Chapter 766
Chapter 766 Sleep Together After A Bath
At Seabay Villa, Jessica finally managed to clean up Elliot’s mess after spending a long time.
She doused herself with a lot of perfume after emerging from the bathroom.
For reasons unknown, she felt goosebumps crawl all over her skin after she was done.
The thought of becoming the stepmother to such a brat in the future made her swear to herself that she’d reform Elliot and make him understand who was in charge.
However, her priority right now was to find a way to remain by Nathaniel’s side..
“Nathaniel, I’ve finished cleaning up. You haven’t eaten yet, right? I’ll go cook,” she said. She had been cleaning the bathroom just now and had yet to showcase her abilities in front of Nathaniel.
In order to get closer to Nathaniel, she had honed her culinary skills.
Before Nathaniel could speak, Elliot beat him to it. “Auntie Jessica, you’re going to cook for us right after cleaning up poop?”
“Huh?” Jessica’s expression stiffened as she explained, “I’ve cleaned myself up.”
“But you’ll still smell.” Elliot stared at her with his huge, innocent eyes. “Also, did you dry my pants? I still need to wear them.”
He was now wrapped in a bath towel far too large for his small frame, making it awkward and
cumbersome to move around.
“Elliot, I’ve put your pants in the dryer. They’ll be ready soon.” Jessica’s face was filled with a tender smile. “I’ll go and prepare dinner now. Do you like cookies? I can make lots of delicious cookies.”
Elliot did not expect this woman to be so shameless. Pinching his nose and feigning disgust, he said, “No thanks, you stink.”
Jessica’s face turned sour. I stink? This little rascal made such a mess in the restroom, and I cleaned up after him. How dare he complain that I stink? Are you kidding me?
“Elliot…” Jessica wanted to say something else, but Nathaniel interrupted her, “You don’t need to cook. Someone will deliver food later.”
His expression remained unchanged, yet Jessica could still sense his disdain.
She had hoped to showcase her culinary skills, but now that chance was gone, too.
It’s all Elliot’s fault! Jessica found the child annoying.
“Should I make you some coffee?” she offered, having learned the art of brewing coffee.
Unfortunately, ever since Elliot mentioned she’d been cleaning up after the dog. Nathaniel didn’t want her hands anywhere near his cup.
“No need.”
“I’ll pour you some water.”
“No need.”
Elliot turned to look at her, his eyes sparkling. “Aunt Jessica, why don’t you continue cleaning the toilet? I like a toilet that smells good.”
Jessica, at around twenty years old and in the prime of her youth, certainly didn’t want to spend. her day scrubbing the toilet. Elliot’s words almost made her go crazy.
Fortunately, the air dryer saved her.
“Eli, your pants are ready. I will go get them for you.”
“No need. I can get it myself. Aunt Jessica, you should go wash your hands again.
Jessica fell silent, hurt by Elliot’s remark. She even began questioning if she really smelled that bad.
Frustrated, she asked Nathaniel timidly, “Nathaniel, may I use the bathroom? I want to take a bath.”
“There’s one in the guest room downstairs.”
“All right.”
Eager to wash away the filth she felt clinging to her, Jessica rushed to the bathroom. She scrubbed her skin so thoroughly, it was as if she was trying to cleanse every inch of herself.
Elliot put on his pants and emerged from the restroom when he heard the faint sound of water coming from the guest room. He was about to go and check when Nathaniel chided, “She’s taking a bath. Don’t intrude.”
The boy was surprised that Jessica was actually taking a bath.
According to those TV series, they’ll probably sleep together after a bath. Why isn’t Mommy here yet?
