If I Never Loved You - Chapter 57 Chapter 57

That was the only distraction Antonio could think of at this time.

“Get ready,” he said. “I’m going to get a fresh basin of water and some towels.”

He entered the bathroom without looking back and spent over half an hour inside there.

Anne wondered what he was up to. It shouldn’t take him that long to get a basin of water.

Finally, he came out.

“Are you ready?” he asked.

He sat beside her on the bed and dipped the towel into the basin. He squeezed it and rub her hands with it. He did same for her face, neck and feet. He continued until he was convinced she was now clean and fresh.

Through it all, he never for once tried to make advances at her. He behaved like a complete gentleman and didn’t even let his touches linger a minute longer than necessary. Having finished with that, he stood up with the basin in his hands and walked in the direction of the bathroom.

“I will be back soon.” He told her as he entered the bathroom again to put down the basin of water and the towels.

Anne patiently lied on the bed as she waited for him

He spent another half an hour in there. When he returned, Anne was soundly asleep.

He looked at her face, peaceful in sleep and smiled to himself: “While I was inside struggling to control myself, you are also here peacefully sleeping.”@@
