Lust Contracts 18+ Hunting for Love with My Three Contract Husbands - Chapter 79

79 The Woman He Wants to Marry

I should have known that working with EROS on that scene would trigger this. Honestly, I didn’t think that it would end up being this bad. I really lost my composure and I let him touch me like that. In the end, I decided to put the blame on him and excuse me of any fault. The truth was, I was too careless, and I hated the fact that I enjoyed the pleasure from his seductive touches as his hands and lips caressed my body. It felt good and my body still remembers the joy of his fingers pumping deep inside of my love hole. I pushed that thought aside as I ignored the slight ache in between my legs.

Unfortunately, today was a Monday and that meant that I had work to do. Justin would handle the rest with EROS. Now, I have to get a move on with my life and go to work. I got out of bed with a dizzy feeling in my head as I headed for the bathroom. A nice warm bath will probably make me feel better even if it wouldn’t solve any of my problems.

…

I was driving to the hospital when my phone started ringing. Without looking at the caller ID on my phone screen, I knew that it must be Adrian. Thank God for the small joys in life. Adrian’s call brought a small smile to my lips. Despite everything, I still looked forward to seeing Adrian today even if I wasn’t one hundred percent fit and ready for the job. I was still determined to do my best for Adrian’s sake. I didn’t want to disappoint him.

“Hi, Adrian,” I said when the call connected.

“Are you driving right now?” Adrian asked.

“Yes, I’m almost there. Am I running late?” I asked as I glanced at the time on the car’s monitor.

It didn’t’ seem like I was going to be late though. I wondered if he needed anything urgently.

“Not at all. I guess I just got a little impatient…” Adrian admitting before laughing softly.

…..

He’s such a sweetheart. Seriously.

I smiled a little at his adorable words. It was then that I started to seriously envy his ex-wife. I know that she was dead, and it was poor taste to be jealous of a dead woman but still, I felt sightly jealous of her. It was truly unfortunate that she passed away so young.

“I’ll be there soon so hang in there, ok?” I said teasingly.

“I’ll try my best. Just park in front of the hospital. The valet can park your car. I’ll be waiting for you right in the lobby,” Adrian instructed.

“Sure. I’ll do that. See you soon,” I said sweetly.

“See you,” he replied, and I ended the call.

After leaving the car to the valet, I walked through the automatic doors into the lobby of the hospital. Just as he had promised, Adrian was waiting for me there and he smiled when he spotted me walking in. I waved at him and returned his smile. Adrian was dressed in his doctor’s uniform, and I found it very attractive. Then again, I also found Adrian in a suit attractive too. Maybe I just found everything about him pleasing to the eye.

“You’re stuck working with me at the hospital again. I hope I don’t bore you,” Adrian said in an apologetic tone.

“Not at all. I’m sure that I’ll find it interesting,” I quickly reassured him.

“How’s your ankle? I guess it’s all healed up already…and you’re wearing heels again,” Adrian said as he glanced down at my feet and the shoes that I was wearing.

“Yes. Thanks to you, my ankle is as good as new,” I replied cheerfully.

“Glad to hear it,” he replied before flashing me a smile.

We walked side by side as Adrian stared leading me to his personal office. While walking along, that was when I started feeing icy stares from the people around us. The female hospital staff had their eyes on us, and their gazes were far from friendly. If looks could kill, I would have died around a hundred times that day.

If Adrian was aware of the situation, he did not show it. The kind smile that he showed me never left his lips and he seemed as confident as ever. Since I didn’t want to trouble him, I decided to completely ignore the other people and what they thought. That was a skill that I had developed over the years. There would always be people who would dislike me, and I just had to learn that it wasn’t my responsibility to please all of them. I didn’t even know them, so why the hell should I care?

The nurses whispered to each other as we walked past, and I didn’t even need to have a brain for me to figure out that they were whispering about Adrian and me. The people’s reaction was a lot worse than my first week here at the hospital and I knew well why that was so. Everyone must have heard about Adrian’s sudden announcement that he was considering marrying me for real. Suddenly, I had transformed from being ‘some girl’ that he was dating to ‘the girl’ that he wanted to marry.

“My schedule is quite tight today unfortunately. If you feel tired, you don’t need to go everywhere with me. You can always come back here to my office and rest, ok?” Adrian instructed kindly as he took off his white doctor uniform and placed it on the hanger.

I watched as he put on his suit and turned to smile kindly at me. His smile felt like the warm ray of the sun on a windy day. It was soothing and I welcomed it.

“I’ll try my best…” I replied.

“Don’t tire yourself out during the day. I want you to have dinner with us at my house after I get off work. The truth is, I want to introduce you to my daughter…if that’s ok with you that is…” Adrian suggested a little hesitantly.
