Massage

Deanna and Sean approached Austin and Clara. Deanna introduced Sean, "Husband, this is Austin's current girlfriend, Clara."

"Hello Mr Johnson, I'm Clara." Clara greeted Sean nervously.

Sean just nodded without speaking.

"Austin, I know that my marriage to your father may be hard to accept for a while. And I know you can't call me Mom now." Deanna smiled and continued, "But I can understand your mood. Just as I married your father, I also hope that you can marry the person who is most suitable for you. Among those who came to today's wedding, there must be someone more suitable for you. Your father and I will help you choose someone good." said Deanna.

"You–" Austin almost let out his temper, but he couldn't scold Deanna in front of Sean's piercing gaze. Austin could only clench his fists in anger. Glaring at Deanna, he hugged Clara and turned to leave.

Clara looked back and coincidentally met Deanna's gaze. Deanna looked at him and smiled proudly on purpose. Clara became even more worried. She felt that with Deanna's words, it would be even more challenging to be with Austin.

Deanna had no intention of preventing them from being together. She wanted to see if the two would love each other like in their previous life after she changed direction.

Felicia, her father, and her grandfather were also there. Deanna greeted them while Sean went to talk to some of his friends.

Sean's friend teased the man and said, "It's too sudden for you to get married. How could I not know that your type is a young woman, despite having known you for so many years?"

"Yeah, I haven't seen anyone you really like in all these years. We are all confused about your marriage."

"You have someone you want to marry but even keep it a secret from us. Is it fun to hide it?"

"If I had known earlier, then I would have told you guys earlier too. But I decided to get married was a sudden decision. I also just found out a few days earlier than you guys." said Sean.

"Really? It really doesn't suit your character. What's the reason?"

Sean shook his head and asked them not to ask.

"But the child is indeed very beautiful."

"True. Her appearance is very good in every aspect, but you have seen many beautiful people before. It seems she has something special, so that it is able to attract your attention."

"By the way, you have a partner now. Enjoy your wedding night tonight."

Sean's friends raised their glasses of wine to toast, but Sean sighed helplessly.

Many of the guests there thought that if they knew that Sean liked a girl so young and beautiful, they would have done the trick sooner. It is too late to know now because they have not sent anyone who could be Sean's partner. Those who had tried to send a beautiful woman to Sean were even more confused. Did Sean suddenly change his preferences?

Although Clara barely knew anyone at the wedding, she knew these people were rich. They had to be famous in high society to be invited to group leader Johnson's wedding. Thinking back, she had a worse life than ordinary people before she was ten years old. Now, her being able to stand out among the top-class people was a significant change for her.

"When we get engaged, can we have an engagement party here?" Clara asked in a whisper.

"We can do whatever you want." said Austin, looking at Clara.

"Then let us do it here, shall we?" Clara wanted to become a member of the Johnson family as soon as possible. Even if it were just an engagement and not a wedding, she would feel more confident if she could have an engagement party in the main house.

"Okay." Austin immediately agreed.

After the wedding, Deanna and Sean rest in their room.

Deanna entered the bathroom in a bathrobe and sat on the bed. She looked at Sean, leaning on the head of the bed with his eyes closed and said, "You have been very busy lately. Is your headache getting worse?"

One day ago, Sean finally told Deanna he had a headache.

"I'm used to the pain." Sean has been very busy lately. During this period, he could not relax even after returning home.

"Can't you rest well before going back to work?" Deanna looked at him and asked.

"I'll be fine after going through this." Sean opened his eyes and saw Deanna's white skin was almost transparent. Her face became brighter after a hot bath, looking like freshly washed peaches. It was fresh, delicious, moist, and had an attractive sweet aroma.

'What was I thinking!' thought Sean.

"Let me massage you to relax you." Deanna has recently spent most of her time researching and learning about incense therapy in her mother's family books. While it is clear that Sean's illness has accumulated over the years and cannot be cured quickly, she also hopes to help relieve Sean's headache through her studies.

"No need." Sean refused.

"You are tired after a busy day, so go to sleep."

"I am not tired. I am not worried about marriage at all. It's still early, so if I go to bed now, I won't be able to sleep." Deanna took out essential oils from the bedside table she had prepared beforehand and prepared to massage Sean.

"Lie down, it's going to feel better soon." Deanna insisted.

Sean looked at Deanna helplessly, then turned to lie down according to her instructions.

Deanna pulled Sean's cloak up to his waist. Although she had no talent for fragrances in her previous life, now she has learned all the basics to become a perfumer and aromatherapist and understands the old books. For example, understanding all the acupuncture points on the human body is one of the most basic lessons an aromatherapist should learn.

Deanna poured oil into her palms and rubbed them until they were warm. She then pressed acupoints on Sean's neck, shoulders, and back with the proper force to clear the blood circulation.

Sean rarely gets massages because he doesn't like it when other people touch him with their hands. However, with Deanna's hand, it could be said that her technique was extraordinary. He felt very comfortable, and the tension in his body from enduring the headache gradually relaxed. Once his body relaxed, his head felt less sore.

Deanna massaged Sean for half an hour before she stopped. She did it quite carefully. She used a warm towel to wipe the oil off Sean's neck and back. Sweating a little, Deanna went to take a shower while Sean fell asleep.

After a shower, Deanna went back to bed, lay beside Sean and fell asleep.

Sean woke up the next day to find Deanna sleeping beside him, clutching his arm tightly. Seeing Deanna's soft sleeping face, Sean felt that Deanna was like a child when she fell asleep. Nineteen years was like a child to the man. Sean would only treat her as a good girl for the next few years.

Austin and Clara are getting engaged. However, that night, Austin sadly sat at the bar of a nightclub. He waited for his friends to come over to drink with him, with Clara sitting beside him and trying to cheer him up.

"Since your father didn't approve of our engagement being held in the main house, we can have it at the hotel. In fact, the hotel is also very good. So don't be angry." Clara tried to persuade the man.

"I'm angry about his attitude towards me! Since childhood, he never took care of me. Even though he didn't love my mother, I was still his son. But he never did his duty as a father." Austin was furious at the thought of Sean's attitude towards him.

"It was all my fault. I shouldn't have asked you to have an engagement party in the main house. Your father disapproved of our engagement in the first place. He wasn't preventing us from getting engaged, he was just preventing us from having a banquet in the main house. Your relationship with your father is worsening because of our relationship. I will try my best to get your father's approval. So that when we get married, we can get him to agree to hold our wedding in the main house. So for my sake, don't be mad at your father anymore, okay?"

"Sometimes I really don't want you to be so nice. The better you are, the weaker you are." Austin said while holding Clara's hand.

"But I'm sure the kindness will be rewarded." said Clara, smiling.

Once Austin's friends arrived, they accompanied him to drink and chat. Then they discussed how to party and play after Austin and Clara's engagement party was over.

The door suddenly opened, and the service personnel at the door failed to stop the group of people from entering. This service person did not dare to stop but still had to pretend.

"Young Master Johnson, congratulations!"

Austin's face darkened when he heard the voice.
