Chapter 179: Enjoying the World of Two

She couldn't help but cover her mouth and giggle as she listened to William's words over the phone.

Seeing this, Raymond walked over and pulled her into his arms, whispering in her ear, "Sam's got everything set up. Now it's our turn..."

Melinda blushed and shyly lowered her head.

She knew there was no escaping tonight...

That afternoon, after Raymond's meeting, he and Melinda went shopping together.

He even bought some scented candles, saying they could add a bit of atmosphere to the bedroom.

Melinda hadn't expected Raymond to be so romantic, and she covered her mouth and laughed again.

Back at the villa, Raymond personally prepared dinner.

He had never cooked before, but he had learned to cook for Melinda.

Before long, a sumptuous dinner was ready.

Raymond lit the candles, adding a touch of romance to the dining room.

After dinner, Melinda wanted to help clean up, but Raymond stopped her. "I'll take care

of this. You go rest," he said, giving her a suggestive look and adding, "Go upstairs and take a bath. I'll be up soon..."

He kissed her lightly on the lips.

Blushing, Melinda turned and went upstairs...

Half an hour later, the bathroom door slowly opened. Raymond had taken a quick shower, and the scent of his body wash still lingered.

Hearing Raymond's footsteps, Melinda's heart began to race, as if it might leap out of her chest.

She nervously gripped the bedsheet, anticipating the moment to come.

Moonlight streamed through the gaps in the curtains, casting a dappled glow on him, giving him an ethereal aura.

He was shirtless, with only a white towel wrapped around his waist, his muscular fórm exuding a hint of temptation.

His wet hair dripped water that slid down his face and chest, creating ripples.

Raymond's gaze was more intense than ever, as if he wanted to melt Melinda.

He raised an eyebrow slightly, a meaningful smile playing on his lips as he slowly approached the bed.

Melinda watched him draw closer, feeling both nervous and expectant.

He leaned over her, his voice low and husky, "I've waited long enough."

With that, he gently bit Melinda's lip, his kiss tender yet irresistibly powerful. Melinda closed her eyes, letting his kiss wash over her like a gentle rain.

Their bodies pressed tightly together.

In the bright light, their shadows intertwined, forming a beautiful tableau.

Raymond's eyes were filled with love and tenderness. He whispered in Melinda's ear, "I love you, Melinda."

That night, they clung to each other like magnets, savoring their rare moment of passion...

The next day at noon, Melinda groggily opened her eyes in warm sunlight, her gaze naturally falling on Raymond beside her.

Seeing Raymond's peaceful sleeping face, her heart swelled with endless happiness and contentment.

She snuggled closer to Raymond's chest, as if she could hear his steady, strong heartbeat, the most reassuring melody to her.

She closed her eyes, deeply breathing in Raymond's unique scent, which brought her peace.

Raymond slowly woke up to Melinda's movements. He opened his eyes to see Melinda's gentle gaze and sweet face.

His heart warmed, a hint of affection and tenderness in his eyes. He wrapped his arm around Melinda, pulling her close, and softly asked, "How did I do last night?"

Melinda smiled mysteriously, not directly answering Raymond's question, but instead playfully blinking and giving him a meaningful smile.

She knew this would pique Raymond's curiosity even more.

Seeing Melinda's shy yet playful demeanor, Raymond felt a surge of emotion.

He gently kissed Melinda's forehead and softly said, "Looks like I need to keep trying."

His voice was filled with affection and confidence.

Hearing this, Melinda's face flushed.

She quickly shook her head, her voice trembling slightly, "No, it's daytime now."

She knew what Raymond meant by "trying," and at this moment, she clearly wasn't ready to continue last night's madness in the daylight.

Raymond couldn't help but laugh at Melinda's shy expression.

He gently said, "Then let's continue tonight?" His eyes were full of anticipation and desire.

"What?" Melinda exclaimed, feeling as if an electric current had jolted her body. Instinctively, she tried to escape Raymond's embrace, but her sore muscles made it impossible to move.

She rolled to the other side of the bed, pulling the covers tightly over herself.

She was completely naked, the love marks on her body clearly visible in the daylight. Raymond laughed again at Melinda's startled deer-like expression.

He got up, put on a loose black robe, and walked to the bed, gently patting Melinda's shoulder. "What do you want for lunch? I'll make it." His voice was filled with tenderness and affection, as if coaxing a child.

For the next three days, Raymond and Melinda were inseparable. Whether it was a sunny afternoon or a starry night, they always had endless things to talk about and laugh about.

"Melinda, let's take a bath together and save on the water bill," Raymond said, winking with a mischievous smile.

Melinda's cheeks turned slightly red, and she gave him a playful glare.

In the bathroom, steam swirled around them, their figures barely visible.

They played and laughed, their voices and the sound of water blending into a beautiful symphony.

As the water gradually cooled, their hearts grew warmer.

Reluctantly ending their fun, they held each other tightly, as if trying to merge into

one.

In the blink of an eye, three days passed quickly.

When Sam returned, he beamed with joy upon seeing Raymond and Melinda.

He ran over and hugged them tightly.

However, William stood to the side, watching their happy family with a complex expression.

A mix of jealousy, envy, and longing surged within him.

He longed for a gentle, caring woman like Melinda to share his life with.

Late at night, Melinda woke from her sleep, instinctively reaching for the spot beside

her.

But she only felt a cold, empty space.

She opened her eyes slightly, seeing that Raymond wasn't there.

A wave of inexplicable sadness washed over her. She quietly got out of bed and walked

out of the bedroom, guessing that Raymond might be in Sam's room.

Sure enough, when she reached Sam's bedroom door, she saw Raymond gazing deeply at the sleeping Sam.

His eyes were filled with fatherly love and guilt, as if trying to pour all the love he had missed over the years into Sam.

Melinda's heart warmed. She gently walked over and sat beside Raymond, holding his hand tenderly.

Raymond turned to her, a hint of softness in his eyes.

They sat quietly by Sam's bed until dawn, then reluctantly returned to their bedroom.

Holding each other as they slept, it was as if they were trying to merge into one. The next morning, Melinda received a call from Connie, who sounded particularly excited. "Melinda, Bobby's case is going to court on Tuesday. You need to be ready." Melinda hung up the phone and turned to Raymond.

She knew that no matter what challenges lay ahead, as long as Raymond was by her side, she had endless courage.
