A Miracle Fault novel Chapter 66

Stefan returned to Sweedal Residence and saw Emmeline waiting for him to return home.

She looked so small. She reclined on the couch and watched the TV intently.

Seeing Emmeline, Stefan, who was gloomy because of Frank's plan to kill him, immediately cheered up.

Rolling the wheelchair to her side, he looked at her. "Mrs. Stefan, you were waiting for me, eh?"

Emmeline was on summer vacation. She stayed home every day and did not interact with Antonio.

So Stefan was overjoyed because he could see her when he came home from work every day.

As long as he thought of Emmeline waiting for him to come home every day, he felt as if he could never get tired.

After finishing work every day, the only thought in his mind was to hurry home and be with Emmeline.

Emmeline was watching the TV attentively when she heard the sound of a wheelchair rolling and approaching her.

She looked back and saw Stefan, who had just returned, sitting in a wheelchair. A pair of eyes stared at her so intently and so tenderly.

Being looked at by him, Emmeline blushed all of a sudden.

She was too embarrassed to look at Stefan's expression. She only looked down and said quietly, "Yeah, Paul said you'll be back early today, so I want to wait for you and have dinner together."

Since it was summer vacation, Emmeline could have talked to Stefan and went out to play with Lena and the others.

Having lived with Stefan, Emmeline did not know what was going on with herself.

Not only did she not want to go out, but she also only read books on healing a broken leg and waited for him to come back as she stayed home every day.

Even this morning, she rejected Lena's invitation to go out before she even had a chance to hear the location clearly when Lena called.

Although she did not know what Stefan thought, she subconsciously felt that Stefan would be in a bad mood if he did not see her when he came home from work.

"What a good girl. I'm pleased to see you after work." Stefan looked at how shy Emmeline was, and his smile deepened.

Without any hesitation, he gently stroked Emmeline's small face.

Then his hand moved from her cheeks to her small chin. When he held it, he craned his neck to get closer.

Emmeline was already very embarrassed when Stefan looked at her and touched her.

Her cheeks were flushed like a red apple.

She also knew that their overly intimate behaviour made the servants who passed by the hall from time to time too shy to come out.

They were afraid of dampening Master Stefan's enthusiasm. The consequences were not something they could handle.

So now that she saw Stefan becoming bolder and wanting to kiss her in the hall, Emmeline suddenly panicked.

Blushing, she said subconsciously when Stefan was less than twenty centimeters away from her, "Stefan, you...what are you going to do?"

Although this was his home, they were still in public.

How could he touch her and get close to her whenever he wanted to? Would he not feel embarrassed?

Stefan was so handsome that both men and God were jealous. When he was not angry, he was a modest and scrupulous gentleman.

How come he was so comfortable and cheeky every time he felt her up?

Stefan did not care at all about Emmeline's faked confusion. He answered frankly, "To kiss you, of course."

The shyer Emmeline became, the more Stefan wanted to kiss her.

He looked at her lips, which were red and exuded a shiny luster.

They were like delicate rose petals blown apart after a spring rain. He could not help but want to swallow them in one bite.

But as soon as Stefan spoke, Emmeline's blush extended to her neck.

Particularly embarrassed, she muttered, "Why are you fooling around? Aren't you afraid that it'll be awkward if someone sees us?"

"I'm fooling around?" He was surprised that Emmeline had the courage to say that he was fooling around, which made Stefan frown.

The hand that originally held Emmeline's chin and moved down all of a sudden. He pulled Emmeline's arm and tugged hard.

Emmeline, who argued with him and felt embarrassed just now, suddenly sat firmly on his lap once again.

"Stefan, you..." He did this again — he made her sit on his lap, not worried about harming his legs.

This immediately made Emmeline nervous. Placing her hands on his broad shoulders, she wanted to get up.

But after thinking about her for a day, how could Stefan, who finally held her in his arms, let her go?

So he moved quickly and once again pressed Emmeline down. His slender and powerful arms hugged Emmeline waist tightly.

Then in a domineering manner, he stared at her and said, "How am I fooling around? I was just kissing my own wife. It won't be awkward even if others saw."

Stefan was very close to Emmeline when he spoke.

His voice was low and rich, making Emmeline very moved. She blushed, and her face felt hot that she wished there was a hole.

She could not help but mutter quietly, "I'm not your wife, Ana..."

Emmeline could not help but want to correct him when Stefan kept calling her his wife.

But before the next words spilled from her lips, she remembered that he was furious when he heard these words in the past. When she thought of the way he gritted his teeth and promised to divorce Anayah and marry her, Emmeline abruptly stopped her next words.

For fear that Stefan would get angry again, she peeped at him with her big sparkly eyes.

"What? You wanted to say something again, right?" He looked at Emmeline, who was hesitant.

Stefan could not help but laugh.

He lowered his head and pressed his forehead against hers. He kissed her cheeks while teasing her ear. His lips brushed against hers lightly, like butterfly wings. They were as intimate as a couple could be.

And so Emmeline's cheeks became flushed, and her body felt a little weak.

Stefan smiled again. In a voice as soft as silk, he said, "I asked Nicolas to come to my office today."

In front of Emmeline, Stefan should be addressing Nicolas as father-in-law.

But once he thought of Nicolas' poor behaviour that made Emmeline suffer grievously because of Anayah from beginning to end, Stefan could not address him as father-in-law anymore.

He had to suppress his anger to not make the entire Campbell family disappear from X City because of all the things that Anayah had done. He already gave Nicolas as much respect as he could.

If he had not given birth to Emmeline and let him have such a cute little thing, there was no way the Campbell family would still be able to reside safely in this city.

"What? What are you looking for my dad for? Stefan, you..." She heard Stefan say that he looked for her father.
