Cedrick could not help but gasp #ow. That was cold and intense

The master bedroom was filled with nothing but the gentle breathing sounds of children in deep slumber

The study on the other hand, was filled with restlessness

The echoes of scolding and grunting reverberated throughout the study

From a distance, the rhythm and sound blended like a harmonious melody.

Gwendolyn was careful with her strength, administering a light but noticeable swelling to Cedrick’s rear end

After the punishment, she tenderly massaged the soreness.

That prelude signaled the start of a sweet and exhilarating night.

Meanwhile, at the Newton residence. Whitney sat on the couch in the bedroom, anxiously waiting for Charles

It was already the dead of night, yet Charles still had not returned Where did he go? What is he boy with?

She took out her phone, opened her chat with him, and typed a message Mr. Newton, where are you? No matter

what, tonight is our first night of marriage

Everyone ware an

Whitney sensed that something was amiss. Why is thereddenly much a commation? Who’s injured?

the

Just as she was overwhelmed with confusion, die soon noticed two housekeepers supporting Charles escorting him

from the garden to the villa, nurned out Charles was the one injured

The garden was shrouded in darkness, and the dimly lit lamps lining the path made it difficult for her to see where

Charles was injured. Since they have to help him in, does it mean his leg is injured?

Whitney immediately opened the bedroom door and ran downstairs to receive him.

Just as she entered the living hall, she caught sight of the housekeepers helping Charles inside.

The well-lit living hall allowed her to finally discern his condition.

His right hand and left foot were encased in casts, indicating fractures,

His face also bore noticeable injuries, covered in bruised and swollen marks.

“What happened? He was perfectly fine during the day. How did he suddenly end up with such injuries?” Whitney

inquired with concern.

Charles flashed a nonchalant grin. “I’m fine.”

Whitney helped carry him back to the bedroom and covered him with a comforter.

Charles sent away the servants, their mournful expressions resembling those of mourners grieving the loss of a

loved one, and retained only two doctors for a final examination before bedtime.

“Besides the fractures in the right hand and left foot, the other wounds are superficial. They are not severe. It’s

going to take a hundred days for the bones and tendons to heal, so during these days, try to minimize walking and

rest as much as possible. This will expedite the recovery. Mr. Newton,” one of the doctors advised.

“Okay.” Charles responded absentmindedly, holding his phone in his left hand and idly playing with hitney, on the

other hand, paid careful attention to the doctor’s instructions. The doctors left some medication behind and advised

her to administer another dose that evening, assuring her they would return in the morning to administer an IV drip

for Charles.

Charles remained oblivious, engrossed in his phone.

After seeing off the doctors, Whimey returned with a cup of warm water

“Mr. Newton, it’s time to take your medication,” she said.

Charles stared at the screen of his phone, absentmindedly reaching out with his right hand Only when his

movements were restricted by the cast did he remember about the cast

Whitney suggested. “Why don’t you set your phone asale for a moment and take your medication first

Ignoring her, Charles leaned back against the headboard, emanating a lazy demeanor. “Feed themedication in me

Whinney’s heart started racing as she did not know how to reart to his request. How am I supposed to feed thisTo

him?

Noticing the embarrassed look on her face, he teased. “Did you think you were supposed to do it with your mouth?”

Whitney’s face instantly flushed, and she lowered her head to conceal her embarrassment.

As Charles observed her expression, he could not help but wonder if he found her shy demeanor oddly endearing

because they were now married.

“Have you ever taken care of a patient before?” he asked.

“No,” she replied

“Tll teach you then. Despite his injury, he seemed to be in a good mood and surprisingly patient. “Put the

medication in my mouth and bring the water closer to my lips. When you feed me the water, go slowly…”

Whitney followed his instructions, placing all six pills in his mouth and bringing the cup of warm water to his lips.

Charles tilted his head back and took a sip of water, his Adam’s apple bobbing as he swallowed, exuding a subtle

sensuality.

Whitney’s gaze inexplicably fell on his well-defined Adam’s apple.

She unconsciously swallowed hard.
