Chapter 1222
Adam reached out and picked up the phone.
While he was answering the phone, the other hand of him was on her arm outside the quilt. He simply did not want to miss any chance to caress her.
Her skin was as delicate as snow-white satin, and Adam also had noticed some little stains on her arm... sweat stains, or something else. This was truly exciting for him.
As his horny fingers caressed her arm tenderly, Anthea trembled slightly, as if she was a falling leaf.
The call was from Bellamy Chin, Adam's father. The two of them had a short conversation, which ended in about two minutes.
Adam folded his palm slightly and saw with satisfaction that her breathing was disordered out of excitement. He then asked with a smile," Honey, why don't you get up now?"
"No!" Anthea shook her head like a rattle drum.
"You little lazy cat..." Adam laughed at her.
Anthea almost glared at him with resentment. "Who is to be blamed for this?"
The curve of corners of Adam's lips deepened.
He was so close to his sweetheart now...He stood with his back to the window, and his whole body was basked in the sunshine. There was even a drop of water that hadn't evaporated on his body. It slid down slowly over his bronze skin, and then disappeared under the bath towel on his waist, which was sexy and strong.
Anthea couldn't help but think about something lecherous again. The scenes that he was holding her under his strong body last night popped up in her mind...
She felt thirsty and hurriedly tried to divert her attention. "Adam, who called you just now? What's up?"
Adam replied, "My dad asked me to go home this afternoon to have dinner together with them."
"Humn!" Anthea nodded.
Now it was still the Spring Festival period. Except for the New Year's Eve, when he went back to have a reunion dinner with his family members, Adam had spent all his time with her during this period. Though they had a lot of fun together, Anthea thought that it would be reasonable for Adam to go back home occasionally; otherwise his father would certainly think that Adam had been enticed by a beautiful but evil woman these days.
Even though this was virtually the truth...
Anthea, the "beautiful but evil woman", was not worried about her being at home alone at all.
Even if Adam was going to leave here, he would prepare the meal for her in advance before leaving. The only thing she had to do was to sit there and wait for the meal prepared by her lover.
Adam paused and added, "Amelie will also be there."
Hearing this, Anthea raised her head suddenly.
"Amelie Celestin again?"
Anthea pursed her lovely lips and said in a low voice, "Oh..."
Her eyelashes were long and thick. They hung down slightly like two small feathered fans. At this time, two little shadows silently appeared under her eyelids, but maybe she was unaware of them. Her cheeks were slightly bulging as a result of anxiety.
Adam smiled comfortingly. He rubbed her head and said, "I'll bring you back home with me."
Hearing this, Anthea was stunned for a moment, and then she, who had originally planned to lie on the bed lazily for a long, long time, suddenly got up from the bed, as if she was fearing that he would go back on his words.
Chin's Mansion.
The three-story villa was magnificent and gorgeous, but did not appear to be vulgar at all.
The servants were cleaning up the residual snow in the courtyard. The kitchen was in the south side of the villa. It was very spacious and well-illuminated. At this time, the afternoon sunshine shed in freely through the window, and the heater in the room was working. It gave people the impression that they were still in the middle of spring.
Now, it was not anyone of the servants of the Chin Family standing in front of the stove, but Amelie Celestin, who was wearing a military uniform.
Amelie had taken off her jacket. Now she was wearing a military green shirt and a pair of military pants. She was tall and had a valiant temperament, but as she was now wearing an apron with floral patterns, she looked lovelier and tenderer than usual.
Watching from the side, Meadow Yamada sighed silently and melancholily.
She felt apologetic more or less.
After all, it was Meadow who had made a phone call to Amelie not long ago. Through the phone call Meadow indirectly suggested that Amelie should try to become Adam's girlfriend. This was undoubtedly a good chance offered to Amelie by Adam's mother. But now the situation was different. Her son, Adam, had already had a girlfriend, and the relationship between them seemed to be very good!
In all fairness, Meadow was delighted to learn that her son had a girlfriend, but she also liked Amelie very much.
After all, Meadow had seen Amelie grow up, so that she knew the latter very well. Besides, as a clever and graceful girl, Amelie was indeed a good choice for a daughter-in-law. However, as a mother, Meadow still preferred to respect her son's own choices. For this reason, she had always regretted the act of trying to bring Adam and Amelie together, and to some extent felt that she had failed Amelie.
Meadow sighed again and stepped forward, saying gently, "Amelie, you are the guest. Don't bother about it. Just leave these things to the servants!"
"It's okay, Auntie!" Amelie shook her head with a gentle smile.
Except for literary soldiers, women were not allowed to have long hair in the army. With her hair down to her shoulders and tied up loosely, Amelie looked like a good wife and mother now. Her lips were wearing a thin layer of lipstick. At the moment, she was sipping the soup in the pot with her head down.
Meadow felt apologetic to Amelie, and as a result praised the latter without hesitation, "Amelie, you stay in the army most of the time and have to go through a lot of military training. I haven't expected you to be so good at cooking!"
Amelie tucked the hair near her ear and replied with a smile, "Two years ago, I was despatched abroad to work for a project. I lived alone at that time, and I couldn't get used to the foods provided in the cafeteria. Finally, I chose to cook my own foods. Moreover, my mum always instructed the cooks in our house to teach me cooking skills. She told me that a lady should be able to talk to guests in the living room, and cook delicious foods in the kitchen. She hopes that I'll become a good wife in the future!"
"Your mother has really taught you very well!" Meadow smiled.
Amelie replied modestly, "Auntie, my cooking skills are still not very exquisite yet. If the dinner doesn't taste good later on, please don't mind it!"
"No way!" Meadow said, "I should thank you for cooking the dinner! You're really an excellent girl. Nowadays, It's rare for girls to be good at cooking. You have worked so hard to improve yourself in your spare time! If a man marries you in the future, he'll surely be a very happy husband!"
Amelie smiled in a slightly embarrassing manner. "Auntie, you have been so kind to me!"
Meadow looked down at her watch and said, "It seems that we are going to enjoy some delicious foods today. I'm waiting for Adam to come back!"
Amelie tried to maintain a decent smile on her face.
She lowered her head and poured the ingredients into the soup pot, as as to cover up the trace of cunningness in her eyes.
When the two families had dinner together before the Spring Festival, Amelie actually left with tears in her eyes.
In front of the elders of the two families, Adam declared that he had already had a girlfriend. This was very mean to Amelie. After that, Amelie's attempt was rejected by him mercilessly. She was angry about it. However, it was Bellamy Chin who had personally invited her to have dinner at his house today.
This meant that as the head of the family, Bellamy was not satisfied with his son's current girlfriend; instead, he was more inclined towards Amelie.
Amelie felt that she had a great chance now.
She was not the kind of person who would give up easily. She would try hard and persistently in order to get what she wanted!
She covered up the pot, and her smile became deeper.
She knew how to cook indeed, but she rarely cooked. This was just a gesture, a gesture to demonstrate to others that she was a smart and diligent girl. She would do the cooking only when it was necessary, and what she wanted was to impress others with her cooking gesture.
At this time, a servant came over from the porch to report, "Madam, Young Master is back!"
