“I just suddenly wanted to kiss you, so I did. If you find it unpleasant, then I won’t do it again in the future,” she said.
His eyes were filled with deep affection. “I really like it.”
He liked her initiative and her honesty.
She blinked and breathed a sigh of relief. “Also, tonight I don’t want to sleep in the guest room. I want to share a room with you.”
They were already husband and wife anyway, so it shouldn’t be a problem to sleep in the same room at night.
She didn’t want to resist the feelings she had for Chandler in her heart.
Although it wasn’t clear whether it was love or not, she enjoyed being close to him, holding him, and kissing him.
Chandler hesitated when he heard this, his face showing a hesitant expression.
“What’s wrong? Can’t I share a room with you?” Tina asked.
“It’s not that you can’t share a room with me, it’s just…” he hesitated.
“Just what?” she widened her eyes, waiting for him to continue.
He was afraid that his symptoms would suddenly flare up. These past few days, the cursed pain would intermittently occur, and he wasn’t sure when it would happen.
If his pain suddenly flares up when he’s with her, can he really restrain his impulse toward her?
After all, when pain strikes, the reason is fragile.
And she, she is the one he desires the most, the one who drives him crazy!
“Even though we are already married, you haven’t fallen in love with me yet. If we share a room, I’m afraid I’ll act on impulse and end up hurting you!” Chandler said.
Tina pondered for a moment, “So, if I fall in love with you, then we can sleep in the same room?”
Her words caught him off guard.
“Hmm?” She still had her eyes wide open, waiting for his answer.
“Yes.” He replied softly.
If she truly fell in love with him, he wouldn’t suppress or overcome his impulse towards her anymore.
She could have whatever she wanted!
Tina shrugged, “Alright then, I’ll sleep in the guest room!”
But when night came, Tina couldn’t fall asleep no matter what.
She got up and put on a coat, walking out of the room.
The Hunter family was a completely new and unfamiliar environment to her, yet she didn’t feel it was that unfamiliar.
Maybe it was because she had been here before, even though she didn’t have that memory, her body might still remember.
In the depths of her mind, there seemed to be an inexplicable calling, urging her on.
Tina unconsciously walked to the door of a room.
This room’s door was different from the others.
That intangible urging in her heart seemed to have become even more apparent!
Tina hesitated and pushed the door open.
In her sight was a portrait and a table.
The table was adorned with various offerings.
The portrait depicted a beautiful woman, but her gaze carried a trace of resentment.
Who was this woman?
In an instant, Tina’s heart rate suddenly accelerated. She felt as if a memory was appearing in her mind, but it was just a blank.
It was as if there was something important that she should remember!
But she couldn’t remember it now!
Just then, there was suddenly a commotion outside.
Tina was startled and instinctively hid under the table, her body covered by the tablecloth.
But as soon as she hid, she realized why she was hiding. Even if she wasn’t hiding, it wouldn’t matter. If someone saw her, she could simply say that she had entered the wrong room or something like that!
However, someone had already entered, and the door of the room was pushed open at this moment, and someone walked in.
At this moment, it would be awkward to crawl out.
So Tina could only continue to crouch under the table, hoping that the person who came in would leave quickly.
“Don’t you want that Stephenson girl to give birth to your child as soon as possible?” the voice of an old man suddenly resounded in the room.
Tina was taken aback. This voice was the voice of old Mr. Hunter.
So the person being asked by old Mr. Hunter at this moment would be…
Just as Tina was thinking this, the familiar voice had already spoken.
“When to have a child should be Tina’s decision, not mine.”
“What if she never wants to have another one?”
“Then we won’t have one.”
“You—” Old Mr. Hunter glared at Chandler with anger, “Why are you so disappointing!”
But at this moment, Tina’s state of mind was completely different from old Mr. Hunter’s.
She felt a hint of sweetness.
He was indeed as he promised, not pressuring her.
But the next sentence from old Mr. Hunter made her suddenly freeze.
“Don’t forget, what was your purpose for getting close to Tina in the first place? After all these years by her side, are you planning to give up?” the old Mr. Hunter said angrily.
Tina was taken aback, purpose?
Was Chandler accompanying her for a reason?
“I haven’t forgotten,” Chandler said, and the pain in his body reminded him of that purpose.
“Since you haven’t forgotten, then you should make Tina give birth to the child as soon as possible.
Don’t forget, only the umbilical cord blood of the child she and you have can save your life. The umbilical cord blood of the first child is already gone, you can only have another one!” the old Mr.
Hunter said.
Tina was completely stunned, she never expected to hear such words.
A child? Umbilical cord blood? Life-saving?
What is going on?
“If you don’t force her…”
“Grandfather, I will make Tina fall in love with me,” Chandler interrupted the old Mr. Hunter. He knew that if he didn’t make a stand now, his grandfather would inevitably hurt Tina, so he had to promise first.
“Are you sure she will fall in love with you? She has lost her memories, even if you want her to fall in love with you, how much time will it take?” the old Mr. Hunter worriedly said.
After all, time was what his grandson couldn’t afford the most right now.
This kind of pain only intensified year after year.
Did his grandson have to continue to stay by Tina’s side for another ten years or more, just so that Tina could fall in love with him again?
“It won’t take too long,” Chandler said, “She already has feelings for me, I guarantee that after a while, she will fall in love with me.”
The old Mr. Hunter sighed, “I hope what you said is true. Don’t forget, you are the only bloodline of the
Hunter family! I don’t want my bloodline to end with you.”
The old Mr. Hunter said, glancing at the portrait of the woman hanging on the wall. Who could have imagined that the Hunter family would be plagued by such a curse for thousands of years?
Even with all the wealth and power, they were ultimately trapped in it.
“I understand,” Chandler said softly.
The old Mr. Hunter looked at his grandson’s appearance and knew that saying more would be useless.
“Alright, I couldn’t sleep and pulled you out to chat. Now you should go back and rest,” the old Mr.
Hunter said.
“I want to stay here a little longer,” Chandler said.
Hearing this, the old Mr. Hunter patted his grandson’s shoulder, “It’s fine for you to stay here for a while, think carefully about whether it’s worth it to do all this. Don’t make yourself miserable.”
Chandler lowered his gaze, he was doing all this because he loved Tina.
He didn’t want to force her to do anything.
If Tina didn’t willingly want to have their child, then he would rather do as Tina wished and not have a second child!
Even if it meant that his life might not last much longer!
He never thought he would love someone like this before.
But now that he did, he realized what a profound feeling it was!
For that person, he could sacrifice anything. As long as that person was safe and happy, it was worth more than anything else!
