Chapter 1199

Theo looked at me with a smirk. "Am I right to say that you're only so persistent because you don't want me to give up on this project?"

"You can say that.”

I was extremely honest. "I was put in charge of this project, after all. I've put in a lot of effort too. I really don't want to give u p halfway. The share that I’ll get after the project is the main point. I can't bring myself to give up on that."

Theo's gaze deepened. “In order to make your husband not give this project up, don’t you think you should give me some benefits?"

I pursed my lips and wrapped my arms around his neck after thinking about it. I kissed him on the lips.

Of course, I was planning to only cover the surface, but Theo clearly did not want to do that.

He wrapped his arms around my waist and deepened the kiss.

It was a very gentle kiss. I raised my hand and pinched his ear, feeling the blazing temperature on my fingertips. My eyes lit u p as though I had discovered something new.

After the kiss, I teased him. "I realized that your ears are very sensitive."

Theo did not reply to me and kissed me again.

That kiss tasted a little punitive, hurting m

y lips a little.

I complained a little aggrievedly, "You don't feel sorry for me at all."

Theo chuckled. "They’re too tasty. I can't control myself."

I was too shy to say those embarrassing words.

Theo tossed the towel in his hand to the side, picked me up, and walked to the edge of the bed. He pinned me down on the bed.

The lights were dazzling to look at, so I shut my eyes and quickly said, "Switch off the lights."

Theo gently hummed as his hands fumbled for the switch at the head of the bed. He then switched off the lights in the room.

At the same time the room fell into darkness, an ambiguous air filled the atmosphere.

We could distinctly feel each other's disorderly breaths and hear the sound of our beating hearts.

When it was done, I lay in his arms and was about to doze off.

Theo's leg was constantly on me, and he had no intention of shifting it away.

I could not help but frown. "Can you move your leg? It’s so heavy."

Theo shifted it compliantly and gently patted my back to coax me to sleep.

As I was too exhausted, I fell asleep in less than a few minutes.

I had a good night's sleep. When I woke up a t eight o'clock in the morning and saw Theo lying by my side, I embraced him and nestled into his arms.

Theo opened his eyes and asked in a daze.' Are you awake?"

"I'm awake.”

The man’s laughter came from above. "My little guy is awake too.”

Sensing that something was out of place, I was instantly awake and quickly shifted back.

Theo smiled faintly. "Don’t worry, I won't torture you any further."

"You must be hungry, right?"

I felt hungry as soon as he asked.

Theo got out of bed to bathe before going downstairs to make me breakfast.

I only went downstairs when he was nearly done making breakfast.

Theo was frying eggs in the kitchen. I did not want to take in the smell of grease and smoke, so I went straight to the dining room where I waited to be fed.

When he was done drying the eggs, he came into the dining area with a plate. When he saw me staring at him from the moment he walked in, he asked in amusement, "Are there flowers on my face?"

I smiled faintly. "Better than flowers. I wonder how a perfect man like you fell into my hands."

"Oh?" Theo sat on the chair and looked at m e with a smirk. "Looks like you're very happy with my performance last night."

Rascal!

I did not want to say a word and ate my breakfast in silence.
