Chapter 16
Although he was greeting both Elizabeth and Andrew, Henry rested his gaze on Elizabeth very boldly.
He felt his heart beat uncontrollably faster.
He thought Elizabeth was getting more and more beautiful, and he regretted that he didn’t seize the opportunity to get her. But all this was not too late. Henry had already made the preparations for his return this time.
Whether it was the Hayes family or Elizabeth, he would take them all from Andrew.
Sensing Henry’s gaze, Elizabeth frowned a little impatiently. She turned her face sideways and looked at Andrew with slight
concern.
As expected, Andrew’s beautiful eyes flashed with a hint of harshness.
He and Henry stared at each other for a few seconds. Instantly, the air between them seemed to fill with intense tension.
“Henry, after studying abroad for a few years, have you forgotten even the most basic manners? Isn’t it a bit inappropriate to call my wife in such an intimate way?”
When Andrew said that, he had hidden all his hostility and even had a smile on the corner of his mouth, but the invisible aura and sense of oppression emanating from his body made people dare not ignore it.
“Andrew, why do you have to be so strict? Elizabeth is not only your wife. She was also once my alumnus for several years, so it’s not illegal to exchange pleasantries with her, right?”
With that, Henry raised his eyebrows ambiguously toward Elizabeth. When he said the word “alumnus,” his tone was deliberately aggravated as if to imply to Andrew that his previous relationship with Elizabeth was not that simple. When she heard those words, Elizabeth’s face changed. In her heart, she had already silently scolded Henry a thousand times.
She thought, “Henry has become more shameless and disgusting after so long.”
“Well, it’s better to call her Elizabeth. You guys graduated many years ago. Now that Liz is married to me and has become a member of the Hayes family, as a cousin, you should still treat her with a little more respect.”
After saying that, Andrew put his broad palm on Elizabeth’s slender waist and pulled her soft body into his arms, swearing his sovereignty over Elizabeth to Henry.
Elizabeth leaned into Andrew’s arms obediently. The two looked intimate and loving.
Seeing such a scene, Henry clenched his fist behind his back. He secretly gritted his teeth. A hint of imperceptible hostility flashed under his eyes.
He said deep down, “It doesn’t matter. There will be ample time in the future. You won’t be able to be complacent for long, Andrew”
“Andrew, Elizabeth, don’t you guys think it’s a little awkward to stand at the door like this? Let’s go to the inner room. I have some friends I want to introduce to you, Andrew.”
Henry changed his expression. With a smile on his face, he gestured for Andrew and Elizabeth to go inside.
The three of them walked toward the hall. Just before they reached the door, suddenly, with a snap sound, the lights of the entire venue were extinguished. The surrounding area was suddenly dark.
The whole hall was in an uproar, and the crowd began to stir.
The hand around Elizabeth’s waist began to tighten. She was shocked and inwardly said, “No good.”
She was afraid the power outage was not an accident. Henry might not have had any good intentions from the beginning when he invited them to this party.
If Andrew suddenly had a seizure here, the news would spread. It would definitely have a serious impact on him.
Just then, the pungent smell of mixed perfume began to rush into Elizabeth’s mouth and nose. She was acutely aware that a woman was approaching her and Andrew.
Andrew’s tightened palm began to tremble slightly, and his emotions began to become out of his control.
Elizabeth hurriedly placed her hand over the back of his and gently rubbed his skin with her delicate palm.
“Calm
Calm down. I’m here. Don’t be afraid.”
She stood on her tiptoes and whispered soothingly in Andrew’s car in a voice that only the two of them could hear.
Andrew pinched heavily on the flesh of Elizabeth’s waist. His taut body and slightly rapid breathing both conveyed a fact to
Elizabeth.
Chapter 16
With those women and strangers approaching, Andrew’s emotions were getting more out of control. He could explode in an instant at any time.
“Ah… I’m a little afraid of the dark. Sorry, can you give me a hand?”
An unfamiliar female voice sounded in Andrew’s ears. After she finished, she tried to grab him.
Hearing this, Andrew’s pupils instantly dilated. He increased the force of the hand pinching Elizabeth’s waist and even took her backward a few steps.
He had a strong sense of rejection and discomfort with the approach of this strange woman.
“Oh, sorry, my husband has to take care of me, so go find someone else.”
Elizabeth pulled Andrew a few more steps to the side as she spoke, trying to stay away from those who presumed to stimulate his emotions.
“Andrew, it’s okay. I’ll be right next to you. Put your arm around me. I won’t let anything happen to you.”
Elizabeth tried to soften her tone, using her expertise as a psychiatrist to patiently reassure Andrew.
Hearing Elizabeth’s gentle voice and smelling the pleasant fragrance on her body when she got closer, Andrew’s tightly knitted brow slightly relaxed. The muscles in his entire body were still tense. He tried hard to relax, but his body and emotions were completely out of his control.
“Everyone, take it easy. It’s an accidental tripping operation. I’ve asked the staff to handle it, and I believe all will be well
soon.”
The party host’s voice rang out in the venue. Elizabeth’s face changed as she thought something was wrong.
Andrew would have a seizure later because of the sudden turning on of the lights. If that scene was seen by so many people, things definitely would head toward an uncontrollable situation.
Thinking of that, Elizabeth could not care less and suddenly took a few steps closer to Andrew. She stood on her tiptoes again and reached out to put her palm over Andrew’s eyes.
Andrew knitted his handsome brow. Just when he didn’t know what to do next, Elizabeth suddenly kissed him.
Her fresh and pleasant scent instantly lingered in his nose, and her soft body leaned on his strong chest. More intuitively. her soft and tender lips were now rubbing his lower lip again and again.
Andrew’s eyes were wide with shock. He felt the blood in his body start to rush to his head. The satisfying touch made him want to pry open the woman’s teeth and explore deeper.
At this time, with a snap sound, the electric switch was pushed back up. The dark hall instantly turned bright.
The evil desire that had been running around in Andrew’s body surprisingly did not explode because of the turning on of the lights. Andrew could not help but be slightly surprised as he felt his heart quiet.
He wondered what method Elizabeth had used to stop him from losing control of his emotions.
“It seems that she is really something. Maybe she can really cure me later,” Andrew thought,
Seeing that the imagined vicious Andrew did not appear, Elizabeth finally relaxed and let go of the hand over Andrew’s eyes. At the same time, she ended her kiss on Andrew’s soft lips.
The scene of the two of them just getting intimate fell into the eyes of everyone.
