Falling for My Contractual Wife

Vivian looked up at Carson with a sense of eager anticipation and said, "I still prefer lying down." "Okay, don't move," Carson said. "I'll flatten the bed a bit. Sleep in my arms."noveldrama

Carson slowly flattened the bed. He held her shoulders and slowly put her into his arms.

She lay on her side, her cheek against his chest.

This position was even more intimate than before.

Vivian buried her face in his chest, smiling as she said, "We can sleep well now."

Carson's Adam's apple bobbed. "Yeah," he said.

He lowered his head to look at her fuzzy head and realized that she was really petite.

His nostrils were filled with her scent, making him unable to fall asleep at all.

Vivian, on the other hand, breathed calmly and evenly in no time, as if she had fallen asleep.

Carson felt terrible.

His body was so stiff that he did not dare to move. His heart melted utterly, and he wished he could merge with her.

After a while, the woman in his arms muttered as if she was dreaming.

"Carson..."

Carson was stunned. He lowered his head and leaned closer, wanting to hear what she said.

"Carson... don't, don't ignore me..."

When Carson heard her words clearly, his heart suddenly ached. He said softly, "Silly girl, how could I ever ignore you?"

Her voice gradually took on a hint of a sob. "Why don't you accept me... Why don't you have feelings for me... Why?"

His heart felt like it was being gripped by invisible hands. He stroked her hair and let out a sigh.

"Vivian, it's not that I don't accept you," Carson said. "I have feelings for you, more than you can imagine, but I only have a body that will give out at any time. How can I give you happiness? I can't even protect you."

As Carson spoke, he was filled with self-loathing. He said, "Vivian, I love you, but... I can't hold you up." Just then, the woman in his arms suddenly lifted her head. Propping herself up with her elbow on the bed, she looked at him with her upper body raised.

She said, "Hiss... What do you mean

by holding me up? Do you think that

by rejecting me and being

emotionally distant, you won't hold

me up anymore?" As she

Carson was stunned. When he saw her frown because of the pain, he quickly hugged her, saying, "Hurry

up and lie down. Don't cause further harm to the wound."

Vivian bit her lip, and her tears fell. "You heartless man," she said. "Do you know that your rejection hurts me far more deeply than this little wound?"

Carson frowned and called out helplessly, "Vivian..."

"You said you're holding me up,"

Vivian said. "Do you know then that your holding me up for five years will require me to take a lifetime if you want me to forget you? Don'Dyou think you are very selfish?"

Carson's eyes revealed an indescribable sense of sorrow. He said, "Vivian, but I..."

"No buts!" Vivian said. "So what if you're sick? If I had minded, I would have left five years ago!"

"Vivian," Carson said. He called her name and pulled her into his arms.

"I'm sorry," he continued. "I didn't expect that I would make you so sad. I'm sorry..."

Vivian punched him and said, "Is a mere apology sufficient to resolve the situation? If apologies could solve problems, why do people need the police?"

"I..." Carson fell silent.

He looked at her with his head lowered. Seeing her tear-streaked face, his Adam's apple bobbed. He then lowered his head to kiss her lips.

Vivian stood still and licked her lips in a daze.

This action made Carson feel a surge of passion He held her head and deepened the kiss.

Once one tasted love, one wouldn't be able to extricate oneself.
