Christopher reached out his hand to me. âBlow onto it. Iâll go and cook for you after this.â
I blew onto his thumb obediently and even licked it a few times. They say saliva can be used for disinfection, right? There, it should be fine now.
Christopherâs facial expression suddenly changed. He lifted my chin and gave me a fervent and intense kiss. It felt like I was about to be swallowed by him.
His kissing technique was rather impressive. I was completely overwhelmed by him as our tongues engaged in a fierce and scorching battle of their own. After he was done, I was left panting in his arms.
Christopherâs face was looking red-hot. This expression of his was very familiar to me. Itâs the face he makes whenever heâs exercising.
After letting me go, the man gave me a pat on my head and uttered, âIâll go cook for us. Try to behave, okay?â
I nodded in response. Iâd like to avoid infuriating him again if possible. Heâs scarier than Lyle when heâs angry. After he went out of the room, I was finally able to focus on my surroundings and figure out where I was. The house I was in had two bedrooms and a living room. The whole place was decorated very nicely.
I was quite fond of the interior design of the house. The light blue curtains and the checkered tablecloth complemented each other very well. Moreover, the carpet on the floor was very soft and warm. There were also a few vases of orchids meticulously decorated around the balcony.
After putting on a pair of house slippers, I went to the kitchen and saw Christopher cooking in an apron. Is this the same Christopher I know? Look at him go! I didnât know he was such a good cookâ¦
I really didnât expect Christopher, who had been born with a silver spoon in his mouth, to be so good at cooking.
Even though he was wearing an apron, he still looked suave and attractive. Lyle could really learn a thing or two from him. It would be nice to have a helping hand in the kitchen.
âWhat are we having tonight?â I queried.
He winked at me, saying, âCaramelized pork ribs!â
Upon hearing his response, I recalled the moment I first made caramelized pork for him. Caramelized? This is not going to be good. Surprisingly enough, the caramelized pork ribs tasted amazing. Ravenous, I finished all of it in one breath.
After I was done eating, I laid down lazily on the couch. When I saw Christopher glaring down at me, I shot him a bright and silly smile.
âChristopher, youâre amazing, you know that? The dishes you made were even better than mine.â
âIf you want, I can continue to cook for you in the future,â he piped up while scrolling through his phone.
I shook my head before replying, âThereâs no need. Itâs not like I canât cook for myself.â
Christopher aligned his eyes with mine and was reticent for a while. Suddenly, he uttered, âYou should just live here from now on.â
âNo, itâs okay. Iâll find a house soon. Living here is inconvenientâ¦â I rejected his offer. I canât possibly live here. If Lyle finds out about this, heâll use this to claim that I am indeed cheating on him.
âWhat? This is your house. I donât see why it would be inconvenient,â he replied nonchalantly.
Hearing his statement, I was bewildered. âI have a house? When did that happen? Why wasnât I aware of this?â
âHalf a year ago!â Christopher opened the drawer beside him and started rummaging through it. He then took out a property ownership certificate and gave it to me. Having perused through the certificate, I was stupefied to find out that the house was indeed mine.
Half a year ago was the time when Christopher first arrived in Avenport. Could it be that he bought the house for me during that time? âWhy do you have my ID document?â
