"You are going to run the restaurant properly too?" She raised her head and leaned on his chest so that she could look into his eyes.

"You have doubted it?" He raised a brow, and when he noticed the embarrassment there, he laughed. "This shop is going to earn too much money. Enough for you to buy tons of these kinds of dresses." There was something in his eyes that she could not point out, but it made her believe in his words.

"Now you shall rest for a while. I have work to do." She frowned when he stood up at once. In the past, they used to cuddle and spend time with each other. But thinking about the fierceness when she asked about the restaurant, she only nodded.

She watched as he picked up his clothes from the floor and wore them hurriedly. Somehow, she felt even his gait had changed from before.

Ethan smiled at her before leaving the room. When he came out, Mary was in the kitchen, splashing water over her red face. When she turned toward him, her eyes looked misty and dazed. She flinched, noticing him standing there.

"Did I scare you?" he asked, watching her eyes closely as he took a step forward. Mary adjusted her dress hurriedly. Her actions were slow and clumsy.

"Did we disturb your work, Mary?" he asked with a low chuckle, his eyes like a predator looking at its prey.

Mary's eyes widened with the question. A look of guilt and embarrassment washed over her. She adjusted her hair and lowered her head. For some reason, she felt dizzy looking into his eyes. He looked like he could eat her alive. Her body was heating profusely. How she imagined herself when she heard those moans. How she imagined him touching her instead.

She could not let him know that she was standing in front of the door with her hands under her underwear, playing with herself. Her breath was rugged, and her eyes were unfocused. She shook her head slowly, trying to get rid of that image. Yet, a gush of heat spread in her body when she noticed his firm chest from the unbuttoned shirt.

"I...I was not trying to listen. It was just a bit loud." She bit her lips when she realized what she was saying, her eyes getting bigger and filling with embarrassment, making him laugh.

"It is alright. As long as you do not mind us being loud." His arms brushed hers as he crossed her to reach for water. The simple touch was enough to burn her skin, and the heat spread further into her body.

Despite knowing that he already had a girlfriend and he had just had sex with her, she wanted to be there and do that. She must have lost her mind.

Mary did not know that Ethan could smell her arousal. He could feel the distinct smell of an orgasm coming from her body, and he had heard her moans from the door too. He did not need to be told how she got them. Her fingers were still rubbing her arms unconsciously.

"I do not. Of course, I do not. You are the boss; you can do anything you want. Haha!" She wiped the sweat off her face and fanned herself with her hands. Why was she slightly shivering? She was only glad that he did not notice the changes in her body.

"So we have everything ready?" he asked softly, standing in front of her. He was too close for her sanity. If she moved an inch, she would touch his chest. She could feel his breath on her skin. His eyes were so clear and close.

"Mary..."

"...yes? Yes! I have checked all the things she brought. If you come with me, we can plan everything together?" Her voice came forced as she tried to get her calm. He smiled softly and nodded without pointing to her labored breathing.

His eyes darkened with desire as he looked at her firm body. Her supple breasts. While Ana had large breasts a man would desire, hers were pert and small. But she had a good ass. One he could mould with his hands. When she walked in front of him, swaying her ass to his face, the desire only intensified. But his face stood there blank, not showing the wolf who wanted to eat her.

She leaned on the table to pick up something, her firm ass rising for him. How he wanted to slap her there and fuck her from behind. His fingers itched to check her wetness. He was sure she was wet by the look on her face before.

He walked closer, stood behind her, and intentionally brushed his hand on her ass before picking up a vase from the table.

She gasped softly and bit her lips again. But he was not even looking at her. All this was in her mind. She shook the feeling away.

"What do you think about the decoration?" he asked with a pause. His dark eyes looked at her with a gleam.

"These look good." She responded with some hesitation when he leaned closer to her. Too close that if she moved an inch, she could touch his cheeks with hers. "Have you changed your perfume? You smell different than last night." The words made her blush.

"The vases are good, but if you are targeting rich customers, the design should be... I do not know how to explain it. But these decorations would suit teenagers most." Ethan looked at the cute flowers and classy pink and white floral table covers and nodded his head. Indeed, the design was for youngsters.

"Hmm, if we are lucky tonight, we will have enough money to buy more things. This time, you will handle the shopping task too." She nodded, holding the vase in her hands tightly, her eyes gleaming with the joy of being trusted.

While Ana, who had just come out of the room to tell him how much she enjoyed it, paused. Her eyes narrowed at the new waitress they had hired.

"Ha! I have already warned her, but she did not take the hint."
