The Second Love

Chapter 336 One Kiss Can't Solve The Problem, Then Two

"Honey, are you jealous? Jealous of me and your mom?" Although the room was pitch black and I couldn't see anything, I couldn't help but turn my head and fix my gaze on Dominic Hartnell's face. Hmm... I didn't mean anything else, I just wanted to see what expression a grown man would have when he's jealous of his own wife and mother. Just the thought of it made me find it both amusing and ridiculous. Who does that? It's completely unreasonable to be jealous like that. One of the most difficult problems to solve since ancient times is the relationship between a mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, right? But now, I'm almost as close to my mother-in-law as a daughter, shouldn't that be a cause for celebration?Or maybe Dominic Hartnell has a masochistic tendency, enjoying the kind of tension between me and his mother where eyes are not eyes and noses are not noses? The questions kept coming, causing chaos. If that's really the case... I think Dominic Hartnell either has a problem or is in the process of developing one. I don't know if Dominic Hartnell did it on purpose or not, but he stayed silent for a while before responding with a question that didn't answer mine, "Wife, I feel like you don't love me as much as before." I was stunned for a moment, feeling like my scalp was about to explode. Even though I was covered with a thin blanket, my arms still broke out in goosebumps. What does this obviously aggrieved tone mean? Is he seeking comfort or a hug? I'm starting to suspect that this Dominic Hartnell has been replaced by someone else. Why is his behavior so strange? It was perfectly normal before today."Um... where did you feel that from? How am I not loving you anymore?" I couldn't help but throw the question back at him, feeling both amused and speechless. "From everywhere today." I couldn't hold back anymore. I reached over and pushed him to the side, then pinched his waist, finding it both funny and speechless. "After all that, you're just jealous?" "Do you have to be like this? Can't I have a good relationship with your mom without you being jealous? Are you being reasonable?" Dominic Hartnell reached out his arm and gently pulled me into his embrace, placing one hand behind my head. In the dim moonlight, starting from the center of my forehead, to my eyebrows, then my eyes, nose, and finally, his moist and soft lips stopped at my lips. "Mmm..."I instinctively pressed my lips against Dominic Hartnell's and responded. Suddenly, a sentence I had read in a novel popped into my mind. Between us, as long as we still have each other in our hearts, there is no problem that a kiss cannot solve. And if there is, then two kisses, until... it is resolved. At that moment, I was captivated by this sentence, feeling irresistibly drawn to it. Now, experiencing it firsthand, I feel like there might be some truth to it. At least, at this moment, I am dizzy and completely infatuated with this kiss. Although Dominic Hartnell did nothing but passionately kiss my lips, my body had just gone through a passionate encounter, so I couldn't help but feel a bit aroused. In the midst of this chaotic and intoxicating feeling, my hands began to explore Dominic Hartnell's body, becoming increasingly daring and venturing into more intimate areas, until finally reaching the forbidden zone. The sudden heat on my hand, coupled with Dominic Hartnell's sensual moan, snapped me back to my senses. My muddled mind regained some clarity. I quickly withdrew my hand, tilting my head to avoid Dominic Hartnell's lingering and scorching kiss. "Alright, alright, we can't kiss anymore. Let's... go to sleep, I'm so tired." I awkwardly pulled the blanket over myself, closed my eyes, and made sure not to get too close to Dominic Hartnell. Could it be that we were both under some kind of spell tonight? Dominic Hartnell was acting strange, and I was completely out of control, almost crossing the line. I didn't dare to ask Dominic Hartnell about anything, it was best to just do one thing now: close my eyes and sleep. "Sleep well, my wife." In the darkness, Dominic Hartnell planted another kiss on my lips.Then I felt as if he got out of bed. After a while, my feeling was confirmed because I heard the sound of water in the room. I opened my eyes and noticed that the bathroom light was on. Sigh... I patted my slightly flushed cheeks and closed my eyes again. Later, I don't know how, but after a while, I slowly fell asleep. The next day, I woke up much later than usual, and I had no idea when Dominic Hartnell had gotten up, I didn't feel anything. After getting ready, I went to the study first, but there was no one there, so I turned around and went downstairs. Just as I entered the living room, I saw Dominic Hartnell standing by the door, wearing slippers. I looked at him with some surprise and asked, "Did you just come back from outside? Did you go out early in the morning?" "Well, I took my mom and Chen's mom to the airport." "What? Mom already left? Why didn't you call me?" I was even more surprised. She just said yesterday that she wanted to go out and relax, and now she's gone. Isn't that too rushed? Dominic Hartnell changed into slippers and walked over to me, placing his hand on my lower back. "I wanted you to sleep a little longer. You were tired yesterday, and I only found out this morning, so I didn't call you." When he said that "you were tired yesterday," I suddenly remembered last night's activities and felt a bit embarrassed. Hmph, the culprit is surprisingly calm, not even blushing or panting. I didn't want to keep thinking about those romantic scenes, so I quickly changed the subject to divert my attention. "Did you arrange for someone to protect them? Where are they flying to for their first stop?" "Switzerland. Calvin Merchant is taking the next flight there." Calvin Merchant is reliable, so I can rest assured if he's going with them. I followed Dominic Hartnell as he supported me and went to the dining hall for breakfast. After finishing breakfast and resting in the living room, my mom called. I thought she was going to ask when I would come back, but I didn't expect her to say that she wanted to come over and take care of me. She said that I have a big belly now and she thinks it's tiring and unsafe for me to be running around. Since she's retired and has nothing to do, taking care of me would be perfect. As for my dad, she'll let him stay at home and oversee the house renovation.I don't know why my mom suddenly came up with this idea, but after she finished speaking, I instinctively rejected it. I didn't think it was necessary to go through all this trouble. With Dominic Hartnell here, hired help at home, and doctors at the hospital, I didn't require her assistance. It would only add to her exhaustion. After finally retiring, I sincerely hope my parents can relish a leisurely and carefree life. However, I am unsure about what caused my mom's sudden change in behavior. She even expressed anger towards me during our phone conversation.
