Tina lowered her head, lost in thought.
For Tina, the closest level of intimacy between her and Chandler was sleeping in the same bed together.
Of course, this sleeping was just simply holding each other while sleeping.
Even before she was 7 years old, Chandler used to often hold her and nap together. As she grew older,
Chandler slept with her less and less, and the last time they slept together was apparently 3 years ago.
As for other forms of intimacy, like hugging and holding hands, those were common.
But kissing…it was only on the cheek.
Thinking about it, even though she and Chandler were engaged and only one step away from getting married, she had never had any intimate behavior with him like a typical couple would.
So how intimate could she be with Chandler?
Kissing like a normal couple? Physical intimacy? Even making love?
Whatever step she was willing to take, she would understand whether or not she truly loved him.
“What’s wrong? You’ve been staring at me.” Chandler’s voice suddenly sounded, bringing Tina back from her thoughts.
Tina smiled awkwardly, realizing that she was currently eating with Chandler in a restaurant.
“I was just thinking about how handsome my fiancé is,” she flattered.
Chandler raised his eyebrows, “What else do you need me to do?”
“…” She gave him a speechless expression, “I really mean it from the bottom of my heart! I’m not just saying nice things to ask for your help!”
“Is that so?” He smiled faintly, every time she asked for his help, she would speak sweetly.
“Yes.” She said, and then seemed to think of something, “By the way, can I stay overnight at your place tonight?”
“Why do you suddenly want to stay overnight at my place?” Chandler asked back.
Although Tina occasionally stayed overnight at his place, it was usually when the Stephenson family was not at home, or when she dragged him to accompany her to concerts or events that ended too late, so they would stay at his place.
And today, obviously none of these situations existed.
“It’s just…there’s a game tonight for my favorite team, and I want to watch it with you, so I thought I could stay overnight at your place. You wouldn’t refuse your lovely fiancée, would you?” She even blinked her eyes deliberately and put on a pitiful look.
“Have you talked to your parents about it?” Chandler asked again.
“If you agree, I’ll tell them right now!” She said quickly.
He sighed, “When have I ever refused your requests?”
He could be said to be very indulgent towards her, so much so that even those who knew him well found it strange.
Some people even asked him privately, why he was so devoted to
Tina?
After all, although she was not bad-looking, she could not be considered a beauty.
Although she had the background of the Stephenson family, her unconventional personality also made many elders of wealthy families shake their heads.
He himself found it strange.
If it was fate that made him choose her, who had just been born, and engage with her, then his feelings for her slowly accumulated over the years.
Perhaps it was when she was still a baby, holding his finger and smiling at him, or maybe it was when she was learning to speak and calling out to him, “Chandler… Chandler…”
Or maybe it was when she slept in his arms, full of trust…
Even he couldn’t explain when his feelings for her started to grow, or even change.
But for him, it was a good thing.
The person he fell in love with was the one he was destined to be with!
Tina called the Stephenson family to let them know she would be staying overnight at Chandler’s place.
Lina agreed, reminding her daughter not to make a mess or cause trouble for Chandler.
Tina promised, not mentioning her true intentions for staying the night.
After all, if her parents found out, they would drag her back home by the ear.
Ending the call, Tina smiled at Chandler, “Now you can stay over there tonight.”
On the other end, Lina told her husband, “Tina is staying overnight at Chandler’s place tonight.”
“Staying overnight? Why?” Hadwin frowned.
“She said that her favorite team is playing tonight and she wants to watch the game with Chandler,”
Lina said.
“Can’t she watch the game at home? Why does she have to go to someone else’s house?” Hadwin said.
“What do you mean someone else’s house? Is Chandler a stranger?” Lina said.
“I’m just worried about them being alone in a room together. What if something happens?”
“You still don’t trust Chandler?” Lina laughed. “I know you’re worried as a father, but I’ve known
Chandler for years and I trust his character. He won’t do anything to Tina.”
Hadwin grumbled, “I’m not worried about him doing something to Tina, I’m worried about Tina doing something to him.”
As her father, Hadwin knew his daughter well. And with Chandler’s stunning looks, he was afraid that his daughter might be swayed by his beauty and do something foolish.
In a father’s eyes, even if his daughter was the one who initiated it, she would still be the one at a disadvantage.
Lina rested her chin on her hand and thought about what her husband had said. Then she suddenly said, “If that’s the case, then our daughter is lucky. They will be together sooner or later, and it doesn’t make much difference.”
After all, their daughter was already an adult, 20 years old.
Lina wasn’t a conservative person and didn’t think her daughter would be at a disadvantage.
As long as they took the necessary precautions, everything would be fine.
Besides, if something did happen between them, they wouldn’t need her to remind them to take precautions. Chandler would take the initiative to do so.
“How can you say it doesn’t make a difference? Tina is only 20 years old. If something really happens between them…”
“When we had sex back then, I wasn’t much older than Tina,” Lina said. “And I was the one who initiated it. Do you think I was at a disadvantage?”
As soon as these words were spoken, Hadwin’s face immediately became embarrassed.
Well, back then, he felt like he had been taken advantage of. After all, Lina had taken everything from him and left, causing him to look for her for several years.
“So, our daughter is like me, she won’t be taken advantage of.”
Lina said with a smile.
“Yes, Tina is like you.” Hadwin looked at his wife and remembered their first night together abroad, his eyes filled with desire. “Lina, since Tina won’t be coming back tonight, let’s have a good night together…”
“Okay.” Lina enthusiastically kissed her husband on the cheek.
After so many years of marriage, her husband still loved her so much. This was the greatest happiness for her.
At night, facing the “beauty” of Tina, her father did not cooperate like her mother did. On the contrary, her “beauty” was simply uncooperative to the extreme.
As she watched the game and teased him with her paws, he pressed her paws down after just a few touches.
“Don’t move your hands around, I’m still a man after all.” Chandler said.
“…” It was precisely because he was a man that her hands moved around!
Originally, she wanted to take the initiative to “tease” him and see what kind of reaction he would have.
This way, when they were “intimate”, she would know what she could accept and whether she really loved him or not.
But she didn’t expect to be stopped as soon as she started!
“Don’t you like it when I touch you?” Tina asked.
After a moment of contemplation, he asked back, “Do you want to touch me?”
“Didn’t I used to touch you a lot when we were kids, especially when we were drawing?” She remembered how she used to touch him a lot when she was drawing, and her hands had been all over him.
There was a time when she was interested in drawing, especially the human body.
And she only drew handsome men and beautiful women.
So he naturally became her model, and her hands were all over him.
But he never said anything back then!
“When you were drawing, you were only 10 years old, how is that the same as now?” Chandler said.
He was already 18 years old back then, not a pervert who would react to a 10-year-old girl’s touch.
Moreover, at that time, his feelings towards Tina were more like she was his possession, someone he had to be tied to for the rest of his life.
There wasn’t much romantic love involved.
He just thought she was cute, and this love accumulated slowly as she grew older.
“So you don’t see me as a child anymore?” Tina grumbled.
“I know better than anyone that you’re 20 years old,” Chandler said.
In two years, when she graduates from college, it will be the time for her to fulfill their engagement.
Then… she will truly be his!
