Chapter 173 I Had Never Acted Like This
Terence was much taller than Esther, so the bag was out of Esther’s reach. The shopping bag was turned over and the things inside dropped.
With a bang, essential oil and sexy nightwear fell to the floor at the same time.
Esther was stunned. She looked at those things on the ground, and her face instantly blushed.
Terence was also stunned. He did not expect that Esther was so open. However, after the shock, Terence became angry and stared at Esther.
“Did he buy these for you?” Terence gritted his teeth and asked.
Esther didn’t understand what Terence was saying at all. At this time, Esther only felt shameful. After a while, Esther came to herself and hurriedly rushed to pick up the items on the ground.
“I’m asking you a question!” Terence picked Esther up from the ground and looked down at her.
“What?” Esther lowered her head. At this time, she was embarrassed and only wanted to find a hole to hide in.
“Did he buy these for you?”
“Who?”
“Kilborn.” Terence tightened his fingers around Esther’s arm. “Esther, don’t play dumb with me. Do you think I don’t know that you stayed with him before?”
Esther was surprised and thought, ‘What did he say? He knew that I stayed with Kilborn?’
Esther stayed with Kilborn for less than 40 minutes. She didn’t understand why Terence knew this.
“What? You don’t know how to explain?”
“I…” Esther didn’t know what to say. She did not expect Terence to know that she was with Kilborn and did not know how to explain it. Esther thought, ‘If I tell him that Kilborn saved me and sent me off, he probably would not believe.’
Whether Terence believed it or not, Esther decided to explain it.
“I can explain that I accidentally fell into the lake when I was walking in the square at noon. Kilborn saved me and sent me to the entrance of the mall. Kilborn said that he was just passing by. Then I went to buy the clothes myself, and it had nothing to do with him.” Esther raised her eyes and looked at Terence. “What I said is true. If you don’t believe me, you can call Kilborn and ask.”
“I called him when you were in his car.”
Esther was embarrassed. She thought, ‘So it was Terence who called.Property © of NôvelDrama.Org.
What did Kilborn say at that time? He said that he was shopping with his friend and when he came back depended on his friend. Then Kilborn hung up the phone.
Kilborn deliberately tricked me.’
“I don’t know why he said that, but I have nothing to do with him. He sent me to the entrance of the mall and left. I went to the mall alone,” Esther explained.
“You went to the mall alone?” Terence bent down to pick up the sexy nightwear and essential oil and held them high in front of Esther. “You went to buy these things by yourself? Tell me, what do you want to do? Who do you want to wear it for? Who do you want to charm? Don’t tell me you bought them for me.”
Terence sneered, “Esther, you usually avoid me. I am willing to sleep in the study room for you.”
“Give them back to me.” Esther snatched the nightwear and her face blushed again. “I bought them for fun.”
Now Esther was speechless and felt wronged. She suddenly felt that Serena was the most unreliable woman in the world. Last time, Serena asked Reid to disguise as Esther’s husband to attend Anne’s birthday party, which made a fool of Esther. Today, Serena suggested Esther seduce Terence, causing Esther to lose face.
Esther wanted to cut Serena off.
“Just for fun? Buy those things for fun?” Terence raised the essential oil in front of Esther again. He still gritted his teeth and sneered, “Esther, it is designed for men. Who are you planning to seduce?”
Esther was speechless again, and her silence irritated Terence. Terence retracted his hand to get closer to Esther and angrily said, “You’d better give me a reasonable explanation, otherwise…”
Terence pinched Esther’s hand so hard that she almost cried. She had no choice but to confess. “If I say I plan to seduce you, would you think that I’m crazy? Would you believe me?”
Terence sneered, showing his distrust. “If you want me to believe you, change into your new nightwear and have a try. And this.” He grabbed Esther’s hand and handed the essential oil to Esther.
Terence looked so serious and was not joking, which made Esther angry. She glared at Terence fiercely.
“What’s wrong? You said that these things were all prepared for me. I’ll give you a chance to perform now,” Terence said coldly and crossed his arms in front of his chest.
After a moment of hesitation, Esther gritted her teeth and walked quickly towards the bathroom.
Esther entered the bathroom in anger. After turning on the tap, Esther did not stand under the water but in front of the mirror and looked at her red face.
Esther thought, ‘Since Terence forced me to do that, why don’t I do so? Anyway, I’m originally planning to seduce him and get pregnant as soon as possible.’
If Esther missed these days when she was fertile, she would have to wait for the next month. Esther decided to carry out her plan.
After thinking it through, Esther took a shower, applied the essential oil, and then picked up the nightwear that made her feel ashamed for the whole day.
The silk nightwear was thin and transparent. Esther looked naked. She stared at herself in the mirror and blushed.
Esther gritted her teeth, opened the bathroom door, and said to Terence, “Can you give me a glass of red wine?”
Esther was sober and had no courage to come out.
Terence stood up, walked to the bar counter, poured a glass of red wine, and handed it to Esther. Terence watched her drink it all in one gulp and then handed the glass back to him, saying, “Please wait for me for twenty minutes.”
After that, Esther closed the bathroom door again.
