"I didn’t." Serena said firmly, "Elias Lancaster, we are legally married, do you really not trust me?"
Elias reached out and stroked her cheek, "Of course, I trust that my darling isn’t like that."
"See, isn’t that right?" She took his restless hand in hers, worriedly glancing around the car.
Thankfully, it’s almost time for class; the classmates should have gone to the classroom now, right?
"Honey, you were just speaking up for another man." Elias’ tone was so jealous it could rot your teeth.
Serena was speechless, "I just felt like you could ease up a little, didn’t you see you scared him to tears?
Besides, haven’t you noticed that classmates are all afraid of you? They don’t dare look at you and are sneakily peeking; if this keeps up, do you still want your reputation?"
"I don’t know." Elias said.
Serena didn’t discuss it further, turning the page on that topic.
"You should hurry to work, or you’ll have to work overtime tonight!" Serena struggled free from his lap.
Class is about to start in a few minutes; got to let this man hurry off to work, he can’t stay as a study companion any longer.
"Are you annoyed by me, trying to kick me out." Elias said, feeling wronged.
Which word was she using to drive him out?
But to get him off to work quickly, she still coaxed him, "I’m not annoyed, nor trying to kick you out, just want you to finish work quickly and come home early tonight."
She spoke from the heart, she saw Elias working overtime herself. ʀᴇᴀᴅ ʟᴀᴛᴇsᴛ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs ᴀᴛ 𝕟𝕠𝕧𝕖𝕝·𝘧𝙞𝙧𝙚·𝔫𝔢𝔱
The past period was so busy she didn’t see him for a whole week!
Besides, it’s year-end, surely very busy.
Elias finally put on a smile, "Give me a kiss."
Serena blushed a bit, glancing outside the car.
Elias immediately closed the car door.
"Someone might pass by soon."
"No one’s around, honey, just give me a kiss." Elias wouldn’t take no for an answer.
Serena couldn’t resist this shameless man, and she gave Elias a peck on the lips.
"Alright, off to work with you, I’ll be late for class." She urged.
But how could Elias be satisfied with a brief touch? He lowered his head, caught her lips, and indulged in a deep kiss.
Serena felt her heart leap to her throat, scared that someone might see them.
But seeing the closed car door, she thought, no one should see, right?
Elias lightly bit her.
Afterwards, Elias thoroughly savored the taste before releasing her.
Serena panted, giving him a coquettish glance, "Alright, I need to go to class now."
After speaking, she opened the car door and got off Elias’ lap.
Elias pulled her unexpectedly, making her turn around.
Elias wrapped his arm around her waist, dropping a kiss on her lips.
Just then a few classmates walked by.
Serena’s face instantly flushed.
This man... his skin is so thick!
The class bell rang, she couldn’t care about any of this, and dashed towards the classroom.
As she left, Reese and Nia naturally followed her, leaving Elias with empty hands and an even brighter smile.
Those few classmates covered their mouths, laughing as they returned to class.
Master Lancaster and his wife’s relationship is really good!
This couple is so sweet!
Serena felt too embarrassed to face people, she jogged all the way to the classroom, luckily returning before the teacher arrived.
Sitting down, she covered her face with her hand, gently panting.
Thinking about those classmates who saw, their gaze...
Such a large-scale socially dead moment, she wished she could find a hole to crawl into.
If she had known Elias would do that in front of classmates, she would never have let him in the car.
Now it’s so mortifying.
She could only pray those few classmates wouldn’t spread the word, otherwise, the whole school would know, utterly embarrassing.
Finally, after school, Elias came to pick her up.
Seeing Elias, Serena got mad and started hitting him!
This man is really... thick-skinned as a city wall.
Thinking of how classmates looked at her, so ambiguous, she felt embarrassed.
Elias let her hit him for quite a while before pulling her into an embrace, rubbing her hands.
Serena turned indignant like a blowfish, turning her head to look out the car window, ignoring him.
Elias cradled her face, meeting her eyes, "Honey, please don’t be angry?"
This time, Serena wouldn’t be coaxed so easily.
Otherwise, this man will pull the same stunt next time!
Thinking of how he deliberately let classmates see.
Serena’s heart raged internally.
Elias spent all night coaxing before she finally forgave him.
Of course, it was after he repeatedly promised, Serena forgave him for this excessive act.
They had planned to enjoy a dating weekend.
As this week approached the weekend, Elias had everything arranged.
On Saturday, Serena had no classes, Elias left his company in his father’s hands.
After breakfast, with Elias’ help, she donned a thick coat, and they left hand in hand.
Winter had come to Aethelgard, it was a bit cold, Elias tucked her small hand into his pocket.
Elias drove and took her away from Norris Gardens.
No one else would bother them today, early morning dating couples aren’t common.
Serena was very excited about today’s itinerary; she was curious to see what surprise Elias had prepared.
This time, Elias had done a lot of homework, thoroughly researched, taking Serena to the couple’s dating holy ground.
In the morning, the crowd was sparse, when they arrived, there were barely any cars in the parking lot.
He held Serena’s hand as they walked down the path.
This spot was made famous by influencers; shops lined the sides, and there were several places with beautiful scenery.
At this time, it was still early; there weren’t many couples, and the adjacent shops hadn’t opened yet, making the path very quiet.
Serena’s hand in Elias’ pocket felt very warm.
"Did we come too early? There’s hardly anyone." She observed the desolate path and asked.
Elias glanced at his wrist, "It is a bit early, but soon, there’ll be more people."
By eleven o’clock, the crowd began to increase, and the shops gradually opened.
Suddenly, it felt lively.
"What should we do now?" Serena asked.
