Dangerous Desire The CEO’s Hidden Woman

Chapter 123: Where Is The Baby



Francis put down his cup of tea and tried to explain, “Oh, don’t think anything of it, mother. She is not angry with you. She was feeling under the weather this morning, and that’s why she’s not here with me right now. You’re overthinking it. Please, mother, just relax. You will see your grandson in due course.”

“So, Scarlett couldn’t come, and Carlos wouldn’t either?” Francis’s father was doubtful.

“He wasn’t feeling the best either.”

“Have you taken him to see the doctor?” His father asked, concerned. Francis’s father cared for Carlos deeply– after all, he was Francis’s first child. In addition, he didn’t think that Scarlett and Francis’s match was scandalous like the rest of the family did. He did, however, wonder if Scarlett was too young for Francis. What would become of him if she moved on to greener pastures in due time– to another man, to build a whole new family? She had time, but Francis did not.

“Of course. And the doctor said it was nothing serious. So, don’t worry, father. I will bring him along sometime soon. Please be patient.”

Francis’s parents didn’t say anything more; instead, they remained silent.

Back at home, Scarlett and Carlos were having fun. Instead of taking his usual midday nap, Carlos was full of energy and smiles that day.

“Don’t you like your daddy best?” She cooed as she held him up in her arms.

“Mummy…” He said as he came close to touch her neck. It was almost as if he was trying to flatter Scarlett.

“Wow, who did you learn that from? All this flattery?”

“Who else he can learn from except you?” A booming voice said.

It was Francis. On hearing that familiar male voice, Carlos turned around.

“Daddy…” He was happily drooling now.

Francis took off his coat and put it in the closet by the door. Then, he came over to take the baby from Scarlett. However, before Scarlett let him go, the baby had struggled to stand up and then crawled toward Francis as quickly as possible– all of his own accord.

“You bad boy!” She pouted angrily.

Francis laughed at the look on Scarlett’s face, and then he took the baby from her arms. He said to Scarlett, “It’s getting pretty hot here these days. Who don’t we go find someplace cooler to go on vacation?”

“You want to go on vacation? Really? Is that what you rich men are always doing? Can I bathe in hot springs or play games on some beach?”

“Oh, shush, you know it’s not always like that. You’re embarrassing me now!” Francis said as he tousled her hair playfully.

“Oh, don’t mind me, Mr. Sandler,” Scarlett said, smiling mischievously and tugging on Francis’s arms.

“Aren’t you afraid that you’ll get sunburned? It’s such a hot day! And you want to play games? What games?”

“I don’t know… maybe baseball? Or basketball? Which one would you prefer?”

Francis just stayed quiet and didn’t answer her. Because of his silence, Scarlett grew nervous and asked, “It can’t be that you don’t know how to play, right?” She looked him up and down and continued, “Hmm, I guess it could be that… You’re pretty old, I suppose…” She said uncertainty.

“Are you suggesting that I’m old? You think I’m not fit and strong enough?” Francis said angrily.

When Scarlett noticed that he was angry, she instantly explained, “Of course not. I’m just teasing. You know I would never suggest that you’re not strong enough to do something.

“Not one more word out of you… or you’ll see just how strong I am. You understand me, little girl?” Francis said, his voice was raised.

“Oh, darling, are you mad now? I’m just kidding. You are very handsome! And look, you son is drooling over you!” She wisely changed the subject and pointed at the baby.

“Oh, please! Scarlett, I understand what you’re saying. Consider your message received.” He winked at her.

It was a bad habit of hers– she would manage to anger Francis every day. Now, she had earned his wrath, and she knew she wouldn’t be getting much sleep that night. When he became angry, he didn’t lash out at her physically. Instead, his libido would take center stage.

At night, Francis accompanied the baby to sleep.

Since Scarlett was tired from having played with Carlos all afternoon, she was glad to be able to slip into the bathroom for a quick shower.

It was a huge bathtub– big enough for two people. Scarlett took a look at the time, it was half-past seven now, so she still had enough time to take a luxurious bubble bath.

She got the hot water ready and put some bath salts and rose petals into it. After that, she lit two yellow candles to place on either side. Then, slowly, she immersed herself.

While she was enjoying herself, the bathroom door was pulled open, and Francis came in. His sudden break-in startled her, and she felt embarrassed to be naked in front of him.

“Where is the baby? Did he fall asleep?”

“Yeah. He seemed tired today, so he fell asleep within ten minutes.” He looked down at her with his hands in his pocket.

“Well… do you want to take a bath? Can you wait a minute? I will be done very soon!”

After that, she grabbed the bath towel and got ready to leave the bathroom.

But it was too late. Francis held Scarlett from behind and touched her face gently. With one hand, he traced a line up from her knees to her thighs, taking extra care to linger where he knew she craved him most.

“What did you say this afternoon?” He smiled and asked her in a low voice.NôvelDrama.Org owns this.

“I was just kidding….” Scarlett murmured, passion already overtaking her. She could barely manage a sentence.

“No, my babe, I have to prove to you that I’m strong enough to satisfy you. Otherwise, you will tease me again! Now it’s my turn to tease you….”

Francis pulled away her towel and started kissing her all over.

There was no turning back then.
