Chapter 254 - Starless Night

"Oscar? You have returned to the boarding house…!" Lisa exclaimed, surprised to see Oscar's figure standing firmly in the doorway while smiling sweetly. Her eyes fell on Oscar's charming face, who was just getting more and more handsome. Lisa couldn't lie to herself that whenever she saw him, her eyes always sparkled. 

"I miss you, can't I come?" Oscar asked back, tilting his head. The man was the same, every time he met Lisa, he always looked at her with sparkling eyes and a flowery heart. He could not deny his feelings and his love for that woman.

"You really brought the entire mall to my rickety boarding house, huh, Oscar?" Lisa asked jokingly. 

The living room seemed to be filled with branded goods that Oscar had bought for her. The man swept the living room with a careful gaze. "How about it? Do you like some of the clothes and bags I chose?"

"Yes, there are also some things I don't like so I just gave them to Andien instead of not wearing them at all," Lisa replied casually, shrugging her shoulders.

In return, Oscar just muttered and picked up some of the clothes Lisa had put on the sofa.

"Actually, I still don't know what your taste in clothing is, so I really avoid clothes with tacky motifs. Apart from reminding me of Karina, I don't prefer clothes with bright colors," Oscar explained as he folded the scattered clothes.

"By the way, why haven't you brought these clothes to your room?" He asked curiously.

"Oh, it's because I don't have a big cupboard to store everything. So I'll just put it on the sofa for a while," Lisa answered frankly.

"Maybe I can help organize?" Oscar asked, offering to help. 

"Yes, go ahead if you don't mind," Lisa said casually. The woman moved several bags she took out of the box to her room. 

Downstairs, Oscar went to the kitchen, got a glass of water and then took a quick sip. It was so hot outside that he got thirsty very easily. The man stripped off his clothes, leaving only the underwear behind.

When Lisa came down from the second floor, she was surprised to see Oscar wearing nothing but his underwear. In her heart, she was actually happy to see that man's athletic body was exposed, but on the other hand, she blushed hard at the amazing view.

Lisa covered her face from Oscar, afraid that the man would find her blushing. She returned to the living room to get the clothes she put on the sofa while restraining herself from glancing at Oscar's crotch where the man's lump was so tantalizing to touch.

Lisa accidentally stared at Oscar's crotch then swallowed hard. She turned her eyes in another direction, but the man realized that she was just looking at him. Oscar then smiled mischievously.

"Lisa, don't pretend I didn't know what you did. I saw you glancing at my crotch," Oscar teased with a mischievous look while biting his lower lip.

Lisa shook her head, trying to take her dirty thoughts away. "Oscar, rather than accusing me of staring at your member, you'd better help me clean the room."

"As you wish, your highness," Oscar replied, lowering his head as if Lisa were his master. The man helped her carry things from the living room upstairs, then piled them at the end of the room and sighed.

"Wow, your room..." Not finished with the sentence, Lisa immediately cut Oscar.

"Like a broken ship? Or like a warehouse?"

Oscar fell silent at the words just now. He blinked and then said, "...A hot mess, and that's normal. You must be so busy lately at the office that you don't have time to clean up,"

"So please help, please. I need domestic help more than these many branded goods, to be honest," Lisa said casually. There was a nosy tone in her voice.

"Hey, I'm just trying my best to make you happy," Oscar replied irritably as if his prize wasn't accepted.

"Hey, I'm just kidding! Don't take it too seriously or you will get wrinkles on your forehead and grow older soon," Lisa replied cheerfully. She jokingly pushed Oscar's burly shoulders.

For almost an hour long, the two lovebirds were tidying up Lisa's messy room. They worked hand in hand to throw out the trash and clean the furniture in the room and ended their activities with a lazing session where they were lying down together on the bed.

Lisa was very tired and so was Oscar. The man's breath was panting in Lisa's arms. The two exchanged glances then smiled and chuckled.

"Oscar, I never thought you were so clever at cleaning. I rarely see a smart guy cleaning like you," Lisa said spontaneously. She rested her head on Oscar's shoulder.

"I know right? In my country, it's common to see men cleaning and doing domestic work like this. But it's the opposite in your country, isn't it?" Oscar replied, staring at Lisa's moldy ceiling.

"Yes, you're right," Lisa replied briefly. She stroked Oscar's wide palm gently. She was very happy to be beside him while touching the palm of the man of European blood. It was as if there was positive energy flowing from behind his wide palms into Lisa's body.

"Tell me, Lisa," Oscar asked suddenly, "Aren't you tired of living in this pathetic rickety house?" The man turned around to meet her eyes. He supported his head with his sturdy arms.

Lisa was silent for a moment. Her eyes glanced down for a moment, confused about what to answer. She racked her brain to find the right answer. "If you said it as bored then yes I'm bored, but we both haven't officially married, Oscar. I don't want to move into your house before we really officially become husband and wife,"

"But at that time, you wanted to live with me even though you were not officially my wife," Oscar asked, remembering the past.

"It's because I'm in a difficult position. I was your personal secretary and you threatened  to fire me if I did not comply with all your requests," Lisa replied plainly.

Oscar chuckled at Lisa's answer just now. "About that, I'm sorry..."

It was cloudy outside, adding the gloomy look to the already dark sky. Moments ago, the sky had been bright and studded with stars, but now it had become dark. The hot air turned cold instantly. Recently, the air in Jakarta was often strange. Sometimes hot, and some other times cold.

When a cold gust of wind bursted into Lisa's room through the open window, her body immediately trembled. She quickly curled up and hugged Oscar to make her body warmer.

The man embraced Lisa and hugged her tighter. As he pulled the blanket, Oscar kissed Lisa's forehead gently and said, "I love you, Lisa ..."

"I love you too, Oscar," Lisa replied in his arms. She looked at Oscar with a confused face. The man was wearing nothing but his underwear, even though the wind from outside was very cold.

"Oscar, are you not wearing clothes? You'll catch a cold," Lisa said worriedly.

"No need, I'm used to the cold. It's not cold for me anyway. I'm hot instead!" Oscar replied, rubbing his sweaty forehead.

"You damn foreigner, you guys are really weird!" Lisa replied nosily.
