Chapter 32: The Important Part of Marriage
Chapter 32: The Important Part of Marriage
Alicia finally recovered, but Carlos's hands had reached into her pajamas without hesitation.
She instinctively let out a moan of resistance, but the man on her wouldn't let her go. Gradually, she
was no longer rejected. What else could she do? That was it. Having sex was originally an important
part of a marriage. And this was not a contractual marriage with explicit agreements before marriage.
During this marriage, they should do the normal things that couples did. What’s more, she was also a
normal woman. She also had the same sex needs as men. Sex life was also necessary for physical
and mental health. Anyway, though Carlos's inside was not good enough, his outside was handsome,
not bad.
She was mentally prepared, so she encouraged herself to cooperate with him. Her two hands resting
on the pillow slowly moved to Carlos's back. However, the change from resistance to cooperation at
this moment made Carlos extremely uncomfortable. Instead of kissing Alicia's lips, he buried his head
in her soft and sexy neck and continued to kiss her rudely.
Alicia got hurt. That a man kissed a woman's lips did not mean he loves her deeply. But if he only had
sex with this woman and never kissed her lips, then he definitely did not love her.
The rare courage totally disappeared. She restored the previous state of getting along with him and
asked loudly, "Carlos, do you not hate women now?"
Sure enough, the man who originally was burying in her neck pushed her away without any care and
jumped out of bed after hearing her words.
His eyes were showing a little embarrassment. He walked towards the bathroom. After two steps, he
turned back and warned, "Stay here, don’t move. If you do not listen to my words, you'll see."
Alicia was depressed and upset. She didn't know how Carlos would treat her, but she knew how much
Carlos hated women. At this moment, she was like the fish on the chopping block. The only end was to
let him slay.
After waiting for half an hour, Carlos came out of the bathroom. He only wore a white bathrobe, and his
hair was covered with tiny water drops.
"I don't mean to cross the line. It's just that the weather is getting hotter and my room is too stuffy, so..."
"Did I ask you to explain?"
Carlos seemed very unhappy with his eyebrow up.
Alicia was more scared, as this guy didn't even want to hear her explanation. It seemed that the
consequences were more serious than she imagined.
"Come back early tomorrow night and go out to dinner with me."
"Huh?"
"What? Are you deaf?"
"No, does it have to be tomorrow night?"
Carlos nodded indifferently, "Yes. What? Not okay? "
He expected that she wouldn't dare to refuse. He could talk to her with such a nice attitude. She should
appreciate it. How could she reject...
Carlos was quite confident.
Alicia had a hard time making a choice. She had an appointment with Noah tomorrow night. How could
she break a promise? But if she refused Carlos, this man would not let her go tonight.
"Why not answer me? You really don't have time?"
She didn't say a word for a long time, which made Carlos's look in the face go bad.
What happened to this man after a business trip? Why did he invite her to dinner? And it also was
tomorrow night. God, she had to meet Noah tomorrow night.
If she wanted to pay Noah's favor, she could not stand him up. But she also could not tell the true
reason to Carlos in order to avoid misunderstanding.
"Sorry, unfortunately I have an appointment with my friend tomorrow night."
"Which friend?"
"Ellie, you have met her."
"Don't go."
"No, this is her birthday party. I have known her since college, and we spend every birthday together."
"Really?"
Carlos frowned. Obviously he did not buy it.
"If you don't believe me, just call her to confirm."
Alicia pretended to call Ellie, "No need." Carlos responded impatiently and glared at her, "You are really
busy."
"Then I can't go out with you tomorrow night."
"You have three seconds to disappear from my sight."
As soon as his words stopped, Alicia quickly jumped out of bed and went straight to her own room.
Closing the door, she gasped softly. She didn't wake up from her loss even the room was totally quiet. It
was so unbelievable that this grumpy man didn't do anything to her. And even she refused him, he
showed understanding.
It was already after midnight. She lost sleep in the next hours. As long as she closed her eyes, the
picture of Carlos kissing her would occur to her mind.
After some meditation and speculation, she finally knew what was going on. That he kissed her
definitely was not because of love, but he just wanted to play tricks on her and punish her. However, his
physical response could not be hidden. He had an erection. Any normal man had sexual desires. And it
was not about love but instinct. Carlos might feel kind of embarrassed to have sexual passion for her,
so he forgave her behavior.
