Chapter 99
"No." Sabrina refused outright and slapped his hand away.
Nelson was wearing a loose sweater.
He placed his hands on the back of the couch and gazed at her with a hint of amusement in his eyes, clearly in a good mood.
After a while, he finally spoke, "What are you thinking of? Am I that much of a beast? I told you that unless I get your consent, I won't touch you. I won't break my promise." She felt slightly embarrassed for misunderstanding him. "I'm going to bed. You can sleep on the sofa."
As she got up to leave, he grabbed her wrist. "Come on, let me take you somewhere relaxing."
Sabrina knew he was trying to make up for yesterday's incident, but she wasn't having any of it. "I'm not going anywhere. I just want to sleep."
"You're coming, whether you like it or not. I will carry you if I have to," Nelson stated, his tone gentle yet domineering.
She was annoyed by his fake kindness.
She knew, deep down, he wanted her to listen to him.
She took a deep breath and said, "Nelson, I admit I can't win against you, but don't think you can dictate my life."
Since he was relentless, she had to compromise.
To her surprise, he had arranged a full spa treatment for her.
The ambiance of the room was soothing because of the gentle lightning.
Her tired body felt even more relaxed under the orange blossom mist coming from the diffuser.
Sabrina undressed herself and lay on the soft bed. She believed Nelson must've often arranged such treatments for Pamela.
When Nelson entered, he saw the massage therapist spreading oil on Sabrina's smooth white back. A blanket covered her lower back, highlighting her curves.
He sat on the sofa and listened to her gentle voice instructing the therapist to be more firm.
Nelson felt a stir of emotion as she had once called his name in that same soft voice.
"Nelson, we're married," he recalled her saying.
At that time, he was annoyed by her happy expression as she called his name in joy after receiving their marriage certificate.
"Nelson, today's fish is very tender."
"Nelson, Lumina is entering the rainy season. You should wear more clothes."
"Nelson, do you like the custom shirts I ordered for you?"
He seemed to remember the things he used to clearly hate. He even began to miss them.
He couldn't help but be amazed at how humans changed easily.
Nelson lowered his eyes.
Since his return, Sabrina hadn't called his name like that again.
The therapist spoke to her again, but she didn't respond.
The massage therapist applied gentle pressure to her waist and legs, and Sabrina remained asleep.
After the therapist left, Sabrina still continued to sleep on the bed. Her hair was casually tied up, showing half of her face. Her slightly parted lips made her look gentle and submissive.
Nelson's fingers brushed her nose, and she wrinkled it without opening her eyes.
Sabrina didn't know how long she had slept.
When she opened her eyes, she saw Nelson sitting on the sofa with his legs crossed, reading a book.
He wore adoose black sweater
without a coat, exposing part of his
neck.

She turned over and realized she wasn't wearing any clothes under the blanket. "Can you hand me my clothes?"
When Nelson heard the laziness in her voice, he looked up and kindly brought her clothes to the bed.
"Do you feel better?" he asked.
"Yes," Sabrina replied, feeling much more relaxed.
She wrapped herself in the blanket when she sat up and held it with chin, fearing he might see

"Haven't I seen everything already?" Nelson said, leaning over.
Her face lacked the usual cold demeanor since she had just woken up.
She was bared-face, and her face, especially the small mole on her nose, looked extremely cute.
"Move away. I need to get dressed," Sabrina said.
"Don't get dressed just yet," Nelson said.
When Sabrina looked up, his lips pressed down on hers.
Nelson's suppressed desire quickly flared up after hours of holding back.
She was stunned for a few seconds, then tried to push him away in disgust.
