Carrying His Heir While Fighting His Lies novel Chapter 40

Ava'S POV

"We should get going," I said, opening my eyes and looking at the sun playing peek-a-boo in the cloudy weather in the open sky.

"Hmm, we should." Coming back face-to-face with me, he spoke unwelcomely.

I could not control myself, and I kissed his nose for his cute antics.

"Now move," I said, nuzzling him.

"Come, let us get you to shower." He spoke, getting off me.

"What? No, no way. First, you go, and then I will take it by myself." I know what this shower will end up being.

But ignoring what I just said, he picked me up in bridal style and started walking towards the room we stayed in for the night.

"Blake put me down. I can walk." I said, wriggling in his arm.

"I know you can," he said, but did not obey.

I stopped giving in to his stubbornness and let him take it where he wanted to, and as I said again, we ended up having one more steaming session in the middle of a shower.

I noticed he was wearing his three-piece full suit, standing in front of the mirror, brushing his wet hair, and looking tempting. But I stopped my horse and looked on the other side, and a sundress and innerwear were lying on the bed for me. I took them, quickly got ready, and went up to see what he was doing.

He was sailing the yacht back to the harbor, and for me, a person wearing a three-piece full suit sailing the boat was worth watching.

Gray is his color. His gray full suit, polished shoes, and aviators were making him as hot as possible.

"Like it is what you see, darling." Feeling my stare, he spoke, still looking ahead towards the harbor, and I instantly averted my gaze to the other side but stayed mum.

I saw him smirking, but I ignored him. I know if I say anything, it will not go well. For me, at least.

Getting out of the yacht, I noticed the bodyguard was waiting for us in the black BMW SUV. and we settled ourselves in it and flew off to go back home.

"Darling, I need to head to the office after dropping you home," Blake informed me while typing something on his phone.

And nod while replying to my email.

We reached the home in time, and the car stopped at the doorway.

"See you soon," he said, turning his body towards me and packing on my lips.

Gosh, he and his PDA

I made an angry face and told him about the bodyguard, but he shrugged his shoulders as if it were no big deal.

"Shameless," I mouthed to him.

"I shall show you how shameless I can be, darling." He muttered in my ear, and the entire hair on my body woke up to his words.

I somehow know what he wants to know, but honestly, I do not even know the answer yet.

"Nathan, one thing is clear. I like him, but I am not sure yet whether I want to stay here. I guess we need to give some time to this relationship. I do not want to have any discussion in a hurry." I finished giving him the answer to his unasked question.

"That is what I want. Do not rush into anything. Take your time and always remember, I am with you." He spoke, giving me his best smile.

"I know you are," I said, smiling back.

"What do you know?" Sam spoke, coming back towards us.

"There is nothing you need to know. Now tell me who called." Nathan asked, dismissing the topic we were talking about.

"Oh, yes, Mr. Mathew's assistant called. She wants us to close the deal tomorrow." She said this while taking her seat.

"Alright, then we shall leave for Philadelphia tomorrow morning and will be back by night itself," Nathan said, looking at his phone.

And I looked back at Sam, and she looked at me, and I winked at her. I remember their last visit.

Sam's cheeks heated, knowing my meaning very well, and she averted her gaze from me to her lap, and that made me giggle like a kid.

Nathan looks up and raises his eyebrow as if asking what, but I shake my head in silence.

He again got back to his work, and I was about to walk back to my room when I stopped hearing, "By the way, what happened to your neck?" Sam spoke, and my hand flew to my neck to check, and then it hit me.
