You, Me And Our Genius Twins Chapter 109

Chapter 109 I Don’t Want to Impose

Madeline backed away from Sebastian as she eyed him warily and asked, “What did you just say? I thought we agreed that this husband-and-wife thing is only an act!”

“You think too little of me,” Sebastian said dryly as he walked up to her, closing the distance between them. “I’m not asking you to strip entirely—just a fraction so that I can take a look at your scars.”

She froze. “My scars?”

“Yes,” he affirmed. “Didn’t you say that Isabel and Angie whipped you when you were young and you still have the scars from the lashings?” Let me take a look at them. With the right treatment, they might fade or disappear.”

Madeline couldn’t wrap her head around this. “That won’t be necessary. I’ll be wearing clothes all the time to cover them up, so don’t trouble yourself.”

“Let me take a look,” Sebastian insisted. He was a perfectionist, and the thought of Madeline’s flawless skin being marred irked him for some reason.

Presently, she clutched her clothes as if they would fall right off her if she didn’t and shook her head. “No, there really isn’t a need for that. I really…”

“Overlook your own interests all you want, but you should at least think of the kids,” he countered firmly. “What if they want you to bring them to the beach someday? Are you going to wear a swimsuit without revealing those scars? Or are you never going to bring Aldo and Buddy to the beach so that you’ll never have to wear a swimsuit? What if the kids come across your scars by accident or some other? You don’t want them to be heartbroken, do you?”

“I…” Madeline hesitated and bit down on her lower lip. “Fine, but let me take a shower first.”

He was pleased by his own powers of persuasion, so Sebastian smiled at her and said, “Go ahead.”

As such, she bounded into the shower and dried her hair afterward. Then, she slipped into her pajamas before coming out of the bathroom.

Meanwhile, Sebastian had showered as well, and he was clad in his dressing robe as he sat on the bed while typing away on his laptop. When he saw that Madeline had come out of the shower, he closed his laptop and set it aside before glancing in her direction.
