Chapter 19 Absurdity
“It’s been so long; do you think I’m easy to talk to? Hmm?”
He hung his head, his hot breath rushing towards me, his voice becoming hoarse.
My other hand was also grabbed by him, and somehow it turned into both hands being pressed against the wall above, with a shameful look of submission.
I knew that he was the leader of the Murray family, and I knew that at the age of 18, he saved the Murray family’s property from destruction. Afterward, he used ruthless methods to regain control of the entire Murray family and took the position of the leader.
He went abroad to study when he was 19 years old and gradually transferred the Murray family’s business overseas.
From that year on, I gradually lost contact with him.
Outsiders said the Murray Group was an autocracy, they said it lacked human touch, they said it showed no regard for personal relationships in its capital operations, they said it didn’t like women or men, it only liked power…
How could such a person be good at speaking?
I swallowed my saliva and saw the dark desire in his eyes, like a dark cloud pressing down, like towering waves.
“No… I didn’t.”

Just as the words were about to come out, he suddenly lowered his head, silencing the words that were about to follow me.

He kissed with great restraint, as if the palm of his hand was the most precious treasure in the world. Whenever he
couldn’t resist, he would stop with his lips touching hers, and then peck again and again.
I was not a person without emotions.
A person standing at the top of power would smile and put on an apron, washing our hands and making soup for our family of three.
I would plant my favorite plants in the yard, arrange them in the way I liked, and accompany me to drink coffee.
I would patiently play with the children, tell them stories, and pretend to be their father, meeting their needs without getting tired.
He never spoke of love in everything he did, yet everything he did was love.
I started to kiss.
For a moment, it seemed as if there was a Mars explosion, and the string called “restraint” suddenly broke, and emotions and desires surged and surged.
From the corridor to my room.
He held me and we kept on kissing and kissing…
“Can I? Can I?”

The waves receded far away and then hurriedly rolled back, repeating this cycle endlessly.
Brenton, like an insatiable beast, pressed against me again and again.
I started to believe the rumor that Brenton didn’t love men or women. Anyone who was brought to his bed, regardless of their gender, was thrown out of the room by him.
He loved only me, as long as I was there.
When we met again, he never mentioned the past until this moment, when his voice was buried in my neck.
“The biggest regret of my life is that, at that time, I wasn’t in Newbarrow when such a big thing happened to you. I wasn’t by your side…”
At that time, because Antonio saved me, he took me home and I fell in love with him.

The next day, when I woke up, Brenton had one hand resting on my waist, sleeping soundly.
I moved his hand away, got up quietly, and went to the kitchen to prepare breakfast for four people.
I was planning to make a sandwich while frying an egg.
I heard hurried footsteps and turned to see Brenton, only

wearing a bath towel, running barefoot down from upstairs.
He held me tightly in his arms.
“Melina!”
His voice was not loud, every sound seemed to resonate from his chest, carrying a sense of fear.
This was the Brenton I had never seen before, so fragile that it
made one’s heart ache.
“I was here, what happened to you?”
“Waking up without seeing you, afraid that last night was just another dream…”
His arms were still closing in.
I noticed the word “again” that he used.
“Did you used to dream often before?”
“Well, I dreamt about our childhood and woke up only to realize that you were no longer here.”
I remembered back when we were backstage at the concert hall, he stood behind me, calling out “Grace” so cautiously, afraid that if he spoke too loudly, the dream would shatter.
“I was there,” I turned my head and kissed him, “I was there.”
His emotions gradually stabilized.
I bared my little sharp teeth and fiercely bit into his mouth.
The smell of blood spread.

His tongue rolled, gripping my waist, kissing even more fiercely.
