Chapter 4

  • "Stop teasing me...," Celine exclaimed."What do you want?" she stuttered, resting her hands on Leon's chest. Celine has no idea what is happening to her, but every time Leon approaches her, her heart beats faster.
  • Leon gave her a look and signed, "We're leaving this house," he said quietly, gently rubbing Celine's lips.
  • Celine raised her brows as she met Leon's gaze. (Hmm, is he up to something?) In disbelief, she mutters to herself. Celine has lived in the mansion since her marriage to Leon. She was only allowed to leave when she went to visit her parents' grave. "Would you mind telling me where we're going?"
  • "I have projects outside of Cambridge, so we'll move to a house near my workplace," Leon said softly, tightening his grip on Celine's body.
  • Celine was curious about the type of business Leon was referring to. "Do I really need to come?" she inquired. Celine didn't realize her finger had already played with Leon's chest because she was deep in thought.
  • "You are my wife, so you must come," Leon said before kissing her lips. The kiss was brief, but its impact on Celine was profound.
  • What is going on with me? My heartbeat is becoming increasingly rapid... She blushed and murmured to herself.
  • Leon had been gone for a long time, but Celine was still stunned. No! That can't be! Celine immediately dismisses the notion that she is in love with her husband.
  • -------------
  • They left the mansion early, as LEON stated. Celine was quiet on the road, studying her feelings for her husband. She doesn't want to admit it, but Leon enters her heart with her knowledge, and Celine is terrified. She was terrified of falling in love with her husband!
  • "The rules in the last house will remain the same." "You are not allowed to leave the house alone, as you were before," Leon says insensitively, his gaze fixed on the papers in his hand.
  • Celine frowned, but she was expecting it. "Why do I have to hide?" "I'm sure your adversary is unaware of my appearance..." she responds, looking out the window.
  • Leon drew Celine in closer. "I'm not seeking your opinion... "All I need is for you to follow my rule!" he yelled angrily before letting go of Celine's arm.
  • What's the deal with him this time? Did I make another mistake? She was perplexed by Leon's lack of interest. Celine decided to keep her mouth shut after that remark, and Leon didn't seem to mind because he didn't say anything.
  • The car came to a halt in front of a house the size of Leon's in Cambridge. The only distinction is that the yard is a little smaller.
  • "What are you doing?" "Are you going to leave?" Celine was surprised when Leon remained in the vehicle.
  • "I told you, I have work," Leon said before the driver shut the door.
  • Celine signed as she looked at the car, which quickly vanished from view. "It's all right, Celine... At the very least, you'll be at ease..." she murmured as she entered the house.
  • Celine and Leon have been in their new home for a week. It's also been a week since Leon returned home, which Celine was relieved about. She has time to investigate her feelings.
  • "It's better to sit and watch than to think of nonsense..." Celine murmured as she took up the television remote.
  • Leon's expression startled Celine as soon as the TV turned on. "What the hell?" she exclaimed. Celine had not expected Leon to appear on TV with a famous movie star.
  • "Is this the work he's talking about?" That cretin! I thought he was unique among men!" Celine screamed as she grabbed the phone and dialled Leon's number.
  • [Sorry, the number you dialled was either unanswered or out of service area; please try again later...]
  • "Huh! You're ignoring my call now?!" Celine says, her eyes widening. It's her first call to Leon, and he has no intention of answering.
  • "Fine! "Do whatever you want!" Celine screamed angrily and turned on the television.
  • Celine was about to take a bath when Leon arrived that night. Celine is certain he is drunk based on his appearance. Perhaps he's in that superstar's arms... Celine had the idea as a result of this thought.
  • "It appears that your tire... "How's it going at work?" With a seductive smile, Celine approaches Leon.
  • "What made you call?" "Did anything happen?" Leon inquired, his brow furrowed. Leon was surprised to see Celine miscalled because he had not received a call from her during their time together.
  • "Why? Is it forbidden for me to call my husband?" As her hands are wrapped around Leon's neck, Celine makes a seductive remark. Celine may have had the courage to act this way due to jealousy.
  • "You're not going to call me out of nowhere... "Can you tell me what's wrong?" Leon replied by putting his arm around Celine's waist.
  • "I saw you on TV earlier and thought of calling you..." Celine confessed while removing her hand from Leon's neck, but she was stopped by Leon.
  • "Hmm, my wife called me after seeing me on TV with another woman... Is that correct?"Leon said sarcastically.
  • Celine flushes as she notices Leon's lips smirking. He's teasing me once more! Celine drew her body closer to him with this in mind. "Why? "Am I not allowed to bother you?" I try to make a funny face to hide my embarrassment.
  • "Celine, please don't play with me..." Leon said this while staring at her lips.
  • "And what will happen if I want to play?" Celine responds by rubbing her lips against Leon's lips.
  • Instead of responding, Leon snatched Celine by the nape of her neck and kissed her passionately. Leon has been restrained for so long, but when Celine makes the first move, he loses his cool.
  • Celine, too, responded with the same zeal and eagerness.
  • But Celine doesn't want to kiss Leon, so when she lets go of her lip, she leaves a space on their body.
  • "I'm sure you're tired, so go to bed and get some rest..." Celine stated. She didn't wait for Leon's response before turning around and going to the restroom.
  • "Not so fast, my dear wife..."
