A Moment in Destiny

"What's wrong? Babe? What's wrong?" He was a little nervous.

"Elijah, you're bullying me, how can you bully me? I don't want to be your wife, and I'd rather die than be your wife! You bully me!"

He looked at her helplessly, not ignoring her intelligent eyes that rolled around, wondering what bad ideas she was thinking. He lifted his eyes to look at her and raised an eyebrow, "Babe, tell me what you want to do."

Esther shook her head, forcing a few drops of tears out of her eyes.

"You don't have to give me your puppy dog eyes!" With just one sentence, he seemed to have understood her whole life.

"Elijah, don't bully me, okay?" Esther said in a weeping voice, "I'm an orphan, no one cares about, so you can't bully me, let alone molest me, you're molesting an underage child like me…"

Elijah's movements froze. "Esther, try saying that again!"

He just kissed her, and she said he was molesting her?

"You molested me!" She looked at him with red-rimmed eyes, looking so pitiful.

He really had found a doll bride. He got himself a wife, but at the same time, he also got a daughter. He looked down at her who still had teardrops on her eyelashes, and he wrapped his arms around her helplessly. "Alright, I get it, I won't molest you!"

"Really?" She didn't believe it and lifted her face to look at him.

"Really!" No way!

Elijah added in his mind.

Was intimacy between husband and wife considered obscene?

Esther rolled her pupils in his arms, then she suddenly took advantage of his inattentiveness to step on his foot violently. Her foot stepped on Elijah's shiny leather shoes, and then she quickly jumped aside, gloating and laughing. "Humph, that’s what happens if you bully me! I will take my revenge sooner or later!"

"Ouch!" He let out a muffled grunt as he felt the pain. Elijah looked down at his shoes, then at the woman hiding behind the couch. His countenance sank and he said, "Come here!"

"No way! I'm not stupid!" She didn't want to obey!

"Come right away!"

"I don't want to. Don't you think I don't know you want to get back at me!" She had thought of that.

"You silly woman, if I want to catch you, it will be very easy!"

"Humph!" Esther looked away, "Just come and get me, don't simply threaten!"

"Babe!" He stared at her, his cold male voice piercing her eardrums, "Come here!"

"Why are you being so mean to me? I'll be right over!" She pouted and walked over. He must be in a lot of pain after she kicked him so hard just now.

She approached him cautiously. "If you're in pain, then step on me! I did it on purpose anyway, I just did it on purpose to get revenge!"

Looking at his leather shoes that she had squashed to flat, she made a face in her mind as they were a pair of high-quality designer shoes.

I'll forgive you!" He
