Chapter 16: Listening Only to My Sister-in-Law's Words.
Seeing that Henry was not intentional, and certainly not pretending, Emily's anger subsided by half. However, with Andrew by his side, she still said calmly, "Didn't we agree to go shopping for clothes after dinner?"
Henry impatiently replied, "Why do we need to buy clothes? I'm going home tomorrow, and these clothes are fine. I want to sleep."
"Then you're not going to school tomorrow?" Emily retorted, "I told you, if you wear these clothes, you'll only embarrass your brother!"
At this moment, Andrew interjected, "Forget it, let him sleep. Let's just check the size of his clothes and we can buy them."
"No way!" Emily insisted, "Buying clothes for him is already such a hassle. Should we also bring the food to his bed and feed him during meals?"
Henry thought to himself, "Isn't she just being difficult? I didn't ask her to buy me clothes, did I?"
Seeing Henry with his eyes closed, Andrew was about to take Emily outside when suddenly Henry sat up. He was covered in a blanket, wearing a vest underneath.
This sudden movement exposed his chest hair, which made Emily blush. To hide her embarrassment, Emily turned and walked towards the door.
Andrew then said, "If you really want to sleep, then go ahead. I'll go buy the clothes with your sister-in-law."
Henry silently put on his clothes and walked straight towards the door.
Andrew was puzzled: "Is it a case of one thing suppressing another?"
If that's the case, then he had found the spell that bound him!
With this thought, a smug smile flashed across Andrew's lips.
If Emily could really control Henry, then Andrew had successfully completed the task assigned by the professor, and his promotion to associate professor should be assured!
Of course, he also hoped that Henry's life would take the right path from now on.
Although he didn't have much brotherly affection for Henry, he was still a kind person.
Henry's stubbornness was his fatal flaw.
With such a brother around, the school's leaders and colleagues would probably be wary of him as well.
Driving in the city, a small car is more convenient than a big one.
After Emily left, she directly opened her own compact car.
After Andrew opened the passenger door, he politely gestured for Henry to sit, and Henry directly opened the back seat door and got in.
As soon as he leaned in, he was hit by Emily's faint and elegant fragrance, even stronger than before.
Taking a deep breath, it felt as if he was lying in Emily's embrace.
This aroused a strong desire for Emily's body within him!
However, he was well aware.
No matter what his relationship with Andrew was, and even if they were not blood brothers, he couldn't have any intentions towards Emily.
He forced his brain to conjure up the image of Isabelle.
Isabelle, who was too slender, was not in the same league as the sexy Emily, but her delicate face, fair skin, and the perfume that emanated from her body, which was more intoxicating than Emily's, had always lingered in Henry's olfactory system.
If fantasizing about being in Emily's embrace brought a sense of comfort, then lying on Isabelle would definitely showcase his sense of accomplishment as a man!
Henry began to imagine scenes of himself with Isabelle.
However, before long, Isabelle's image in his mind transformed into that of Lisa.
It had been six years. He wondered how Lisa was doing.
Thinking about what Andrew had said, that he had visited the village a couple of years ago, Henry considered asking, but then decided against it. After all, he would be able to go back soon.
In reality, Henry had never been with a woman, nor had he experienced the pleasure of being with one...
Just as he was lost in his thoughts, a man's rough voice suddenly sounded in his ears: "Damn it, if you can't drive, stay off the road!"
A luxury car was driving parallel to Emily's car. The passenger side window was already rolled down, and a man in his thirties, with slicked-back hair and a successful appearance, was glaring fiercely at Emily, who was driving.
The city roads were narrow, with a dividing barrier in the middle. Since Emily usually commuted in Andrew's car, she rarely drove herself, and her skills were indeed limited, so she was driving slowly.
Coincidentally, there was a utility vehicle transporting recyclables driving alongside Emily's car, trailing slightly behind by half a car length.
The luxury car honked a few times behind Emily's car, hoping she would accelerate so he could change lanes and overtake the utility vehicle.
But Emily didn't dare to speed up and maintained a steady pace.
It took a few hundred meters before the luxury car finally passed the utility vehicle. After changing lanes and overtaking from behind, the man in the luxury car immediately rolled down his window and started cursing at Emily.
