Chapter 69 You Always Want Your Man to Hurry Up
Aurelia licked her lips. "I don't want to see your phone, and you shouldn't look at mine either."
Nathaniel nodded slightly and forcefully placed the phone in her hand. "Whether you like to look at the phone or not, I must see your phone."
Aurelia chuckled in exasperation; he was so unreasonable, sometimes as childish as a kindergarten kid.
Without waiting for her response, Nathaniel reached into her pocket to retrieve her phone himself, curious about what someone had sent her and didn't want him to see.
His hand reached her thigh, making Aurelia flustered.
"Nathaniel, you're being unreasonable. I said I won't show you, and if you continue like this, I'll call Reed."
Nathaniel's large hand had already delved into her pocket, and Aurelia covered it with both hands, using all her strength to protect her phone.
Today, no matter what, she wouldn't let him see her phone; it was a matter of principle. Nathaniel was used to being domineering and couldn't tolerate anyone defying him.
The two of them tangled together.
"If you want to call Reed, go ahead and call!"
He knew she wouldn't dare to call; every time she returned to the Heilbronn Villa, she behaved like a docile rabbit.
With half of the phone snatched away, Aurelia's hands were struggling to keep it, but he provocatively taunted her.
"Reed, Reed..."
Aurelia decided to go all out and shouted towards the door, each call louder than the last.
The sound of fabric tearing violently echoed.
As soon as her voice stopped, she felt a sudden chill on her thigh.
Both of them froze.
A long strip of Aurelia's pants seam had split open on the side, and a piece of fabric from the pocket had been torn off, revealing her fair thigh.
Nathaniel held the torn piece of fabric in his hand, his throat tightening. At this moment, he had no intention of snatching the phone; his gaze was glued to that particular sight.
"Aurelia, I have self-control with you, but not much. If you tempt me like this, aren't you afraid I'll take you to bed?"
"Don't flatter yourself; I'd rather charm Bailey from the backyard than even consider seducing you."
Bailey was the dog Reed owned.
Nathaniel, glaring at the woman spewing harsh words before him, pressed her against the grand bed, leaning over her.
"Your tastes are quite peculiar. Do you even realize that Bailey is a female dog?" he remarked sharply.
Aurelia turned her head away, refusing to meet his gaze. "Even a dog is better than you."
She fed Bailey canned food, and Bailey wagged her tail in response. Every time the dog warmly welcomed her, Nathaniel only coldly demanded one thing from her, his expression merciless once his pants were buckled up.
Nathaniel felt a sense of insult brewing within him when he realized he had been compared to a dog by her, thinking, ‘This woman has grown increasingly audacious in my presence, speaking her mind without restraint, unafraid of provoking me. She deliberately uttered offensive remarks to unsettle me.’
"Bailey can't satisfy you."
He pressed down heavily.
Aurelia felt a sense of panic; what was he going to do now?
If he forced himself on her, the power difference between them was too great, and she couldn't escape. At this moment, she could only be grateful that the two little ones in her belly were behaving and not affected.
"Nathaniel, get up."
Her tone softened, no longer daring to confront him.
Nathaniel wouldn't let her off that easily. "You start it yourself; don't think you can escape!"
His undeniable body heat scorched her through the clothes, and Aurelia was panic-struck.
"Don't mess around; there are people outside."
"Lower your voice."
Aurelia was completely flustered.
"When will you get tired of this, Nathaniel?"
She thought that if he got tired, he might let her go.
Nathaniel alternated between light and heavy bites on her earlobe, and Aurelia felt herself surrendering again. She wasn't a person with strong desires, but she couldn't resist his temptations every time.
"You..."
Before she could finish her sentence, her mouth was sealed.
The knocking sound went unnoticed by both of them.
The door was pushed open from the outside. "Aurelia, did you just call me?"
Reed entered and saw them on the bed. He regretted coming here and thought he shouldn't have opened that door.
"You go on!"
Reed hurriedly left, feeling very pleased. He rubbed his hands together, feeling that the great-grandchild was on the way.
Aurelia's mind cleared a bit.
"Get up. Reed is outside."
Nathaniel turned over, breathing heavily as he lay down, his desire dissipating.
He rubbed his forehead, wondering how he had become so obsessed with lust. It was broad daylight; no one had drawn the curtains, and the door wasn't even locked, yet when he saw that fair thigh, his desire was uncontrollable.
Aurelia must have drugged him; just seeing a strand of her hair could arouse his desire.
She had truly ignited a flame of lust within him.
Taking advantage of his momentary daze, Aurelia quickly sat up to smoothen her clothes, which he had messed up. The top could be fixed, but the pants were beyond repair. Luckily, she had some clothes here as well.
She found a long skirt in the closet, but the zipper got stuck when she tried to put it on. Aurelia felt that it wasn't a good day to go out; misfortune always seemed to find her.
She tried many times, but the zipper didn't budge at all, and she was sweating profusely.
Nathaniel closed his eyes and relaxed; the desire inside him almost disappeared before he remembered that Aurelia had disappeared into the closet and hadn't come out for a while, not making a sound at all.
"Aurelia."
He called out, not hearing a response, and strode towards the closet with large steps.
Sitting in the closet, Aurelia felt her head spinning upon hearing his footsteps, feeling like a struggling prey watching a predator approach with no escape. Her hands were tied behind her back, and the zipper head was firmly stuck in the middle.
Nathaniel pushed open the glass door, his pupils trembling. He saw the woman with her back to the door, revealing a beautiful back and glowing skin.
He felt a rush of desire throughout his body. The desire that had just been extinguished was reignited.
He thought she did that on purpose.
"Aurelia, what are you doing?"
Aurelia abruptly turned around, her palms sweaty and nervous.
"Nothing."
Nathaniel squinted his eyes, walking over with meaningful intent. "Do you need help?"
Aurelia hesitated for a moment; she did need help.
"My zipper is stuck."
Nathaniel cleared his throat, his gaze falling on her slightly flustered face.
"Turn around."
Aurelia gently turned around, her hand reaching behind to protect the lower part of the zipper, afraid he might pull it down further, which was exactly what he intended to do.
"Aurelia, are you so afraid of me?"
His voice was close to her ear, his warm breath brushing against her neck. Aurelia was stunned for a few seconds, not knowing how to respond; she was genuinely afraid.
Feeling his hand against her back, working on the zipper, Aurelia's entire back stiffened, not daring to breathe heavily.
"Can you hurry up?"
After speaking, she heard him chuckle mischievously from behind. "You always want your man to hurry up; if I hurry up, you won't be comfortable."
