Chapter 524
Indeed, this woman was very pretty with a nice figure, and she was wearing a very sexy dress, which
would make every man excited, and even Tom was no exception.
For the past two days, Tom had received many "invitations" like this.
He was quite helpless. No wonder many men would make mistakes once they were rich. That was
because successful men were faced with too many temptations. It was too difficult for them to control
themselves.
For a moment, even Tom was stirred.
Seeing that Tom did not speak, the woman thought that he had agreed. A pleasant smile appeared on
her face and she raised her leg to walk into the room.
In fact, over the past two days, the women in her circle had been competing to be the first one to win
Tom's heart. Many good-looking socialites had failed, which made Tom seem even more precious.
If she could have a wonderful night with him, she would definitely be respected and admired by those
women.
She would be the one who profited from sleeping with such a man of status as Tom.
Unfortunately, she had underestimated Tom. Just as she thought Tom took the bait and was about to
walk in, Tom said, "I'm sorry, the shower in my room is broken too. I think you should go find someone
else."
The woman was not embarrassed at all. She reached out her hand and put it on Tom's shoulder. Her
hand slid along Tom's collar and finally to his chest. Her eyes were filled with meaningful affections.
Even a eunuch would be stirred.
But Tom wasn't. Of course, he was a man, but he was surrounded by too many beautiful women. And
this woman was no match for Amelia in terms of being sexy.
In other words, thanks to Amelia, Tom was strong-willed enough to reject any woman. So how could he
fall for such a woman?
He said directly, "I'm not interested in a one-night stand. Please leave."
The woman was a little anxious. She said quickly, "Mr. Howard, don't worry. I won't make you do
anything for me! I won't tell anyone. I just admire you and want to have an unforgettable night with
you!"
If she had said these to another man, he would have been unable to control himself, but Tom was
different. His will was so strong that ordinary people could not imagine.
He shook his head and said, "I'm married. Please leave."
After saying that, he closed the door, and there was no emotion in his heart.
The woman clenched her teeth, looking irritated and upset, but there was nothing she could do. If she
hadn't known how powerful the person in the Innate Realm was, she would have thought that Tom was
impotent.
After Tom closed the door, he shook his head helplessly and smiled. He was not stirred at all. He
turned on his phone and the wallpaper was a photo of him and Phoebe.
He called Phoebe and talked for more than an hour until he was sleepy and hung up.
He was happy with his life now. He had Phoebe, a beautiful, considerate, and meek wife, and a
thoughtful confidant like Amelia. He was also a master of the Innate Realm. What else could he ask
for?
Two days passed quickly. On the third day, the cruise ship returned to the port. Tom said goodbye to
the Fosters and Marlin and returned to Dragon Bay. He couldn't wait to see Phoebe now.
When he went back, he found Phoebe watering the flowers in the garden. The sun shone on her face,
making her look especially beautiful. His heart melted when he saw this.
Tom gave a meaningful look at the bodyguards in the distance, signaling them to leave. He quietly
came up behind Phoebe, covered her eyes, and deliberately said in a deeper voice to scare her.
"Guess who I am?"
Phoebe was indeed frightened. She let out a low cry and her body tensed up, but then she realized it,
smiled happily, and said, "A bad guy!"
"Wrong guess. I'll give you another chance." Tom still said in a deeper voice.
"Hooligan."
"Wrong again!"
"Idiot."
"Wrong, wrong, wrong. I'll give you one last chance."
"A pig... Don't tickle me. It's itchy...
In the end, Tom was a little angry that he tickled Phoebe, causing her to tremble. She couldn't stand
still and fell into Tom's arms. Her breathing began to quicken.
"Hmm? Phoebe, why are you so pale? Didn't you sleep well last night?" Tom lowered his head and saw
Phoebe's pale face. He immediately frowned and began to take Phoebe's pulse. He found that
Phoebe's pulse was a little faster and that she was a little weak.
"Why is your pulse a little faster? You look quite weak." Content from NôvelDr(a)ma.Org.
Phoebe looked a little panicked. She quickly stood up, shook her head, and said, "No, I'm fine. I don't
have any discomfort."
Tom was still frowning and said, "Don't force yourself. Look at your face. It's so pale. Have you been
too busy with work recently without good rest?"
There was a hint of reproach in Tom's tone.
He had told Phoebe many times not to work too hard and to pay attention to her health. SK Lighting
was just a small company. If she ruined her health for it, she would lose more than she gained.
When Phoebe heard Tom scolding her, she looked a little flustered and said quickly, "No, I just missed
you so much last night that I didn't sleep soundly."
Tom's heart softened when he saw Phoebe's nervous look. He held Phoebe's hand and said in a much
gentler tone, "You don't have to be afraid. I wasn't blaming you but was worried about you. You're a
young madam now. Your husband has lots of money. You don't have to work so hard, okay? Your
health is the most important. Besides, we haven't had a child yet."
Surprisingly, when Phoebe heard Tom's words, she got excited. Her eyes suddenly turned red and she
lowered her head. This startled Tom and he quickly asked, "Phoebe, what happened?"
Phoebe realized that she had lost her composure and shook her head, "No, nothing."
Tom said softly, "Phoebe, you don't want a child?"
A child would complete a marriage. At least that was what Tom thought. He always wanted to have a
child with Phoebe.
Phoebe clenched her teeth. Her eyes showed more mixed feelings, as she muttered, "child, child..."
Of course, she wanted to have a child. Unfortunately, God had cruelly deprived her of this right.
