Chapter 874 - Supreme Ultimate (3)

"You are not punching hard enough." Vincent caught Emily's fist without dodging and gave her a little pull. Emily fell into his arms. Raising his eyebrows, Vincent slid his palm from Emily's legs to her waist and then his index finger from her waist to her chest. It was then he leaned against Emily's ear to whisper, "Full of flaws."

Emily pushed Vincent away in embarrassment before striking the next round of attacks.

The guards at the door shook their heads as they watched.

"Guard A: No wonder we got kicked out. They are basically making out!"

"Guard B: Mr. Vincent does take pains to take care of Mrs. Emily."

"Guard C: Look, Mrs. Emily's face flushed bright red."

"Guard D: Men."

Rex was lost for words.

That night, Vincent got locked outside. He knocked on the door and yelled at Emily, "Open the door."

"You meanie! You didn't go easy on me at all!" Emily fumed, standing on the bed with her hands on her hips. "You will sleep in the study room tonight. Don't come into my room."

The guards and Rex were eating ice cream at the door, watching the show.

Vincent suddenly shot a glare over, and the ice cream fell off from the hands of the guards.

The guards were left speechless.

"Allow me!" Rex volunteered.

"No need, I will sleep in the study," Vincent said dryly.

Rex was shocked. "Mr. Vincent, are you sure? It's freezing!"

"It's not like there's no heater in the study. Why make such a big deal about it?" Emily thought to herself.

Emily leaned against the door and eavesdropped on the conversation.

Rex continued, "The air-conditioning in the study room is broken. I haven't asked anyone to fix it yet."

"It's fine." Vincent was on his way towards the study.

Rex sighed at the door, "Mr. Vincent's legs haven't recovered yet. How could he sleep in such a cold place."

And the footsteps faded away.

Emily pressed against the door for a while before figuring no one was out there. She climbed into the bed.

She would not fall for it. Rex was definitely putting on an act.

Emily tossed and turned for a few minutes. She looked at the clock. It was already half-past ten in the night. Vincent would normally sit and read by the bed at this time, while Emily read picture books in his cuddle.

When Emily saw a nice picture, she would poke Vincent's arm to show him, and then the two of them would smile together.

Emily pouted as she paced the floor. She pressed her ear against the door again for a while before She finally gently opened the door. Emily only opened an inch. She waited, and nothing happened. Wasn't Vincent at the door?

She quietly poked her head out. There was indeed no one outside.

Emily opened the door and walked out. She stepped on the soft light of the floor lamp and walked to the living room. There was no one on the sofa or in the kitchen, and the study door was closed.

Did Vincent really sleep in the study room?

Emily was about to go to the study when she was suddenly shocked by the four shadows by the wall. She gripped her chest and looked at the guards who were hanging upside down on the wall. "Why aren't you sleeping?" Emily whispered.

Guard A said aggrievedly, "I was punished for eating the ice cream."

"Vincent doesn't even let you eat the ice cream?" Emily was surprised.

Guard B added, "It was because we were making fun of Mr. Vincent."

"What was it about?" Emily looked blank.

The four guards all looked at her.

Emily pointed at herself. "Me? What have I done..." Just then, she remembered how she had just locked Vincent outside of the room. Emily scratched her head awkwardly. "Well... you guys continue."

"Mrs. Emily, aren't you going to talk Mr. Vincent back to the bedroom?" guard C asked.

Emily gave a small cough. "No, I came out just to take a walk."

"Yeah, right. All Women do is lie," said Guard D.

Emily was choked with words.

On half of her way back, Emily recalled something and turned around to stare at guard D. "I remember the saying is "All men do is lie.'"

Guard D humphed. "They are all the same."

Emily was silenced.

Emily was so angry that she quickly went to the kitchen to get ice cream. She sat on the carpet and enjoyed the ice cream before the four upside-down guards.

It was the guards' turn losing for words.

"I think the vanilla one is not as good as the mango one." It was not enough just to eat; Emily began to comment on the taste, "The peach one is a bit too sweet, but the mango one avoids that by mixing the natural taste of mango with the sweetness. Plus, the chocolate added just the right amount. Wow, you can smell the sweet aroma of cream when you breathe, with a light fruity scent..."

"That's enough!" guard D came down from the wall and lifted Emily up, throwing her into the study once he opened the door. He even managed to snatch the remaining ice cream from Emily's hand.

There was dead silence.
