Chapter 5 You Think You Know What Bullying Is

• Adrian's expression turned stern as he opened the door.
• He immediately smelled alcohol in the living room.
• Then, he saw a few bottles of his precious wine on the coffee table. Each of them was worth millions.
• They were all empty.
• Furthermore, a young woman lay wasted on the sofa. Her cheeks flushed as she kept scolding a man. Sometimes, she would mention Adrian's name.
• She looked like a mess.
• Annoyance appeared on the man's cold and handsome face.
• We have just gotten married. Is she now revealing her true colors?
• Cathy suddenly noticed someone had walked in; she burped and turned to him.
• "Who are you?"
• She was completely drunk. She got up and went to Adrian.
• Adrian had a high nose and stern eyebrows. He was a handsome man with chiseled facial features.
• He seems handsome like Xavier.
• No, he is Xavier…
• How dare he appear before me!
• Cathy gritted her teeth furiously and raised her hand to slap him. However, Adrian grabbed hold of her wrist.
• Adrian's cold eyes turned stern. "How much did you drink?"
• Her legs were wobbly, and she could not stand still as he held her wrist. She kept swaying as she answered, "I didn't drink…"
• With that, she flung herself at him and wrapped her arms around his waist. "Xavier, I miss you."
• Her face flushed like a young girl in love, and her voice was alluring as she shouted, "Xavier, can you please not hate me? I didn't mean it…"
• Cathy began to cry. Her tears seeped through his shirt and wet his muscular abs.
• Adrian furrowed his brow, his expression darker than a stormy sky.
• He looked down at her.
• At this moment, Cathy hugged his waist tightly. She looked innocent and adorable.
• Although she looked at him lovingly, her red lips called out another man's name.
• Adrian grabbed hold of her and carried her in his arms, bringing her upstairs.
• Cathy had prepared a warm bath for Adrian.
• But the water had turned icy cold at this point.
• Splash!
• Adrian dropped Cathy into the tub of water.
• Her wet white t-shirt clung to her body, revealing her alluring figure.
• Even though the bathroom was cold, Adrian felt a wave of heat coursing through his body as he looked at her.
• He hated women.
• After he had hurt a woman five years ago, he felt an instinctive aversion toward women.
• He would not allow any woman to touch him, including his sister.
• However, when Cathy hugged him just now and stuck close to his body, he did not feel disgusted. Instead, he even found it a little pleasant.
• "It's cold…"
• Cathy shivered in the tub.
• She had drank too much wine, so the cold water did not wake her from her drunken state. Instead, she became even more daring.
• "Xavier."
• Cathy rested her head on the edge of the bathtub and called out weakly, "I'm cold."
• She reached out and grabbed the hem of Adrian's shirt and said, "Can you hug me?"Her eyes were alluring, and her cheeks flushed. She looked at him coyly and continued,
• "Can you carry me out? It's really cold…"
• Her voice was smooth and sweet like hot chocolate, melting Adrian's cold heart.
• He could not remember the last time he had felt like this.
• He had to admit that she was different from other women.
• However, she kept calling out for a man named Xavier.
• Adrian kneeled by the tub and grabbed her jaw with one hand. "Who am I?"
• Cathy pursed her lips and answered, "You're Xavier."
• She could only see Xavier in her drunken state.
• Adrian frowned dangerously and pushed her head into the water.
• The bone-chilling water surrounded her head but did not wake her from her drunken state. She struggled helplessly in the bathtub.
• Adrian quickly let go of her and gave her an icy stare. "Tell me. Who am I?"
• "Xavier."
• Adrian pressed her down again.
• Tears fell from Cathy's eyes as she coughed out water. She looked at him with eyes full of tears and said, "You should tell me who you are then."
• Adrian reached for her ruby lips and rubbed them as he said, "Call me hubby."
• Cathy said in resignation, "Hubby…"
• Adrian felt an intense urge surged throughout his body when he heard her.
• Cathy reached out and held Adrian's face. She looked at him with her crystal-like eyes and said, "Please get me out of this cold water."
• "I've called you hubby, so you mustn't bully me anymore."
• She had a beautiful face. Now that she was drunk and crying, she seemed alluring like a red rose.
• Adrian looked at her and muttered, "You little drunkard."
• "You think this is bullying?"
• Cathy looked up at him innocently and nodded.
• Adrian's voice turned hoarse. "Let me show you what bullying is."
• He immediately climbed into the bathtub.
• …
• The following day.
• The sun rose as usual.
• Its piercing light shone into the room through the glass window.
• Suddenly, a man pulled open the curtains, revealing a floor-to-ceiling window. He stood with his back facing Cathy as he looked out of the window.
• The man was tall and sturdy. One could sense his dignified and dominant aura from his back profile.
• At this moment, Cathy woke up with a piercing headache.
• Last night, she had a wild dream about her wedding night. She had a bath with a handsome man and spent a passionate night with him.
• The dream lingered in her mind. She thought about it for a moment before opening her eyes gradually.
• She was immediately greeted with the sight of a masculine back profile. Cathy was so shocked that she could hardly speak.
• "You... You!"
• "Who are you?"
• Why is there a man in my room?
• He looks tall and strong. Even from his back profile, I can tell that he is not Adrian!
• Who is he?
• Did I sleep with another man under Adrian's roof?
• Adrian heard Cathy's gasp and frowned. He turned around and said, "You must never drink wine again."
• She drank a few millions worth of his wine last night.
• Although he did not care about the cost, he felt sad over the loss of his hard-to-find premium vintage wines.
• After saying that, he walked out of the room without another glance at Cathy.
• Cathy was stunned for a long while.
• She remembered feeling suffocating sadness when she saw Xavier and Willow on the news. Then, she drank some wine.
• After that…
• "No way!"
• Cathy looked down at the bruises and scratches on her body and wanted to weep.
• She was supposed to have her wedding night with Adrian last night. However, she could not wait for Adrian to come home and even let a stranger…
• She recalled all those rumors about Adrian's violent tendencies.
• Cathy could imagine that she would suffer a terrible end…
• Furthermore, that man who cuckolded Adrian even dared to stay behind to tell her never to drink wine again.
• She would never dare to drink wine again from now on.
• While she was still in a daze, someone knocked and opened the door.
• It was Arius dressed in light yellow pajamas. He walked into the room and said, "I'm hungry."
