No One But You

Chapter 47 Why Do You Want To Marry Me

I had too many chicken wings, so I gave up dinner. Lucy’s fried chicken wings smell filled the whole

house, I had to sit upstairs on the terrace of the room to avoid the smell.

Calvin did not have dinner at home in the evening. He had social engagements which he had to attend.

I was awake when he came back, but I pretended to be asleep and kept silent with my eyes closed.

He went to take a bath and changed his clothes, and after a while lay down beside me.

I deliberately made loud breathing noises to indicate that I was asleep.

He turned off the light, and when I was about to roll over to sleep, I heard his voice on the back of my

head, “I know you're awake." C0ntent © 2024 (N/ô)velDrama.Org.

I had to open my eyes, “How do you know?"

"When you fall asleep, you don't breathe as hard."

"How do you know how I breathe when I'm asleep?"

"Because I saw it. I watched you for three hours when you were asleep."

"I didn't expect that you had such a hobby." He seemed to have something to say to me, and I had

something to ask him.

“Why do you want to marry me? You have used me as a cover to refuse the marriage of the Dixon

Family. Now no one will force you to marry her, so there is no need for you to marry me."

“Is there no second reason for marrying you?"

“Don't tell me you love me." I laughed so hard that I almost hit my head against the back wall.

He looked at me quietly and smiled. Gradually my eyes became accustomed to the darkness and I saw

a pair of eagle-like eyes.

His eyes burned small fires all year round, and I remembered Mrs. Knight describing a fire on my body

that would burn Calvin and myself.

But she was wrong. If I was killed by fire one day, it must be the fire of Calvin.

And I shut up moodily, and all at once he put an arm round my waist, and drew me into his bosom, and

kissed me.

I once warned him not to kiss me in bed, because kissing can get out of hand.

But he wouldn't listen, and every time he had to take himself out on the terrace and stand in the cool air

to cool himself down.

He did it again. He kissed me and with his other hand undid my buttons uncontrollably. I let him do it

without struggling.

When he kissed all the way to my neck, he suddenly calmed down again, and then helped me button

one button after another.

Sometimes I really admired his endurance. It was hard to control himself.

He ended up with his hands on the bed and his body hanging out looking at me.

He looked at me for a moment and then got out of bed to smoke on the terrace. Then he came back to

the bed with the faint smell of tobacco.

I touched his hand. He was standing on the terrace in his thin nightshirt, and his arms were cold from

the wind.

"It's cooler now?" I asked him slowly.

Suddenly he answered the questions I had asked him, “Why do I want to I marry you? Because I

haven't slept enough with you yet, and I have to wait until you give birth to a child to sleep with you

legitimately. Is that enough?”

"Enough." I nodded.

He lay down and continued to hold me. I nestled in his arms with my back against him. His face hid in

my tangled hair.

This was a position that we often sleep in, and it made me feel safe.

I didn't know if his answer was an answer, but I regretted why I asked this question.

Knowing that there was probably no answer to that question.

And Calvin may not even know it.

But I had to ask.

If someone wanted to marry me, I would marry him.

What bother to ask such a question?

Mrs. Knight said I didn't love Calvin.

I thought it didn't matter. At least I didn't hate him and enjoyed spending time with him.

The divorce between Daniel and me was delayed indefinitely. Knowing that he would not divorce me for

the time being, I did not bother to find him. I just needed to pretend there was no such a person.

If he didn't mind his wife living with another man, I didn't mind either.

Calvin and I would never talk about the future things, and that he loved me or not.

I had a sense of drift along. If he was willing to keep me, I would be kept be him. Althout I spent a lot of

money, he would love to.

I completely lead a canary life. Calvin went to work in daytimes and I stayed at home to watch TV and

play games.

I was so bored. Lucy also often nag me that either lying down or sitting, it was not conducive to the

health of the fetus.

I then walked in the community. The villa green was like a park. The house was few. A large piece of

land only had a dozen of houses, so the price of the houses here were quite high.

I was wandering in the community, where there were full of bamboo, which was a large green and still

luxuriant in the winter.

But I had always been very vulgar. I was unable to enjoy the beautiful scenery. I wasconcerned about

the young bamboo’s branches and leaves can be eaten, which tasted like sugar cane.

So I walked around the edge of the bamboo forest, trying to find one or two that weren't quite grown, to

see if they were edible.

When I was doing so, there were several women chatting beside me. They lived in this community, but

I didn't know them well and didn't talk with them.

I thought I heard them talking about me.

"Did you see that woman? The one with the big belly."

"She seems to belong to Mr. Knight of DonHiu Group."

"You know what? This woman is a mistress, and she has a family of her own, but she comes here to

give birth to a child."

"I heard she was a journalist. She is good at picking up guys?"

"Yes, Calvin had a girlfriend, but she destroyed their relationship."

I suddenly turned around and looked at them with a smile and said, “Since I can destroy their

relationship, it was a wrong relationship, am I right?"

They were frightened becase I suddenly spoke. A woman was still holding a dog in her arms. Since she

had not stood still, the dog fell out of her arms to the ground with a scream.

They did not expect that a mistress spoke to them shameless.

"You, you, you..." They pointed at my nose, but couldn’t say a word.

"What? Doesn't it feel good to be on the top of your moral to blame us?" Anyway I was idle and bored.

And there was one to talk to in a large community. These several women were good for me spend my

time.

"This person is really shameless. She is righteous even if she destroyed other’s relationship!" The

woman holding the dog didn’t dare to tell me, but turned her head and said to the people around her.

"Now the mistesses all feel they are righteous."

"They are." I felt bored if they did not talk to me. I looked closely at the face of the woman I was talking

to. "Oh, now that I remember, I saw your husband getting drunk and being driven home by a woman

that day."

“What did you say?” That woman roared immediately, “Nonsence!”
