Chapter 163 Another Affair With Lillian
Having missed such a promising chance with Lillian, Kevin now felt deeply apprehensive. He wondered if, now that Lillian had cooled down from the initial excitement, she would still maintain their clandestine relationship. Should Lillian have regained her senses? Would it mean wasting such a wonderful opportunity once more?
Meanwhile, at the other end of the phone, Lillian, having just washed up and changed into her nightclothes, lay wide awake, tossing and turning.
The memory of her recent wild antics with her son-in-law Kevin made Lillian's heart race with nerves, her heart pounding in her chest. As her phone screen lit up, Lillian nervously picked it up for a quick glance.
Seeing a message from her son-in-law, Kevin, Lillian immediately felt jittery and shy. She took a deep breath and unconsciously trembled as she held the phone with her elegant hand.
Looking at the phone screen, Lillian frowned in confusion, stroking her chest while hesitating for a moment, and eventually still turning on the phone.
Looking at the message sent by her son-in-law, Kevin, Lillian tightly pursed her red lips, and her restless body couldn't help but tremble.
In the end, Lillian still chose to reply with shame.
She simply couldn't resist the temptation of her son-in-law's desire.
Even if she knew that there was a cliff of no return in front of her, Lillian couldn't restrain her restlessness and couldn't help but want to take that sinful step.
Happy Every Day (Mother-in-law Lillian): [Just finished bathing and ready to sleep.]
Kevin looked at his mother-in-law Lillian's reply and immediately excitedly replied: [Mom, Sofia should be asleep, right?]
Kevin's mind was consumed with thoughts of sneaking into his mother-in-law's bedroom, yet he was at a loss on how to approach his mother-in-law. He had to tread lightly, gauging Lillian's disposition first.
Happy Every Day (Mother-in-law Lillian): [She should be asleep. Scarlett is asleep, right?]
Seeing his mother-in-law's reply, Kevin immediately shook with excitement, knowing he still had a chance.
Kevin: [Mom, I really can't sleep; I feel so uncomfortable. I want to come and talk to you.]
After sending the message, Kevin nervously stared at the screen, waiting for Lillian to agree to his request. Once she agreed, he would immediately sneak downstairs to find his mother-in-law for an affair.
After a brief wait without a response from Lillian, Kevin's nerves flared up once more, his heart pounding fiercely. What felt like mere minutes seemed to stretch into hours.
Finally, Lillian replied to the message.
Happy Every Day (Mother-in-law Lillian): [I'm having trouble sleeping as well, but it's late now. Let's talk tomorrow.]
Kevin, somewhat disappointed by the rejection, let out a sigh. However, upon seeing Lillian's message, he sensed a hint of wavering.
Kevin: [Mom, I really need to talk to you. I'm coming down now. Please don't lock the door. I'll sneak over to see you. Let's not alert Sofia.]
Brazen in his approach, Kevin directly messaged Lillian, even hinting at a veiled threat. His words implied that if she didn't comply, it would arouse Sofia's suspicions.
Having already crossed a line a moment earlier, Kevin found it hard to believe that his mother-in-law would reject him. Sometimes, he thought, a man needed to be assertive, even a bit domineering, to conquer a woman.
Happy Every Day (Mother-in-law Lillian): [No, Kevin! Please don't do this. It's too risky! I can't bear it. You really scared me just now! Can we please not do this?]
This time, Lillian immediately replied to the message. It could be seen that Lillian was very nervous and very scared.
Happy Every Day (Mother-in-law Lillian): [ Kevin, calm down. What happened just now was a moment of impulse on my part. I regret it very much now. We can't go on like this. It's too unfair to Scarlett and your dad. Now, just pretend that nothing happened between us before, okay?]
Lillian sent another message.
Glancing at his phone, Kevin made a firm decision to shut off the screen. Checking once more that Scarlett was sound asleep, he steeled himself, quietly opened the door, and tiptoed downstairs.
The moon was shining brightly tonight, and after adjusting to the darkness for a moment, Kevin descended the stairs swiftly. With each step, his mood grew increasingly tense and exhilarated.
In the serene night, Kevin could even hear the quickened pace of his own heartbeat.
Finally, he reached the second floor in the darkness. His hand trembled as he reached for the door handle, carefully and slowly pressing it down. With bated breath and utmost gentleness, he pushed the door of the hallway open just enough for a person to slip through, then softly left it ajar.
This deliberate action took Kevin five to six minutes, and it left him sweating profusely and his heart racing.
Casting a quick glance at Sofia's bedroom door, which was shrouded in darkness, Kevin assumed that she was already asleep.
After eavesdropping on Sofia's door for a while and confirming there was no movement inside, Kevin stealthily made his way to his mother-in-law's bedroom door. Gently gripping the bedroom handle, with a slight exertion, a faint click resonated from the handle.
The door was open.
