The CEO’s Lovely Wife - Chapter 227

October frowned as she wore her skirt. She had a hard time closing the zipper. She looked down and sure enough, her belly has grown somewhat. Was she eating too much lately?

“I’ll have to buy new ones.” She muttered under her breath as she pulled out her blazer that matches her skirt.

“Buy what?”

Out of the blue, Lexus’ voice was heard in the background at the same time October was pulled into a warm embrace. Instantly, her nose was assaulted by the fresh scent of soap and shampoo that was neither strong nor light as it was just the type wherein she could take all of his scent in one go without choking or getting disgusted with it.

“I need to buy new clothes.” She replied, already used to his sneak attacks on her. But still, the hot breath that hits her at the back of her b.a.r.e neck still makes her neck hot and numb.

Lexus raised his brow at this. Then his sinful hands roamed around her waist and rubbed her slightly bulging abdomen. Instantly, his eyes narrowed and his lips stretched into a smile, soft and warm.

October was already three months pregnant. With that, her eating consumption increased and her baby bump became more prominent. So, it was really not that surprising that her skirt was tighter than it originally was.

“Are you here for your tie?” October asked this but her eyes had already wandered around to choose a tie for him. Her gaze then landed on a black tie with silver stripes. “How about this?”

Actually, Lexus really does not care about his attire. He would just randomly pull a shirt, tie and all without much thinking. But despite all that, he would still look irrefutably stunning and fashionable. He can pull off any clothes he wore without much effort.

In other words, Lexus wore his clothes and remained looking good, not the clothes wearing him.

“Okay.” He automatically agreed. To him, anything his wife says, he would agree. He twisted her body to face him and she helped him put his tie for him.

It was delightful to see his wife looking so serious as she put the tie on him. His eyes were full of doting and also a hint of amus.e.m.e.nt. The grin on his lips could not be erased.

“Done.” She said, feeling accomplished. Truthfully, she does not know how to knot a tie. It was frustrating, especially when she got laughed at by Lexus at her face. It was embarrassing at infuriating.

With that, she practiced a lot until she can make knot of all kinds. Getting laughed by Lexus was not pleasant at all.

She craned her head up to look at Lexus only to find that he was looking at her too. She found that her husband was so dazzling as if there was some sort of halo glowing all over him. Was he always this charismatic and handsome?

“Husband, do you know that you look so beautiful?”

‘Beautiful?’ Lexus frowned. That did not sit well to him. Was he feminine-looking to make her say that he was beautiful? No. He was manly, okay!

October did not know what Lexus was thinking as she only saw him furrowing his brows with a look of disbelief.

“My wife. It is a well-known fact that your husband is handsome, more handsome and manly than those actors on tv and models on magazines.” He said darkly before biting her nose playfully. “Never call your hubby beautiful.”

October glared at Lexus for biting her nose. Even though it did not hurt, but it almost made her have a heart attack. And of course, her face burned in no time.

“Don’t do that.” She warned while covering her nose on one hand and used the other to push him away.

Fortunately, Lexus did not made things difficult for her as he released her without much fight. He does not want to make her glare at him all the time. Even though her angry face was also pretty, he still loved her looking happy and smiling brightly at him.

Chuckling, he shoved both hands into his pocket and followed his wife out into their bedroom with an arrogant smile on his face. As soon as he arrived in the bedroom, he saw her fixing her hair in the vanity mirror then turned to briefly look at herself on the full-length mirror.

But what he did not expect was what she would do next. She had suddenly frowned as she touched her belly then her hand went up to cup her b.r.e.a.s.t.

Even though it was not deliberate and that her action seemed nonchalant and simple, it was enough to make his heart pound and his burning d.e.s.i.r.e awakened.

‘No. I can’t do that right now. Control yourself, you beast. It’s early in the morning. It’s not yet time to eat.’ He scolded himself. He bit his tongue to harshly push down his raging d.e.s.i.r.e and control himself. Only after controlling himself did he went to his wife who seemed to worry about something.

“Do you want help with that?” He smirked with a seductive tone in his deep voice.

October jumped to her feet before turning an embarrassed look to him. She instantly put down her hand that was just on his b.r.e.a.s.t and hid it behind her. ���No.”

She tried to look calm but her blushing face gave it all away.

“Let’s go have breakfast downstairs.”

In no time, October disappeared from the room as she literally escaped his burning eyes. Of course, Lexus took this all in with eyes full of mirth. He followed suit.

After their silent breakfast with one looking amused and the other embarrassed, they went to work. While they were on their way, October was the first one to break the silence.

“I…” She stuttered, feeling shy. “I was just feeling heavy around my c.h.e.s.t area. It might be because of baby milk.”

Hearing this almost made Lexus stop the car and pounced on his cute and innocent wife who lacked awareness of herself and her words.

“Right. Before I forget, I’ll have my second prenatal check-up tomorrow. Do you—”

“I’ll go with you.” He said without even letting October finished what she was saying. However, she did not get angry but instead she was happy and relieved that he will accompany her.

October hummed in acknowledgement before turning to her side window with a small smile on her lips.

“Have you decided what to name our child?” Lexus asked with a wide grin on his face. He looked excited with his face flushed and his eyes bright. Right now, he was someone who does not emit a dangerous and dark air around him because it was that of a look of a man excited about becoming a first-time father. He looked like any other normal person.

With raised eyebrow, October became thoughtful before turning to look at him. “Have you?”

“Yes.” He said, feeling proud of himself. But this did not last long as October dropped a bomb on him.

“Oh right. When grandpa called, he told me that he had already discussed on what the name of our child with mother and father when he visited them for tea.”

“What?!” Lexus was dumbfounded. Soon, it was replaced with a scowl as he gnashed his teeth. “No, I won’t accept that. I am the father so I will name my child.”
