Chapter 229 A Crazy Nigh

Joseph knew that she was supportive yet still worried about him, so he nodded in agreement.

After they established a plan, Kate pulled away from Joseph. She walked toward the kitchen, “Let me see what we have in the refrigerator so that I can make something to eat.”

"My dear, your cooking skills are getting better and better," Joseph shouted after her.

Kate wanted to cook on her own to give Joseph a break. However, after entering the kitchen, Joseph jumped in front of her and began pulling out vegetables. He motioned for her to sit; she pulled up a stool and watched her handsome husband cook supper.

"Your appreciation is more important than anything to me,” Joseph passed her a glass of red wine and said with a smile, "Cheers!"

She raised her cup and smiled, "Can I drink at home? You are here with me, so I guess you don’t need to worry about something happening."

Joseph laughed, “You can not only drink, but you can get drunk when I am with you!”

With his blessing, she gulped down her entire glass.

“But, slow down!” he shouted.

She licked her lips and said happily, “I realize that when I drink with you, the wine tastes sweet, not bitter.”

Pleased with her comment, Joseph took the wine bottle and poured her another glass. He reminded her, “Drink slowly, and no one will have to help you. You better not drink too much anyway your stomach may get upset.”

Kate picked up her glass then squinted, “Joseph, I find you are quite different. In the past, you didn't even like talking to me, but now you are a little naggy…"

Joseph might have gotten upset with her teasing him in the past, but he loved it now. He frowned, “Don’t you like it?”

She shook her head and replied honestly, "You are only so very considerate to me.”

Joseph looked at her, “I’m happy that you know it.”

Out of pleasure, Kate drank several glasses of wine, one right after another. Joseph had reminded her to drink slowly, but he could not control her any longer after a few glasses. He figured there was no point in arguing with her since she was home with him.

“Joseph, I’m a little drunk,” Kate commented as she touched her forehead.

Seeing her red face, Joseph stretched out his hand to take away the glass and said gently, “Then no more drinking.”’

He got up, walked over to her, and picked her up into his arms.

Kate felt dizzy, so she wrapped her arms around Joseph’s neck. She had a goofy grin on her face, “Your neck is just like a clothing rack. I am hanging on it!”

Joseph couldn't help but laugh at Kate, then replied, “It is only your clothing rack!”

There was very little distance between their lips. Kate seemed to be more relaxed and charming than usual. He was tempted by every small move she made, unable to control himself, he bent down to kiss her. Kate wrapped her arms around his neck again, kissing him without hesitation. Slowly they undressed each other and made passionate love.

The next morning Kate woke up, sore all over. She had only moved slightly, but she felt as if she was hit by a truck.

“You awake?” Joseph was still lying beside her with his hands behind his head.

Kate was still half-asleep, looking at him confused for a long while. She blushed and asked, “Was I drunk last night?”

He smiled slyly, "You are more charming when you are drunk."

Kate hit him, then asked, “So, you mean I am not charming when I don’t drink? Now, you are going to get me drunk before you want me?”

"I didn't mean it like that," Joseph didn't expect his words to turn to be a joke. He explained in a hurry, "After all, you were drunk last night, you were more..."

"More what?!" When she got drunk with Lisa, Lisa would laugh at her because she cried. Kate was worried she cried like a baby in front of Joseph.

"Before I tell you, you have to promise me not to be angry," Joseph said to her first.

She nodded in agreement.

"You are much more active when you are drunk," Joseph smirked.

"Huh?" Kate was caught off guard; she wasn't even thinking about that aspect of things.

"Last night..." Joseph stretched out his arm and pointed to the bite mark on his shoulder, "You did that."

Kate looked at the marks; she stuttered, "I did that?!"

"You don’t believe me?" Joseph stretched out the other arm, "Not only my arm but all over my body."

Joseph coughed to hide the awkwardness.

Knowing it was her who left the bite marks, Kate blushed. She could not believe she was that drunk; she whispered, "I didn't do anything other than bite you, right?"

"Do you need me to recall the details?" Joseph pointed to the scattered clothes and grinned evilly, "In addition to taking off your own clothes, you also helped me to take off my clothes..."

"Stop talking!" Kate shouted. She felt ashamed hearing Joseph talking about how she was acting. Her face grew hot, she was nervous, so she made up an excuse, "I am hungry. I will go downstairs to make breakfast.”

However, when she went to get up, her body hurt so much that she quickly sat back down.

Joseph reached out to rub her back and said gently, "You were wasted last night. Get some rest, and I will make breakfast."

The phrase ‘wasted last night’ embarrassed Kate even more. She realized that Joseph seemed to imply she was a bit more indulgent than she had been before.

They had made the promise to control themselves, but she had taken the initiative to seduce him.
