Supreme Mars novel Chapter 176

With dim light, there was no sound except Emilia’s even breathing in this room.

Lydia looked at Leo worriedly and Leo also realized the severity of this matter.

As Lydia’s sister, Marie fell in love with her brother-in-law. How should they get along with each other?

“She is my sister so I don’t want her to get hurt.” Lydia placidly gazed at Leo and said, “Even though you are my husband.”

“I see,” Leo said with a wry smile, “ I will find time to talk with her.”

“Thanks.” Lydia felt relieved and even a bit guilty.

By living together, she found herself wrong that she had never expected she would rely on this man.

Leo was always the first one to take responsibility no matter in or outside home. Habit was terrible that it would silently change a person.

Indeed. Lydia found that she was not as independent as she had been five years ago.

“It’s all right. Let’s go to bed.” Leo smiled casually. He knew if Lydia went to talk with Marie, their relationship would get in trouble. So it was up to him.

“I’m going to take a shower,” said Lydia suddenly. Leo paused, ‘Why she takes a shower again? She just did so.’

After about forty minutes, Lydia came out of the bathroom.

Leo subconsciously looked up with a glance, yet he couldn’t take his eyes off her.

Lydia always dressed neatly when she came out, but today, she was only swathed in a white towel.

Water constantly dripping from Lydia’s wet hair. After the shower, her skin looked so delicate and fair with water vapor permeating the air.

Leo’s breathing accelerated suddenly, saying, “Lydia, what…are you doing?”

“Don’t you like that?” Lydia came to lay down next to Leo. Despite short breathing and flaming cheeks as Leo, she still had a cold look on her face.

“Like what?” said Leo. A waft of fragrant air stimulated his senses.

Lydia glanced at him and said calmly, “The thing that you did to me five years ago.”

After hearing that, Leo gasped and looked at Lydia blankly. He even forgot to speak at this moment.

“In the past half month, I have thought a lot,” Lydia added, “Since I have accepted you as my husband and Emilia’s father, our relationship is more than legal. So I’m ready to have sex with you.”

These words greatly impressed Leo. But he shook his head seriously, “Thank you, Lydia, but this is not what I want.”

“I said I would make you truly fall in love with me, but now you are not that into me.”

Lydia was touched and fell silent, lightly biting her lips.

Leo added, “However, we can do other things.” After saying that, he suddenly turned over and leaned over to Lydia.

“What, what do you want to do?” What Leo had said extinguished Lydia’s impulse. And she was frightened by his movement.

Leo didn’t say anything. He just looked down at Lydia, slowly bending over.

Soon, Lydia’s muffled cry came from the dark room.

Leo crouched in front of Lydia, tightly pinching her ankles with his hands.

He massaged respective parts of Lydia’s feet to help with her blood circulation, making her feel relaxed and comfortable.

“That’s all for today.” Leo stopped and panted.

Feeling so good, Lydia raised her eyebrow and said in exasperation, “Go on, you only lasted 20 minutes. Shame on you.”

With the corner of his eye twitching, Leo patiently explained, “If you have this massage too often, it won’t work well anymore.”

Lydia compromised but reluctantly asked, “What about do that once a month?”

“No problem.” Leo nodded with a smile.

Soon, Lydia fell asleep. Leo tucked her in and got to sleep tiredly.

Marie lay alone on the bed downstairs. Lydia’s cry haunted her, making her wistful.

That she fell in love with Leo not only troubled Leo and Lydia but also Marie herself.

“Maybe, I shouldn’t ruin my sister’s happiness…” Looking at the moon far away, Marie intended to laugh, but she failed.

The next day morning, Leo got up a little bit late given that it was the weekend and that last night he had been overworked after giving Lydia a massage.

He found he was the last to get up as he came downstairs.

Casually lying prone on the sofa, Marie fought with Emilia over snacks. And Lydia sat aside, holding a cup of latte and reading a financial newspaper, which she read every day.

“Leo!” When Marie saw Leo coming downstairs, she rushed to greet him and curiously asked, “Why do you get up so late? Was Lydia too crazy last night to make you exhausted.”

Both Leo and Lydia were stunned by what Marie had said.

Especially Lydia, she put the newspaper down and said angrily, “Marie, you are talking nonsense!”

“I’m not. I did hear it last night.” Marie wasn’t afraid and even pretentiously imitated, “‘Ah, harder please…’, you know who said that.”

“well…” Lydia immediately became guilty and looked away.

Leo coughed, “Marie, you’ve got it wrong.”

“Don’t explain, don’t make any excuse.” Marie didn’t give Leo a chance to explain and then she said to Emilia, “Emilia, you will have a little brother or sister.”

“Really?” Hearing this, Emilia immediately cheered up and clapped, “Yeah, I want a little brother!”

“Marie!” Lydia walked towards Marie angrily and bashfully.

Marie giggled and swiftly ran upstairs, keeping Lydia from catching up with her.

Lydia gave up. She took her bag and got ready to go out.

Marie peeped at Lydia upstairs, “Lydia, where are you going?”

“I’m going to the company,” said Lydia without any expression.

“Come on, today is the weekend. You don’t have to work.” Glaring at Lydia in amazement, Marie reluctantly said, “We haven’t eaten and went shopping together for a long time. Why don’t you accompany me?”

Lydia was in a daze silently. She had been lonely for the past five years. To make herself feel fulfilled, she always stayed busy, keeping all her grievances, anger and unwillingness inside.

However, she couldn’t reject her sister’s request.

“Okay, let me change my clothes.” Then Lydia went upstairs.

Marie tipped Leo a wink to go out with them while Lydia was changing clothes.

Leo declined with a wave of his hand, “You two go. I will look after Emilia at home.”

Marie suddenly looked serious and said, “I asked Lydia to go shopping with me. Come with us.”

“I won’t go shopping with you girls.” Leo scooped Emilia up and pinched her little face. In his view, taking care of the child is more fun than shopping.

“Since you are so unromantic, how did you pursue Lydia?” Marie looked disappointed with Leo and mockingly said, “I’m thinking for you!”

“I will leave with Emilia then, creating chances for your dating…” Marie had hardly finished her speech when crisp sounds of high heels came from upstairs.

Leo looked back and he couldn’t move his eyes any more.
