36 Ways To Chase After My Wife’s Love - Chapter 135
“Dexter, what if he messes up my father’s company?” Kaili would definitely feel very guilty to her father if the company that her father built from scratch ended in vain because of her.
Kaili remembered very well how her father first started the company. Every success, no matter how small, would be shared with Kaili. She would always hear the stage-by-stage story of his father’s performance and they would celebrate together, even if it was just a simple dinner at a small restaurant.
His father was a warm-hearted person, so whatever pleasure he got would be conveyed to her and his mother.
“What are you afraid of? Your father started the company from zero. Peter’s threat is nothing more than a small pebble. It really doesn’t matter. In the past, he even managed to create the company from zero to be well-known and as big as it is now with only his ability. Do you think a small shock could bring that down? The important thing is now that we are fine so as not to add to the burden on his mind.”
Dexter knew very well that his wife would feel very guilty if because of her, the company that Richard Goh started from scratch collapsed. He had thought of a plan to keep the company going. All of this just because of his wife alone. Not because he wanted to be filial or be the son-in-law of choice for a Richard.
Kaili gasped, what Dexter said was true, but… “Uhhh… Where do you know that my father started it himself from zero? Are you secretly watching my father?” Kaili spoke while teasing him. For her, it was an extraordinary thing. As far as she knew, Dexter did not like her father for always rejecting and insulting his profession. That was why until now Kaili had not stated the good intentions of his father who would be willing to help Dexter if he needed help in the newly managed company.
“Who doesn’t know who Richard Goh is.”
The words were so cold, they pierced Kaili’s bones. She also realized the reason that she didn’t say much anymore.
“Hmm … I know. Dexter, are we gonna stay in the car? Start the car!”
Dexter smiled. He also felt funny and just realized that they were still hugging in the narrow room.
“Okay.” Dexter adjusted his seat but put on his wife’s seatbelt first.
On the way, the atmosphere became very quiet. None of them spoke. Dexter focused on his thoughts on getting back at Peter, while Kaili was struggling with worry in her heart.
She looked at Dexter who was focused on driving. Actually, a lot of questions pop up in her mind seeing this man, but she was afraid to say it. She felt there were many things she didn’t even know about her husband, such as his attitude, Kaili still didn’t understand it.
“Dexter…” After a long silence, she opened her voice.
“Hmm…” Dexter replied, his eyes softly fixed on Kaili.
“Is Chiro your family name?”
As soon as that short question reached Dexter’s ears, he suddenly put the brakes on.
Ccciiiiiiittttttt …
His whole body was shaking.
“Ah…”
Kaili screamed softly, “What’s wrong?” She was a little scared.
“Ah, the stray cat passed by. So I put the brakes suddenly.” Dexter faltered to say it.
“Cat? In the middle of a highway? Is it trying to run from his master?” Kaili looked outside but no one was found there. “Is it scared to run fast? I do not see it.”
Dexter swallowed his saliva after taking a deep breath. He returned to running the car. “Maybe it ran away.”
He just hoped that Kaili forgot her question earlier, otherwise … how would he answer it? For God’s sake, Dexter didn’t want to make more lies to his wife.
However … What was avoided actually happened, Kaili asked that question again, “You haven’t answered me yet, is Chiro your family surname?”
“Ugh … What’s wrong?” Dexter was very scared, even his feet stepping on the gas pedal were trembling, to be precise, his whole body was trembling!
“I’ve heard about the Chiro family from the neighboring country, country A.” Kaili looked at him deeply. That gaze made Dexter shudder in horror, “And master Chiro, a little like you.”
Boom! Dexter seemed ready to explode.
Dexter held his breath for a while, after he could control his feelings, then he said, “Do you know him?”
“No. I only found out from the news. But I know his son!”
Obviously, Dexter was very confused. How could Kaili know the son of James Chiro, which means him or Kenzie Chiro?
“You … You know the son? How can?”
Kaili chuckled, “Not in person, but I admire him. I once went to a painting exhibition. One of the paintings touched my heart. I saw the name of the painter, it was written ‘Chiro’s eldest son’. I looked for him, but all I got was the name of the great master Chiro. Until now, I don’t even know his name and his face, but I managed to get a painting that he made.”
Hearing that, Dexter’s heart calmed. At least, what his wife knew was still a little. He had to finish everything before his wife knew more and more because it would affect their relationship.
“You should never find out about other men again.” Dexter said firmly but trembled.
“No, I won’t!” She already had Dexter in her life, that’s enough. Of course, she wouldn’t be interested in finding out about other men. In the past, when she found out about Chiro’s eldest son, it was all because of the awe at first glance at the painting.
“I know it. I know that you won’t take your eyes off me.” Dexter laughed happily now, even though his heart felt a little guilty for always lying to his beloved wife.
“You’re too confident!” Kaili sneered at him while pinching Dexter’s thin cheek lightly and the man who was driving chuckled.
“Do I need to take the emergency contraceptive pill?” She was still not ready to have children.
Dexter saw it, he could feel that Kaili was really serious about her intention to delay having children. He was a little disappointed, but he also could not be selfish. He had to see from his wife’s side. She had just started her dream job, having children would affect her career.
Reluctantly, Dexter could only agree. “Taking the emergency contraceptive pillcan hurt you. Can you just let it go? The last time we did it and until now you’re not pregnant, right?”
“But we won’t always be lucky. I am not ready to have children soon.” Kaili actually felt guilty but she really still wanted to focus on pursuing her career.
Dexter held her hands, “I’m sorry, next time I’ll put on contraceptive.”
This man was so gentle, even in this case he was the one who apologized, making Kaili felt very guilty.
“Dexter … Let me work for a year, okay? After one year, I promised to be ready to have children.”
Dexter smiled gently at her, “We are young, there’s no need to rush. Look, won’t we look like a newly married couple? It is very nice.”
Kaili happily threw herself into his embrace, her naturally red lips kissing her husband’s cheek, “Dexter, thank you!”
Her husband could understand her. That was the happiest thing!
After arriving home, they cleaned themselves by taking a bath together. Dexter didn’t do naughty things. He just really took a shower but occasionally, he flirted with his shy wife. For him, it was like relaxation, but he really had no intention of pouncing on her at that time.
“Come here, why are you so far? This bathroom is not big. It won’t be enough if we are far apart from each other.” Dexter took her hand.
Kaili brushed aside his hands, ”You take a shower first, I’ll go out!”
If they bathe together and both were not wearing any clothes, Kaili was not sure Dexter would be ‘tame’ and not ‘eat her’. Kaili knew what kind of man Dexter was.
Dexter giggled at the behavior of his wife. She was really a shy woman. Even since earlier, she did not dare to look at him.
“Is there something on the wall? Why do you always look over there?”
Kaili’s cheeks flushed. That’s why she didn’t dare look at him. When Kaili was ready to answer, Dexter said, “I know, you must be seeing my reflection on the wall, right?”
Hearing Dexter’s joke, Kaili wanted to strangle him! This man was too confident!
“You are so arrogant! Do you think your image is very attractive?” Kaili couldn’t help but sneer at her arrogant husband.
“Of course not, because what’s more interesting is seeing me in person.” After saying that, Dexter immediately pulled Kaili’s face to face him. But even so, the green-eyed woman lowered her gaze instead. Dexter was not happy! He also extended his arms and turned on the head shower.
The cold water immediately drenched both of them. Kaili was surprised and wanted to protest, but Dexter chuckled.
