time he didn’t do it. How about later?”

William still felt sorry for wasting time with a dirty man like Martin. It was better for him to lose a client like Martin than to risk his wife’s safety.

“What kind of man wants his wife to be touched by another man? If any, it wouldn’t be me!” William added again in a bland voice, glaring at Paula. Their eyes met as their heart clenched for unknown reasons.

.....

Paula’s heart skipped a beat. She knew William was only doing this to fulfill his duty as a husband. However, she couldn’t fight the strange feeling welling up inside her stomach at this moment. She was afraid that her feelings toward him started to grow.

Paula realized that she had to keep her promise about a relationship that didn’t involve feelings between them. She cleared her throat a little loudly and pulled away from William’s arms. Her face was troubled and uneasy, making William mistakenly take that as a disappointment.

“Paula, I’m sorry! I didn’t mean to waste your efforts,” William said as he stopped Paula from getting out of bed. However, she just stared at him without any explanation and let her husband misunderstand. She quickly left him and went to the bathroom to clean up.

“Paula!” William kept calling in a pitiful tone, making Paula’s heart feel even tighter.

Paula let the hot water touch her body. It made her head relax a bit. Brushing her dark thought, she shook her head as she said, “This must be just a fleeting feeling. I can’t have feelings for him.”

The water gushing from the shower again caressed Paula’s white skin, which was smooth as porcelain. Little by little, she powered up the water jet, trying to get rid of the feeling of his touches on her body.

A fatal error occurred. William’s sneaky fingers didn’t only touch her skin but also penetrated her heart.

***

William thought Paula was still angry with him. He tried to win Paula’s heart by making a special breakfast this morning. His signature chocolate pancake was always praised by his friends-and also Lea.

The smell of chocolate combined with butter made Paula’s nostrils couldn’t help but tingling. Her rumbling stomach demanded to be treated immediately. Although she was already dressed up and was about to go to the office, she couldn’t help coming to the kitchen.

She didn’t intend to have breakfast at home. She didn’t even want to spend any more time with William, knowing that her defenses were currently weak. To make matters worse, all her plans were about to fail miserably. But, her determination was only redeemed cheaply by a pile of chocolate pancakes topped with chocolate, cheese, and butter served on the dining table. Tempting.

Paula gulped, seeing the dazzling sight before her eyes. Not only did the pancakes look tempting, but the cook who served them also looked even more edible because he was on his knee-length training pants, hanging too low around his waist.

So sexy! Super-duper sexy!

William who saw Paula’s reaction smiled triumphantly. “Look, stop sulking! Have breakfast while the pancakes are still warm!” William’s palms spread, showing his masterpiece.

Surely, Paula could no longer stand the sinful temptation anymore. However, a sense of prestige held her back. Finally, William pulled her to a chair and sat her ass down. Meanwhile, He took a fork for her, cut the pancake, and tried to shove a slice of the calorie-filled fluffy stuff into her mouth.

“Aaaa ...,” William asked her to open her mouth as if he was feeding a toddler.

“Ugh, what the hell!” Paula was annoyed, slapping William’s bare chest with her handbag.

“I don’t know if you hesitate to eat it because you are still mad at me or because you are afraid of getting fat. However, if the reason is because of calories, I will gladly drain it after you finish this breakfast,” William whispered with darkening eyes gazing intently at her.

Paula’s face heated up. She reached for the plate of pancakes, pulled it closer, and ate it greedily. “Who said I was afraid of getting fat?” She pursed her lips, making him realize her cuteness. Moreover, her flushed cheeks made him feel excited. No wonder he got a boner by the sight.

A strange feeling crept into William’s heart, making him want to claim her again immediately. However, he restrained himself knowing that his wish this time was a little bit out of control.

William stood up and took his plate, accompanying her to eat. He stole glances at Paula, who seemed complacent with the taste of the pancakes, although she looked sad now and then.

“Paula, don’t worry too much. I’ll catch another big fish. I promise!” said William trying to calm her, even though he didn’t have a well-planned project in hand.

Paula replied with a sincere smile. She was happy that William seemed more independent and optimistic than before.

“The pancakes are so delicious. Thanks! These are the best pancakes I’ve ever eaten!” Paula said after chewing the last bite. Then, she finished her milk in just a few gulps.

“Oh, is it that good?” William asked teasingly. “Maybe that’s because you eat while looking at me, no?”

Paula choked at William’s words. “Oh, please! It’s cheesy and lame,” she said, laughing.

Seeing Paula’s face which was slightly covered in milk and chocolate like a kid, William couldn’t stand his urge to clean it up with his lips-no-he used his hand instead. However, Paula was taken aback and inched backward.

“What do you want?” Paula startled. Her chest was pounding. It’s strange because they’ve done much more than this.

“I just want to clean your face!” Without her consent, he immediately licked Paula’s cheeks and lips to clean them up. However, Paula shoved William’s chest away.

Feeling Rejected, William thought that his efforts were still not enough to make her feel good. Then the brown-haired handsome man pulled his wife and lifted her body, carrying her-bridal style-to the room.

He was determined to make her feel this morning was a spectacular one. Then, he did many things he had never done with her. He was going to do all his sex fantasies this morning because she was also into it either.

That day, they ended up staying at home all day long. Both of them enjoyed the day with different motivations. William wanted to make Paula happy, while Paula wanted to enjoy her last time with William to the fullest before their divorce. Soon, she had to return her husband to Lea.

“Will, did you tell Lea about your current condition?” suddenly, Paula asked her husband.

“I did. Why?” 𝑓𝚛𝚎ℯ𝘸𝙚𝘣𝚗𝘰νeƖ.c𝒐𝐦

“Is she okay?”

“Of course-not.”

Guilt clouded Paula’s heart. “Try to win her heart, Will. I am sure she will understand. She has a mom, and her mom is also sick. I think she will compromise with your difficult situation.”

Smiling lightly, William poked Paula’s nose. “I will try. Thanks, Paula! I appreciate your support. But, please, don’t talk about it right now because I wanna do you again.”

“Oh, you are insatiable!”

“Shut up and let’s do it!”
