Chapter 38
38 Ch. 38 Quick-witted Lori (part 2)
Poor Richard. He had to endure his need first and enjoy this suffering. It felt like someone served your favorite mouth-watering meal that made your hungry stomach rumble with enthusiasm, but you were not allowed to eat it.
That was what Richard was experiencing right now. Before he tasted how delicious this oriented girl’s body was, Richard had never felt hungry nor had the desire to make love to women. But ever since he had tasted the young girl, he had always had wet dreams that shook his faith.
The woman who often accompanied him to sleep in his beautiful dreams had officially become his wife, but he still couldn’t touch her. It was all because of his father canceling their marriage registration!
Moreover, he wasn’t a scumbag who liked forcing women to sleep with him. He hated the act of rape, and Richard always stood up for ravishing victims and ensured the perpetrators got the punishment they deserved for their crimes.
That’s why Richard never forced but tried to get into his wife’s heart by teasing her, seducing her, and occasionally stealing small kisses when she was off guard.
Unfortunately, he couldn’t do it when it was just the two because the girl blatantly refused his touch. But with Lori’s help, he was a stupid man to let go of this rare chance.
And now the woman herself took the initiative to approach him. Well, he knew his wife’s thoughts were only to persuade their daughter, who was currently sulking, so Anxia was unaware of their closeness.
“Lori, please, forgive me. I will do whatever you want. Hmm?”
Lori lifted her head from Richard’s shoulder and turned to her mother with sparkling eyes. “Does that mean you want to take a photo by kissing my cheek?”
.....
“Hmm. I will do it.”
“Twice?”
“Not just twice, even a hundred times. I’ll do it.” she hoped she did it without Richard, though.
“You’re not lying?”
“Have I ever lied to you?”
Don’t you often lie to your daughter? Thought Richard.
“Pinky promise?”
“Pinky promise!” Anxia twisted her pinky finger against her daughter’s tiny one and continued, “But not today. Once is enough for today.” she stated with a firm look.
“Okay. Let’s take another photo.” Lori cheered and stood on the seat, so her head was level with her parents’ faces. “Daddy, can I hold the bar?”
“Can you hold it? It’s a bit heavy.”
“I can do it!” Lori exclaimed, putting all her strength into holding the iron phone bar in her tiny hands. “One... two...” Lori started to count, making Richard and Anxia get into position. “Th...aaa...”
Just as Lori shouted number ‘three,’ her hands became weak, and the much longer bar fell, causing her to suddenly crouch and get down from the chair to pick up the dropped smartphone. Two adults, unaware of this unexpected accident, still moved to kiss Lori’s cheek. But because Lori had crouched down, their target lips were wrong, and now the two lips were joint, startling Anxia with a flushed face.
Both of them were too fixated on their situation and neither moved. The opportunist Richard took this opportunity by sticking out his tongue to lick the sweet lips he had longed for.
Instantly Anxia couldn’t breathe and immediately shifted her ass while raising one hand to slap her husband. Richard had expected it so he could hold his wife’s hand before the slap landed on his cheek.
Richard forgot that Anxia was a professional hitman, so he didn’t expect Anxia not to give up and punch him in the stomach with her other hand.
“Ugh!” Richard groaned in pain as he curled up against his hurting belly.
This woman did not reduce her strength when hitting him left Richard speechless.
“Daddy? What happen?” Lori turned around when she heard a painful groan from her father. Lori looked suspiciously at her mother; her suspicions intensified when she saw her mother’s flat and relaxed expression.
Her mother did it again! Why couldn’t she have a normal mother that didn’t beat people around?
Lori gave the phone bar to Anxia and sat in the middle between her parents. Anxia was more than happy when her daughter decided to sit next to her. That way, she wouldn’t have to feel frustrated with that shameless man who always stole opportunities to take advantage of her.
Lori’s purpose for sitting there was so that her mother wouldn’t hit her father again. It would do no good if Richard started to change his mind to give her a whole family.
