Slam! Michael angrily slammed a pile of résumés on the table. After a while, Nathan sneaked over and took them away—they still had their uses.

Sophia took a bath and went to bed after settling her work. What a crazy day… I can’t believe so many things happened in such a short time. And, all I did was a tooth extraction!

Similarly, Michael was done with his work for the day and lay down beside her. They were silent for a moment, staring at the fish projected on the ceiling in a daze. Suddenly, he turned around and hugged her. “Can I do it today?”

She resolutely rejected him. “No!”

The stitches from the wound in my mouth have not been taken out yet, and he wants to kiss me?! Don’t even think about it!

Ever since the tooth extraction surgery, Michael had been holding himself back. Although the operation didn’t affect much, it was still surgery. It was rather unreasonable of him to want to make love to her after she had just gone through an operation. Therefore, they had not had sex for the past few days. He couldn’t even kiss her on the mouth for fear of causing an infection. Since she wasn’t willing, he fondled her slightly and rubbed against her. After a while, he finally managed to turn her on…

Her recovery was going very well, and she successfully had her stitches removed. As she was leaving the hospital, she noticed a furtive figure hiding in a corner.

Irene? She raised her eyebrows when she saw the figure. She must have obtained the information in advance and came here to ‘coincidentally’ run into Michael… It’s too bad for her, but he didn’t come today.
