Greg Jensen was restless before he even left the house, and after finally getting things done, how could he hold back any longer?
Thanks to recent care, Lois Abbott’s figure had become increasingly full.
Especially her skin, so soft that it seemed it could break with a blow, looked even more delicate and tender against the backdrop of a black lace nightgown.
A light pinch would leave a bright red mark, adding a special feeling to the touch.
“Don’t, my sister is next door…”
Moments later, the bedroom was filled with the romantic atmosphere and sounds.
In the next room, Lois was talking to Jacky Wolfe about Greg Jensen, leaving him bewildered.
Particularly when Jacky Wolfe heard that not only was Greg Jensen skillful physically, but he was also an exceptional doctor, his mouth hung open in an 0 shape.
“How can your brother-in-law be so amazing?”
“Don’t you believe me?”
Jacky Wolfe quickly shook his head: “No, it’s just, how can one person have the energy to learn so much, and be so good at all of it?”
“That’s what I’m saying, otherwise why would I say my brother is amazing.”
Lois spoke with pride, twinkling stars in her eyes, and said dreamily, “When I look for a boyfriend, I definitely want to find a man as amazing as my brother.”
Watching her lovestruck expression, Jacky Wolfe couldn’t help but tease, “Why don’t you just go for your brother-in-law then?”
“Air, that… that wouldn’t be right…”
Lois’s face blushed slightly while she hurriedly declined, but inside she was quite moved.
Because she had indeed thought about it, only feeling it was somewhat unfair to her sister.
Jacky Wolfe’s gaze became somewhat fascinated, murmuring, “What’s wrong with that, if he were my brother-in-law, I would…”
“You would what?”
Jacky Wolfe was startled, looked up, and saw Lois smiling at him, his face instantly reddened, and he retorted:
“Forget it, I’m not telling you!”
Just then, a strange noise came from the next room.
The two girls froze, instinctively looking in the direction of the master bedroom.
“Are they… doing that kind of thing?”
Jacky Wolfe’s face turned a bit red, asking softly, and then suddenly paused.
Because Lois had actually pressed her ear against the wall.
“Lois, what… what are you doing?” Jacky Wolfe asked blankly.
Lois turned her head, gave him a mischievous smile, and said, “Listening in, of course, don’t you want to hear?”
“I also…”
Jacky Wolfe subconsciously nodded, then realized it was wrong and quickly shook his head like a rattle.
“Hehe, if you want to listen, just listen, there’s nobody else around.”
Without waiting for a reply, Lois pulled him over, then pressed her ear against the wall to listen.
Curiosity stirred in Jacky Wolfe’s heart, yet he felt a bit embarrassed, hesitating.
In the end, curiosity overwhelmed his reason, and he, imitating Lois, pressed his ear against the wall to listen.
After a while, Lois turned around with flushed cheeks to find Jacky Wolfe in the same state, his cheeks burning red like ripe apples.
Time passed, and next door quieted down, leaving only the teasing voices of Lois Abbott and Greg Jensen.
“If only you could find a Lois.”
The room suddenly fell silent.
The two girls stared at each other, faces filled with disbelief.
“Lois, did you hear what your sister just said?”
“Heard… maybe heard it…”
Lois wasn’t sure if she had heard wrong, feeling her cheeks burning, her mind wandering with wild thoughts.
After a long while, she turned her head, only to see Jacky Wolfe looking at her with a half-smile, she couldn’t help but say:
“Why are you looking at me like that?”
“Haha, why do you say that?”
Lois buried her head in the blanket, her voice muffled as she said, “Going to sleep, not talking to you anymore.”
Jacky pulled away the blanket, smiling as he asked, “Lois, if he really came looking for you, would you agree?”
“Air, I… I don’t know.”
“Oh gosh, I’m so embarrassed!”
Lois covered her flushed cheeks with both hands, her head lowered in flustered embarrassment.
Jacky chuckled softly, but his eyes couldn’t help wandering back to the room next door, filled with longing.
In the master bedroom, Lois lay weakly on Greg’s chest, breathing heavily, “They couldn’t have heard us, could they?”
“They definitely heard, whose fault is it for being so loud,” Greg said with a mischievous grin.
Lois gave him a cold look and snorted, “Blaming me? It’s all your fault, you have no self-control.”
“Haha, holding such a beauty in my arms, who could resist but the eunuchs?”
“You sure talk a lot.”
Lois shot him another look, her smile betraying a hint of pride.
All of a sudden, Greg thought of something and exclaimed in shock, “When you told me to go find Lois just now, she didn’t overhear that, did she?”
“Air, surely not?”
Lois sat up quickly, anxiously asking, “What if she did hear? What then?”
“What can we do, if she heard, she heard,” Greg sighed.
Lois’s face turned crimson to the tips of her ears, and she buried her face into his chest, muttering, “Oh my, how embarrassing, how will I explain this to her tomorrow?”
“Keep your heart in your stomach, as long as you don’t bring it up, that little miss definitely won’t dare to,” he reassured her.
“Really?”
“Of course it’s true. Let’s hurry up and take a bath and go to sleep. By the time you wake up tomorrow, you might have already forgotten about it.”
“But I…”
Greg carried Lois to the bathroom for a shower. After drying off, they went back to bed to sleep.
Lois was exhausted and practically fell asleep as soon as she hit the bed.
Greg, on the other hand, wasn’t sleepy at all. Seeing the woman in his arms asleep, he gently placed her aside, got out of bed, and decided to get something to drink.
As he reached the living room, he saw a slender figure walking around the corner.
The next second, the figure bumped right into his arms.
“Alt…”
Lois let out a startled yelp as the water glass she was holding dropped.
Greg, quick as lightning, caught the glass in his hand.
However, his grip was a little too strong; the glass did not break, but the water inside spilled all over Lois.
“Brother?”
Lois looked up, saw it was Greg, and her heart relaxed a little. She patted her chest and said, “Gosh, you walk so quietly, you scared me to death.”
Greg smiled wryly, “I can’t exactly shout ‘I’m coming’ every time I walk, can I?”
“Hmph, it’s still your fault, you owe me,” she insisted.
“What do you want me to compensate you with?”
Lois’s eyes gleamed as she said slyly, “How about you keep me company for a while?”
“Alright,”
Greg thought since he couldn’t sleep anyway, he might as well agree.
Seeing this, Lois’s eyes formed crescents, that sweet smile making anyone who saw it feel bright and cheery.
She pulled Greg to sit in front of the living room’s bay window and then asked, “Brother, why aren’t you sleeping?”
“I can’t sleep.”
“Is it because you were thinking of me?”