Lori patted her father’s shoulder with her tiny hand while asking softly.
“Are you okay, daddy?”
Richard took a deep breath and straightened himself up again. He glanced briefly at Anxia, who was now looking at the right side of the scene.
“I’m fine baby girl. It looks like your mommy loves me too much, so she is a bit aggressive today.”
Anxia wanted to vomit blood at this absurd sentence. What did he mean by saying she loved him too much and acted aggressively? How aggressive is that?!
“Aggressive? What’s that?” Luckily little Lori still hasn’t saved the illegitimate vocabulary so the child won’t understand the meaning of the words of this bastard’s cunning words.
“It means that your mommy kissed me with...hmph!” His words were cut short when Anxia shifted closer and covered his mouth with one hand.
“Lori, don’t listen to him. And you! What do you teach a child?!”
“Eh? So what, then? Mommy kissed you with what?”
Anxia’s face suddenly heated up. Not because of her daughter’s innocent question but because this shameless husband licked her palm as if her hand was a lollypop.
Anxia gave a deadly stare at Richard to warn him and stop his actions through her eyes.
But, instead of being intimidated, Anxia felt the man smiling crookedly under her palms, making her emotions run wild.
“Daddy, go on. How did mommy kiss you?” inquired Lori, who was inquisitive about her father’s ambiguous remark.
This made Anxia feel even more dilemma. On the one hand, she wanted to get her hands off her husband’s sensual tongue right away, but she didn’t want him to continue with absurd explanations that were not good for a baby to hear.
Anxia didn’t move as she felt Richard sucking and biting her skin with sensual movements that made her skin crawl.
Anxia kept glaring at Richard hoping he would stop his actions soon. But the man challenged her back with a mischievous glint as if to tell her, ‘this is your punishment for punching me.’
Ugh! If Lori hadn’t been here or seen them, no doubt Anxia would have thrown Richard out of this boat and left him here!
“Ah, it’s so unfair! Why did you play by yourself without me?” sulked Lori while pouting her mouth adorably.
To be truth, she didn’t mind that her parents decided to play by themselves. Instead, it would be good if they had a good relationship.
However, she knew her mother was irritated and frustrated even though she didn’t know the reason. Hence, she pretended to be sulking as she was confident her parents would join hands to ease her tantrum.
As expected, Richard shifted his head to his daughter and smiled at her sweetly. Even though her mother still had not calm, at least, Anxia wouldn’t do anything funny to make Richard change his mind.
“Of course not, baby girl. How could we leave you alone, our starshine and little angel? Shall we go to the ice cream shop? How do you like that? We have entered the urban area.”
Lori turned her head, and it was true what her father said. She could see many houses and churches on both sides, instead of farms or glasses houses for fruit factories.
“Yeah! Ice cream! I love ice cream!”
Richard was about to get up to take over the wheel, but Anxia stopped him and pulled him until Richard sat back down in his position.
“What is it?”
Without answering, Anxia wiped her saliva-stained hand onto the man’s shirt, making Richard want laugh out loud. How could this well-trained assassin be this adorable?
On the other hand, Anxia made sure her hands were clean of germs while putting on a disgusted expression.
What an asshole! How dare he touch her repeatedly in front of their daughter?
What an advantage-taker bastard!
“What’s wrong, mommy? What’s wrong with your hand?”
“It’s nothing, sweety. There are bacteria on my hands.”
“Oh. So, why do you wipe it on daddy’s clothes?” with an innocent face, Lori asked again.
Lori’s clueless face caused Anxia to be speechless, making Richard barely could hold his hidden laughter.
Really. He didn’t know whether his baby girl was an angel or a devil. Lori was an angel to Richard but, perhaps, a little devil for Anxia.
Anxia felt her own daughter had hit her bottom line and wished to answer with another sarcastic answer, but Richard beat her to it.
“That’s because mommy loves me so much that she can’t be away from me.”
SLAP!!
