EX-husband Groveling to Me novel Chapter 205

Austin had just gone upstairs and Suny had already poured water.

She sipped a glass for herself and handed one to him.

Austin reached out to take it, drank it with his head down, and walked over to the sofa to loosen his tie while calling to her, "Suny, come here."

Suny wasn't going to go over: "I'm going upstairs to change."

She had dressed formally today in order to meet Fletcher, and the clothes she was wearing weren't actually very comfortable as Austin was holding her earlier.

Austin inclined his head to look at her and sat on the sofa without following her up.

After Suny went upstairs, he was left alone in the living room on the second floor. Austin sat on the sofa and saw the glass Suny had just left behind, his eyebrows twitched slightly and he took out his mobile phone to call Ivan.

Ivan was torn between calling Austin to politely remind him to come back and deal with the pile of documents to be signed, but he didn't expect Austin to call first.

When he saw the caller ID, Ivan was so moved that he almost burst into tears.

"Mr. Johnson?"

"Has the glass done?"

Ivan was full of expectation, but he didn't expect Austin to ask about the glass as soon as he opened his mouth.

He stalked, "I've got contacts working on it, but the earliest I can get the finished product is probably the day after tomorrow."

Austin frowned, "Try to be as quick as possible, there is no problem with how much it costs."

"...... Okay, I got it, Mr. Johnson, this afternoon ......"

However, without waiting for him to finish, Austin said, "Bye then."

Ivan looked at the "call ended" on his phone, and his whole body was on the verge of collapse.

Suny changed into a set of casual clothes and came downstairs, seeing Austin had just hung up the phone, she asked, "Ivan's call?"

"No."

Austin looked at her and lied in a serious manner.

Suny looked at him, "Aren't you sleepy?"

She said, raising her hand and pointing to the guest room, "The guest room should be familiar to you."

He had been there twice.

Austin leaned back, the buttons in front of his shirt collar were unbuttoned to the second one at some point, and as he did so, the shirt bracketed up, revealing the two collarbones on the side of his shoulders.

Suny swept a glance at it, her face hot, not daring to look again, "Want some fruit?"

"Yes."

Austin watched her walk into the kitchen, and soon Suny came out with a plate of cut apples and strawberries.

None of them were loved by Austin.

Suny put the fruit plate in front of him and saw him look over before she gave a smile, "Oh, I forgot, you don't like strawberries and apples."

When Suny smiled, the end of her eyes were slightly raised, and the smugness inside those charming eyes was like that of a cat that had stolen a fish.

Austin enjoyed seeing her smile like this, which was completely different from when she used to look at him with cold eyes.

Seeing that he didn't say anything, Suny thought he was angry and couldn't help but tsk, "Austin, see? You are petty!"

She raised her hand, pursed her index finger and thumb together and put them to his heel, gesturing for him to see.

Austin grabbed her hand and pulled her into his arms: "Yes, I am petty."

Seeing her about to leave, he simply encircled her whole body, "Who is that man?"

"A client."

He grunted, "He is quite handsome."

Suny forked a piece of strawberry and put it inside her mouth, eating it while responding, "I agre."

As soon as the words left her mouth, she suddenly heard Austin ask an unrelated question, "Are strawberries sweet?"

"Yes - "

His kiss came so quickly that Suny had just swallowed the strawberry.

The man's crisp, fresh breath lingered around her, and Suny felt as if her whole body was floating and sinking.

Austin's kiss was so dominant and fierce that she couldn't catch her breath, the breath between her nostrils was heavier than the next, and the hand around her waist was tighter than the next.

He wanted to rub her into his own flesh and bones.

Austin had never thought that he would love someone so much.

When they parted, Austin's eyes had already changed, he restrained himself and held back, looking down at Suny, who was kissed by himself and whose face was red, the sourness inside his heart were finally gone.

Austin hugged her tightly, his whole body leaned back comfortably, and suddenly gave a deep laugh, "Mmm, so sweet."

Suny was lying on his chest, feeling her eardrums filled with the sound of his laughter and his words "so sweet".

She lowered her brow and couldn't help but curl her lips as well.

The afternoon sunlight came in through one of the floor-to-ceiling windows and the whole living room was silent.

Suny looked up at Austin: "It's one o'clock, go to the guest room and have some sleep."

When she was far away, she didn't notice it, but now that she was closer, she saw that Austin's dark circles under his eyes.

Austin didn't lie, he really didn't sleep last night.

The matter of Suny agreeing to be with him was like a dream, he didn't know if he was inside a dream or in reality, afraid that he would fall asleep and open his eyes to find it was a dream.

Last night he lay in bed all night thinking about the way Suny had curled her lips and smiled before she got into the car.

He remembered the pretty little elves in the storybooks Ellen had read to him as a child, and if there were elves in this world, they must be like Suny.

Lost in thought, Suny had already gotten up from his arms.

Austin glanced up at her, "What about you?"

"I don’t go to the office this afternoon."

Austin raised his eyebrows: "You have quite a leisurely job."

Suny didn't actually intend to hide it from him, and she said, "Well, it's a part-time job anyway."

"Part-time?"

"Can’t I?"

"Sure."

It was just that she hadn’t heard much about such an awesome part-time job.

Suny looked at her phone, "It's one clock and a quarter."

Austin looked at her, lifted his leg and went into the guest room.

Suny watched his back until Austin entered the guest room, and only then did she raise her hand to cover her face.

Didn't Austin used to look like the whole world owed him tens of millions?

What was with all the lovey-dovey talk now?

"Suny."

The man's low voice came from the guest room. Suny collected her thoughts and lifted her leg to walk over, standing in the doorway and watching him sit on the edge of the bed, "What do you need, Mr. Johnson?"

"Can't sleep without pyjamas."

Suny, "Is a bathrobe okay?"

"No."

Austin said, raising his hand and beckoning to her, "Come here."

"What's wrong?"

Given his habit of pulling her into his arms at every turn, Suny didn't move.

"Come here, Suny."

He called again, some doting inside his eyes.

Suny couldn't help being looked at by him and lifted her leg to walk over, "Don't you hug me anymore."

Austin's eyebrows twitched slightly, "You're thinking too much."

With that, he leaned over and pulled aside a bedside table and pulled a box from it.

Suny recognized the box, and when she saw it, she couldn't help but be stunned.

Austin had already taken out the bracelet inside.

He plucked the sleeve from her hand and slipped the bracelet onto her left hand, "It's beautiful."

He said, pausing to look up at her, "I'm talking about your hand, Suny."

Suny looked down at the necklace on her left hand, "Thank you."

"Can you do something as a return of the favor?"

Suny looked up at him, "What?"

"I want to sleep with you in my arms."

Suny pooh-poohed, "Dream on, Austin!"
