Chapter 74 Trust Him
Freya lost her grip on the pencil in her hand and drew a few strokes on the paper. Annoyed, she picked up the eraser. Why did she always get distracted?
At this moment, there was movement in the direction of the door. Freya's heart skipped a beat. Then she saw the door open, and a familiar figure stepped in. It was Austin.
Austin saw Freya holding the drawing board on the sofa next to the crystal floor lamp in the hall, without noticing Daniel sleeping curled up beside her. Austin frowned and asked softly, "Daniel is asleep?"
Freya glanced down at Daniel her side. "He's right beside me!"
Austin walked over to the sofa and saw Daniel nuzzling up against Freya, asleep.
"Did he take a bath?"
"Not yet! He's waiting for you to come home." Freya responded and immediately added, "Don't bathe him tonight. I'll just give him a sponge bath. Take him into the room."
Austin scooped Daniel up in his arms and headed for his bedroom. Freya fetched a basin of warm water from the bathroom, then crouched down beside Austin, and undid Daniel's sweaty clothes, revealing his chubby belly.
Freya soaked a towel in the water, wrung it out, and sponged Daniel's body. Austin looked down at Daniel's sleeping face, and then his eyes strayed into Freya's white shirt and spotted her exposed chest.
Freya was sponging Daniel's upper body carefully. When she looked up, she found that Austin's eyes were fixed on her chest.
Freya hurriedly covered her chest with her hands and warned in a low voice, "Don't look at me."
Austin smiled evilly, "I can't help it. I've got a very good view."
Freya was going to wash Daniel's feet. She had no choice but to crouch and drop the palm of her hand from her chest even though his eyes still fell on her.
Anyway, he could do nothing to her but watch.
After sponging Daniel, Freya dressed him in soft pajamas and put him on the small bed. Freya was already sweating.
After that, Austin said to her, "Come out with me. I have something to say."
Freya followed Austin out to the sofa, and he fastened his gaze on her face and said, "My parents and sister are back home today."
Freya's pupils dilated a little with wariness and tension as if she was facing an arch enemy.
Austin squinted his eyes and said soothingly in a deep voice, "Don't worry. My parents and sister are easygoing. They never thought of taking Daniel away from you. They're here just to visit Daniel as his grandparents. That's all."
"Really?" Freya didn't believe Austin.
Austin frowned tightly.
Was she so distrustful of him?
"I assure you," Austin said firmly.
Freya blinked as if she was thinking about whether to believe him or not.
Austin immediately leaned over, and Freya took a step back in fright, then backed away against the sofa, and slumped down on it.
But at this moment, Austin's tall figure leaned over, and he had his arms propped up on either side of the sofa where she was sitting so that she couldn't move.
"What... are you going to do? I'm warning you, do not mess around." Freya covered her chest with her hands, with a resentful look on her face.
"Is it that difficult for you to trust me? Am I not doing a good-enough job?" Austin asked with a cold face. Even if he spoiled her, she must be obedient. Otherwise, he didn't mind showing his true color.
Freya's breathing became a little ragged. What was wrong with him?
"Alright, I trust you. But what if you lie to me?" Freya stared up at Austin with limpid eyes.
"I'll never lie to you," Austin said firmly and loudly.
Freya frowned, but seeing that Austin didn't intend to get up, she nudged him. "Get up since you've finished speaking."
Austin's face went cold as he dropped his arms and walked toward his bedroom.
Freya entered the room with the drawing board, thinking that she couldn't let what happened last night happen again and must get away from him.
However, Freya didn't sleep soundly tonight. She couldn't stop thinking about Jessica stealing her design draft. She got mad and must reason with Jessica when she got a chance.
The following morning.
Freya got up early in the morning and saw Austin push open the door. He was shirtless, only wearing a pair of gray pants, revealing his sexy, solid, and taut body.
Freya's heart skipped a beat, and she hurriedly turned her face away.
"Please don't be naked at home, okay?" Freya complained.
Austin poured himself a glass of water and turned around to face her. "Don't you think I look good like this? Or are you too shy to look at me?"
"It's not a matter of you looking good or not, but it will have an adverse effect on Daniel," said Freya with a frown.
"I think Daniel doesn't have a problem with it. Tell me, are you happy with my body?" Austin got a mischievous look on his dazzlingly gorgeous face.
"Not really," Freya lied through her teeth and hated it when he was narcissistic.
"Which part do you find imperfect?" There was an evil look on Austin's face.
Austin's body was perfectly built. Freya stared at him and could not spot any flaw, so she simply do not answer.
At this moment, Daniel yawned and came out of his room. "Daddy, Mommy, good morning!"
"Did you sleep well, Daniel?"
"Mommy, I had a dream last night where you two got married and I was spreading rose petals ahead of you!" Daniel said joyfully.
Freya was embarrassed when Daniel said out loud the dream he had.
"If your mommy and I ever get married, I'll make sure you spread rose petals ahead of us." Austin sipped water elegantly with a dazzling smile. C0ntent © 2024 (N/ô)velDrama.Org.
"Really? Mommy, when are you going to marry Daddy?" Daniel believed Austin's promise. The dream last night must have been so wonderful that he couldn't wait to be the pageboy.
"Would you like to have breakfast at home or at school?" Freya deliberately did not answer Daniel.
Daniel immediately replied in a sweet voice, "Mommy, I won't bother you. I'll eat at school!"
The school offered a hearty breakfast, and Daniel liked it very much.
Freya saw that Austin was already fully dressed and said to him, "Austin, wash Daniel's face and brush his teeth. I'm going back to my room to change my pajamas."
Freya got changed and came out to see Austin and Freya waiting for her on the sofa. Freya was dressed in a white shirt and a gray hip skirt that lent her the air of a competent office lady.
Austin got a bunch of young female employees in the company, and they were usually dressed the same way. But now, his eyes lit up when he saw Freya.
Freya was very different from other women, pure and seductive.
