President's Substitute Wife

“No, I mean you...” I wondered why I let Sean sleep here.

I immediately said, “forget it. You can leave now. I’ll see you off.”

“No, since you let me sleep here. I take it seriously.” Sean hugged me tight and took me to the bedroom step by step.

He put me on the bed and knelt on it.

“Sean, I think you are too tired. I just want you to have a good rest, not to sleep with me!”

I got up and wanted to get out of bed.

In the face of Sean, I was really afraid that my sanity would be swallowed.

After all, I just wanted to hold him and rely on him when I was near him.

He hurt me five years ago, but I...

I knew I shouldn’t, but I wanted to jump in.

Sean took my arm. “I’m kidding. Actually, I haven’t slept well for three days. Now even if you kiss it, it may not stand up.”

“Three days?” I looked at Sean. “Why didn’t you sleep?”

“I have a lot to deal with and a lot of pressure. I called the shareholders and the bank. I...” Sean took me to his side and held me. “Let me hold you and lie down. I’ll be fine in a minute.”

His words were very seductive.

I couldn’t refuse him at all.

I nodded. “Then lie on my lap.”

“No, I want to hold you.”

Sean put me straight down and held me tight.

He said nothing.

The whole bedroom fell into silence.

When was the last time I was so close to him?

I was in his arms and close to him. I could hear his heart beating.

“Honey, soon I may have nothing. I may never hold you again then.”

“Why?”

I was nervous to hear him.

“Do you know why I said I will lose if I gamble with him?” Sean held me and whispered. I didn’t speak. He continued, “because in
