1273 Words
"Yes!" Gina replied bravely. He lifted her long drooping hair with his sturdy arms, wrapping her with his slender fingers. Stephen's voice was hoarse, and his breath fell on the tip of Gina's nose, "Who kept asking me to stop that night?" Gina's body was tense. She felt as though there was a monster pressing on her. "Go away!" Her beautiful cat-like eyes overflowed with sparks of anger as she roared in rage. The man looked at her condescendingly and said slowly, "You were the one who made the first move..." "I just wanted photos with you. Who asked you to..." Gina's temples were bulging, and her breath started to lose its' rhythm. Suddenly, Stephen's phone rang. He hung up straight. Soon, the phone rang again. "It keeps ringing. It must be something urgent. You should answer your call first." Gina asked him to pick it up. She was 80% sure that it was one of his clients. She did not want him to miss a golden opportunity that he might not get anymore. Stephen straightened up and took out his mobile phone. He glanced at it, then answered the call with a cold voice. "Wait. We'll be there soon." Gina was already standing outside the car as he turned around, leaning on the window and waving at him. "You look perfect when you smile. If you smile more, perhaps your business will flourish. Goodbye!" She took the opportunity as he stood there frozen. Gina threw a kiss and fled the scene! -In a private room in the Imperial Hotel- Several men, intimate with Stephen like his brothers, were playing some card games. When he came in, Stephen had a gloomy face. And he sat by the side alone, drinking red wine. Simon Quintane, a police officer, was also usually a severe man. He glanced at the cards in his hand and then looked at Stephen. "Looking at Stephen's state, I'm pretty sure he returned home empty-handed." Stephen's thin lips were dyed crimson with red wine. His eyes narrowed, and he did not speak. Shawn Turane looked more beautiful than a woman, and the sapphire studs on his ears shone brilliantly when he turned his head to the side. "This is nothing new. What's new is that someone has been getting laid!" "Stop that nonsense!" The eldest of them all, Qiraun Wayne, kicked him under the table and warned him to shut up by glaring at him. Everyone knew about Stephen's disinterest in women. Speaking about that as a joke meant searching for death. Shawn stomped his feet in pain, "Bro, I'm serious." Simon looked severe, but his eyes were full of surprise. He picked up an unused card and said, "I need evidence." Both of them stared at Shawn. Just as Shawn wanted to create suspense, he heard the man sitting next to him. "Shawn is right." "Pfft!" Qiraun spat his sip of tea on Shawn. Shawn, the most beautiful looking of them all, stood up and wailed. "Bro, this is my new shirt!" "I'll pay for that!" Qiraun said gloomily, "Alas, I lost that bet!" Simon frowned and asked, "You made a bet again?" Qiraun nodded bitterly. He was a doctor, and no one knew Stephen's body better than him. Since Summer disappeared, he has not batted an eye on any women. He had tried all kinds of medicines and watched erotic videos worldwide. Everyone thought that Stephen would live the rest of his life just like that. That's why he took the bet with Shawn, but he didn't expect this... "I'm really curious. What kind of woman can be better than my medical skills!" Qiraun was dissatisfied. "It's my wife I have been married to for a year." Stephen swirled his wine glass, and his lips curled into a smile that made the three of them envious and spiteful. Simon put down the cards in his hand, "The one arranged by your uncle?" The man took a sip of red wine. His gesture answered Simon's question. "How did this happen? When Stephen was with Summer, his uncle disagreed. Is this woman clean?" Shawn asked bluntly. Stephen had this concern before he met Gina. Now, she's the one who healed his disinterest in s*x. Was there anything tricky about it? As soon as Shawn mentioned the name "Summer", Stephen's eyes immediately turned cold. Simon warned Shawn with a warning stare. Stephen's bottom line was not to be crossed. The name, Summer, cannot be mentioned in front of Stephen. Sure enough, the cold cast on Stephen's face became gloomier, and his knuckles turned white while holding the wine glass. The brothers looked at each other. They nudged each other, but no one dared to speak to break the silence. Click. The wine glass was forcibly broken in half by Stephen. Stephen got up and threw the broken wine glass on the table, "I am busy, I'll go first, and it's on me tonight." Both of them stared at Shawn. Shawn touched his head aggrievedly, "I'm just telling the truth." "How dare you say it!" Simon kicked him. Qiraun was the father figure of the group. He was worried about Stephen. He followed him out and didn't speak until he was sent to the gate. "I know you went abroad all these years to look for Summer, but..." Only Stephen has seen Summer alone. It was doubtful whether there was such a person. Qiraun hesitated and then changed his words, "I'm glad you've found your life again but heed my words. You have to be on guard." "I know." Stephen's deep eyes were particularly solemn in the night. Qiraun knew that Stephen would have known what he was doing. He didn't go on. And he smiled instead, "In this case, we all need some sparks in life. Let me know if you need anything." "I'm doing good." Seeing the shocked expression on Qiraun's face because Stephen's having s*x again, Stephen raised a sneer. ... Gina called Gale after she got into a taxi. "Mr. Gale, did you tell him what happened this afternoon?" "Madam?" Gale replied politely, "Mr. Hawke has been in a meeting in the afternoon. I have not reported about it yet." "Oh…" Gina was afraid the driver would hear her talking, so she covered the receiver and whispered, "Then don't tell him first, okay?" Gale was rendered speechless. He didn't say a word, but he knew what was happening. "Madam, do you have any other plans?" "Um..." Gina bit her lips and lied, "The child I'm bearing now is not well… I could take care of him if it were for myself. But if Mr. Hawke wants it, he must be healthy, right?" "That's right, but..." "So, I decided to look for a good gene to impregnate myself." Gale supported his forehead and said with relief, "Madam, the child is still young, so it's not certain whether there are any flaws. Why don't we wait until the child is a little older, and we'll do a thorough examination?" Gina gritted her lips. Even if she failed to persuade him to give up on this child, she could accidentally miscarry. She held the final decision after all. Besides, if he knew she was pregnant now, at least he wouldn't bother her. She planned to buy more time. "Okay, I'll just do as you said." Gina nodded, "However, I need to rest during my pregnancy. It would be best if he wouldn't visit me." "I'll tell him that." Gale laughed in his heart. That's her husband's house, and she is Mrs. Hawke. But she's trying to bar the master from his place?
