Chapter: 477
She was both angry and worried. She quickly pulled the cashmere blanket off the couch and covered him.
He was so reckless he came to her apartment wearing only a thin shirt. Didn’t he know how cold the weather outside was? @ “I'm going to make tea!” Ariana announced, glaring at Theodore. Then, she went to the kitchen.
Theodore watched the angry woman walk away and shook his head, smiling. When she was out of sight, he started to look around again. His gaze finally landed on the cozy little bed. The sheet was slightly creased, and seemed to still have its owner’s temperature.
In the kitchen, Ariana quickly prepared some tea and took out of the fridge the steamed cake she had prepared in the evening. ©
Even though it was her first time making this cake recipe, it still looked good visually. She put it on a clean plate and microwaved it for ten minutes. When it was done, the cake glistened and gave off a sweet, warm smell that greatly increased one’s appetite. ©
When the cake was heated enough, Ariana took out a tray and put the tea and steamed cake on it. She then carried the tray back to her room.
Ariana gently pushed open the door. What she saw when the door was opened stunned her. The man who was supposed to be sitting in the wheelchair had somehow climbed into her little bed and was resting there.
When Theodore saw her come in, a bewitching smile appeared on his gorgeous face. He patted the place beside him, indicating her to come and sit. He was acting as though it was his room. © He took the expression “making oneself at home” quite literally.
Ariana was unaware but her inhibitions had been lowering and she was captivated by his charm. By the time her mind caught on to what her body was experiencing, she was already lying in bed with Theodore.
The man wrapped his fingers around her delicate ankles and placed her icy feet underneath his legs. He frowned and said, “They're so cold.” ©
He then began to warm her hands as well by rubbing them between his bigger ones.
Ariana basked in his sweetness, her hands and feet warming up significantly.
However, she didn’t let this distraction work on her so she stated, “You haven’t told me why you suddenly came over without letting me know.”
Theodore reached out and gently pinched her tender cheek. “Didn’t you just text me and tell me that you were cold? I’m here to warm up the bed.”
She pondered over his reasoning and it didn’t make sense. It was too fast. She had sent the message and mere seconds later, he was outside her door. People who were unaware of the whole story would think that he had somehow dashed over with the recovered legs.
She tried not to overthink it and rather just accepted his answer. She patted the man on the shoulder and smiled. “Drink the tea while it’s still hot.”
Obediently, Theodore took a sip of the ginger tea, his eyebrows tightly furrowed. “It’s bitter in taste.”
“That’s impossible. | put a lot of sugar in it. Besides, ginger tea isn’t supposed to taste bitter anyway.” Ariana didn’t believe him. She sat up and craned her neck over him to take a sip herself.
Before her lips could touch the porcelain cup, they instead collided with another pair of warm lips as Theodore intercepted her route. He lowered his head and kissed Ariana on the lips before separating and looking deeply into her eyes. “It indeed isn’t bitter. It’s very sweet.” ©