In fact, Alicia's guess was absolutely correct. In the morning, the whole family was sitting in the living
room, and Carlos went downstairs with a gift bag.
"Brother Carlos, have you brought us gifts?"
Aurora was pleasantly surprised, holding his arms with coquetry.
"Yeah."
Carlos gave her a spoiled look and took out a delicate hairpin from the gift bag, "Eternal Star, Limited
Edition, it's yours now."
"Thank you!"
Except sister, mom and dad also got presents. Everyone thought the last present was for Alicia.
However, they were all wrong. The last one was given to Rosie.
Suddenly, the atmosphere became embarrassing unspeakable. Aurora was the first one to ask,
"Brother Carlos, why not give present to Sister Alicia?"
Carlos glanced at the woman beside him and said faintly, "She? There is no present for her."
"Why? She is your wife. Brother Carlos, you've gone too far!"
Aurora returned the hairpin due to the great loyalty to her sister-in-law. "Since there is no present for
Sister Alicia, I don't want it either."
"And you? Are you going to do the same? "
Carlos asked his dad and mom calmly. Now he was used to it. The whole family was backing up Alicia.
Mrs. Sara gave him an angry stare, and then looked at her daughter-in-law. "Alicia, you can take my
present. Anyway, I am not so interested in these fashionable things at my age."
Alicia said no in a hurry, "Mom, it's fine. It doesn't matter. I'm also not interested..."
She tried hard to give a wry smile. God knew how embarrassed she was now because of Carlos's
action. In order to keep her elegance and politeness, she could only pretend to be okay.
But she really didn't care? The answer was "No". She cared much, as no one liked the feeling of being
ignored.
Fortunately, she didn't trust that he was a good guy last night, or she would be pretty disappointed
today.
After having breakfast, Carlos directly went upstairs. Alicia chatted with families for a little while, and it
was almost time to go to work, so she also went upstairs.
Every step was hard for her. If it weren't for her backpack, she wouldn't want to see that guy who made
her lose face.
Pushing the door, she walked forward like nobody was here. There was an unpleasant voice behind
her, "Didn't you see me? Passing by me like this? "
Of course, she saw him. But she just wanted him to taste the same feeling of being ignored.
"What's up?"
"I have nothing to say to you. I just cannot stand your bad manners."
"Then endure it, I don't care. As a saying goes, who keeps company with the wolf will learn to howl. I
learn this from you. You ignore me, so I also can do the same to you."
Hilarious! Carlos smiled sarcastically, "Alicia, what are you doing? You are angry with me because I
didn't give you a present, right?"
"Who cares?"
She went into her bedroom with a snort.
After waiting in the room for a few minutes, she heard the door shutting and knew that Carlos had left.
She went downstairs and waited for a few more minutes. When she heard the sound of the car starting,
she was relieved.
She was just about to go to school, but suddenly thought of something. She pretended to ask the butler
casually who was commanding the servants, "Warren Padilla, did the Young Master Carlos let you
change the bed?"
"Change the bed? No."
Warren shook his head with confusion and asked, "Did the Young Master Carlos ask you to tell me to
help him change his bed?"
"Oh, no no."
Alicia denied it and smiled, "I just ask, forget it. I got to work."
"OK, have a good day, Mrs. Alicia."
On the way to the company, Carlos stared at the passenger seat. There was a lilac gift box on it. No
one knew it and no one dared to believe it. In fact, it was a gift for Alicia.
Originally, he was going to give it to her in tonight's dinner, but he didn't expect that she had another
appointment. He felt a little shy to give her a gift in front of his family. In fact, he hadn't given a gift to
any woman except his mother and sister for a long time. Even he could not remember how long it was.
However, giving gifts didn't mean that he had any special feelings for her, but he thought that she was
not so annoying subconsciously. If he had to divorce and marry another annoying woman, it was better
to stay with a woman whom he didn't hate. ConTEent bel0ngs to Nôv(e)lD/rama(.)Org .
Since she gave up the opportunity to get this gift, was it necessary to ask her out again? This was a
question. Carlos thought for a few seconds, freed one hand, and opened the car window to throw the
gift out. His hand rose, but it slowly fell back. Maybe he should give her another chance. After all, she
didn't know that he was going to give her a gift at dinner.
