And The Daddy Is… The Infertile Guy?!

Chapter 211

Gwendolyn hurriedly closed her eyes and pulled the comforter over herself, feigning sleep.

She could hear the door creak open, footsteps drawing nearer. The mattress sank beside her, and a familiar scent of sandalwood, faint but unmistakable, filled the air

It was Howard!

Her eyelashes quvored slightly as the bitterness and complexity within her fermented.

The wall lamp cast a dim glow, beneath which Howard’s austere featums were like carved slona. In raached out with warm fingers, gently tracing the comer of her eye

She was crying

In a gentle voice, Howard said, “Gwendolyn, Eknow you’m awake” NôvelDrama.Org holds this content.

Busted, Gwendolyn slowly opened her eyes, meeting Howard’s calm, unfathomable gaze.

Her eyes swelled and were red as chemies, brimming with accusation and

“Upset?” he asked.

Gwendolyn stubbornly shook her head, replying. “Not at all. It’s late, Mr. Chadwick. You should head back and get some rest” Her tone was cold and distant, urging him to leave.

Howard gazed at her steadily, then said, “Fine, then I’ll leave.”

He was a master at reading people’s minds and saw right through her petulance.

She was insecure deep down, lacking courage.

Gwendolyn felt a sour ache in her heart. Stray hairs clung to her temples. As he rose to leave, her eyes filled with tears, blurring her

vision.

Didn’t he want to explain anything to her?

“Silly girl” Howard suddenly turned back, saw her like that, and moved over her pinning her down on the soft bed.

Havering over her, he asked, “Will you be able to sleep if I leave tonight?”

Gwendolyn stared at him, too afraid to ask. Voicing those words felt like surrendering to him. Affairs of the heart were a game of strategy. She might be naive, but she didn’t want to submit

“I can,” she said defiantly,

Howard traced her lips with his finger, captivated by their softness. “What’s it gonna take to get those lips to spill the beans?”

Gwendolyn’s hands clutched the sheets tightly, her legs stretched taut

Silence fell.

Howard suddenly captured her lips in a passionate, wet kiss. He bit her plump, glistening lips with passion, his hands gripping her slender waist.

Tears welled in Gwendolyn’s eyes, and she couldn’t suppress

the robbing sounds from her throat

His hand lifted the hem of her nightgown, and Gwendolyn yelled in shock and shame, “… I’ve got my period.” Her eyes were red, vulnerable

Breathing raggedly, he whispered against her cheek. “Does it hurt?”

Gwendolyn felt a harsh sense of injustice, tears pouring down her face. “No, it doesn’t hurt she protested.

But really, it hurt terribly! She felt as if her abdomen was sliced by a dull knife over and over.

Howard wiped her tears and said, “Still pretending to be strong.”

Gwendolyn’s face was streaked with tears, her eyes like washed glass, clear Hamilton that important to you?”

Howard rolled over to lie beside her, speaking softly. “Gwendolyn, I wanted to save you tonight.”

But he had been cheated.

The murky waters of Sapphire Serenity Lake were unforgiving, and Ryan dived in without hesitation to save someone. Howard was certain Ryan was going for Selina, so he swam off in a different direction to save Gwendolyn.

But even Ryan had his deceptions.

Then Howard was entangled by Selina and couldn’t break free.

m sorry for putting you in danger.”

Hearing his explanation, much of the resentment in Gwendolyn’s heart dissipated.

“Mr. Chadwick, do you believe me? I didn’t push her Gwendolyn fell so insecure before this men.

She knew she was falling for Howard. His tender gentlemanliness and restrained passion were poison, and she was addicted.

Howard gently wrapped his arm around her shoulder and said, “Givens your character you don’t need to do such a thing. The Lopez and

the Hamilton families treat her like a treasure. She’s spoiled. Try to evold confrontations with her.”
