Chapter 1915: Chapter 2129

After a minute of underwater ki*sing, Lucinda pulled away from Nathan, and they surfaced together.

During the ascent, she took the opportunity to sneakily swat Nathan’s behind, taking advantage of a blind spot.

However, the water’s resistance made the swat more embarrassing than painful.

As they emerged from the water, Nathan’s ears were red, and his Lips, usually thin and alluring, were swollen from the biting.

Lucinda’s ki*s was intended as a playful punishment.

Hilliard stared at Nathan’s swollen Lips with a hint of surprise and admiration for his sister, thinking to himself how truly fierce the Simmons family could be.

“Has the punishment been completed?” he asked.

Lucinda’s lips curved into a sly smile.

“No, what I just did was personal between Nathan and me, but I have thought of a punishment,” she declared.

The trio in the pool looked at her curiously, wondering what she would propose.

Nathan rubbed his slightly swollen lips, waiting anxiously for Lucinda’s verdict.

With a playful tone, Lucinda announced, “Nathan, I’ll punish you to do a hundred push-ups.

”

Nathan exhaled in relief.

Hilliard and Jennifer looked incredulous.

After all the suspense, was that really the punishment?

“It seems Lucinda still has a soft spot for her husband.

Nathan was in the army.

For him, a hundred push-ups can probably be done in one go without breaking a sweat,” Jennifer remarked.

Hilliard inquired, “Jennifer, have you thought about a punishment for me? Or should I do the same as Nathan, a hundred push-ups?”

Lucinda scanned their expressions one by one, her smile growing more intense.

“I haven’t finished speaking yet.

What’s the rush, Hilliard? Nathan must do a hundred push-ups with me sitting on his back.

Moreover, he has to use his abdominal strength to burst a hundred water balloons while doing the push-ups.

If his waist accidentally touches the floor, it won’t count.

”

Upon hearing this, both Hilliard and Jennifer were shocked.

“A hundred water balloons?” Jennifer exclaimed in disbelief.

“Water balloons are very soft and extremely difficult to burst, and Nathan can’t even touch the floor with his waist.

Isn’t this a bit too difficult?”

Nathan pursed his slightly swollen lips and silently exhaled.

Push- ups, no matter the added difficulties, were still manageable for him.

Fortunately, Lucinda hadn’t thought of spanking him in public.

That would have been too embarrassing.

Lucinda, unaware of his internal thoughts, stared at Nathan with a broad smile.

“Whether it’s difficult or not depends on his waist strength.

”

A true man would never acknowledge that his waist lacked strength.

“I accept the punishment, and I’ll have the staff prepare the water balloons right away,” Nathan declared.

Since the one being punished had accepted, Hilliard and Jennifer had no more objections.

But the severity of Lucinda’s punishment concerned Jennifer.

Although she and Hilliard had shared sweet moments that tested his stamina, she wasn’t sure of his Limits.

She decided to halve Lucinda’s punishment, asking Hilliard to do fifty push-ups and burst fifty water balloons.

Once she set the lighter punishment, Hilliard disagreed.

“If Nathan is doing a hundred push-ups, then I will do the same.

”

Hilliard thought that doing only fifty push-ups while Nathan was prepared to do a hundred would suggest that his waist strength was only half as good.
