33 Ch. 33 Sleep Together

Lori didn’t stop smiling widely as her parents lay on her bedroom bed, flanking her on either side. Lori even pulled Anxia’s left hand and Richard’s right hand across her body, making the two people awkward.

Richard swallowed hard as he felt the soft skin of his wife’s hands. It reminded him of the unforgettable passionate night four years ago. On the other hand, Anxia felt awkward when her arm touched her husband’s. She wanted to withdraw but feared her daughter would be disappointed.

Anxia pretended to be asleep and waited for her daughter to fall asleep before she would break free.

Anxia had no idea that Richard was smiling as he looked at her face pretending to be asleep. Of course, Richard knew that his wife was faking it, but he didn’t reveal it and instead used this opportunity to enjoy the beautiful creature.

Little Lori’s innocent sleeping face seemed even more radiant, and there was a trace of a happy expression on her face as if the child had a sweet dream.

How could she not? The handsome father she met at the airport and wanted to set him up with her mother turned out to be her biological father!

At first, Lori wouldn’t force Anxia if her mother had insisted on not liking her handsome father-to-be. But now, nothing could stop her from reuniting with her parents when she knew Richard was her father. Lori was becoming more and more determined to unite these two people, and she would do everything she could to make her mother not bear to leave Richard.

And getting them to sleep together was one of her plans. Lori earned her intelligence from her father, but she got quick-witted from her mother.

.....

Lori knew very well these two people loved her very much and would do anything to fulfill her wish. She just needed to put on a sneer or frown so her parents would do anything for her.

Lori took advantage of their love and made them do whatever she asked... including sleeping together.

As the clock struck midnight, Richard decided to go out. He had to get ready for the video conference that would be held in an hour. Before that, Richard moved slowly to give his daughter a light kiss, and then he also moved to do the same to his wife.

But Anxia’s eyes immediately opened and gave a warning look as soon as she felt the movement next to her approach her.

‘Don’t you mess with me!’ as if he could hear her voice through his wife’s piercing eyes, Richard smirked to himself, exasperating Anxia.

Richard backed away and got off the bed, making Anxia sigh. She didn’t even have to look at the man walking out of the room because she didn’t want to see her husband. Anxia closed her eyes to sleep; this time, it was really sleeping, not a charade.

But again, her eyes opened in shock as she felt something soft against her cheek. It turned out that Richard didn’t walk to the door but turned around to kiss her on the cheek!?

Anxia glanced at her husband, who was now smiling triumphantly without fear of her deadly gaze.

“Shh.” Richard immediately put his index finger in front of his mouth when he saw Anxia about to get up to teach him a lesson. He gave her an eye code to tell her that Anxia would wake their fast-asleep daughter.

Anxia bit the inside of her cheek in frustration without being able to do anything. She knew that her daughter would quickly wake up if there were an unusual movement in the bed she was sleeping in. That’s why she immediately revoked her intention to get up when she realized that her daughter was still sleeping next to her.

Anxia’s gaze grew fiercer when she saw her shameless husband wink at her before finally leaving the room.

Ugh!

Anxia could only curse herself for her fatal mistake four years ago. She was indeed grateful to have Lori as her daughter, but she hoped the father of her beloved baby girl, not Richard!

The next morning, Anxia woke up first and realized that it was still four in the morning. Usually, her daughter would wake up around six o’clock, meaning there were still two hours before her daughter would wake up.

Sleeping only three to four hours a day has been a habit for decades. Her job as a hitman didn’t allow her to sleep well or fall asleep while on missions.

Danger from the enemy always lurked when she slept, and anything could happen if she pampered herself in a deep slumber. That’s why, no matter how sleepy she was, Anxia’s eyelids always refused to shut. Even if she forced herself to sleep, it would only last three hours.

If her body was exhausted and badly injured, then maybe she could sleep up to six hours.

Usually, this morning, she would open her dark website and sort out the missions she would take from there.

But now she couldn’t do it. First, Anxia didn’t bring her laptop, and second, Richard would know immediately as soon as she browsed illegal websites on this home computer.

In the end, Anxia decided to go out without waking her daughter. Anxia glanced at each corner of the room; as expected, several CCTV cameras were installed there.

She would not be able to find out about Stanley’s program. At least Anxia had to hack this house’s defense system if she wanted to dismantle the entire contents of this house to find her target.

She felt confident hacking someone’s cyber security system, but Anxia didn’t have the confidence in this case. Plus, Stanley Calvin was a former hacker and creator in the programming world.

That older man would catch her even before she broke through the security system of this place.

Anxia had to rethink if she wished to challenge a legendary former hacker.

Anxia decided to walk to the backyard to stand on the edge of the boat parked in this house’s yard. Luckily the sun had started to peek, so the air around her wasn’t too chilling.

Her gaze was fixed on the river water in front of her while dreaming. Anxia didn’t know what to do at the moment. She always planned her daily life in a neat and well-organized style. But her plans fell apart, and she had no mission since Richard confiscated all her communication devices and threw them away.

Wait! Doesn’t that perverted man still keep her bra that has the function of transmitting signals?

Where did the man keep it? If she could find her bra, she could send a signal to Ling Meng, and her friend would find a way to reach her without any traceable means of communication.

Anxia turned to go inside but stopped when she saw a guy she didn’t want to see.

How long had Richard been standing there? Why did the man’s expression make her restless?
