Chapter 149 - Soundproof

By the time Amelie left the restaurant with the food she ordered, she had already been gone from the room for almost 2 hours. Amelie glanced at her watch guiltily. It was already 9pm!

"I hope Jackson's not starving," she whispered to herself as she rushed back up to the hotel room. 

But, as soon as she opened the hotel room door, she heard a loud bang from inside. Amelie's eyes opened wide with concern. Did Jackson faint from hunger?

She immediately closed the door and rushed inside.

However, the scene she saw was not what she expected.

Jackson's hair was messy and he had a bit of pink lipstick smeared across his mouth. But, even stranger, he was sitting on the sofa with some doc.u.ments in his hands as though nothing happened.

Meanwhile, a woman with a baseball cap and surgical mask stood awkwardly beside him. What was happening in here?

As soon as the woman saw Amelie, she put on her sunglasses and mumbled, "I think I should get going." She then scurried past Amelie and out the front door as quick as a bolt of lightning.

Even though the woman was fully disguised, Amelie recognized her voice and the smell of lavender as she brushed past.

"What was Halia doing here?" she asked Jackson with a slight smirk.

Jackson cleared his throat, not removing his gaze from the doc.u.ments in front of him. "She was arranging a meeting between us and her handler," he replied, trying to sound serious.

"Oh, really?"Amelie asked. "I thought you were getting hungry waiting for me, so she came to feed you," she giggled as she pointed to her mouth, gesturing to the man that there was something on his lips.

Jackson quickly wiped his lips and looked at his fingers. There was pink lipstick on them!

He smiled a little as he remembered the woman that was in his arms just a moment ago. The atmosphere was getting quite heated before Amelie returned. If she had come back any later, he may have lost control.

He blushed a little and stood up. "I'm going to go have a shower," he said. He needed to cool off.

Amelie watched as the man walked into the bathroom and shook her head with a laugh. It seemed, she had felt guilty for nothing. 

...

Not too far away, inside another suite in the hotel, Little Pumpkin had just fallen asleep. Natalie kissed her son on the forehead and stepped out into the living room to join the man that was waiting patiently for her.

Sean walked up to Natalie and looked at her dotingly as he held onto her hands, "Is Pumpkin asleep?"

Natalie nodded her head as she glanced down at the ring on her finger. Now that the day was over and they were on their own, she finally got the chance to process what happened.

Everything still felt so surreal. Did this man really ask her to marry him today?

Who knew, she would be leaving Macau with a fiance?

But, while she was still in disbelief at the day's events, the man's voice suddenly whispered seductively beside her ear, "Good, I've been waiting all day to kiss you."

Natalie held her breath when she heard this. Before she could respond, Sean pulled her into his arms and started kissing her passionately on the lips. Unlike his calm and serious exterior, this man was wild on the inside and it surprised Natalie a little, but she liked it. Every time he moved away to breathe, he would kiss back down harder than before.

Natalie felt her body heat up with desire as she ran her fingers through the man's neatly slicked back hair. Her every touch sent tingles down his spine, leaving him wanting more.

Then, to his surprise, she gently weaved her tongue into his mouth, provoking him to take things further. They were both mature a.d.u.l.ts who had been in long term relationsh.i.p.s before, so the s.e.x.u.a.l tension was building as they anticipated what was to happen next.

Sean bent down slightly and grabbed the woman behind the knees, lifting her up in his arms and she responded by wrapping her arms around his neck. He then pressed her against the wall and slowly lifted her skirt. Natalie gasped as she felt the man's warm palm on her thigh and her legs subconsciously wrapped around his h.i.p.s, drawing him in closer.

Sean ran his hands up the woman's body, tracing her curvy body up to her b.r.e.a.s.ts. Although she was already a mother, she visited the gym often and took care of her body, so she was still in great shape. In fact, she was oozing with femininity.

As he cupped his hands around her b.r.e.a.s.ts, Natalie let out a gentle m.o.a.n of pleasure, but she quickly stopped him. "Pumpkin's in the next room," she reminded as she tried to catch her breath.

Sean moved away from her lips and looked at the woman in his arms. He respected her concern, but he could sense the frustration in her voice.

"I'm sorry, this is the reality of having a child," she said as she glanced down sadly. "Perhaps, you should reconsider marrying me."

It had been almost 6 years since Pumpkin's father died. Natalie was a young widow with a young child, so of course, there were times when she wanted to date and be in a relationship like other women. But, it never seemed feasible and it made her lose confidence in herself. After all, who would want to marry a woman with a child? There was no such thing as privacy or romance with a child - let alone s.e.x.

But, to her surprise, Sean kissed her on the lips and started carrying her somewhere.

He was about to prove her wrong.

Natalie looked at the man with confusion. What was he doing?

Suddenly, she felt the cold night air brush against her exposed thighs and realized Sean had carried her out onto the balcony. As he closed the balcony door shut behind them he whispered seductively, "The glass here is soundproof. Pumpkin won't hear a thing."
