Burning Passion - Chapter 327

CHAPTER 327: DESIRED FOR EACH OTHER

* * *

After a mother and daughter heart-to-heart talk…

Dona and Nina went back to their suite; taking a shower, and preparing to go back to the hospital.

Nina was in the shower when Mely phoned Dona. She heard the last part of the conversation. Curiously, she asked her mother.

“What’s going on, Mama?”

Delighted by the good news, Dona happily shared that Mely was finally discharged from the hospital.

“Harry already found a beach house to rent. We can also move later!”

“Oh. Okay, Mama.” It was good news. However, it means she and Harry should limit being intimate with each other.

“We better pack our things now, and let’s take them later tonight to move out.”

“Okay, Mama.”

That late afternoon, Nina and Dona helped to organize some important stuff in the beach house. Mely was going to stay before she could fly back to China.

The mother and daughter help to put covers and sheets on the bed. The house was pretty neat and cool. With the sliding doors, it gives a full view of the kitchen and living room.

They will also stay here for the remaining days before they’re going back to New Jersey; Nina and Mely look around which places need attention.

Dona requests more carpets upstairs. The balcony could be a great place for tea and barbecues.

Later, Mely and Harry arrived. Nina rushed to the door and welcomed her soon mother-in-law.

“Welcome, Mama Mely! I’m so happy now they discharge you from the hospital!”

“Yes, at last! I am also glad, Nina. I’m so bored staying in that room!”

Mely groans upon remembering how she has to pretend sick in this passing week just as Steven pitied his mother. She’s sorry for lying to her sons. But it was only the solution she came up with for Steven to stay cool. Tilted her head to forget her crime, she pursed a cheerful smile not to make her company notice her sadness.

“Ah, finally I see the beach! It was so beautiful! I can’t wait to have sunbathing tomorrow.” She walks toward the porch; she breathes in the fresh air coming from the ocean.

“Is your doctor advising to avoid doing things, Mama Mely?” It worried Nina, might the woman have another breakdown the time she and her mother Dona go back to New Jersey.

Dona and Mely look at each other before the latter replies. Dona knew her real condition, but Nina and Harry should not know about it yet. “Yes. My doctor will come over every day to do a check on me, so nothing you should worry about.”

“That was a relief, Mama! I’m glad the doctor will monitor your condition.”

Mely could see the sincerity displayed on Nina’s face. She already knew how wonderful this girl she dreamed to be, her very own daughter.

“I will be fine, don’t worry.” She assures Nina. Remembering how it’s getting late evening, she wanted to have a nice meal. “Why don’t we go to a restaurant to let’s celebrate my discharge?”

Dona concurred, “That was a wonderful plan! Besides, we had another thing to celebrate!”

Nina blushed when her mother glanced at her. She was sound teasing, but Mely seemed to know already.

“You already know, Mama Mely?”

The woman nodded. She extended her arm to reach Nina’s hand and smiled warmly. “I do. Harry told me.”

It relieved Nina that she and Harry didn’t need to hide their relationship with their mothers. Instead, they received their support.

That evening, Harry brought them to the Steakhouse where he and Nina had their first date.

Tonight, it was the best place to celebrate their love along with their mothers.

Since Mely took pills, she only ordered a bottle of Sparkling Wine. It has no alcohol, so it was safe to drink the entire bottle; she could enjoy its sweetness.

Harry ordered White Wine for himself, which Dona agreed with Nina to have a Rosé wine tonight.

Nina now loved to try every wine she could come across since she will inherit their family business in the future.

And if her father soon accepts after she and Harry had a secret marriage; she will also ask her father’s support to start a Wine House in Las Vegas, where she and Harry planned to settle after they got married.

She came up with this business plan last night. She could not sleep yet and only thought of Harry until it hit on her mind to help Harry build their family.

Now the wine served, Harry poured her glass with Rosé wine—a raspberry, citrus, and strawberry mixture. She watched the pink liquor, swirling her glass to appreciate its beauty.

She chose a Wine Bar as something that will relate to her and Harry’s love story.

A glamorous wine restaurant a couple could have a great time having a date, especially during their anniversaries and special moments.

Honestly, she could not wait to share her dream with Harry. She wishes it was now her birthday to be an official Mrs. Shang. Her dreams since she’s a kid would come true soon.

Nina pursed a lovely smile across her face, and her companion noticed it. Dona was happy seeing how the sparks in her daughter’s eyes had finally come back. She also smiles genuinely now. And this is because of Harry.

Frequently glancing at the beautiful girl next to him who captivates many eyes tonight, Harry Harry leaned over and whispered. Nina blushed after hearing what Harry whispered to her. It embarrassed her when their parents were here to witness their intimate moments.

Anyway, the two mothers pretend they saw nothing. They keep talking about the food, complementing it and ignoring Harry and Nina. Well, they know how Nina is a shy girl.

“Don’t worry. Our mothers acted like we’re invisible,” he joked.

Nina giggled. And her ears tickle from Harry’s warm breath.

They haven’t kissed even once today, so then, she’s craving for it.

Harry felt the same way. Nina is wearing red lipstick tonight and her lips, enticing him to eat them. However, he needs to control himself, not doing such actions in front of their mothers.

“Stop staring at me like you want to eat me,” Nina whispered back at Harry. The way the guy looking at her, his eyes are burning with desire.

Harry was drinking white wine when Nina whispered in his ear. He chokes on the liquor and coughs to clear his throat.

This girl isn’t being careful! He was only trying hard to control his craving to kiss Nina in front of their mothers.

“You are right. I could not wait to eat you tonight.”

Nina’s face was like a bitten red. She prayed for her mother and soon mother-in-law, not hearing a thing. She wanted to smack Harry on the neck and cover his mouth.

It embarrassed her, of course. She draws the glass close to her mouth; she gulps the Rosé wine in one go. However, drinking wine makes her recall how hot Harry’s kisses and how it flared her body with his touch.

Not only that, their hands intertwined under the table. She bites her lower lip to scold herself, not reacting to the heat Harry is conveying to her…

She also longs for him as much as how Harry desired to take her now.
