Filed to story: My Husband Regrets Divorcing Me (Audrey & Cornell)
Luciana’s voice trailed off. She suddenly remembered that Kyler didn’t know about Audrey’s pregnancy yet. She didn’t want to mention it without Audrey’s consent.
So, she changed her words.
“If Audrey comes back next time and I find her thinner, I’ll let her stay here so I can personally take care of her.”
Cornell had no objections. He nodded in agreement.
Audrey had already passed the inception of pregnancy, so she had a good appetite tonight. As a result, she had eaten a lot.
Kyler was in high spirits, and he had a few sips of wine. Cornell also drank a few glasses with him.
After putting down his wine glass, Cornell hardly touched his food.
Instead, he spent his entire time serving Audrey. He even wore gloves and peeled some shrimp for her. He piled them onto her plate like a hill and whispered, “Don’t be picky. Your body needs a balanced nutrition.”
Audrey’s face suddenly felt hot. She knew she was blushing. But she said nothing and just ate all the shrimp he peeled for her.
This made Cornell very satisfied, and the smile in his charming eyes was particularly obvious.
When they finished their meal, they stayed in the living room and chatted for a while. Suddenly, it began to rain outside. It was a bit heavy, so Luciana felt it was unsafe for Cornell and Audrey to drive home. After all, the road was slippery on a rainy night. So, she arranged for them to stay here tonight.
Luciana took Audrey upstairs to the room where she used to stay.
When she saw Cornell following behind them, she stopped him and said with a solemn face, “You drank tonight. You can’t sleep with Audrey in the same room.”
Cornell frowned.
“I only had a few glasses. I’m not drunk at all.”
“No,” Luciana refused firmly.
“What if you lose control and accidentally hurt Audrey?”
Audrey, standing at the side silently, felt a little embarrassed upon hearing these words. Her face flushed.
“Luciana…”
Cornell knew he couldn’t change Luciana’s mind, so he had no choice but to reluctantly head toward the guest room across the hall.
It was only then that Luciana led Audrey into the room. Luciana sat on the edge of the bed and motioned for Audrey to sit beside her.
Obviously, she intended to stay for a while. She held Audrey’s hand and started talking about their daily lives.
Then, she asked, “Audrey, have you and Cornell reconciled?”
Audrey was silent for a moment. Actually, she was also uncertain about their current status. She must admit that the changes in his attitude toward her and the care he showed her undeniably thawed the ice in her heart. However, their relationship wasn’t clear to her yet.
When Luciana saw Audrey’s hesitation, she immediately understood that Audrey hadn’t made up her mind yet. However, the way they interacted tonight reignited the hope in her heart. Actually, Luciana deliberately convinced Audrey to delay the divorce because she thought Cornell might win Audrey’s heart back.
Judging from what she had noticed tonight, it seemed that Cornell had changed. However, it wasn’t enough yet. He still needed to work hard to win Audrey’s heart back.
At the thought of this, Luciana held Audrey’s hand and said earnestly, “Audrey, I know the slim chance of people who love each other tying the knot. So, if you both like each other, you should cherish this marriage, especially now that you are expecting a baby. I hope you could give Cornell a chance and see his love for you. Don’t hasten to get a divorce just because of some misunderstandings.”
Audrey pursed her lips. There seemed to be too many misunderstandings between her and Cornell. And they couldn’t even talk nicely about those things.
Would it be better if she told him everything?
After Luciana left, Audrey took a quick shower and lay down. But after a while, she just kept tossing and turning in bed. She couldn’t fall asleep.
Probably because she was in a strange room with an unfamiliar bed.
Outside, it started raining again. While listening to the rain spattering down the roof, she lay in bed with eyes wide open and stared at the ceiling, feeling somewhat dazed.
Suddenly, she heard a slight noise from the balcony.
Audrey was so startled that she froze for a moment. But when she heard the sound of the rain outside again, she thought maybe the balcony door was not closed properly. She got up to check it.
But as soon as she walked to the balcony, she heard a squeak.
The glass door was pushed open.
Audrey’s eyes widened. She was so scared that she was about to scream. But before she could make a sound, her mouth was covered by a big hand.
“Don’t scream! It’s me.”
Audrey regained her composure and was surprised to see Cornell’s face.
Cornell let go of her mouth, and she immediately asked in a daze, “How. How did you get here?”
“I climbed the window,” Cornell replied succinctly.
He seemed to have just taken a shower. The fragrance his body exuded was particularly refreshing. His hair was disheveled. Obviously, he didn’t comb it neatly. Some damp strands fell on his forehead. He looked more relaxed now than during the day, yet he was exceptionally charming.
Audrey blinked a few times. After staring at Cornell for a long time, she finally found her voice.
“What are you doing here? Why don’t you sleep yet?”
Cornell stepped forward, squinted at her, and asked, “What do you think I come here for?”
Audrey’s heart pounded violently. It was as if something had exploded in her chest.
There was an awkward silence between them, and the atmosphere suddenly became strange.
Audrey pursed her lips. She felt so uneasy that she stepped back a little.
But suddenly, Cornell pulled her into his arms.
He wrapped his arms around her waist, making her feel his warm palms.
Then he lowered his head, found her lips, and kissed her.
The kiss was so deep that they both gasped for breath. When he let go of her lips, they were already panting.
Audrey felt weightless when Cornell carried her to the bed. The soft silk bed sheet yielded beneath their weights, and she was pressed down by him.
Audrey reminded him in a trembling voice, “Luciana said you can’t come here, right?”
Cornell lowered his head and kissed her neck. He lifted the hem of her nightgown and said hoarsely, “Don’t worry. I know what to do. I won’t hurt you.”
“No. Don’t do it…”
Before Audrey could finish her words, she was already stimulated by his actions. She subconsciously clenched the bed sheet under her body tightly.
While Cornell roved around her body, he found that she wore nothing except her thin silk nightgown. He raised his eyebrows slightly, looked at her, and asked meaningfully, “Are you waiting for me?”
Audrey quickly explained, “No, I’m not.”
Actually, she deliberately didn’t wear underwear tonight because she felt restrained and uncomfortable. After all, she was pregnant, and her breasts had gotten bigger. Besides, she ate a lot tonight.
What was more, she was about to sleep. She thought it wasn’t necessary to wear underwear.
Cornell smiled. The curtains on the balcony were not drawn, and the pale moonlight sprinkled upon his handsome face. The desire in his eyes was undisguised.
“ALL right. If you say so.”
After saying this, he bent his long legs to hold her up, lowered his head, and bit her.
His slightly damp hair brushed against Audrey’s neck. Every stroke seemed deliberate, and it was neither too light nor too heavy. It created a tantalizing sensation in her.
As he continued, Audrey felt she could no longer stand it, and she felt like crying. She reached out, pushed him away, and said, “Cornell, don’t. Your mom said we can’t do it.”
However, Cornell became even more restless. He couldn’t suppress his desire anymore. His arousal was very evident in his husky voice.
“Then, don’t make any sound.”
“But I…”
Audrey wanted to retort. But Cornell suddenly pressed his fingers against her lips, almost prying them apart.
Outside, the rain kept pouring relentlessly. And the spatter of rain on the roof seemed to have added to Cornell’s eagerness.
Audrey gave in. She helplessly raised her neck and closed her eyes, letting him do what he wanted.
It took Cornell almost two hours to satisfy himself. Then he looked at his watch and said, “It’s time to go to bed.”
Audrey blushed. She saw he was clearly aroused, but tried to hold back his own desire. She glanced at him.
But Cornell seemed to have seen through her. He asked considerately, “Do you want more?”
Audrey was rendered speechless.
