Chapter 188

Allen smiled bitterly and gratefully, and stared at Joey, asking, “Do you think my family is a mess?”

His parents always quarreled with each other. His father had a son with another woman. His grandfather was widowed many years ago and now fell in love with an eighteen-year-old maid. His younger sister was crazy and rebellious enough to fall hopelessly in love with her half brother. Every single one of these scandals would be serious enough to destroy a regular family.

The Charles family was a place with all these filthy things. Allen was really worried that Joey would think less of his family and him for it.

Joey knew how terrible he must feel now. She shook her head and touched his face tenderly and gave him a kiss on the lips, “You silly boy, it’s not your fault. Don’t be so stressed out. They...in their defense, it’s not their fault either, because love is blind and irresistible. They just love each in spite of marriage, age difference and blood relationship. Besides, we’re in a similar situation, but the great differences of social standing didn’t stop us from falling in love with each other in the first place. Everyone has his own way, and no one can make decisions for others. Allen, you’ve done everything you could. Just accept it for what it is.”

Allen felt much better. He gave Joey a hug with excitement and affection, and said gently, “Oh, baby, my baby...”

Joey blushed. She knew what he needed most now was a comforting hug instead of a long lecture.

She replied softly and shyly, “I know, baby...”

She totally understood him.

However, Allen was somehow aroused by her kiss and hug in such a sad and vulnerable moment.

“Baby...”

His voice changed and it was hoarse and excited. His hands on her waist began to run all over her body under the thin nightgown restlessly, “Baby, we haven’t done it for quite a while. Baby, I’ve missed you so much!”

He hadn’t slept with Joey ever since Chance announced her pregnancy. It had been nearly half a month. No wonder he wanted her so much.

Joey’s breath became heavy. Allen’s hands worked magic on her sensitive body, and she was tempted to make love to him too. But she was rational enough to come to her sense at the last minute. She quickly grabbed his hands and shook her head with begging eyes, “Allen, we can’t do this.

Chance told me to be more cautious about the baby. Sex...is off limits.”

Allen was greatly disappointed. He felt terrible that he couldn’t be intimate with Joey. He touched her belly that didn’t show yet, and frowned, “You little bastard, you’ve become my biggest love rival now and I’ll certainly give you a good lesson when you arrive.”

Allen frowned, “What should I do? I have to put up with it for the next eight months. Oh God, I’m gonna freak out.

Joey wasn’t happy and said half-jokingly, “Allen, will you cheat on me?”

Allen joked, “That is a great idea. Thanks for the suggestion.”

“How dare you?”

Joey pulled his ears. She didn't realize he was joking.

“Ouch!”

Allen begged, “I’m sorry. I was messing with you, baby. You’re the only woman I love in the world.”

“Apology accepted.”

She let go of his ears. But she couldn’t help feeling worried because of his joke.

She knew she shouldn’t doubt his loyalty, because he loved her so much and he certainly wouldn’t do anything to hurt her. But she couldn’t help imagining things. There are so many temptations in the world.

She had become oversensitive since she got pregnant. There was always something on her mind. She had tried to restrain herself, but in vain.

She was very afraid that she might have some psychological problems.
