Chapter 609: Chapter 609

I couldn’t help but burst into laughter. “Well, giving birth is something we can learn actually. I’m telling the truth. We have in-vitro fertilization nowadays, right? If you do that, I don’t even have to bother thinking about kids.”

“You wish!” Seeing that I did not dig in, Christopher pulled me into his arms and fed me instead. “My children have to be birthed from your womb. Otherwise, they won’t be the fruits of our love anymore.”

That night, when I lay in his embrace, I felt a rush of calmness in my heart despite having so many problems troubling me. It had always been like that. Being wrapped in his arms could bring peace to my mind that I stopped thinking about everything and relaxed.

Slowly and gently, Christopher’s kiss fell on my lips and trailed further down. Once he entered me, he gazed at me intently and uttered in a soft voice, “Eve, it’s been some time since we stayed together in the house just like this. Looks like I have to find a way to marry you as soon as possible so that we can become a true married couple.”

“Christopher, I only want you in my life! If I can’t marry you, I’ll never get married.” I responded to his advances with my open arms, trying to please him with all my might. After all, I was willing to do anything for him because he was worth it.

I didn’t bring up his conversation with Mark the entire time, as I was confident that he could solve it. Even if I did mention it, he would only end up getting worried.

“No, that can’t do. We’ve got our marriage certificate, and I even stole you from your husband. Holding a mere wedding ceremony shouldn’t be any more difficult than that.” As he blinked his eyes, his breathing grew heavier.

I wrapped my arms around his shoulder before turning around to sit on him, pressing his shoulder to stop him from moving. In reality, it was during such a moment that men would wish for the woman to take the initiative since they wanted to enjoy the feeling of being pampered as well.

“I guess only you can make such a shameless remark while sounding justified.” I was a bit speechless at that. When I noticed his rapid breathing, I leaned forward and opened my mouth without hesitation.

“Don’t!” Knowing that I wasn’t fond of doing it, he quickly lifted my chin to stop me. However, I pushed his hand away and bent over persistently. I was determined to show him that I was willing to do whatever I could to please him.

After satisfying his urges, he pulled me into his embrace. At that moment, I was already sweating profusely. Once again, I couldn’t help but admit that a woman’s strength was incomparable to that of a man’s. Christopher could always go for three rounds without taking a rest, yet I could only pant nonstop in his arms after only once.

“Chris.” After pondering for a while, I decided to tell him what I saw when I went to the graveyard early that morning. “I found many wounds on my mom’s body. Do you think she fought with Mark? Those wounds look severe. They looked like the results of serious domestic violence on television. Should I talk to Dad about it?”

“What?” Christopher exclaimed. He looked even more surprised than me. “Mr. and Mrs. Goldstein look so in love; I didn’t expect that to come at all.”

Hearing that, I smiled resignedly. “That’s what I thought as well, but Mom was so upset this morning. I could even sense a huge wave of despair from her just by looking at her. What should I do?”

“You’re worried that your dad didn’t treat your mom well, aren’t you?” Christopher was quick to point out what troubled me the most. Following that, he said calmly, “They’re adults, so we can’t just butt in without understanding what’s going on. Mr. Goldstein cares about you. If you ask him directly, he might feel humiliated. In the worst-case scenario, he might even take out his anger on your mom.”

His words convinced me. Despite how strong my grudge, anger, and the urge to talk to Mark were, I could only suppress them for now. Even though I had yet to call him “Dad,” deep down in my heart, I had acknowledged him as my father. After all, it was undeniable that we were blood-related.
