Chapter 142: Falling into the Water Again
Chapter 142: Falling into the Water Again
"Young Master, don't worry. I have it all recorded. Look." Kayden presses the play button, and they can see inside, a girl with bangs screaming "I love you!" loudly. Then, the girl puckers up and kisses a gorgeous man...
Well... This... What's happening?
Trembling, Elaine takes her hand out of the blanket and points at the tablet with her eyes widened. "Emmett! What's that..."
"Somebody confesses her passion to me this day. It's very precious, I must keep it as a memory. How do you think? Isn't it beautiful? It will have been even better if the woman in the film is prettier, right? Hehehe..."
Elaine has gone ballistic and howls, "Emmett! Could you be any nastier? I'm on the outs with you! I'm going to kill you!!!"
Elaine lunges at him...
Splash! Once again, Elaine ends up in the water miserably.
Emmett leans against the boat, feeling not anxious at all. He throws a lifebuoy at Elaine while pulling the other end of the connecting line.
He snickers, "Oh Elaine, I didn't expect you to like the river so much! Swimming is actually good for growing taller. Geez, you should really do more exercise for that height."
"Ahhh! Emmett! I hate you! I hate you!" Elaine wears the lifebuoy while patting the water and shouting.
It's actually quite good in the water. The temperature is just right, cool and refreshing.
She is being dragged by Emmett like this with her whole body floating in the water. It's quite fun.
When they reach the shore, Emmett thinks that Elaine has calmed down after playing so long in the water. He stands on the shore and stretches out his arm over to Elaine, who is still in the water.
"Come on, my dear. It's time to go back and take a hot bath. Otherwise, you'll catch a cold easily."
Elaine is about to reach out to Emmett, but she suddenly hesitates.
Emmett is puzzled as he bends down, trying to guess what is bearing inside her mind. He whispers to her, "What's wrong?"
Elaine feels sorrow as well as a bit of awkwardness. She darts a glance at Kayden, who is a few meters away from them, and beckons Emmett over.
Emmett bends over again and pricks up his ears.
Elaine then says embarrassingly, "Erm... Just now, when soaking in the water... My panties had fallen in the river..."
"Huh? What?" Emmett wants to laugh incredulously, with his eyes widened.
"Keep your voice down! How dare you say that! It's all your fault! Just now, you pulled it down... Then it slipped into the water easily..."
Emmett is trying his best not to laugh out. This little girl is really funny.
"Kayden, bring me another dry blanket."
"Okay, here you go." Kayden finds another dry blanket from the ship and hands it to Emmett.
Elaine is stunned, looking at the blanket, and says in exasperation, "Isn't there still a blanket? Then why must you have to share a blanket with me just now, saying that there was only one..."
In the meantime, Emmett pretends thinking for a moment, "Oh, you mean the blanket? Yeah, there's a lot of them, but so what? I just want there to be only one blanket on the boat so we can wrap one together. Hehehe."
Elaine really wants to ruin Emmett's handsome face as he grins.
Bad guy! A total badass! A scumbag!
No matter how angry and outrageous she is, she can only be obsequious to him at the moment.
She's out of choice, for her still being in the water right now. If she comes up just like this with her clothes all wet and clinging to her body, it will be apparent that she's not wearing any panties.
Ahhhhh... It's all her fault for being too playful, trying to be a scuba diver, and splashing water just now.
It’s so pathetic.
In the end, Emmett wraps her in a blanket and holds her up in his arms, only exposing her little head. Elaine feels uncomfortable and wants to pull the blanket off, exposing her shoulders.
But instead, Emmett halts her, "Don't move. You'll really catch a cold. When we get to the villa, I'll let you have a hot bath straight away."
Elaine twitches her lips.
President Smith, you're such an evil-hearted guy. Please stop pretending to be good. Would you really care about me?
Although his words seemed like he does care about her. But... She won't forget the way he teased her under the blanket just now.
Emmett has everyone cleared off as he holds Elaine back to the villa by himself.
He kicks open the door and put her into a bathtub of warm water. He helps Elaine to undress in the water, but she refuses, "Hey, hey. I can do it by myself. Don't..."
Emmett doesn't say anything as well as not giving her a chance to interrupt him.
He has torn off her wet clothes before she even knows it. Then he turns on the shower with hot water splashing on her body.
"Hey, can you get out? Who wants to take a shower with someone watching beside them?" Elaine blushes.
Although the two of them have had some rumpy-pumpy, he still couldn't just watch her bathing like this, isn't it? So shameful...
Emmett nods and just walks out, being so obedient surprisingly.
Elaine feels very comfortable soaking in the warm water.
But just in a while, Emmett comes back again, scaring her until she screams.
"Why did you come in again?" Her little hands immediately cover her breasts, but thinking that the water is so clear, her bottom should be covered too... She realizes that having only two arms is still not enough...
Emmett glances at Elaine's body and hands over a bowl of ginger soup to her.
"Drink this ginger soup."
"Huh? Ginger soup? I don't want to drink it. It's too spicy."
In the meantime, Emmett urges her, "I'll count to three. If you don't drink it, then I'll pinch your nose, forcing you to drink it down. One, two..."
Elaine is frightened by Emmett's overbearing actions. She drinks it in one gulp right away, just before he counts to two.
She begins to sweat after drinking the bowl of hot ginger soup.
Emmett faintly smiles as he touches Elaine's wet forehead.
Elaine senses his care and concern from his smile.
Does he... really care about her? Elaine's heart couldn't help but tremble.
Emmett takes care of Elaine treating her like a child. He wraps her up in a large towel and carries her to the bed. Emmett holds her down, not letting her move while blow-drying her hair. After drying her hair, he helps her to put on her pyjamas and shoves a hot water bag into her arms.
Emmett's actions are confusing Elaine. She is holding the hot water bag and her two big eyes widened, feeling a bit daze. Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.
"Why do I have to hold this thing?" As she's not on her period again...
Emmett says, "It was your first time yesterday. You might be feeling a bit uncomfortable. This lets you warm your womb."
Uterus? Her sweat is dripping down!
Emmett is indeed cheeky, talking about her body without any sense of shame.
When she comes to think of it, her body is indeed a bit excruciating. It's all this bastard's fault!
Emmett serves Elaine very well. Her pink blush face and shaggy hair after a shower are adorable and charming. She widens her eyes and asks, "Hey, why are you being so nice to me all of a sudden?"
Emmett is startled for a moment, and he looks askance at her. The situation turns into an awkward silence all of a sudden.
"I had told you. I like you." After saying that, he turns around and walks out.
I like you... I like you... I like you...
Elaine nestles into her soft silk blanket while hugging the warm hot water bag. She is watching the TV but couldn't help asking herself, "Does he really like me? Really? Why does he like me but still being intimate with other women? Then, his liking is way so cheap! Or... He likes me the way I like my neighbor’s pet dog? The liking that anyone can have? I don't understand. I can't understand him. Why do I feel so weird in my heart when he says he likes me…"
Elaine pouts and no longer thinking about those questions that she can't understand.
She picks up the remote control, changing the TV channel. After changing the TV channel a few times, she throws the remote away in a frenzy. All of the programs are in foreign languages. She couldn't understand anything with her English proficiency level...
Knock, knock... Someone knocks on the door.
"Who is it?" Elaine asks as she tidies up her hair.
"It's me, Kayden."
"Oh, then please come in."
Why does Kayden come to her room?
