143 Ch. 143 How To Pacify Richard’s Anger

Richard released his hug and folded his arms in front of his chest. His eyes no longer looked at Anxia gently but were more demanding... demanding an explanation. Not to mention, the horse’s owner wouldn’t like it if someone gave a toy snake to Elwood.

Really. Anxia’s pranks this time were too outrageous.

“So, why did you do it?”

“I just want you to get back riding so you can ride with us.”

“Just because you want me to ride, you put your life in danger?”

Anxia felt even more guilty hearing her husband’s high tone. As far as she could remember, Richard had never scolded her or snapped at her. She lowered her head, unable to accept the glare from her husband.

“I’m sorry. I wouldn’t do it if I weren’t sure I couldn’t control it.”

Richard felt like his tongue was being clamped at his wife’s answer. He knew Anxia wasn’t a normal girl, but he never thought his wife would go crazy like this to make him ride with her.

If Anxia wanted him to ride with her, why didn’t she ask him to? If in case, Anxia asked him to ride together, Richard would not refuse her request. But Anxia never asked for it, and she only told him to choose whether Richard wanted to ride or not. Being told to choose, of course, Richard decided not to participate.

.....

Richard stroked his temple before realizing something. “Xia Xia, how do you know I have ridden before?”

“Bentley told me. He also said you don’t want to ride because of that two-face cousin of yours.”

Why had Bentley told his wife that the reason he no longer wanted to ride had something to do with Quinn? It had nothing to do with the girl at all.

“I don’t care about your past, but I don’t like it if that girl caused you not to ride again.”

Richard’s lips twitched, and he raised his finger to flick his wife’s forehead lightly. “Silly. What are you jealous of?”

“Who’s jealous? I’m not jealous!” Anxia’s denial made Richard smile in amusement.

Noticing Richard’s smile returning to normal, Anxia was relieved that the man was no longer angry with her.

“You’re not mad at me anymore?”

“No. I’m still mad. If you want me to ride with you, all you have to do is ask. I told you before I can’t read human minds. If you want me to do something, you must ask for it.”

“Are you going to do it?”

“When have I never granted your wish?”

Anxia bit her lip because she couldn’t refute the question. Richard never refused her request, even though she asked something very absurd. She once asked to come with Richard to work and accompany the man to a meeting with the company’s board of directors.

If it were another man, he would not feel comfortable bringing his wife into the office and letting the woman listen to the meeting’s conferences from start to finish. But Richard didn’t mind at all. On the other hand, Richard always showed everyone how much he adored Anxia by embracing her and giving her short kisses regardless of whether there was an audience.

Richard was acting more possessive than usual when lots of eyes, especially from the male employees who looked at Anxia with interest. Her husband’s possessive gesture made Anxia tired of coming to his office.

Since then, she no longer asked her husband to take her to the office.

Anxia knew that as long as what she asked was within Richard’s reach and did not abuse his power, the man would grant her request without hesitation.

“You’re right. I was wrong, so forgive me. Hmm?”

“You do know how to make me forgive you.” Richard put on a crooked smile, earning lazy rolling eyes from his wife. Richard wanted Anxia to take the initiative to kiss him first. After living with the man for two years, Anxia understood her husband’s habit of being cranky or annoying like a child.

Anxia grabbed Richard’s hand and pulled him towards a tree with large roots sticking out of the ground. Then she stood on the roots, her height almost level with Richard’s. This way, she didn’t have to pull Richard’s head because of Richard’s towering height.

Then she rested her hands on either side of his husband’s neck while tilting her head to kiss her husband’s lips. As soon as the two pairs of lips met, Anxia teased Richard by biting his lower lip. She also sucked alternately from the lower lip to the upper one.

After she felt that she had kissed her husband long enough, but Richard didn’t react, Anxia pulled her head slightly away from Richard’s mouth, which was still tightly closed.

“Is it enough?”

“Not yet.” came the answer from the unsatisfied husband.

“What do you want me to do? You’ve been in control all this time.”

Richard chuckled at his wife’s grumbling. “I thought you wanted to be in control once in a while?” Richard laughed when he saw a blush on his wife’s tiny face.

Anxia did not like to be controlled, but when making out with her husband, Anxia went blank and let the man take the lead.

“Come here,” Richard bent his index finger to tell Anxia to bring her face closer again.

Anxia complied and immediately gasped when she felt her husband’s tongue slip into her mouth. In just a matter of seconds, their kiss became aggressive and intense, creating a delicious sigh from both of them.

“Sst!”

Richard and Anxia stopped right away when they heard a noise not far from them. They turned around only to see their daughter putting her index finger to her mouth to silence Bentley and Gladys.

“Lori, how long have you been here?”

“Just now. Dad, mom, I thought something happened to you, so I followed you here. If I know you are dating, I won’t have come here.”

Bentley and Gladys lowered their heads with their hands over their mouths. Obviously, they tried their best to hold their laughter.
