Beyond The Divorce - Season 5 Episode 70

Deliberate Actions “I’ll tell you next time.” There was a mischievous tone in his voice that made even this familiar aspect of him seem somewhat endearing. My mind involuntarily wandered for a moment.

Seeing that I was still staring at him, he raised an eyebrow. “Are you jealous?” My face flushed, and I tried to conceal my embarrassment. “Of course not.” He poured a glass of juice and gently placed it in front of me, his gaze fixed on my face. “Hold on a second.” Then he lifted my chin and lightly wiped the corner of my mouth with his

index finger. The gesture was an extremely intimate one.

Feeling awkward, I flinched slightly.

Harmony’s gaze remained fixed on our table. I was sure our actions would be completely visible to her.

“What’s there to be afraid of?” He furrowed his brow slightly and asked in a calm tone.

“Didn’t you see the things online today?” I intentionally asked him. I was certain there was some deliberate intention behind his earlier actions.

“So what?” he replied, deliberately skewering a piece of lobster and dipping it in sauce before bringing it to my mouth.

Ina nervous whisper, I said, “I can do

it myself. You don’t have to do this.” “I like doing it.” He insisted and fed me another bite, raising an eyebrow. “1 enjoy feeding you. My little girl, I like spoiling you.” His words made it hard for me to breathe. I wasn’t a little girl, and it felt exaggerated for him to call me “my little girl”.

I’had to open my mouth to accept the food, while feeling my face burning up.

But refusing it would spoil the mood.

As I chewed the food he had fed me, | helplessly remarked, “You’re just giving those groundless rumors more material,” “Let them be busy,” he said

nonchalantly, His words made me chuckle involuntarily. I imagined this must be quite eye-catching for Harmony. But I couldn’t control this situation at all.

When we left the restaurant, Harmony was still there.

As we walked out, I mentioned, “Two days ago at the supermarket, I ran into a fan who mistook me for Harmony.

She wanted to get my autograph.” “There’s nothing to compare. You guys are not even alike.” He pulled me closer by the waist, bringing me to his side. “There’s only one of you in this world.” I’smiled contentedly. Who wouldn’t enjoy hearing such sweet words? I

casually replied, “Then I won’t ever get lost.” His arm around my waist tightened for amoment as he held me closer. “In this vast sea of people, I will always find you.” Our eyes met, and I was deeply moved.

He leaned in and kissed my lips with passion. Though it was brief, my heart raced fiercely.

In a soft voice by my ear, he said, “Let’s go home.” When we arrived at the villa, I was truly tired. It had been a day of non- stop activity. After he had taken a shower, he was on the phone with Ava while waiting for me to come out from the shower. When I emerged, they were |

still chattering away.

He pulled me into his arms and said to Ava on the phone, “Mommy’s here.” Immediately, a squeal came from the other end of the line. “Mommy, I’m so happy.” @ “Why is that?” I asked with a smile.

“Uncle Atlas said he’s coming to Celestis Island to take me home. I’ve been missing you and Uncle Atlas so much!” she chirped in an innocent voice.

“Have you had enough fun yet?” I inquired.

“Not yet, but Mommy and Uncle Atlas are not here. I want to stay with Uncle Atlas. When he comes back to Celestis

Island next time, I’ll come back too.

Oh, by the way, Mommy, Uncle Atlas said Jenny can come with us and stay at our house. Is that true?” Her tone was enthusiastic and without a hint of sadness.

“Of course. She will stay with you from now on.” I glanced at Atlas, and he nuzzled my face. Then, he bit my earlobe, causing me to jerk my neck and burst into laughter.

Ava immediately inquired, “Mommy, why are you laughing?” Blushing, I playfully hit Atlas and said, “I’m just happy that you’re coming back, that’s all.” “Then tell Uncle Atlas to come quickly.” she commanded, her voice sounding like that of a commanding general,

Atlas took the phone from my hand and softly promised, “Okay, I will come. You make sure to have fun, and | I’ll take care of the rest.” “Bye bye, Uncle Atlas. Make sure you come quickly.” Her tender voice drifted off as she ran away.

Atlas tossed the phone aside and pressed me down onto the couch like an impatient leopard. Swift and agile, he kissed me passionately and intently, leaving me with no chance to resist.

Just as we were about to lose ourselves in the moment, the doorbell that was ringing relentlessly interrupted us.
