Married to a Secret Billionaire (Stella Taylor)

Chapter 65 Want More Time Alone with You

Liam's mouth twitched slightly.

Stella looked at him with concern, worried that he had once again gotten involved with some shady inmates and used some special means to force Henry to buy this house for her.

Even if he succeeded temporarily, there would be endless trouble in the future.

She really didn't want Liam to get into unnecessary trouble again.

"Are you worried about me?" Liam's gaze deepened, and he smiled gently. "Don't worry. I did everything by legitimate means. Since I promised you that I won't cause any trouble in the future, I will definitely keep my word."

"But my dad..."

"I found a lawyer." He casually said, "I met him... in the detention center before. He often provides legal assistance to prisoners, and he's a good person. He has helped me a lot since I was released." "Oh, I see." Stella finally felt relieved. "Then we should thank him properly! How about inviting him to have dinner at our place?"

"No need for now. Mr. Thompson is quite busy. Let's invite him when there's a chance."

Stella nodded and carefully put away the property deed.

Liam hugged her from behind.

He had been busy with her family matters during this period and hadn't had a chance to be intimate with her.

The moonlight was just right at this moment, and a gentle breeze blew in. The sweet fragrance on her body lightly scratched his heart like a kitten's paw.

Liam became intoxicated and rested his chin on her neck, kissing her fair neck again and again.

Just as he was about to go further, Stella lightly pulled him, turned around, and smiled at him apologetically.

"No... today is not convenient."

"What?"

"Well..." Stella blushed. "I have period pain."

Those few words were like a bucket of cold water that woke Liam up. Reluctantly, he slowly withdrew his hand, his face full of dissatisfaction.

Stella held back her laughter and hooked her arms around his neck, lightly kissing his cheek. "Is this enough compensation for you?"

"Just this?" He pretended to be serious. "It was just a light kiss, no sincerity."

"I'm afraid if I show too much sincerity, you won't be able to control yourself. And then you'll be the one who suffers, won't you?"

Liam looked up at her. Her beautiful deer-like eyes were shining mischievously, adding a hint of coquettishness to her usual gentle and quiet demeanor. She seemed like a versatile girl, always bringing him a sense of freshness that he couldn't resist.

But no matter how itchy his heart was, he could only endure.

Liam sighed deeply and lay on the bed with her in his arms, burying his face in her chest, and caressing it gently.

Stella was amused by him and her fingers gently ran through his hair as she softly told him to sleep early.

"I can't fall asleep." He said in a hoarse voice, "Why do you still have your period?"

"What's so strange about that?" Stella glanced at him. "I have it every month, and it's very punctual."

"I was so diligent last month. Shouldn't we have a baby this month?"

Stella blushed instantly, her cheeks turning red as if she had a fever.

"What are you talking about?" She turned over and had her back to him. "Having a baby is something that should happen naturally, right?"

"Yeah, you're right. Let nature take its course..."

Liam's large hand rested on her abdomen, and his serious expression made her speechless.

"Darling." She asked him softly, "Do you really want to have a baby?"

"Don't you want to?"

"Not at the moment."

Liam's eyes froze for a moment, and his eyebrows slightly furrowed, but soon the tension dissipated.

Stella pouted and murmured to herself, "It's too expensive to raise a child now. Not only do we have to give birth to and raise him, but we also have to educate him and plan for his future... I don't think I have the ability to afford it."

"And..." She turned to look at him, and a hint of shyness flashed across her eyes. "I want to spend some more time with you alone."

After saying that, she lowered her gaze and smiled sweetly, revealing her dimples.

Liam's heart seemed to have been touched by something.

In the past, he was always cautious, and his life was filled with invisible dangers. But now, with Stella, he realized that there was such beautiful sunshine in the world. She warmed his cold and damp heart, leading him into a warm season of blooming flowers.

But if he returned to Emberfall, all of this would no longer exist...

Liam smiled and held her tighter as if he was afraid that she would run away.

"Don't worry. If we have a child, I won't let you bear the burden alone." He chuckled and said in a hoarse voice, "I found a job, and I'll give you my salary card. Your burden won't be so heavy."

"What?" Stella widened her eyes, surprised and delighted. "Did you get a job? When did this happen?"

"Just a couple of days ago." Liam smiled. "I'll work as a boxing coach at a gym, and I will participate in matches from time to time. If I achieve good results in the matches, there will be generous rewards." Stella was slightly taken aback.

Being a boxing coach was a decent profession. Moreover, he enjoyed practicing with weapons and often punched sandbags on the balcony, developing strong muscles that suited him well for this line of work. However, Stella was worried. After all, this profession carried risks, and getting injured was common. She didn't want him to be so tired.

Furthermore, nowadays many women liked to learn self-defense techniques, and they liked muscular men. If...

She pursed her lips and suddenly felt jealous for no reason.

"You can go out to work." She looked at him. "But we need to establish some ground rules!"

"What?" Liam was momentarily stunned and found it amusing.

What was going on? Had the world changed? Did a man need a woman's consent to go out to work?
