Chapter 44
After the meal, Benjamin played chess with Andrew. Sophia sat beside Benjamin and occasionally discussed chess with him. It was obvious that she wanted to please Benjamin and leave a good impression on him.
“Liz, I asked the chef to brew some herbs for Andrew. You go to the kitchen and bring it over for Andrew”
After a game of chess, Benjamin instructed Elizabeth.
“Alright. Elizabeth nodded and walked toward the kitchen.
Henry, who had been silent and was ignored at the side, quickly followed Elizabeth into the kitchen.
“What are you doing here? Do you want me to call for help?”
Elizabeth was looking for a soup ladle when she turned around and saw the persistent Henry. She did not hide her rejection. and disgust for him.
Henry was already used to her angry look. He pursed his lips and looked at Sophia, who was trying her best to get Andrew’s
attention.
“Do you know who Sophia is?”
“It’s none of my business.” Elizabeth sneered.

“If the Hall family didn’t emigrate back then, then the one who would marry Andrew would be Sophia Sophia fell in love with Andrew when she was five years old. At that time, she followed behind us every day. Andrew also took good care of her. It was as if he treated her as his fiancée.”
Henry had long noticed Elizabeth’s displeasure, so he deliberately exaggerated the relationship between Andrew and Sophia
to make her feel bad.
“What does a five–year–old kid know about a fiancée? Henry, you must have watched too many stupid TV dramas, right?”
Elizabeth rolled her eyes at him. After helping Andrew scoop the soup, she went out.
Henry didn’t get angry even though he had failed to anger Elizabeth. He had another motive for coming there this time.
As the night deepened, Henry sent Sophia back first.
Andrew and Elizabeth also wanted to leave, but Benjamin said that Andrew was busy with work and rarely came over to stay. He asked them to stay there tonight.
Hence, the two of them, who had not slept in the same bed for a long time, were forced to sleep in the same room.
Because Andrew was in his first personality, Elizabeth knew that he wouldn’t do anything to her, so she was very at ease and chatted with him under the blanket.
As they chatted, Elizabeth fell asleep first.
Andrew looked at her peaceful sleeping face and could not help but turn to look at her a few more times.
He had to admit that Elizabeth was really very beautiful. Her lips were red and her teeth were white. Her long eyelashes cast a row of shadows on her eyes. Under her high and round nose bridge were her pink cherry lips. At this moment, her lips. were slightly parted as if she was waiting for someone to pluck them.
As he watched, Andrew felt his entire body heat up. It was as if a ball of unknown fire was running amok in his body, but it could not find an outlet to come out. Then, he suppressed it until his face turned red and his body temperature increased. Andrew grunted, then suddenly thought of the bowl of soup that his grandfather asked Elizabeth to serve him.
Benjamin was in such a hurry to have a grandchild. Seeing that Andrew and Elizabeth were progressing too slowly, he added something to the soup. His goal was to make Andrew and Elizabeth have sex so that Elizabeth could get pregnant with Andrew’s child
At the thought of this, Andrew frowned. He felt that Elizabeth, who was lying beside him, was so alluring. He had known before that she had a faint fragrance on her body, but now that he had drunk those things and his senses had become clear and sensitive, and this fragrance had turned into a fatal poison that was luring him closer to Elizabeth at all times.
He swallowed hard and reached out to touch Elizabeth’s face, but for some reason, the appearance of her tears and resistance surged into his mind, causing his hand to stop before touching her.
His body continued to heat up, and a certain part of his body began to clamor. Andrew knew very well that he could not stay there any longer. Otherwise, things would definitely develop to a point where he could not control them.
At this moment, Elizabeth, who was sleeping beside him, subconsciously turned her body.
Perhaps it was a habit of hers after being hugged by him for a few nights. She subconsciously burrowed into his arms and even wanted to reach out to hug his waist.
Her actions were undoubtedly setting Andrew’s body on fire. Andrew gritted his teeth and pushed Elizabeth away. Then, he

suddenly got up from the bed.
His movement woke Elizabeth up, who was sleeping soundly. She got up from the bed with a dumbfounded expression and looked at Andrew beside her.
The lights had not been turned off yet, so Elizabeth could clearly see Andrew’s current state.
He was sitting on the edge of the bed in a daze. His breathing was heavy and his face was flushed. Moreover, his face was covered in dense beads of sweat
Seeing him like this, Elizabeth’s heart skipped a beat. Her first reaction was to wonder if his illness had acted up again.
Elizabeth was so nervous that her face turned pale when she thought about how he had kissed and bitten her and tied her up when his illness acted up.
She fumbled for an ashtray on the bedside table, thinking that if Andrew dared to come over, she would smash him.
“I didn’t have a relapse. There was something wrong with the soup just now.”
Andrew seemed to have noticed it a long time ago. After saying that with bloodshot eyes, he got up and covered the important part with his hand. He turned around and staggered into the bathroom.
Upon hearing this and recalling Andrew’s actions just now, Elizabeth immediately reacted. A blush appeared on her fair face.
Hearing the sound of water running coming from the bathroom, she felt her heart begin to beat uncontrollably faster.
This had happened twice….
It was autumn. If he took a shower with cold water like this, he would catch a cold sooner or later….
Half an hour later, the sound of water running in the bathroom gradually stopped. Then, Andrew turned the doorknob and walked out.
He was wearing a pair of gray pajama pants, and his upper body was bare. One could even clearly see the water droplets attached to his muscles.
Elizabeth leaned against the bed and looked at him warily.
Seeing her like this, Andrew sighed helplessly.
“Don’t worry. I won’t touch you. I’m fine now.”
As he spoke, he walked to the other side of the bed, grabbed a pillow, and went straight to the study.
Seeing him leave, Elizabeth’s hand that was holding the blanket gradually loosened. For some reason, although she felt relieved, she was a little disappointed.
An indescribable feeling lingered in her heart. She shook her head and lifted the blanket to lie down, not wanting to delve deeper into this problem.
“Andrew, where are you going with a pillow in the middle of the night?”
Henry was sleeping next to them. When he heard the door open, he immediately came out to check on the situation.
