“All right.” Armand laughed again as he kissed her. “We'll head to Regality Gardens.”

Genevieve grunted in assent.

The car exited the underground garage and cruised on the road. “I was supposed to dine with Yuvan at an exotic restaurant,” Genevieve said to Armand as she touched her stomach, “but Charlotte called to invite me to the club before I'd even taken two bites. I'm starving.”

“Why were you having a meal with Yuvan?” Armand asked in surprise.

“Because I was willing to,” Genevieve replied with childish petulance. “I'm not married. Why shouldn't I dine with a man who asked me out?”

Armand knew she was trying to aggravate him as she still felt a little jealous.

He grabbed her hand and nibbled the back of it.

Genevieve glared at him. “You're learning to bully me. You're not the man I love anymore.”

“This is mistreating you?” Armand cast her a sideways glance.

Genevieve understood his meaning at once. She chided him for being an old pervert and tried to retract her hand, but Armand held on tightly while his other hand held the steering wheel steady.

After parking and entering the mall, Armand procured a cart and told Genevieve to pick out whatever she felt like eating.

The couple then returned to their condominium in Regality Gardens with several bags of groceries. Armand rolled up his sleeves, rinsed a plateful of strawberries from the bag, and brought them to the living room to Genevieve before heading back to the central kitchen counter to prepare dinner.

Genevieve gazed at his tall frame, busy with dinner preparations, and came to the kitchen barefoot to hug him from behind.

Armand fed Genevieve a meatball upon making sure they are cool enough to be eaten.

Genevieve opened her mouth to receive it before launching into another complaint. “Why would you fry something just because I said I was hungry? Deep-fried stuff like this has a ton of calories. I would put on weight easily if I ate it at night.”

Armand chuckled. “No problem. I'll supervise your workout tonight.”

Genevieve's cheeks flushed red upon being teased by him twice in a row. She was also slightly annoyed and reached into Armand's shirt.

The delicate touch of her fingers caused Armand's body to stiffen, and his breath became labored subconsciously.

“Remove your hand, Darling.” Armand could not pull her arm away as his hands were dirty from handling the ingredients. “Dinner would have to be postponed several hours if you don't behave yourself,” he said hoarsely.

“You started it.” Genevieve considered herself avenged when she saw the man's discomfort.
