Chapter 16 An Unexpected Kiss
Perhaps it was in a too strange environment, Mary was sleeping, quietly and restlessly.
She didn't know what time it was, but she just felt that someone opened the door and went out.
"It's time to get up." A voice suddenly sounded in her ears.
'Who is it? Who is waking me up in such a gentle voice? If it wasn't someone who had gone out, then who is this?'
"Mary, get up soon."
"HMM..." Turning over, Mary decided to ignore the person beside her. No matter how beautiful the voice is, it can't stop me from sleeping. The alarm hasn't rung yet
"It's time for the meal." William bent over and whispered in her ear.
Meal? 'I don't eat so early. Don't tempt me. With the meal...
Mary covered her head with the quilt and groaned, but she didn't get up yet.
The corners of William's mouth twitched. It seemed that he had to play his trump card...
"Mary, if you don't get up, you will be late." With a snicker, William pretended to be pitiful and said, "Your bonus will be deducted if you are late..." Bonus?! My bonus!
As soon as Mary heard the "bonus", she was thrilled. Suddenly, she lifted the quilt and sat up.
It never occurred to William that his trump card was so effective. Seeing that the head of Mary rushed to him, he had no time to react.
With a bang, the two heads bumped into each other.
"Ah! It hurts..." Mary's head was against William's head. Tears were welling up in her eyes. When she raised her head, she saw soft and hot lips.
With a posture of bending down, William felt dizzy. When he was about to curse, his lips were blocked by an unexpected kiss of Mary.
'Oh my God! What's going on?'
All of a sudden, Mary opened her eyes and looked at his face, as if she had fallen into a black vortex, forgetting about the pain.
"I'm so sorry! So sorry." The two of them kept silent for a few seconds like statues. Then, Mary came back to her senses all of a sudden. She quickly withdrew her shelf and apologized with a sad face, "I'm sorry. I didn't mean it... Sorry, sorry... "
Hearing that, the softness on her lips suddenly disappeared. It was not until then that she stood straight and said coldly, "hurry up to pack up and have dinner. Don't let the old man wait for you." Then he went straight into the restroom.
Looking at his back, Mary almost cried out. 'Oh my God! This is the second time I made trouble. I'm really going to be fired this time...'
After walking a few steps to the restroom, William slammed the door.
The mirror in the restroom reflected his red face.
How could he kiss a woman? Although it was just an accident, he didn't feel bad?!
After putting on her clothes gingerly, Mary ran out of the room before William walked out of the restroom.
"Mr. Mary, you get up so early." Gary stood at the table, smiling.
"It's not early at all." With a wry smile, Mary went downstairs and found that Timothy had taken his seat. "Good morning... Father."
"Morning." Timothy nodded with a faint smile, but he saw the swollen forehead and knees of Mary. He asked, "What's wrong with your knees and forehead? Why are they swollen like this?" "Well..." "It happened accidentally. It doesn't matter." said Mary shyly.
"Did William bully you again?"
"No, no," explained Mary in a hurry, "He, he is good to me."
When William, who was going downstairs, heard what Mary said just now, he felt his ears turn red again.
"Mr. William is also here."
As soon as Mary heard this, she raised her head unconsciously and looked at William downstairs. The sights of the two mixed and her face turned red in an instant.
Timothy watched the two silently. Looking at the embarrassed expressions of the two and the slightly swollen bag on the head of William, he smiled. There was something fishy...
"Good morning, father." William nodded and sat down, trying to avoid Mary's sight.
But Mary also lowered her head to eat.
"Just stay at home to accompany Mary. Don't go to work." Timothy suddenly said.
"No, I can't stay at home today," said William, taking a sip of juice. "There will be a new opera opening ceremony tomorrow. We need to prepare well today."
"Then let Mary rest at home."
"No," said William, who was one step ahead of him. "She also has a lot of things to do."
"Yes, yes." Mary echoed with a smile.
"You brat," Timothy shouted angrily, "You don't know how to care about your wife at all. Even if Mary don't go, your small company will collapse?!"
A small company
Mary smiled and said, "Father... I have nothing to do at home. I'd better go to work."
"Yes, father." William pretended to say inadvertently. "I don't want to raise an idler. "
"Damn you!"
Lowering her head, Mary took a big bite of the fried egg, but didn't notice the smile on William's face.
After the meal, on the car back to the company, Mary felt awkward.
She had been busy apologizing just now, but now she remembered how intimate her "accidental kiss" in the morning was.
The moment kept flashing in Mary's mind, which made her heart beat fast.
"Mary," said William in a low voice, looking out of the window. "It seems that we two have to make a few more rules."
"What? What What rules?" Mary came to herself and asked.
"You have to get up early to cook for me every morning."
"What?" Hearing this, Mary immediately pulled a long face and said, "I... I don't know how to cook breakfast."
"If you don't, just learn!"
"Oh..." Pursing her lips, Mary felt much much unwillingness in her heart.
"And," said William after a pause, "Don't get too close to me in the future."
Mary was startled and felt bad. She leaned against the car door and said with a bitter smile, "I... about what happened this morning..."
Hearing that she was going to apologize for what happened this morning, William's face was burning. 'She doesn't know that I am feeling awkward now. Could she just stop talking...?' "I really didn't mean it..."
"Don't mention what happened this morning!" Hearing that, William couldn't bear it anymore and made a shout suddenly. Mary was so frightened that she closed her mouth directly.
Silence filled the car in a sudden.
After shouting, William realized that he was a little excited just now. He turned his head and saw Mary scared out of wits.
It was true that such a woman was pitiful.
William raised his hand and wanted to touch her head to comfort her.
When he reached into the air, he felt that it was unnecessary. 'Why should I comfort her? We are just in a contractual relationship. Don't give her hope...'
William clenched his fists and frowned slightly.
Turning her head to look out of the window, Mary didn't notice the tangle in William's heart.
'Yes, I don't understand you and you don't make the explanation. This was the best way for us to get along.'☐☐☐☐☐☐
