The Year I Was the Other Woman To Myself novel Chapter 769

The topic actually highlighted a frustrating reality for them both.

Since Penelope returned from Bridgemere over a month ago, their intimate moments had been painfully sparse. They had only managed one successful session, and every attempt since had been thwarted by their tiny saboteurs. Hubert constantly demanded to sleep in Penelope's bed, Julian always had a barrage of questions for Theodore, and the two boys fought incessantly. Now, with Kristin in the mix, their house was total chaos.

Penelope couldn't help but laugh, remembering a recent disaster. They had finally exhausted all three kids into sleeping, practically sprinting back to their room. The moment Theodore took off his shirt, Hubert barged in, wailing.

Panicking, Theodore had sprinted into the bathroom. By the time he reemerged in his pajamas, Hubert had already claimed a spot under Penelope's blankets, innocently asking Theodore why he was in Mommy's room—was he having nightmares too?

Clearly recalling the same memory, Theodore's expression darkened.

"Point is, we are not going home tonight. We're going straight to a hotel."

Penelope gave his lower half a pointed look. "Wow, you're really desperate, huh?"

Theodore's lips twitched. "I take it you've already had enough to eat."

Instantly, Penelope shoved a massive piece of steak into her mouth.

"You are too powerful, boss. I need to load up on protein, or I won't survive the night."

Watching her actually gorge herself on the meat, Theodore couldn't help but laugh.

"Slow down. We're going to catch a movie after this."

"Dinner, then a movie, and maybe we can join the elderly for a stroll in the park? Are we a senior citizen couple now?"

Theodore's eyes darkened. "Sounds like you're the one in a hurry."

Penelope flashed him a cheeky grin. "You clearly don't look in the mirror enough. You vastly underestimate how much of a temptation you are."

Seeing her put on a comically lustful expression, Theodore leaned into it.

"Since you recognize quality when you see it, I'll make sure you're completely satisfied later."
